Hi there!

I've been working in iMovie 10, importing .mp3 and .avi files from my external hard drive into iMovie.

I have 5 projects saved on my external hard drive (using this method of opening my external, saving projects to the external and then closing my external hard drive afterwards: http://eapl.org/sites/default/files/how-do-i/saving.pdf)

THE PROBLEM: the library I have created from my removable drive (step 4 in the above article "Moving an iMovie Project to your removable drive") is not recognizing any of events that were saved in that folder before the external hard drive was ejected. I can see these events, but only in the All Projects library. In the All Projects library, the .mp3 and .avi files from my external hard drive are not accessible. Black placeholders are there instead.

Any tips on how to access these events again?
