Default Upgraded to 10 & can't get old files!

I just upgraded my computer to Mac Pro tower & Pro Tools 10 - all at the same time. I moved all of my working files onto my 500 gig external hard drive in order to transfer them. The problem is Pro Tools 10 can't find all the audio files ... I've tried to relink but it is still missing key files. Can anyone offer advice?
Thanks!
Jim

First: stop messing with PT and go outside and enjoy where you live!! Been there and it's great!!!

Second: Chances are when you "dragged and dropped" your session to the external drive, they were referring to files that were NOT in the audio files folder. The better way to do transfers like this (safer anyway) is to use the "Save Session Copy" command and check the All Audio box. This will ensure, that even if an audio file is in your Documents folder for example, PT will recopy it to the new destination.

Hope this helps and makes sense.
