If disk allocation is showing the wrong location for the files... Change the location.

My issue is that the sessions I have saved on the USB drive will not open properly on the new system. All the tracks are there, but no wav. data visible or audible.
What dumb thing am I missing, apart from the data that is......
I have simply dragged the session files from the old to the new.

You would probably be better off doing this:
- Open the session in Pro Tools from the original USB location.
- Ensure that everything is there and that the session works as expected.
- From the Pro Tools menu, select File->Save Copy In...
- Ensure that the Session Parameters are the same
- In the "Items to Copy" section of the Save Session Copy dialog, select "All Audio Files" (and anything else that is relevant to the session)
- click OK
- Select your new firewire drive as the destination, check/correct the file name as you desire, and click "Save".
