RE: restoring image catagorys

Hi, Ned

Categories and the image assignments are part of your database.
If you have the categories, the assignments will also be there.

The only thing I can image is that you made the following mistake:

After opening the database on the new computer, IMatch correctly flagged all
folders as off-line (because they are on a new system).

Now, instead of using the "Relocate" command to tell IMatch that the folders
have moved you did a rescan on the folders, thus removing the old images from
your database and hence also the category assignments.

Solution:

Restore your backup database again and use the Relocate command to update the
database with the new system. See the IMatch FAQ for more information:

I reinstalled imatch on a different computer. I have all my images and my
category list intact. However none of my images are in the category's they were
previously assigned to. How do I get this information back? I do have the imatch
database backup and a copy of the imatch folder so I am sure the information
exists.
