I bought a new G4 and transferred all my development projects from the old 'home directory' to the new one using a crossover cable and file sharing.

None of the projects will build. A "Missing file or directory" error is thrown for each file in the project. Cleaning the project does not help.

If I create a totally new small project it builds and runs fine.

Any idea why my old projects will not build? Thanks for any help.

Take a look at the Info panel for each file - at the top is a drop-down list titled "Reference Style." The default is "Project Relative" - I'd be willing to bet that, at some point, it was changed for the missing files to "Absolute Path" instead.

To fix the path of the files that PB can't find, use the "Set Path..." button in the Info panel. You might want to reset them to the "Project Relative" reference style, as well, to keep them from breaking if you need to move the project folder again.
