More Transferring Projects to new Computer

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.

Files were all group relative before transferring and this was not changed when the files were transferred to the new machine (xover cable with file sharing).

However, the only way I can get the transferred Obj-c files to be recognized at build time is to use the Choose path.. button from Project -> Show Info on each file and reselect the group relative path (I guess reminding some record of the reference). The file reference info as displayed in the Show Info window does not change when I do this!

I cannot get the project to recognize anything in the English.lproj directory, regardless of the reference type. If I try to drill down into the directory to get at the main nib and proj info files I cannot get past English.lproj. The contents of English.lproj are not highlighted, hence not selectable.

A friend sent me a project which built and ran fine as does a simple project I have just created. It seems clear that something happened to the file references when I moved them to the new machine but I cannot sort it out. The PB Help menu talks about references but is not helpful with my problem.

The source computer is a G4 with 10.2.4 and December developer tools. The new computer is running the same OS and tools. Thanks again for any help.
