Photolibrary problem
I wanted to transfer my photos to my external drive. I copy and pasted the photolibrary file to the external drive folder. (ExFat format). The transfer took time, I can see the file in the external drive but I couldn't open it. I just wanted to try if it can copy the photos that way.. but to my surprise I don't see the photos in the original photolibrary location, but I still see the file that contains the exact amount of the photo file.. I didn't get to back up my photos thru time machine.. and also I couldnt see my external drive when i try to back up.. will the photolibrary repair fix my problem?
