A library on my hard drive became corrupted, so I over-wrote it from an external hard drive. When I now access the library on my hard drive, many of the images are vertical, and cannot be rotated other than one at a time. Ideas to correct this?

I'd try the usual trouble-shooting steps, particularly "Repair". Let us know how this goes.
My bad & my apologies.
I tried the "repair" and that did not work. Any more ideas?
Rebuild.
What was the relationship between the now-corrupted Library and the one on your external drive?
What do mean by "I overwrote ... "? What exactly did you do?

I did a "rebuild" and that did not change anything. The problem still exists.
The library on my external hard drive is complete in every way. What I did was copy it back to the appropriate folder on my hard drive. The result is the "problem" library.
You had already done "Repair" and "Rebuild"? These usually takes scores of minutes or hours.
Does the Library on your external drive work from the external drive? Navigate to it in Finder and double-click the name.
If it does, delete the problem Library, empty the System Trash, reboot, Verify your system disk using Disk Utility (and might as well repair permissions while you're at it), reboot, test the external drive Library once more to confirm it works properly, then close it and copy the Library to your system drive. When the copying is done, double-click the Library (now on the system drive) and see what you get.
Thanks - I'll get back when all is done
Thank you, thank you. All is well again.
Glad it's all sorted.
