i have my external hard drive working but want to move the catalog to that..i backed up my photos already but want to free up disk space . the adobe website support isnt working but it says you can some how move it...anyone know how? the back up just copies them but i think if i move the whole catalog it would be in the folders they are in now with the tags etc. Thanks
