Moved folder synced to Catalog and can’t find Metadata.

FirstName LastName
  • Edited

I am using a general Capture One Catalog for all my shoots, saved in a separate folder by Country/City/date, and synchronized to the catalog in question, but I recently relocated some files (also edited ones) and I lost all the adjustments to these photos.

Where are can I find the folder with the metadata to the adjustments so I can either move them or synchronize them to apply them again to the moved photos?

    • How many image files?
    • Complete folders or individual files?
    • Metadata or image adjustments?
    • XMP sync enabled?

     Metadata and image adjustments are in the catalog only (Metadata are in xmp files too, IF you have this up.)

    Either move the images back on the file ssystem, or use the locate function in C1 library tool.

    Sebastian,

    When moving image files, do it using Capture One library only, otherwise Capture One loses the path and can't retrieve adjustments.

    BeO,

    • 12 folders, but only had edited pictures in one of them.
    • Mostly worried about image adjustments.
    • XMP sync not enabled.

    I already moved the folders back and synchronized them in the Catalog, but the adjustments are still lost...

    Sorry, no other idea.

    I also think, these adjustments are lost - unless you have a recent backup of your catalog.

    In the future, you CAN move folders from the file system but you SHOULD NOT use "synchronize" but "locate" missing folders.
