i copied photos on external hard drive "exporting catalog".  how set catalog in lightroom 3 recogize external hard drive can import , work directly on external drive or have create new folder?  want delete original raw photos , jpeg photos laptops hard drive clear space.  on appreciated!

i follow these steps:

  1. backup current catalog.

  3. create folder has new desired location, , copy @ least 1 picture (preferably not in catalog).
  4. open lightroom, , have find new location it's catalog. should work fine, haven't changed picture locations, yet.
  5. import photo put in new desired photo folder in step 3.
