Reconnecting moved files

I had to move my photo files when I had to create a new profile. (My company changed networks and I had to do it.) Now all my pictures (about 2000 of them) are of course disconnected. Is there any way to reconnect them without doing it one by one for 2,000 photos?

"Reconnect" to what?

It’s not at all clear what you are referring to. What do you mean by "disconnected"? What program are you talking about?

He probably has shortcuts (‘aliasses’ if he uses a Mac) to these files, for example used by a catalog program. Because he moved the files, the shortcuts no longer point to the correct path…

Sorry. It’s Adobe Photoshop Album.

My work laptop had one profile, jferer. When my company switched server OS’s from Netware to Windows Server 2003, I had to (was instructed to) create a new profile, which became jferer.000. I had to move My Documents from jferer to jferer.000 . My Album catalog still expects to find all my photos in jferer instead of jferer.000, so every one of my photos is "lost." I’m seeking a way to reconnect my photos to my catalog without having to do it one at a time for 2,000 photos.

I’m sorry for the cryptic way I posed the question, being in a highly agitated po’d mood at the time. I’d be grateful for any way out of this mess.

Why can’t your company help in this matter? Just curious.

I am not familiar with Photoshop Album. Just trying to make a guessed suggestion, is there a way you can rename profile in Photoshop Album to your photoshop name? Have you looked in the "Help" file at all on this matter? I have used other cataloguing software and it was possible to point to new links when thinks were moved. I will download the trial version of Photoshop Album and see if I can figure it out for you.
