I cannot add pictures to my Picture It 9 library. All of my pictures from
Windows XP were in the library but now only half of them are there.

Also, is Picture It 9 still being used by MSN for pictures. I cannot find
any support for this product anywhere on Microsoft website.

Thanks

Have the original files been deleted?

Sorry, I have no info on MSN.

John,

No, the picture files have not been deleted. They are still in the "My
Pictures" Folder on Windows XP. In the Picture It 9 Library, the pictures
are listed in the same alphabetical order as in the "My Pictures" file but
they just stop at the "D's". No folders past the letter "D" are show in the
Picture It 9 LIbrary.

My only suggestion would be to rename or delete
your Library database. This will revert the Library
to it's original configuration and you can try to
catalog your files once again. If this does not help,
I don't know what else to try.

Try renaming Pictures.pod to Pictures.OLD. When
you re-open the Library, it should create a new
Pictures.pod file and maybe you can begin
re-cataloging your image files.

Maybe the following info will be useful:

How to find the Database for MS Digital Image Library.
========================================
If you have lots of images cataloged, it would be a
good idea to backup the "Pictures.pod" file on a CD...

Each user's database is located in their Application
Data directory (typically C:\Documents and Settings\
<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\POD). The
database is named Pictures.pod by default (though
if a database corruption has occurred, then we will
create new files with incremented names in that same
location).

The user's Application Data directory is a hidden
directory, so users will have to turn on "show hidden
files" in order to see the directory in Explorer. The
actual location of the directory is also stored by the
system in the %APPDATA% environment variable,
so you can get to the folder by going to Start/Run and
typing:

"%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Pod" (without the quotes)
