Sometime I need to open the Library to check something, or re-export something, or to create a new cut from the old one.
If it's a small thing, I will not copy the whole folder back onto the working Raid, I just want to open it on the backup drive.
First I duplicate the Library, so to keep the old version as-is.

Then I open the duplicate, but when I do, the Media shows OFFLINE.
I need to Relink files to the actual location, i.e. the Media Folder (I have my media external) onto the backup drive:
- Select the Event containing the footage
- Go to: File / Relink Files
- Relink Missing, Locate All
- Select the first File in the list that match.
FCPX will check and recognize the candidates and ask you:
"Click Choose to verify matches for XXX of XXX files found."
Click Choose, and Bam! They're all relinked. Sweet.
