If different operating system users mount the affected network folder and a user places an external drawing or a hotlink from this folder, then other users will experience that these drawings and hotlinks are missing. Cause There were significant changes in the mounted drives handling on OS X El Capitan comparing to Yosemite and earlier versions of OS X. With PMK files ARCHICAD also presents a 'Cannot open file' warning message. From this point Relink/Update doesn't work, the external file remains missing. Issue External drawings and hotlinks - which are stored on a mounted drive - are missing from the project and cannot be relinked or updated (solo and teamwork projects are also affected) if at least one user modifies the affected project with OS X El Capitan. NOTE: Fixed in ARCHICAD 18 Update Build 8004 and ARCHICAD 19 Update Build 5005. Known issues Missing drawings and hotlinks Affected versions: 19 or older | Severity: workaround applicable| ID: 200890 If migrating to a new computer please see Transferring data between computers with Apple's Migration Assistant topic of this article below.
