Playing around I discovered this-see attachment.  Not an accurate duplication of my folders.  Ex: Lightroom folder shows "zero" images and images folder show only 25.

I'm not sure that the parent folder -PHOTO? is correct.  The name of the ext drive that conatins all of my images is named My Photos.

When i right click on PHOTOS? and choose FIND MISSING FOLDER it takes me to finder.  When I choose My Photos it shows all the folders as being active but when I expand a folder all the images are greyed out and cannot be opened.  However when i open the ext drive containing my images, all images can be opened.

This confirms to me that photos? is no good.

ok, when I right click on My Photos (see attachment) it takes me to the right place and all images can be opened but I can't figure out how to sync.  Right clicking doesn't give em that option.

I've moved this from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the LR forum so that proper help can be offered.
