Moved Xcode folder to new computer, now TONS of files are missing

Question

You can only imagine how frustrated I am, trying to go through my old computer finding where all the resources are and putting them on the new one.

Please tell me how I can, next time, prevent this from happening. When I copy files into Xcode, I actually want to copy them in there. Not just use the file location.

Answer 1

When adding files to a project you'll get asked if Xcodeshould copy them. If you allow that, they are copied. otherwise consider using a version control system, that allows you to clone your project on another computer.
