Moving a CS5 Premiere Project from PC to Mac... at DVinfo.net

...and having very little success.
I need to move a project from a PC CS5 to a Mac CS5, but the links do not work. They show up as broken.
We moved all the assets and the project file over, and that did not work.
Then we used the built in project moving feature (the name of it escapes me, but it moves all the necessary files and assests over in one process) and that did not work either.

Please point me in the right direction because this project is already overdue, and I need to get this wrapped up.

Thanks in advance for the insight.

The links will always be broken when moving from PC to Mac due to different filesystems that they all use. You will have to relink.
