How to import or convert Organizer Collections from Acrobat Pro 8 to Acrobat Pro 9...

I guess it should have been obvious...but after installing Acrobat 9 Pro...from version 8 Pro...all of my Organizer collections are not there at all. When looking under: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\9.0......
There is a file called: Organizer90.

Is there ANY way to import or convert acrobat 8 Organizer collections to acrobat 9????

This should have been obvious when upgrading. I even tried copying the directory from 8 into the same subdirectory as 9...but no luck.

PLEASE..help....desparate...I have numerous collections....there has to be some solution....I can't start over again....

If someone knows...please let me know....I even tried a repair install to no avail.

Thanks!

Check the following Edit --> Preferences --> Documents Category
"Remember files in Organizer History for ..."

What is selected from the pull-down?

Thanks lkassuba...

I have it set to 24 months.....like I had in version 8.

I even tried to copy the version 8 organizer directory into 9, but to no avail.

In version 9...the organizer directory seems to be a single file now, called "organizer90"....where was a directory in version 8...\organizer70, which I originally copied when I had version 7 installed.

I've been trying everything I can think of. I love the organizer....I numerous Collection Folders that I need to keep my pdf's organized.

I'd appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks :)
