User C-E dictionary entries all show "The dictionary or entry that this card links to appears to be missing or unavailable." message.

Hello everyone,

I ran into this issue after migating my data to a new phone (Galaxy S25, Android 15).

I did create a new user using the exported dict file (Manage Dictionaries -> Add user), which used to function alright when I did migration previously.
Now the new user is created and the User C-E dictionary is populated as expected, but the corresponding card entries are not mapped ("The dictionary or entry that this card links to appears to be missing or unavailable.").
Manually performing a batch command on those user created cards has no effect. Converting all to user dict does not do a thing either.
Does anyone have an advice?

Thanks in advance!

Sorry about that. Did you transfer the user dictionary by creating a new dictionary and importing the old entries from a text file? That would not preserve the links from cards - to get those, you'd need to backup the database (via its screen in Manage Dictionaries) and then load it (via Add User / Load Existing).

If that's not possible, you should be able to use the batch 'remap' command to remap them to your user dictionary.

Thank you for the fast response.
I created the User C-E dictionary the standard way through manage dictionaries and backup, so the content was not broken up into a text file.
Thank you for the advice, but curiously the batch remap function does not have an effect at all (there is no alert, though).
I'll keep trying.
