DigiKam and darktable

I am trying migrate from LR to open source solutions. In first i like for Digikam for taging and managing files and Darktable for processing, but i am disesperated, all my photos are in an external hard drive and i cannot connect my folders from external device to Digikam. Teher is simple solution or i have to uninstalate the programs?

Are you using Linux, Mac, or Windows?

My photos are also on an external drive and I can see them from both digiKam and darktable.

I use Mac

You should navigate to /Volumes/<your disk name>/<your images folder/ and you should be able to see your images.
