Replaced hardrive on Mac with SSD - now can not open drawings
I have tried the following: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad-for-mac/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticle...
But It still tells me that the drawings needs to be verified. I really need to use the program now. Can someone help, please.

From your post I cannot be sure: are you able to launch AutoCAD and save newly created drawing?
If yes, what kind of alert you get when you open your old drawings? Please attach screenshot.

Hi maxim_K,
Thanx for the response. I do not want to talk to fast but it seems that I have managed to sort out the problem. I removed AutoCad again from my laptop, the one that was restored. Then I did a complete new download from Autodesk site. Installed it and opened a DWG that was on my mac. So to answer your question, I was not able to open drawings that was on my mac, old drawings. I did not try to just open Autocad and open a blank drawing. When I wanted to open an old drawing it said that the drawing needed to be authenticated (My wording might not be 100% correct) sorry did not take a screen shot. I wanted to take one now, but then it opened, hence the reason I say I think I have solved the problem.
I will update the post if I encounter an issue again later today.
Regards

Makes a huge difference, I would strongly recommend it. I installed a HD-SN500-750E Samsung (Evo Series)
