I just noticed today that when I backed up my LR catalog to another HD via Carbon Copy Cloner that the subfolders inside main folders are just a series of images without the segregation of the sub folders. Why?

somewhat unclear as to what you are referring to... the catalog itself does not contain photos, it's the LR database of all things done to photos that have been imported. Photos themselves are in what ever folder structure you've established.

I think the OP is using poor/incorrect terminology and that he's really referring to the photo folder, not the catalog.

OK correct, my photo folder has numerous subfolders and in the back up HD the subfolders don't exist, it's just the images.

I'd refer you to the maker of your backup software or the manual. the directory structure(s) and the enclosed images are nothing special and the software should have recreated the structure.

CCC does make exact duplicates of any file structure on a HD. Still think some important info here has not been provided. Maybe the best course of action is to startup up a dialog with the makers of CCC. BTW they are very helpful and want to make sure their app works for you.
