Missing libraries - was: I need Help :(

So in school last year we learned a lot of ArchiCAD back in 16 and this year I wanted to put together a portfolio for prospective employers. We upgraded the computers and got Revit instead of ArchiCAD and really fast computers. I haven't learned Revit yet so my ArchiCAD is more impressive than anything else I have, but we got 17 installed instead of 16. When I went into my old files (from school in 17) all my objects like doors and windows and trees are gone. I figured it had something to do with that. So i decided to just do the Walk-through at home because I have 16 there. But when I opened it up the same thing happened. What do i do? It says that the ArchiCAD 16 library is missing but the same thing happened when I opened it at home.

There was a button as soon as you open the file asking you to consolidate the libraries
