Hi Bernt,

M-x org-id-update-id-locations RET

should do the trick.  This only thin that can go wrong that it will  
miss a file.

It scans:

- agenda files and archives
- the files in org-id-extra-files
- all the files that are currently in the id list
- any live buffers visiting an org-mode file

So in case of doubt, load in all org-files and run the command.

This command will also run automatically if an id cannot be found -  
assuming that something has been moved behind org's back - which is  
just your case.

HTH
