How do I remove photos after importing?

I am very new to Lightroom 5.  I immediately imported all my photos from "Mu Pictures" and then learned from a tutorial that I could set up "naming" to be added as I imported.  How do I remove them so that I can re-import them with the naming feature set up?

Go to the Catalog tab at the top of the left hand panel and click on All Photographs.
Press Ctrl+A to select all and then hit delete.
Just remove from catalog and not from disk.

  • How do I rename photos after import?

    I tried the filenaming template and direct input into metadata. Lightroom displays a message that the file name cannot be renamed_but no explanation is given. What am I missing?

    Perhaps (this is a guess) Lightroom does not have write permission for the folder where these photos are located.

  • How do i remove a last import pictures without importing more photos?

    How do i remove photos from a last import, i cant delete it off my iphone4s and i cant do anymore imports!

    There is no way to import from an iPhoto Library to a Photos one. You can migrate an entire Library at one time, that's all. Otherwise your choice is to export from iPhoto to the Finder, thereafter import to Photos.

  • How do you save photos from import or Photo Stream to an album?

    How do you save photos from import or photo stream to an album?  I have a MacBook Air (which keeps telling me my start-up disk is full) and I am trying to organize photos so there aren't duplicates and triples.  I have photos in events, last import, photos and albums....I feel like they are all taking up space.  If I move a photo from photo stream to an album, then delete the photo from photo steam its deleted from the album.  That doesn't make sense to me.  There should be a way to clean up photo stream, and events, and last import by putting photos into albums.  Even more bizarre; I imported photos from my 4S, and only a fraction of them transferred over. 
    I am completely lost.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you!

    and I am trying to organize photos so there aren't duplicates and triples.  I have photos in events, last import, photos and albums....I feel like they are all taking up space.
    Sarah,
    Only the photos you are seeing in the events and the Photo Stream will take up space. iPhoto stores each photo only one. After you import it, it will be assigned to one event.
    Then you can use it in many albums and projects. Using the photo this way will only reference the one single copy of the photo in the event. The albums don't store the photos and do not require additional space. If you delete a photo from an event, it will be removed from all albums that have been using the this photos.
    What you are seing are not actually duplicate photos but different ways to access the same photos.
    The "Last event" is the same event as the last one you imported. It is there for a quick access to your recently imported photos.  Photos is a quick access to all photos in your library as an endless stream of photos. These are also no duplicates.
    So if you want to save space and delete photos, do that by browsing your events. Deleting a photo from an event will delete the original image file and remove the photo from all albums, books, and other products. You have only duplicate photos, if you are seing the same photo twice in an event.
    Even more bizarre; I imported photos from my 4S, and only a fraction of them transferred over.
    That is a different problem, but it may be related to to fact that you need to free space.
    If you get a warning, that the system needs space, don't do anything but update the backup of your mac and move files to an external disk to free space.
    It is not save to keep working, when the system is running out of space.
    How much free space do you have? Anything below 15GB free space is really critical.

  • I've lost the ability to imessage a photo after importing

    Does anyone know how to restore ability to immesage a photo after importing using camera connect?

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    <b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
    *You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    *''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

  • I have the Dropbox App on my iPhone 5.  I don't need all of the photos, and my Dropbox is full.  How do I remove photos and, where do I move them to on my computer?

    I have the Dropbox App on my iPhone 5, for my photos.  I don't need all of the photos to be on my phone, and my Dropbox is full.  How do I remove photos and, where do I move them to on my computer?

    If you have DropBox installed on your computer, you should already have those images in a folder corresponding to the cloud folder structure. Simply copy the from there to any folder you wish them to be in.
    And, if you delete them from the dropbox folder, then sync dropbox, they will be removed from all of your devices.
    You might want to login to dropbox and have a look at the instructional tours.

    or click on Getting Started after loggin in.

  • I can no longer rotate photos after importing them.

    I can no longer rotate photos after importing them.  This option was available before they last update.

    There is another current discussion about this going on. I copied it and pasted the answer here.
    "Your functionallity is on an IPAD 2.  This forum is refering to an IPAD 1!
    I spoke to Apple technical support and they concur.
    The feature was available on IOS 4.3 and was removed in IOS 5.
    They directed me to 3rd Party Software.  I told them this is not an anwser since I have 100's of picture which must be loaded in the the 3rd Party Software Rotated individually and saved back into the Save Folder.
    They said if they have enough compliants it will be fixed in the next rev."

  • HT4847 How do i remove photos from i cloud without losing them all together.

    How do i remove photos from i cloud without losing them all togther.

    I'm assuming you mean photo stream, since photos are not stored in icloud except for backups IF photos are set to be included in backups - and you can't remove photos from a backup after the fact.
    Photo stream is a conduit for copying photos from one device to another - it is not designed to store photos long term (photo steam only keeps the photos for 30 days and only up to 1000 of them).
    When photos are downloaded to a computer (always sync photos from an iOS device to a computer for archiving one way or another, photo stream is one such way), you should always move photos from the photo stream folder/album to a permanent location.  Once moved, you can then delete them from the stream.

    If you mean from photo stream, open your My Photo Stream album, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to delete, tap Delete.  This deletes them from photo stream and from any devices syncing with your photo stream.
    If you want to delete them all, you can go to icloud.com, sign into your iCloud account, click on your name at the top, click on Advanced, then tap Reset Photo Stream.

  • HOW do i remove photos from iPhone to make more space

    how do i remove photos and movies from Iphone to make more space

    You can delete photos that you have taken with the phone by highlighting them and tapping delete.
    If these are photos synced from a photo library (like iPhoto Library), those photos cannot be deleted from your photos app. Those must be removed by the photo library or "un"synced from your phone. I don't know why this decision was made by Apple, but that is something you have to do from the computer.
