Is there a way to delete more then 1 file at a time?

I inserted a CD from a friend of mine, it was suppose to be my wedding photo's. It was not.....it downloaded automatically all the contents of the CD into my photo's and there was over a thousand images entered.
I believe this is why my I Photo is not opening. I need to first delete these images, then i will run the test to see if it corrupted my I Photo.
But doing this one at a time has become a lengthy process. I have tried highlighting them, but still it only allows to me move to trash one at a time.
Thank you,
Suzanne 

If you are running Time Machine then the iPhoto library should be backed up - store instructions are near the end of this article - Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support
If you do not have a backup then you have made a mess of things and with no backup you have no way to totally recover
If you have no backup try to rebuild although it is not likely to work completely - maybe not at all - Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

  • Is there a way to pair more then one set wireless head phones to either a iphone or ipad with the blue tooth?

    Is there a way to pair more then one set wireless head phones to either a iphone or ipad with the blue tooth?

    Yes. I have two different Bluetooth headsets and they are both paired to my iPhone so I can use either one but only one can be used at any one time.
    To pair the second one, simply repeat the pairing process that you used for the first one.

  • Is there any way to send more then 1 parameter to the listener function?

    Hi guys, so is there any way to send more then 1 parameter to the listener function?

    Hi,
    sure.
    The first variant is to add many parameters to event.
    The second variant is to extend calling callback functions.
    For example,
    public function addCallBack(eventName:String, callBack:Function = null, ... rest):void
         // save callBack function and event type and other args (rest)
         addEventListener(eventName, myHandler);
    private function myHandler(event:Event):void
         // get function and args by eventName
         fnc.apply(null, [event, args]);

  • I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    I accidentally deleted my media files from iTunes and Trash when I was trying to move the files to an external hard drive. Is there a way to restore the media files from a Time Machine backup or from iTunes Match? What are the steps to do this?

    If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
    All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
    Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
    If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
    On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
    Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

  • Is there a way to delete multiple pictures at the same time from the iphone4s?

    Is there a way to deleter multiple pictures at the same time, from my iphone4s? I know how to delete one at a time. Thanks

    Open your Photos App > Camera Roll > At the top right corner you will see a rectangle with a right arrow, select that. Now you can select as many photos as you want and you can hit the red Delete button on the bottom right.

  • Is there a way to delete more than one message at a time

    on my iPhone 6 I can hit the edit link in messages and easily and quickly delete lots of messages at a time.  on my iMac it seems you have to delete one message at a time, which takes a lot more time........isn't there a way to delete messages in bulk in Yosemite messages?

    Hi,
    A single Bubble is a single Message or iMessages depending on the account it is with.
    A single bubble can be highlighted then the Backspace/Delete key used.  (the greys in this pic hardly differ to tell though)
    A whole chat/Conversation (Apple calls iMessages connections "conversations" and other connection have always been "Chats" since iChat 1) can be deleted by mousing over the chat in the list and using the x icon that appears without having to bring that one to the "front" or top.

  • Mac Book Pro 13" LPTP-Photo Booth Recorded Video File won't find my video/movie that I recently recorded from Sun 9-1-13. Is there a way I can retrieve the files under the Time Machine or will I need to download something for iPhoto Booth?

    I have been having the most difficult times with the use of iPhoto Booth for recording movie files of church services. It seems if I make a rename on the files, for some odd reason, I cannot find it in any of my Files Folders in Finder. I need to know is there a more simple way to retrieve movie files thru iPhoto Booth or is there something I may can download to fix this issue? Also, is there a way the videos can be flipped around to not a mirror image, but to a reverse camera? Please anyone who recognizes this problem, contact me ASAP. Thank you for your support!

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • Is there a way to delete more than one layer at a time?

    As you would with regular files. I can't seem to highlight more than one layer at a time. I also tried linking the layers to be deleted but that didn't work either. Am I trying to do the impossible?

    Try;
    V+backspace then enter.
    On photoshop elements 1,2 and 3 this deletes only
    the layer that is selected, not the layers linked to it.
    On photoshop elements 4,5,6,7 and 8 this deletes the
    selected layer or layers.

  • Is there any way to delete more than one email from the iPhone at a time?

    What if I know I've read everything already online - can I press my Mail icon and instead of opening & deleting one by one, can't I delete everything in my Mail that's there? THANKS!

    Use the edit button, then select all messages you want to delete, and press "Delete" button. You still have to select one by one, but you'd have to do it anyway.

  • Is there a way to delete more than one email at a time in the inbox. Also, how do I delete all the mail in the "delete" subfolder?

    I did found an answer for deleting inbox emails using the "shift" key but it is a slow process, as I have 8k emails. I find that they all go into the "delete" folder of which I have to go through the same process as stated above to permanently delete them. The "trash" folder I can right click on it and select "empty trash" and it is all gone. This feature is not available for the "delete" folder. Has anyone found an easy way to empty the "delete" folder?

    ctrl+a will select all emails currently shown. In delete folder just select mails using ctrl+a and delete them using delete button on your keyboard, or from context menu.

  • Problems with linking iPhoto to external drive files

    In order to back up my iphoto albums, I mistakenly put the original files on an external drive rather than dragging the iphoto icon to the external drive.  Now I cannot directly open those files located on the external drive from iPhoto on my laptop.
