Lightroom Wants to Delete My Photo

I've been using lightroom for a couple of years now - love the program. Sometimes I get an issue where a popup asks me to confirm that I wish to delete a file. The trouble is, I haven't gone anywhere near the delete key! Usually this happens when I'm pressing shortcut keys, such as D for develop, then R not long after to crop the image. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
(Lightroom 3.6, but it did it wtih 3.5 also)

Get a print-screen next time it happens and post it. Also, try to figure which shortcut it invokes.

    If you have copied them to your computer, then you will be OK.  Just deselect the photos when you sync.

    How do I reorganize my photos on iPad 2?  I need to move (not copy) photos from one album to another.  When I use the copy function to another album, and then try to delete an image from the original album, the system wants to delete the photos from all albums.  Please help.

    You can't do it directly on the iPad - the new album functionality basically only allows you to copy photos into those new albums, you can't move them. The way that I think of it as working is that you are just creating pointers to the photos in those new albums, so if you then delete the original photo on the iPad you therefore automatically delete all the pointers to it.
    If you want to re-organise your albums then you will need to do it on your computer and then sync those albums over to the iPad

    If they were synced to your phone, they can only be removed by syncing them off with iTunes.  Create an empty folder on the computer you normally sync your phone with.  Then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the photos tab and select to sync the empty folder you created earler.  Then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  This will remove any photos on your phone that were synced to it from a computer.

  • I want to delete some photos of the user pictures. Where can I find them?

    I want to delete some photos of the user pictures. Where can I find them?
    I mean those pictures, which come on when clicking on the user-picture, here "latest".

    Unfortunately I don't speak German.
    Go back to Recents (Letzte), select a picture, and then hit the delete key. Delete all that you want to. At this point the 'Done' button will be grayed out.
    Click the Show All button at the top left.
    Then go back to see if the user pictures were removed. It worked for me.

  • HT201302 I have Windows XP laptop. Can I get the photos Saved on the iPad1 iOS4.3 from emails and websites etc. Onto my laptop as backup or in case I want to delete the photos from the iPad?

    I have Windows XP laptop. Can I get the photos Saved on the iPad1 iOS4.3 from emails and websites etc. Onto my laptop as backup or in case I want to delete the photos from the iPad?
    It never seems to synch fully with the laptop?

    Ivon, when you are satisfied that you have successfully imported the new folders to the iPad you can go back (as I have described above) and delete the originals of those you copied out in order to avoid 'duplication' and also save space.
    The method I have described also has advantages over creating new albums within the Photos app on the iPad since it 'duplicates' the photos and only permits the deletion of all so called copies. King_Penguin is correct when he states you can copy out photos originally taken with the iPad etc.

  • Using lightroom 5 to delete unwanted photos

    I have LR5 locating photos on each hard drive.
    I know how to select and import INTO Lightroom
    What I would like is to be able to delete the images I don't want from with Lightroom.
    Is this possible?
    Also a Best Practices question:
    Should I put all photos on a server and have one catalog on it that all computers point to? Seems to be best to consolidate, but don't know if that's the most efficient way to do it.
    Thanks

    Another approach is to go through your images, and when one that you want to delete is the highlighted file, you can type the letter "X" and that will mark that image as being rejected.  After you have gone through a batch of images you can press Ctrl (or Cmd - Mac) + backspace and all images that have been rejected will be displayed.  Then you can choose to remove or delete all the images at once.

  • I want to delete icam photos stored on iphone 4s

    I have 2,500 icam images stored on my 4s, and now they have been streamed to iCloud!  I don't want to delete each snapshot that makes the videos, but want to get rid of these images that are eating up my iCloud storage, and 4s storage.  I deleted  iStream from iCloud, but I am sure the next auto sync will reload them.  How do I delete the iCam photo album from my phone and iCloud without turning off all the benefits of iCloud backup?

    iCam? What is this? Is a app on apple store?
    The iCloud save you document and if you save the first time the pictures is ok!
    If you delete this pictures after and you have a backup on iCloud you lose them(I think)! :((

  • When working in iPhoto I kept getting a dialog box that asked if I wanted to delete the photo.  I checked the little box that said do not show this again.  Well, I want to get this warning box back but I don't know where to find it.

    Hi I was organizing pictures in iphoto.  I am new at this.  I was deleting a bunch of duplicate pictures and I kept getting a 'warning box" that kept asking "are you sure you want to delete?"  I knew I wanted to delete all these pics so I checked the box that said "check box if you dont want to see this warning."  So checked the box.  Now I want to get that warning box back.  Any ideas?  I can't find anything on the internet or manuals.  thanks

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • I have an external hard drive connected to my iMac 2006; the OS on this iMac has been upgraded.  I wanted to have back up copies of all our photos on iPhoto; I moved the iPhoto Library folder to the EHD.  Now I want to delete a lot of the photos on the iM

    I want to delete the photos on the iMac's hard drive but I want all the copies on the EHD; to free up space on the iMac.  I experimented by deleting one photo in the iPhoto library on iMac but when I checked the EHD, it was deleted there, too.  How can I delete photos from iMac w/out deleting from EHD?

    Photo Library icon that sits on my desktop
    Do a Get Info in the Finder on that, is it an Alias pointing to the external drive?
    Open the iPhoto Library folder on your actual internal drive in the Finder, is that deleed pic stil there?

  • HT204022 I want to delete photo stream with deleting my other albums.Is it possible?

    I want to delete my photo stream but I'm worries it would delete all my other photos.

    Resetting photostream has nothing to do with your locally stored photos.

  • Lightroom catalog full with no photos deleted photos hard drive

    I deleted photos from my hard drive but the catalog I created in Lightoom still has over 50mb in it but the photos are gone.  can I open this file somehow to see if I can extract any previews I created in lightroom before I deleted the photos by accident and can't get them out the trash?

    Photos are not stored in Lightroom, so you can't get them from Lightroom.
    Your best solutions are, in order:
    Recover photos from trash
    Restore photos from backup copies ... you do make backups of your photos, don't you?
    Use an "undelete utility" program to undelete the photos
    Recover previews from Lightroom ... these will be lower resolution than your original photos, and will be JPGs ... how much lower resolution depends on what options you chose regarding creating previews

  • IPhoto doesn't ask if I want to delete photos from my camera

    I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and then to iLife '09. I just imported photos from my camera. I clicked "Import All" and it did that, but it didn't ask me whether I wanted to delete the photos after importing, so I had to delete them one by one on my camera. Does anyone know why it's not asking me this?

    Well as I said it's been reported in both iPhoto and Aperture, which pretty much rules out a "bug" in iPhoto, don't you think? And given the reported incidence of the issue (I've seen three) it would be a pretty esoteric "bug".
    And what is "repair permissions"?

    If that fails, try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
