deleting photos with indicator

I am a new user of LR (migrated the PSE, I used intensively for 6 years).
My question: I have labeled pictures as REJECT and select for them and remove them. They are all part of a collection (a set within a collection).

When you try to delete, I get the message:

You can not delete photos directly from a set of collection.

Try to remove the photos from the collections inside this

set or remove photos in the Lightroom Catalog.

Any suggestions?

Tom

Tom,

First of all, you should know that deleting a picture while you are viewing a collection simply removes the photo of this collection, not in the catalog. (Unless you use Ctrl-Alt-Shift + Delete which totally get rid you of this image.) If you want to remove an image from LR, you must be in a folder.

As the message says, Lightroom will not allow you to delete a photo when you're looking at him within a defined Collection. A Collection is a set of collections. This photo may belong to several collections within the whole, if LR does not know which collection to remove it from. That is why the message offers you different choices to delete the file.

  • Photos with indicator does not show in the Smart Collection

    Hello

    I scored a few photos with the P key, and I want to show them (with the other creterias) in a smart collection. So I build a smart collection with the Pick flag is marked. But no pictures appear in my smart collection... Why?

    If I do the same thing with the rejected flag, they appear in the collection...

    Any idea? I have to check the consistency of the database or what?

    Thank you

    Yes, you have. The indicators are local non-smart Collections. Your smart collection will find only pictures that are selected in folders or other smart collections.

    This will change in the LR4, where the flags will be more local.

  • Photos with indicator not no projection in all of the main Collection

    I've set up a collection in LR, set several subsets below. However, for some reason, one of the sub sets does not show marked photos in all of the main collection. I see pictures with other sets of void indicator, and when I go on the individual games in the wandering sub defined the show of flags, but they are not 'communicate' to the whole collection, or even the game do.

    To better illustrate graphically:

    All of the main Collection
    Whole collection
    Pictures a
    Photos b
    Collection series B
    Photos 1
    Photos 2

    All photos marked in the series Collection B (Photos 1 and 2) occur when I filter flag in hand Collection Set, but none of the photos under Collection Set A flag are, i.e. pictures spotted in Photos collections and b pictures don't get shown when I click on hand Collection Set and filter to flag.

    In addition, even when I click on filter to flag and Collection Set A, it returns 0 photos.

    Something is strange here, and I can't understand it. Anyone has any ideas that can help?

    Wouldn't be easier to use signage, but something that spans folders and collections, such as stars or color labels.

    This is one of the consequences of the much loved/hated location of flags and one of the reasons why I don't use no flags at all.

    Awkward work around this problem, you can filter on the flags in the Sub-collection eachj, select all images, go to display all photographs and reapply the flags. "All photos" refers to the display of folders (and the collection smart view, seen together the collection) with respect to the signage goes.

    How much free space is a iPhone? Use the settings app to find out.

    Settings > General > storage > storage section is at the top.

    Did you remove photos from the film? If so, the photos transferred from the recently deleted album. They can remain there for 30 days allow for their recovery. But if you need to free up space on the iPhone you should remove again the album photos recently deleted.

  • Recover Deleted photos there is a month of a DVD - RW

    AccidentLly remove photos to a DVD - RW a month ago. Recovery co. and I tried to recover from the DVD and it tells me that there is no disc as E:\ is on.

    The photos have been put on the DVD about 5-6 months ago. Any chance of the hard drive recovery? After this period of time.

    Also I have a return upwards I think they are on, but I can't find them. I've never tried recover point a to the top, so I'm iliterate to this process.

    I'm running Vista Home Basic with Windows Live. The images were in Windows Live photo Gallery.

    Any help appreciated.

    Keith

    First... There is a possibility of potential recovery or
    all the files have been modified in Windows Live
    Photo Gallery.

    In Vista... WLPG archives the unreleased original
    versions at the following...

    C:\Users\\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\
    Windows Photo Gallery\Original Images.

    It may be a file hidden... change the following parameter
    If necessary:

    Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
    ... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

    -----

    Hard drive recovery...

    Hard drive recovery is highly doubtful after
    so long... the files would be more than likely
    replaced now.

    There are programs of software designed to recover the
    deleted files. The following freeware is an example...
    a Google search will find more.

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Recuva downloads (versions)
    http://www.Piriform.com/Recuva/builds

    Best bet would be a Portable version on a memory
    card or a Flash drive. (reduces the risk of crushing
    deleted files)

  • Why my email with indicator does not appear in my Inbox mailbox "tagged"?

    I don't know if it's a matter of iMac or a matter of BONES... it was happening until I upgraded to Sierra and used El Capitan.  The problem started about a month or two ago.

    I am able to email from flag that I want to keep at hand and my box (in the Favorites bar) shows 'spotted' by email that I have flagged 167 messages... but when I click on the Flagged mailbox on the sidebar, it is empty.  Although just after I upgraded to Sierra, with message indicator began to appear in the box to the letters of the sidebar, but now shows nothing.  I used to be able to click on a flag at the top of the Inbox of mail and it would show all of my email with an indicator, but with the new configuration, it's gone.

    Then someone can help me figure what to do to show my email with indicator, I would be happier.  It's really a pain to have to scroll through all the mail in my Inbox to find flagged messages.  I know I can do a search, but sometimes I do not remember what to look for!

    Someone please help!

    With Mail leave...

    Navigate to the folder of the user library. This folder is hidden by default. In the unhide: select the Finder in the Dock. Less go in the Menu bar > hold down the Option key and you will see the library.

    • Access to containers.  Drag the com.apple.mail desktop folder

    • Navigate to the Mail folder.

    Select the V4 > MailData folder.

    Delete all files in MailData with envelope in the name. (or 3)

    Open mail and it will re-index your files and create a new folder in containers. You can remove the container if you are satisfied with the results.

    BTW, are one of your POP accounts? If so, I suggest strongly convert you in IMAP.

  • Import Photos with Image Capture

    Hi people, I do not know if I am posting this in the right forum. If this isn't the case, feel free to have moved him.

    I did some research trying to help this user and also to learn.

    Import all pictures (including photos from iTunes backup) iPhone to mac

    I have a Mac and a PC but I use the PC for my main photo library. When I import pictures from my iPhone to the PC using the Import Wizard, Windows 10 maintains a cache to remember photos that have been previously imported so that they don't re - import. I can post the path to the cache but it is useless, the cache is a file system, called "PreviouslyAcquired.db".  If I remove photos from my PC which have been imported and you want then re - import, I have to reset this cache (delete) so that the photos to import again. Otherwise the photos already imported are ignored and only new ones appear on the Import Wizard.

    The reason for this post is that I wonder if OS X (Photos or Image Capture) retains the same type of cache. I also wonder if this is the reason why the OP on the wire above cannot re - import the photos that have been restored from their old iPhone.

    So my questions are:

    (1) with OS X Image Capture, can a photo to reimport previously imported?

    (2) no OS X maintains a similar to Windows cache and if so where is it and how it is reset? I looked on my MBP 10.11.5 but nothing helped. It is obviously not the iPod Photo Cache - that one is associated with iTunes synchronizes only. I also started the Image Capture, but cannot see any parameter for this purpose.

    (3) I.C. will give me the opportunity to re - import if it imported the same before pictures? I could make an experience, but the bright minds here probably know the answers.

    Any info appreciated...

    I have found no Apple documentation on it, but when I use the Image Capture to import from a camera or card in a folder in the Finder, I can import the same items over and over again. There is no control for imports carried out previously.

    Only when I import using a photo app that maintenance photo library (Photos, iPhoto, Aperture) pictures will be checked for duplicates when importing.  But even with Photos, iPhoto, Aperture can I restore deleted photos by import since the device again, if I removed them from the library.

  • How to recover permanently deleted photos iOS?

    Recently, I accidentally deleted photos of my camera and later permanently erased from the recently deleted folder and forget they were there. I only have backups iCloud. I don't have any iTunes ones. I tried the deletion and restoration of two backups. A for a few days and the other nearly two weeks ago. Two of them restore all photos of how they were after the pictures have been permanently despite them being backups before the deletion took place. These photos are gone for good? It seems to me that they are. I thought for sure the backups restore them, but they did not. Any help would be appreciated. There are additional methods, I can try that I have not already? Thank you.

    If you have been synchronized with iCloud, using a computer, go to iCloud.com/Photos to see if they are there, but I doubt they will. Looks like they are gone for good.

  • Supprimer delete photos on iPhone, keep on mac using ICloud?

    Hello! How do I remove photos from my iPhone and always keep them on my mac? I use iCloud and have about 50 GB of Photos on my phone. My plan is bigger than that, but again, I don't want to have that many photos on my iPhone (but keep them on my mac). Is this possible? I tried to import on my Mac, but it doesn't show me all the pictures are on my phone. It shows me about 3000 instead of 11000... TIA

    Julievite g ' Day,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that you want to remove photos from your iPhone, but still keep the photos on your Mac. Use the article import pictures and videos from your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to import all the photos from your iPhone to your Mac, more specifically, this section:

    Import into your Mac.

    You can use Photos for OS X to import photos from your iOS device to your Mac without using iCloud photo library. This procedure also works for the import of images from digital cameras and SD cards.

    1. Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or digital camera to your Mac with a USB cable. If you use an SD card, insert it into the SD slot on your Mac, or connect using a card reader.
    2. You need to unlock your iOS device using your access code. You can also see a prompt on the device iOS asking you to Trust This Computer. Tap the confidence to continue.
    3. On your Mac, the Photos app automatically opens. If not, open the Photos app.
    4. The Photos app shows a screen of import with all photos and videos that can be found on the connected device. If the import screen does not automatically appear, click the Import tab at the top of the Photos app, or click on the name of the device in the sidebar of Photos.
    5. To import a selection of photos, click the ones you want, and then click Import selection. To import all new pictures, click Import all Photos again.
    6. Once the import is complete, a message asks if you want to delete or keep the photos on your device. Click on remove items to remove photos or click on keep items to keep them on the device.
      If you select keep items, you will need to remove them directly from your device when you want to remove.
    7. You can now disconnect your device from your Mac. If you imported photos from an SD card or USB, safely eject the device first device.

    Imported photos appear in the album last import of the Photos app.

    Photos and videos that sync you from your computer on your device iOS through iTunes can be imported to your computer.

    Know what to do If you can not import pictures from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer.

    Once you have made sure all the photos have been imported to your Mac, you can then safely remove them from your iPhone. The iPhone user guide has the steps to remove photos from your iPhone, in particular, this section:

    Delete a picture or video from pictures. Click on the Photos tab, tap the photo or video, press on , then press to remove the Photo or video delete. Deleted photos and videos are stored in the album recently deleted on iPhone, with a badge showing the remaining days until the item is permanently deleted from the iPhone. To permanently delete the photo or video before the days expire, tap the item, tap on delete, then remove the Photo or video delete. If you use iCloud photo library, deleted photos and videos are permanently removed from all your devices using iCloud photo library with the same Apple ID.

    See you soon!

  • Deleting photos and it goes to the trash

It works, but when I remove the pictures that he deleted but does ' t goes to the trash. Please help solve this problem. Thank you.

    What kind of library are automatically using, iPhoto or Photos.  The package of photo library in your pictures folder will look like this:

    If it's the library that you handle the here's what you need to do to remove a photo from the library and the hard drive (it won't to the trash in the Dock like in iPhoto):

    Remove Photos from a library of Photos 1.5

    1. regardless where you are in the library, i.e. Moments, collections, albums, smart albums or projects, select the photos you want to remove, use the command + delete keyboard shortcut to move the photos to the recently deleted smart album.

    2 - Click on the albums smart recently deleted in the sidebar.

    NOTE 1: If you use pictures 1.2 or earlier, use the option menu file ➙ show recently deleted .

    3. in the recently deleted album, you can opt to leave the photo automatically delete after the 30-day waiting period is in place, remove them immediately or restore them in the library.

    NOTE 2: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., the delete key only deletes the photo of this element.  There is no combination of keys that will remove a photo from a project and move directly to the recently deleted smart album.

    NOTE 3: removal of a photo of a moment or Collection (window pictures) or Photos of all window deletes ALL occurrences of this photo in the library.

  • Update to new IOS - now all the photos from iphoto to my macBook suddenly are also on my iphone5S - how to delete photos on my phone without deleting on the macbook?

    Hello dear, I need your help.

    I did yesterday an update to new IOS - now all the photos from iphoto to my MacBook are suddenly also on my iphone5S - how to delete photos on my phone without deleting on the macbook?

    They are very old photo from my childhood so I definitley them do not need on my phone, but on my MacBook, I want to keep them.

    Thank you very much for your support.

    Check the settings on your iPhone.  Have you enabled iCloud photo library in the settings > iCloud > Photos on your iPhone?  Or "my photo stream?

    If you have iCloud library active on your and your iPhone photos sync iCloud and from there will to all your devices.

    If you do not want to synchronize on your iPhone photos, clear the iCloud photo library, but do not allow to delete photos from iCloud, or they will be removed the Mac as well.  With the removal of your iPhone, wait until all iCloud photo options have been disabled.

  • Recover deleted photos - camera SD card

    I deleted photos of my DSLR Nikon SD card and copies lost during the transition from an old PC to Mac.  The camera shop said that using free software such as https://www.cardrescue.com/ will recover them.  I do not want to download anything which could conflict/damage my Mac and would be grateful if someone could share their knowledge with me.

    I use OS x Yosemite.

    Thank you.  Chris

    I've never used of CardRescue, but currently, it gets good reviews on CNET Download site.  Here are a few alternatives, you can consider:

    (1) If you have questions about the use of CardRescue after reviewing the information on your iMac you get here, you can ask your Apple dealer or a training center for help.

    (2) If you really want to be sure that CardRescue cannot cause you any problem, you can install it on your Mac "spare", try to recover your files with it and then erase CardRescue if you do not want to leave it on the computer.  If you encounter problems after using CardRescue, you can erase the disc of the CMA and reinstall OS X before you reuse this Mac.

    (3) use CardRescue on your Mac only, make a backup of the Mac. Then download and install CardRescue, use CardRescue to try your recovery image file, then do a full your backup restorebefore using your Mac. Although this approach will require a lot of time and effort, it allows you to use CardRescue without leaving any trace of it on your Mac.
