It may start out collapsed, like mine below. If so, click where it says \u201cFilter:\u201d (green box ) to expand it so that you can see stars, flags, etc. To see just your picks, unflagged photos, or rejects, click on that flag in the filter bar.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What does reject mean in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s Tuesday, and that means it&#8217;s time for another installment in my new video series called \u201cLightroom in 60-Seconds.\u201d This one&#8217;s on tagging &#8216;Rejects&#8217; (photos that are just plain bad, out of focus, or otherwise messed up) and making them all go away, really fast, and all at once.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can you hide rejected photos in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The key thing to understand is that all images have a flag status, which means if you click on the flagged and unflagged icons, it will show these images and, crucially, hide the rejects.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I reject multiple photos in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Make sure you&#8217;ve selected in the bottom row all of the photos you want to delete and then with them there in the viewer you can hit &#8220;x&#8221; and it&#8217;ll flag them all as rejected. Then you can right click on the photos and you&#8217;ll see the option to &#8220;remove photos.&#8221; This should do it for ya.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why are my deleted photos still showing in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>In Lightroom, select All Synced Photographs in the Catalog panel in the Library module. Select all the photos in this group that are not currently part of a synced collection. These images are the ones that you&#8217;ve deleted from Lightroom mobile, but that are still showing as synced in Lightroom.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where are my flagged photos in Lightroom?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To do this, press down the &#8216;CTRL&#8217; or Command key and then press all the images one by one. Once you have selected all the images, right-click on any of the selected images and navigate to Set Flag > Flagged or Set Flag > Rejected as per your requirement. This will flag all the images you selected at once.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I clean up my Lightroom library?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The keyboard combination to Delete Rejected Photos on a Mac is Command + Delete, and on a PC is Control + Backspace. Click whichever is pertinent. Lightroom will ask you to confirm (Figure 2). Click Delete from Disc to permanently delete the images from your computer as well to remove them from your Lightroom Catalog.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is my Lightroom library so big?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>This file can get quite big if you use the Lightroom desktop app as it stores your photo files in this file before it uploads them to Adobe&#8217;s servers. It deletes the photo files after they have been uploaded, which then reduces the Catalog size.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is my Lightroom storage full?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you subscribe to an Adobe Creative Cloud plan, you get a quota of cloud storage. Lightroom uses this storage to store full versions of the image files you import into your catalog. Depending on your Creative Cloud plan, you might have 20GB, 100GB or 1TB of cloud storage.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I delete a rejected photo in Lightroom 2021?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;ve flagged (rejected) all the images you want to delete, hit Command + Delete (Ctrl + Backspace on a PC) on your keyboard.
