[QUOTE="imanidiot, post: 985681, member: 141120"] Yes, it is disgraceful... my old computer never used to display such shenanigans. That I know of. There are other weird things that go on but Big gulp of air as I attempt to explain. I'm not in iPhoto when I see all these images. I go to the HD and the window on the left has these headings: Devices Places Search For Under "Search For" are the headings All images All movies All documents When I click on "all images" on the left and it opens this huge file (I guess it's called.) iPhoto does not become active. (In fact, as an aside, many of these images are not even in iPhoto.) So yes, I drag each item into the regular trash. As I said, last night I dragged about 500 items in and watched the count go down, then I emptied the trash. At some point, the count just went back to the original. And I swear this morning some images I deleted were back, but in even greater numbers. I just had a sinking feeling as I had a flash to many horror/sci fi movies I've seen where the main character is trying to describe some unbelievable event and no one's buying it and the more she describes it the more paranoid and crazy she sounds.
