Do one of the following:

Uncheck All button

Check All button

To import all photos from the camera or card reader: Click the Check All button.
The checkboxes for all the photos in the Import browser are selected.

To import a subset of photos from the camera or card reader: Click the Uncheck All button to
clear the checkboxes for all photos, then select the checkboxes for the photos you want
to import.
You can also Shift-click adjacent photos and Command-click nonadjacent photos, and then
select the checkbox for one of the photos. Selecting a single checkbox selects the checkboxes
for all of the selected photos.
Note: Depending on your camera type, you may be able to double-click a thumbnail image
to see a larger version of the photo, if you want to verify its contents before importing it.
Double-click the photo again to return to the thumbnail image view.

6

Click the Import Checked button.

The import process begins and an indicator appears next to the project’s name, showing the
progress of the import. When the photos are imported, a dialog appears.

7

Click Eject Card, Erase Imported Items and Eject Card, or Done.

Note: The options offered in this dialog depend on the way your camera is made available when
it is connected. Some cameras connect as mass storage devices. When you import from these
cameras, the Erase and Eject options appear. Other cameras simply connect as cameras, and you
will not see either Erase or Eject after the import is completed. In that case, you can erase the
photos directly in the camera.

As the photos appear in the Browser, you can begin working with them. Photos may temporarily
appear as gray boxes until the loading process is complete.
