Apple Help Stories - Selecting Photos to Email

Learn how to select random photos in iPhoto

Not everyone likes keyboard shortcuts, until they want to do what E. wanted to do. She was emailing photos from iPhoto and wanted to select 6 or so from the 30 she had taken while on vacation. Holding Shift and clicking twice (Shift-click) selected a beginning and an end, a contiguous group of photos. Great, but how to select 6 non-adjacent photos to email?

The answer is: Command-click (or CMD-click).

Hold down CMD (next to the space bar) while you click on the various photos you wish to select. If you make a mistake, keep the CMD key down and click again because it works to de-select as well.

The Command key is very useful as you’ll see in future posts!
