How can I multiselect photos? Which key do I press?
Holding down the shift key no longer works to select multiple photos at one time. I've also tried the control key. How can I do this process without having to check each photo individually?
- 8 years agoYou're shift-clicking on the actual check boxes, and not the files themselves, correct? You can no longer click on the files. You have to use the check boxes.
If shift-clicking on the check box is not working, clear your browser's cache/browsing history and try again, or try another browser. - 8 years agoHey Debbie, if you're referring to photos as seen in the Photos page, then it isn't possible to select multiple photos using the Shift key.
The functionality is still possible from the normal 'My files' page.

Hi there Gusty600,
Currently, there’s no option to share individual photos/files at the same time. You can share each photo individually or share the folder that they are in.
However, I also wanted to mention that if you want to select multiple files using the mobile app, you can do so by following the steps below:
- Open your mobile app.
- Navigate to Files.
- Tap on the icon on the top right-hand corner of your screen which looks like a box with a check-mark.
- Select the photos you want.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
