Question or Description of Problem: Ran into this problem and need your help: I shot images on my iPhone with bursts, forgot to clean up the files, so all images got imported into LR. To correct the problem, I delete all the images from LR, choosing Remove, which I think was my mistake because I should have deleted them from hard disk. I cleaned up the bursts in my phone, trying to import back only the chosen best images back into LR, titling them the same way. When I tried to move them into the same picture file, I got the warning that moving files on disk would cause the corresponding files on disk to be moved. When I clicked Move anyway, I was notified of an error copying files to the destination and was shown the list of files with the original names I was trying to move already existing at the destination. I believe to find and delete these files on the hard disk would correct the problem, but I don't have the confidence to proceed on my own. Any help would be greatly appreciated. (I have LR 5.7.)
