When I initially attempted to begin using Lr, I was advised to set up 3 topic-based folders. These folders have about 110 photos in them. Since then, I've decided to use a date-based system. I created folders for years within Lr and managed to move about half of the photos into the correct year. However, when trying to move the remaining photos, I get a message that they can't be moved because, for example, "...the file already exists at the destination (1) Teddy & Friends...." . These photos do not show up in the year folder in Lr, so I assume this might be a folder I created on my Mac within the Photos app? I would like to get these photos out of the topic folder and into the year folder in Lr so I can delete the topic-based folders. That leads to the next questions: 1) how do I get these remaining photos to show up in Lr in the appropriate year, and, 2)how do I delete these unwanted folders once completely emptied, now that I plan to use the date-based system? Thank you.
