Import problems from iPad to iMac

[Fima]

I am trying to import Raw files from my IPad to IMac. On import, my SHIFT plus CLICK to select ALL photos between first and last images does not work. I can only select ALL or NONE. If I select ALL, I need to unlcick about 2000 times to unselect the images I do not wish to import. Hope I make sence. Help! 

Mac on Catalina. IPad on latest iOS. Lightroom is latest Classic.

Quick question: are you importing through a connected iPad?

Have you tried option clicking?

I do not understand why do you need to import from the iPad to iMac?

If you have your iPad and iMac signed in to your account and Sync activated the files will sync automatically.

Just a thought if you have your iPad connect to your iMac I think it could be possible to copy the image files to a folder on your iMac and then import, however you will not get the edits you may have done to the images on the iPad.
