How do I recover deleted photographs in Lightroom Mobile?

[garrodg54999599]

Hi

Any help would be gratefully received.

Yesterday I decided to try and sort out my library of photos in Lightroom on my ipad. BIG mistake.

I flagged the rejected photographs and pressed delete..... Even bigger Mistake i was reminded that the dleted photographs could be recovered for 60? days.

I now realise that I have deleted a few of the photos in error, but I have no idea how to reterive them!!!

I feel under pressure as the clock is ticking.

I am new to lightroom mobile so would welcome any help you can give.

Thanking you in anticipation

Under All Photos in the main library window you should see the "Deleted" album. Tap on that to open it and you should see the photos that you mistakenly deleted. To restore them, tap on the tri-dot icon top right and choose "Select Photos" and in the next screen tap on each of the photos you want to restore....they'll be highlighted with a large blue checkmark. When you are done selecting, tab on Restore at the bottom of the screen.

Note, if you are wanting to restore all the photos from the Deleted album, you can skip the selection process....after tapping on the tri-dot icon you can tap on "Restore All" instead of Select Photos.

Thank you for your reply, but on my iPad  the deleted album doesn't appear, all my other albums appear. I must be doing something wrong.

please could you attach a screenshot of where it appears

Thank you very much

The Deleted Album appears under All Photos , along with the other "system" albums such as Recently Added, Recent Edits, People. Check that you don't have that section collapsed, see this screenshot:

If your iPad looks like that, tap on the icon indicated and the section will expand to look like this:

If Deleted still doesn't show, can you check what version of LrMobile you are using?
