new to LR CC -can't find my photos

[kayak107]

imported photos and can't figure out where they are stored on my iMac .

no right click to see in finder like classic CC

They are in the cloud.

If you go into Preferences, on the Local Storage tab you'll see the location of images stored locally (in a .lrlibrary file). How many of your originals are stored locally depends on how much local storage space is allotted. The idea though, is for you to stay out of the library file! Other than setting in Preferences how much local space LR CC can use and what hard drive this should be on, the idea is that LR CC is a hands-off application when it comes to file management.

I have told my Mac book pc to search the cloud for the file name.  It gives me nothng.

@Phil24814715xn8s   You would have to search within the Lightroom App.

Your post gives us 'next to nothing' information also to be able to give a better answer.

Laura and Jim are spot on Kayak. They are always stored in the Cloud but you also can set a certain percentage to be stored locally (with the software working out what ones to store). You can also select individual images to store locally, believe that setting is in the info section for that photo.
