I am trying to select multiple photos in iCloud without having to click on each photo individually. Is there a way to do so?

Hello Tiggertiffany,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you need to select multiple items on iCloud.com then you can use the common procedure to select multiple items by either holding Command or Shift on your keyboard.
To select multiple files or folders, hold down the Command (⌘) key, then click the items.
To select multiple files or folders that are listed together, click the first item you want to select, hold down the Shift key, then click the last item.
OS X Yosemite: select files or folders
Have a great weekend,

On my Mac it is simple to select multiple photos, just (using your mouse) draw a box around the 'wanted' photos.
Thus:

I was (possibly erroneously) referring to the Photos application, on a Mac. The website is so limited it just a viewer.
Thank you, Csound1. I was hoping you had found a way to do it at www.icloud.com.
I'm using www.icloud.com only as a last resort, when I cannot get access to one of my Macs. It is so limited.
Unfortunately not, the website is of no conceivable use to me, so I don't go there. If you can put photos on the website you must have a copy of Photos on something, so I use it.
They must be smarter than we are.
What are the Photos equivalents for iCloud access on Android and Linux?
None that I know of.
I agree. Apple should add the 'Shift' function to select multiple photos on iCloud.
Ridiculous
Making it hard for us to move to other platforms.
Shame on you.
I'm trying to delete 616 photos from a shoot I recently did.
Apple, are you seriously telling me I have to command-click EACH INDIVIDUAL PHOTO?!?
I have **** to do today, this is absurd.
This does not work for video.
If you want to save a small portion of the photos in a moment, how do you mass delete the rest?
I think you can't select all of them at the moment, although it would be very useful.
Instead, try Ctrl + Left Click and select multiple pictures.
I hope this was helpful 🙂
Merry Christmas! 😁
Assuming you are viewing your iCloud photo library from a computer, I found you can select multiple photos at once by holding Control/Command + Shift
Hello, what kind of computer are you using? This still isn't working for me, it's just making me select them one by one.
And if you do not own a Mac?...
I think I know the answer to that question.
How do you select multiple photos in iCloud?
