I recently added a Folder to Photos by mistake and now I can't get rid of it. How can I delete it? Mid 2007 iMac running latest Yosemite and Photos.
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)
Select the folder and press the Delete key (or right-click and choose form the contextual menu).
Thanks Nigel. I didn't know about right clicking on a magic mouse and getting menu. All done, thanks again.
Hmm. I have the same problem and can't delete the folder!
I select the folder and pressed the Delete key. Nothing happened. I right clicked the mouse pad and nothing came up.
Help, can it be this hard?
Macbook pro, Photos Version 1.0.1 (215.65.0), Yosemite 10.10.4 (14E46).......
Never mind!! It was actually and album, and I was able to delete it. Not sure why it seemed so hard though. I think Photos leaves a few things to be desired!!
Right click on the folder (or an album or a photo) and select delete it as the identified answer states

Using a magic mouse you need to highlight the folder and press on the right hand side of the mouse. This gives the menu. Pressing in the centre of the mouse does not. I tried it and it works.
I agree. Give me iPhoto anytime. Photos is another case of more equals less.
Lucky Grandad2. I have a Magic Mouse, which does not yield the same result when pressing the right side. How difficult was it for Apple to provide a Delete Folder menu item? Obviously too difficult.
Double finger click... came here for the same answer, figured it out in the process of sorting through snarky-yet obvious possibilities.
