Q: Cannot delete pages in a Photos book. . .please help

I had 62 photos in an album, and clicked create book. As I worked, there were about seven photos I do not want. (I do not use auto fill.) The book, however, remains steady at 62 pages. Clicking remove pages doesn't work--I cannot get rid of those pages. Frustrated, I finally just decided I'd order the book with blank pages, but I'm not allowed to do that either--it says you have to put pictures there. All help greatly appreciated and thanks.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

    Photos Help explains how to delete pages

     

    Add, remove, and reorder book pages

    You can add, delete, or reorder book pages. You can insert new pages anywhere in a book, except between the outside cover page and the inside cover.

    Note: A book must have an even number of pages. If changing the number of pages creates an odd number of pages, Photos automatically adds or deletes a blank page to keep the page count at an even number.

    Open Photos for me

    1. Click Projects in the toolbar, then double-click the book.
    2. Do one of the following:
      • Add a page: Select the page you want the new page to follow, then click Add Page button in the toolbar and choose Add Page.
      • Set the exact number of pages in a book: Click the Book Settings button Book Settings button in the toolbar and drag the Number of Pages slider.
      • Delete a page from a book: Click the page to select it and press Delete, or click Add Page button in the toolbar, choose Remove Page, then click Continue. You can also Control-click the page, choose Remove Page, then click Continue.
      • Move a page in a book: Position the pointer over a page number until the page button appears, then drag the page button to move the page to a new location. You can also select a page and then drag the page button.A page in a two-page spread, with the page button visible under the page

     

     

     

     

    and before ordering be sure to preview the book using these instructions - Preview a print project in Photos, iPhoto, or Aperture to avoid issues - Apple Support
