I don't know or use lightroom so take this for what it's worth ...

Could the image be a "ghost" of an image already deleted?

As to "right-click on Mac", I think cmd+click = right click.

I'm not absolutely certain because when I used Macs at school, I always
brought my own 2 button mouse to class so I could right-click whenever I
needed to.

Eric,

You should be able to select that photo within LR (in "Library") by
going to "Folders" panel on the left (not to "Collections").

If you still cannot find it, - under "Catalog" panel choose "All
Photographs". Then in the menu on top Library->Find  (or Ctrl-F on
Windows, probably Command-F on Mac). In the small "form" at the top
right, enter the filename of that photo (or a part of it).
It should be able to find it.

Then, right-click and choose "Remove photo", and from the pop-up window,
choose "remove" (it will remove it from the LR library, but not from the
disk).

And just in case:
You said, that you see it in "Finder", so, you know where it resides on
the HDD, but in case you have doubts:
In LR on Windows, you can do as follows:
 choose the photo, right click and choose "Show in Explorer". That will
open Windows Explorer in the folder where it resides.
I just don't know what replaces the right-click on Mac in this case.

HTH,

Igor

I have a single image file that is of no value to me that I’ve been
unable to get rid of. It's at the top level of my directory, not in a
folder. It shows up both in the source and destination windows in import
mode. It also shows up in Finder. But it does not show up in Library
otherwise, e.g., I doesn’t show up when I search for it.


I’d like to get rid of the damn thing. It’s a nuisance. It just hangs
out in the directory, showing up only when I go to import. I’ve spent a
ridiculous amount of time trying to get rid of the stupid thing within
LR. Can I just delete in Finder?
