I added some photos and they were put into the folder named IMPORTS. I would prefer that all my photos are in the folder called PHOTOS at the top of the list. Is there a way to move them? Or set up the preference so all the photos end up in one folder? Thanks
IMPORTS isn't a Place, it's a list. It's there so you can quickly find your recently imported images. Every photo in IMPORTS is already in the PHOTOS folder.

If you are seeing a photo in Imports and want to find it quickly in "All Photos", right-click or ctrl-click the photo and click "Show in All Photos". The Imports are sorted by the date of import, so you will always find your recently imported photos at the bottom of the album. The "All Photos" album is sorted by the capture date, when the photo has been taken. The sort order of "All Photos" has changed in Photos 5.0 on Catalina. In Photos 4.0 it is still sorted by the date of Import.
Photos and Imports are created by the system and all photos are in both views, just organized differently. You cannot change the order of the display.
Thank you for your help! It looks like the newly imported pictures are dated 2017! I went in and changed their dates and now they are where they belong in Photos. Thanks!!!!
You're welcome 😊
