[Maggie Thistle] "At the moment, I'm highlighting them and clicking remove but a box appears for every clip asking if I want to clear the cache files also."
Don't try to remove each clip separately in the middle window. Go to the left side of the screen (source window) where the folders are listed. Right or control click on one of the folders and choose REMOVE from the pop-up menu. Click OK from the ARE YOU SURE prompt and the folder will be deleted along with all the clips in the middle window that are associated with that folder.
[Maggie Thistle] " I can only highlight a few clips at a time as when I try to import all the clips a warning appears saying something about wrong file types."
Just a question first. Is your original media recorded on SXS or SDHC? I've never seen an issue where the non-optimized media warning has come up. Once one of the folders in the source window is highlighted all the clip icons appear in the main top window. All I do to import all clips is to highlight one then choose SELECT ALL or Cmd -A. all the clips should become selected then just choose IMPORT at the bottom right of the main window.
