I don't see "Current Location" when importing

When I try to import new images, I want to import them to the current location but it doesn't give me that option for the destination. 

 

Any help on this would be great thanks!

  Catalog?  Add to Copy?   When set to Add the images stay where they are.

  They have changed the way this is worded in the import dialog box from what it used to be. They think it is clearer, but I am not so sure. In a catalog, the three options you get in the dialog box are

  • Add to catalog - this is what used to be "current location". The images get added to the catalog database, and previews are generated, but the image files themselves stay where they are.
  • Copy into catalog - this stores copies of the image files inside the catalog structure.
  • Copy to Folder... - this allows you to have the image files copied to any location you choose. The option to choose when importing from a camera or a memory card, unless you want the images stored inside the catalog structure.

  The options are different in a session, but is sounds as though you are in a catalog.
