How do i delete photos from my iPad that were imported from a camera

On a recent vacation, I backed up some 1,100 photos onto my iPad each day. Now that I'm home, I've imported the photos into Aperture (or iPhoto) from the camera and no longer need the photos on the iPad.
I can't find a way to delete them except:
one-by-one. VERY time consuming
importing them into a photo app again, selecting remove photos, then deleting the new redundant photos from the phot app
There must be a better way...

How do i delete a thousand pictures from my ipad that were imported from CF card?

I carried my ipad on trip instead of my laptop, used the ipad to store photos as i filled up my camera's cards. worked well. have copied them all the my HD and an external back-up drive. but, there's seems to be no way to bulk delete all those photos (45GB worth) from the ipad. i tried creating an album, putting all the photos in there and deleting the album... doesn't delete the photos, just to pointers to them for that album. The only way it seems to be able to delete is one picture at a time, and there's over 2800 pics.. I've tried unchecking all the 'synch' folder in Iphoto but that doesn't removed the ones on the ipad that were imported there w/o using Iphoto... i've added and updated a lot of things to my ipad since i took those pics and don't want to do a restore. (which would also mean revert to IOS4) Any suggestions would be most welcome
TIA

How do I delete photos on my iPhone that were transferred from iPhoto to my phone?

I recently transfered most of my photos from my iphone to iphoto on my macbook. A couple of days later I transfered some of them back onto my iphone, but now when i look at them on my iphone there is no way to delete them there. Ive tried everything but nothing works. I simply cannot delete photos on my iphone that were transfered there from iphoto.
I thought apple was supposed to make things easier, but apparently not.

Correct. You need to Un-sync them using your Computer.
Basically do the opposite of what you did to get them on your Device.

Deleting photos on iPhone 5 that were imported from another phone?

Hi, I just have a question regarding the deletion of photos from my new iPhone 5. The photos in question are not photos that I have taken since I got the new phone but those that were transferred from my old phone (Samsung Galaxy S2) by an agent in the store where I bought it. The photos appear in an album called 'sii pics', presumably created by the agent, but there appears to be no option to delete them: there is no trash can icon, no delete button and the album doesn't appear in iTunes either. I have posted this on my phone carrier's community support website but they couldn't come up with an answer. Anyone here have any ideas? Thanks.

If the photos came to the new iPhone after being synced in iTunes to a computer, then you will need to uncheck photos in iTunes for that new iPhone and sync/Apply the changes.
If these photos are listed in the My Photo Stream on the new device, its becasue both phones are using the same Apple ID in Settings > iCloud.
If you want to use the same account, everything will continue to sync from Settings > iCloud that is turned on, turn off Photos in there to stop uploading photos to My Photo Stream, or Delete Account and either don't use iCloud or set it up with your own account/email address.

How do I delete photos on my iPad that were added with the SD card adaptor?

I added photos to my iPad using the SD Card Adaptor over a year ago. They now appear in the 'Photos' tab on the iPad. They are not in Photo Stream and they do not appear in Albums under Camera Roll or Last Import. I have connected my iPad to the PC and opened the DCIM folder and they are not there at all.
I have Googled this question repeatedly and can not find an answer. I have viewed many YouTube tutorials that I thought would give me the right answer and... nope.
Can anyone please help?

Thanks Clyde. But the photos do not show up in iTunes either!
Well, let's just say, that I can't see them there! All I see in iTunes under Photos is the option to Sync photos.

If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox.
There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

How do you delete pictures on your iphone that were downloaded from your computer or memory card?

There is NO other way to get photos off your phone, that were synced to your phone, other than through the iTunes sync process. Just make sure there are no checks, in any boxes, for any photos, that you do not want on your phone.

How do i delete photos on my iphone that were previously deleted from itunes? cannot remove photos from iphone album. trash can is greyed out.

how do i delete photos on my iphone that have already been deleted from my windows laptop? The photos cannot be selected and removed from the iphone album. trash can is greyed out.

You should be able to delete the photos by syncing with iTunes. Either remove the checkmark beside "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes or change the selection of photos to be synced. Each time you sync it is supposed to set the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/selection in iTunes.

If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

How do I delete photos on my ipad which were accidentally synced from my computer?

I am new to Apple. I Have an Ipad 2 updated to operating system 6. When I first connected my ipad to my Microsoft computer, photos on my computer where inadvertantly synced to my ipad. I would like to take these photos off my ipad. I have synced the ipad to computer, clicked on photos, clicked the file I want deleted on the ipad but I cannot find anywhere where it says delete. I do not want to delete the photos on the computer, only the ipad? Thanks for your help.

1. Rename the folder that contain your photos on the computer
2. Create an empty folder using the original name of folder
3. Sync empty folder with iPad to delete photos
4. Delete the empty folder on computer
5. Rename the original folder

HT204022 How do I delete photos on my phone that were synced in from iPhoto? I do not want these photos on my phone!

This is what the website says to do:
On an iOS 7 device
In the Photos app, tap Shared at the bottom of the screen, then tap Streams at the top of the screen.
Tap the shared stream you want to remove, tap People, then tap Unsubscribe (if you’re a subscriber) or Delete Photo Stream (if you’re the owner).
You can also tap Shared, tap Edit, tap the Remove button on the left side of the shared stream you want to remove, then tap Unsubscribe (if you’re a subscriber) or Delete (if you’re the owner).
However, when I go into my photos app, there is nothing that says "shared" at the bottom of the screen.

unsync via itunes
plug device into computer - open itunes- click name of device click photos- uncheck all photos you want to remove- sync or apply at bottom
Peace, Clyde
