How do I delete photos on iPad from photo library

How do I delete photos on an iPad from the photo library?

Photos captured by the iPad are stored in the same location as photos saved from a received email or from a website. All photos in this location can be deleted direct from the iPad. Under Albums that would be all photos in the Camera Roll album.
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are deleted from your iPad in the same way - via the iTunes sync/transfer process.
If you have Photo Stream turned on with each device, all photos in the Camera Roll on each device will be available in the Photo Stream on each device. Capture a photo with your iPhone which is stored in the Camera Roll and the photo will be placed on your Photo Stream as well which in turn will be available in the Photo Stream on your iPad and vice-versa. The same with photos saved from a received email or from a website on eithe device which are stored in the Camera Roll. Beginning with iOS 5.1, you can delete photos direct from the Photo Stream on either device.

  • How do i delete an old iPad from my iCloud? I have restored the iPad to factory settings but it is still showing in my iCloud.

    How do I delete an old iPad from my iCloud? I have restored the iPad to its factory settings and linked my new iPad however the old one is still showing in my iCloud.

    Hello Erin,
    You can and it depends on what you are referring to. For example, are you wanting to remove you old iPad from the Find My iPhone feature, you can do that at iCloud.com and the steps for that are in the first article. If you are wanting to delete an old back up, then check out the second article to walk you through those steps.

  • How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

    Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated.  But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library.  How can I delete the old file?  So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there.  Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
    Thanks in advance.

    You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
    Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
    if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
    If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

  • How do I delete my iCloud account from my iPad 2 when I don't know the password to that account?

    How do I delete my iCloud account from my iPad 2 when I don't know the password to that account?

    Try going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?

    How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?

    You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT569
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

  • How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?

    How do i delete my iCloud account from my iPad with an updated Apple ID?
    It requires i log into FindMyiPad to delete the iCloud account however the Apple ID has changed therefore the username/password no longer exists.
    This is just sending me in circles to log into to a non-existant apple id with no password to delete my iCloud so i can log in with my updated apple ID.

    Settings/iTunes and App Store log out then log in with new ID.  you might want to change ID in iMessage, FaceTime and Siri and delete the cloud account and create one with new ID.  remember apps are forever linked to the ID used to download them and can only be updated with that ID

  • How can I delete a single song from my iPad?

    How can I delete a single song from my iPad?

    Hi lizdance40,
    The first part of your answer worked great, thanks for that!  However, since doing that, there are still songs on the iPad that I want to delete. I place my finger on the song, swipe to the left....and nothing. No red "delete" appears at the right. That used to work on my full size iPad, but not on this mini. I just purchased it last Friday...maybe it's defective?
    Thanks again,
    Sirsheila

  • How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone, since it doesn't synch with my ipad?

    How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone 4, since it doesn't sync with my ipad mini?

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address (you shouldn't need to verify the old account).  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • TS3992 on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    on iPad: How can I delete my Mail storage from my iCloud backup?

    Did anyone ever provide a resolution, because I am having the same problem.
    My iCloud backup said yesterday that over 500 MB was being used by the Mail portion of the backup. So I went into iCloud.com, deleted all of the mail in my Sent Mail folder, then emptied the trash entirely. When I did that, it got worse; it said that 1.2 GB of the iCloud backup was taken up by the Mail backup. That doesn't make any sense. That is actually the opposite of what was supposed to happen.
    Today, it is back to saying that Mail takes up 609.4 MB of space in the backup, but there is next-to-nothing in any of my iCloud email folders. What is going on?
    Any suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

  • How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

    How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?  These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear.  I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
    Thanks
    York

    Interesting note:  I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen.  The video does not open.  I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

    How can I delete the IMessage App from my IPad? I downloaded the app myself. It does not show an X on it when held down either. Any ideas?

    You can't delete the app iMessage.
    You can turn it Off or "hide" it with Restrictions.
