I have been trying for an hour to delete all of the photos from my iphone5.  Can't do it, except for 1 at a time.  I can't even connect it to my PC and delete them from my computer.  Why isn't this easy and intuitive?

I have been trying for an hour to delete all of the photos from my iPhone 5.  I have googled it several times and there doesn't seem to be a solution.  Have tried deleting them from my PC. One at a time deleting is impractical - I have 1000 photos!  Why isn't this easy and intuitive?

When you hooked up to your PC did they attempt to import? Had you imported them previously and not deleted when the import was complete?
If you have to delete them directly on your device, you need to press the select button and just keep selecting until you have all of them selected, then put them in the trash.
You do not need to select one then trash it, then select another then trash it. You can select as many as you like before clicking on the trash icon.

    Ernie-
    Thanks for responding...but still have a oroblem. Here's what I'm doing:
    In Aperture I choose a "version" that has been Adjusted (croped, etc.).
    - Go to "File"...'Export"..."Version"
    - In next window for "Export preset" I choose "JPEG-Fit within 1024x1024"
    - Click on "Export version"
    The exported version then showes up in "Finder" under "Pictures"
    - Next I open "Mail" (version 5.2)
    - Adderss email to friends in England.
    - Click on attachment (paper clip)
    - Choose my "version" from "pictures"
    - Back in Mail, click on "Format"..."Make Plain Text"
    - Send
    My friends receive it as "bmp", not JPEG, with no Metadata.
    If I do the same procedure but under "File" choose "Export Master", they receive it as JPEG and also the Metadata.....BUT, of course, no Adjustments, such as croping, that were made to the "Version".
    What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to save the "Version" as a "Master" and then send it as a "Master"?
    Thanks,

  • I have been trying to work on my homework all afternoon, via NAU's blackboard system. I am continuously getting booted out of the system, with an error stating "Data execution prevention". How can I prevent this from continuing?

    I have been trying to work on my homework all afternoon, via NAU's blackboard system. I am continuously getting booted out of the system, with an error stating "Data execution prevention". How can I prevent this from continuing?

    If you are wondering why you are not getting any responses, it is because you have vented a complaint without any details that make any sense or give anyone something to work on.
    If you want help, I suggest actually detailing what has happened, with versions of software etc. Anything that would let us assist.
    As a start I am guessing that you have not really got the hang of "How it all works". Firstly download the Pages09_UserGuide.pdf from under the Help menu. Read that and view the Video Tutorials in the same place. A good addition would be the iWork 09 Missing manual book and something to help you learn how to use your Mac.
    If there are specific tasks you need help with:

    Is a good resource.

  • Just bought the iphone 5 and before syncing to my mac i took some photos then finally decided to sync it but it deleted ALL of the photos and videos and replaced them with the old pics i had on my iphone4.. i need those pics please help

    Nope.
    Did you fail to import them before restoring from backup?  If so, then they are gone.
    You should import all photos taken with the iphone to your comuter regularly as you would with any digital camera, most especially before any update or restore.

  • On my new ipad air, my photostream turned itself on, but i didnt want to have my photos go to my photostream, is there any way i could turn off the photostream without having to delete all of the photos that are already on the ipad?

    HELP!!!

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you turn off photo stream it will only remove the photo stream album, it won't remove photos from your camera roll.

  • For the past few hours I have been trying to download ios 7.0.4 from itunes onto my iPhone after trying many times it would give me a error saying network failed! then i tried to download Ios 7.0.4 manually and then put it on but it keeps failing?

    I venture to say you have a Windows PC.
    If so, before beginning the download try temporarily disabling your antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required with the insecure OS your computer is running.

  • HT201317 My iPhone is running out of storage.  I want to delete a bunch of photos on my phone.  I have iCloud.  How do I delete photos from the iPhone and keep them on my computer?  I need to free up storage as my phone will no longer take photos.

    My iPhone is running out of storage.  I want to delete a bunch of photos on my phone.  I have iCloud.  How do I delete photos from the iPhone and keep them on my computer?  I need to free up storage as my phone will no longer take photos.

    The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
    The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

  • I purchased Adobe Acrobat Professional and have been trying to activate it for some time.  I also had this same program on my previous computer.  How do I de-activate it from that computer so that I can activate it on my new computer?

    I purchased Adobe Acrobat Professional and have been trying to activate it for some time.  I also had this same program on my previous computer.  How do I de-activate it from that computer so that I can activate it on my new computer?

    Hi larrygoynes,
    To transfer the license from one pc to another the step you have to follow is to 'Deactivate' the license first from the older machine.
    To accomplish this you need to Launch Acrobat, go to the 'Help' menu and select 'Deactivate'
    On the new machine you can install Acrobat and then use the serial number to 'Activate' the software and this will complete the license transfer.
    You can refer the KB Doc: Activation & Deactivation Help

    I have been trying to download l OS X Mavericks to upgrade from snow leopard. I had a miss download right now in my tool bar there is a OS X Mavericks Icon that says-Waiting... this has been there for 4 hours   when I click on it, cancel donwload? or (pause grayed out) or the options. I have tried this 6 times.  I used the app in the Mac App Store.  thanks  KJG43

    The installer is over 5Gb's and could take many hours to download.
    Check the download status in the App Store application.

  • HT5610 How can You authorise your Windows Vista computer??? I do not get this drop down menu nowI cannot get this here, have been trying for hours, why is this so uncooperative? My first impression of I tunes is not so good after that.

    How can you authorise your windows vista computer to play stuff you downloaded from itunes???  I cannot get this drop down menu shown on your support pages whatever I do.    I have been trying for ages.  This is not a good first impression.

    Authorize a Mac or PC
    Review the following before you authorize a computer:
    You can authorize up to five computers with your Apple ID.
    You must authorize your computer to download past purchases, use Home Sharing, or use the Automatic Downloads setting.
    You can play unprotected music that's in the AAC file format without authorizing your computer. This includes iTunes Plus tracks and content  from sources other than the iTunes Store, like your audio CDs.
    To authorize a computer, follow these steps:
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Authorize This Computer from the menu bar.
    You may need to show the menu bar to see this option in Windows.     In earlier versions of iTunes, you can access this option from the Advanced menu.
    Enter your Apple ID and click Authorize.
    If your Apple ID uses an expired MobileMe account, you can still authorize your computer.
    In some cases, iTunes may ask you to authorize the computer again. iTunes should use the same authorization as before if the computer is in your  list of authorized computers.
    Learn what to do if iTunes repeatedly asks you to authorize when you try to play your content.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
    Note : If you are Unable to see the Store Tab on your iTunes then click anywhere on your iTunes and press
    Ctrl + B key on your keyboard once and you should be able to see the Store tab in your iTunes.

  • HT4259 I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets block somehow when the Express looks like it's set up and 'green' - no in

    I have been trying for hours to extend my Extreme Gen 5 network with an Express Gen 2.  But no matter what I do or try, it doesn't work.  What does happen is my internet gets blocked somehow when the Express is online and looks like it's set up perfect and 'green' - but no internet connection for anything even though the Extreme is green and the modem is good.  Once I disconnect the Express, everything is good again.
    I've tried LAN, WAN, though a switch, direct connect, Extreme set to Extend the network, the Express set to be an extension.  Most of the time I get an error trying to update the Express.  But when it seems to be set up perfect, the entire house can't get to the internet.  Just when it looks right, it is so wrong.
    If anyone can give me exact steps (e.g., "...from the Base Station menu, select the Restore Default Setting option" vice "...just restore the defaults..."), I would greatly appreciate it.  I'm left to the conclusion that the Express is faulty.  I've been using Airport Utility 6.2 from Mountain Lion on one computer and Airport Utility 5.6.1 from Snow Leopard on another computer (the latter give more control while the former just want you to 'forget' the Express).

    I finally got it working.  I was trying to set it up ethernet.  My biggest mistake was when the new Express came on, I did not select 'Continue' - I went straight to manual thinking that I would get the most setup options in manual mode.  So everything I initially tried always resulted in 'wireless'.  Even when I would update or restore default settings, the Express would not completely restart. Or sometimes I would get an error. So most of the time I had to unplug it.  So when it came back up, none of my changes were retained. But there were a lot of times when everything was green and appeared to be fine. But anytime the ethernet cable was plugged in, no more internet.
    So here's the weird part.  When I finally tried 'continue' (vice manual), I would get 4 options.  One would be 'ethernet' extended.  So I would select it, it gave me green lights, all looked good, and still the same problem.  This is when I got frustrated.  I thought I had exhausted all possible combinations.
    But somehow when trying continue again after another restore, I only got 3 options.  One was the same ethernet extended option (can't remember what the missing 4th one was).  And this time it worked - it gave me the big green circle with the checkmark saying it was successful.  I don't know what I did different, but I know now that it won't work if 4 options come up to choose from.  It will work if only 3 options come up.  And success if only verified by the big checkmark.  Had anyone anywhere said the checkmark declaring success is validation, then maybe I wouldn't have gone down so many rabbit holes thinking it should have been successful.
    As for which Airport Utility I prefer, 6.2 looks nice, but it would just ignore the Express and would want me to 'forget' it and would not let me edit it.  Airport Utility 5.6.1 was the one that I ended up using the most and finally had success with.  It still strikes me as odd that there is no manually way to pick ethernet, it can only be choosen following a 'restore defaults', and only from the 3-option list (the 4-option list had the same ethernet choice, but it no worky).
    Thanks for the response.  I really do appreciate it.
    Aiport Extreme Gen5 - internet access and router
    Airport Express Gen2 - connected via ethernet, extending my wireless
    - configured while connect directly to the Extreme, but now on a switch (16-port hub)
    Using Airport 5.6.1
    1) Restore Defaults from Base Station menu
    2) Following restart, Select Continue
    3) Of the 3 option presented, select 'ethernet.... extend network...'
      - if 4 options are present, may not work
    4) Wait for the green circle with the big white checkmark.
    5) Connected Express to the switch where a cable went to other end of house - works.
    Dead-zone went from 2mbps to 24mbps.
    I probably spent 4 hours chasing my tail in anger.  The correct way took about 5 minutes total.
    Thanks again.

  • I have been trying to update my software for the past 3 hours. It just goes so far and stalls. I've never had this problem before, what am I doing wrong?

    I have been trying to update my iPad2 for the past 3 hours. It just sets there doing very little and says its going to take 9 hours.  What am I doing wrong?  I've never had this problem before.  Also can I update from any other computer? Just in case it is my lap top.

    Do you get any error messages ? If you get a network timeout error when downloading the update then try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed.
    It's best to only update via your own computer, otherwise you risk losing all your iPad's contents - updating to iOS 5 wipes the iPad and then restores your backup. If you having problems downloading the update then you could try downloading the update file via a browser on another computer and then copying that file to your laptop for the actual update .
