Any way to view and delete photos from a camera or card without importing?

I received my iPad yesterday and I have a Camera Connection Kit. I'd like to be able to view photos from my cf card, connected via a card reader and the Connection Kit, without having to import them. I take hundreds of pics at sporting events and would like a quick way to view the files and determine which ones are "keepers," then delete the others from the card before importing to my Mac for editing and creating web galleries.
So far I cannot find an app that "sees" the card except the native Photo app, which only allows selection for import, not zooming or deleting.
any tips?
thanks
steven

You can delete images from most (but not all) SD cards with the camera connection kit. But you have to import them to the iPad first. I don't know how long it takes to import hundreds of photos, so that may not be too quick. I doubt that Apple is going to open the kit up to developers because for whatever reason they want it restricted to photos only. So nothing else, short of a hack, is going to be able to read from or write to the CC kit's SD card.
There are other card reader/viewers available on the market and you could use one of those. Some are quite inexpensive. But I honestly don't know if the cheap ones have delete from the card capabilities. Anyway, a Google search of "card reader viewers" will get you the list.

  • Is there any way that I can delete photos from my iPhone by using my Mac?

    Is there any way that I can delete photos from my iPhone 4s by using iPhoto on my iMac (Mid 2011) using OS X Yosemite v10.10.2?  It seems it would be much more convenient to use my iMac to delete the photos from my iPhone or iPad, but I can't figure out how to do it.  Thanks for your consideration and help!

  • How can I use Ipad to view and delete photos from SD card without importing?

    Importantly I would like to view the photos from the SD card in full screen (vs. just a thumbnail) before deciding whether to delete.
    It seem's that with the camera connection kit you can only view them as thumbnails before importing. 
    Any other apps or hardware I could consider?
    Basically I would like to use the Ipad as my travel photo editing tool - specifically I want to be able to delete unwanted photos from my SD card without having to actually import them into the Ipad (but would like to be able to benefit from quality of ipad screen to actually review the photos before deleting).
    Thanks in advance for any tips you can share .....

    You must import if you want the iPad to have a file to display on the screen.

    Ive downloaded my photos into iphoto from my Canon G10 and cannot find them. I inadvertantly deleted photos from my camera. Any chance to recover or find them?

    Do they show in "last import" or in photos view?
    You give us nothing to go on so we can only make really wild guesses
    you may be able to  recover them on the camera card using software like media recover

    No but you can go to the deleted messages just after you delete them and undelete. Once the carrier deletes it from the system you cannot get it back.

  • How do you Remove a photo from the camera roll album without deleting from other albums

    How do you Remove a photo from the camera roll album without deleting from other albums

    If it was originally on the camera roll try this: take another unimportant photo for test purposes, copy it to any special folder you have created within Photos, connect your iPad to your computer, locate it as any other external device, and most likely that Photos folder will be the only thing that will show up, locate the photo, delete it and then sync your iPad.
    If the test photo is gone from the camera roll but still in another folder within the app then you know that the system works so go ahead with the process. I understand that there are other photo apps which might let you achieve your goal much quicker.
    Hope thi helps.

  • Deleting photos from the camera rol but not from photostream

    When deleting photos from the camera rol, sometimes the delete action triggers the deletion of the photo in the photostream as well, sometimes not.  What triggers this and how to prevent the photo to be deleted from the photostream as well ?

  • How do I delete photos from my Camera roll in iOS 7

    I have over 1,000 photos in my iPhone Camera Roll.  I would like to delete all the photos in the Camera Roll.  How do I do this efficiently in iOS 7?

    Hi mikeschumann,
    Of course you can delete photos from your Camera Roll:
    Go into your photos app and select the Camera Roll album
    Click on Select at the top right of the screen
    Select the photos you want to delete
    Click on the Trash can at the bottom of the screen
    Just remember, if you have not imported those photos into a photo app on a computer, they will be permanently deleted. You may have them on an iCloud backup, but each backup you do has only the image of the current state of your device. So, if the 1000 photos have been backed up in the last iCloud backup you do, then you delete them, and do another iCloud backup, that backup will not have those photos. Then, say, you take another 100 new photos, and back up to iCloud. That backup will have the most recent 100 photos, but not the 1000 previously backed up.
    So, your best bet is to import them to your photo app on your computer, and then select delete photos from device when asked.
    Cheers,

  • IPhoto doesn't ask if I want to delete photos from my camera

    I just upgraded to Snow Leopard and then to iLife '09. I just imported photos from my camera. I clicked "Import All" and it did that, but it didn't ask me whether I wanted to delete the photos after importing, so I had to delete them one by one on my camera. Does anyone know why it's not asking me this?

    Well as I said it's been reported in both iPhoto and Aperture, which pretty much rules out a "bug" in iPhoto, don't you think? And given the reported incidence of the issue (I've seen three) it would be a pretty esoteric "bug".
    And what is "repair permissions"?
    http://kb.iu.edu/data/aoxn.html
    If that fails, try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)

  • How can I recover deleted photos from my camera roll?

    How can I recover deleted photos from my camera roll and my photo stream?
    Please, help me!

    I finally got up with a solution.
    All you need is the photo file from your last backup.
    You can extract this file from your backup by using iBackupbot for itunes. Get this via:
    http://www.icopybot.com/itunes-backup-manager.htm
    Once you get this file you extract the photos in form of original database file. The screenshots on the website will help you to know how to extract the files.
    Okay so now when you've got the photo file you simply need to SSH into your phone to /private/var/mobile/Library/photo were you'll already see a photo file.
    Replace the old photo file that you've extracted from the backup by the one that already exist in.
    Don't forget to keep an extra copy of the new photo file if in case you go wrong somewhere.
    It worked for me and I hope it works for you too.
    Thanks mende1, you were indirectly helpful.

  • If I delete photos from my camera roll will I lose them from the cloud as well?

    If I delete photos from my camera roll will they be deleted from my cloud as well?

    No, photos in photo stream are not effected by deleting photos from your camera roll.  However, while photo stream photos are not deleted from your phone after they are in your photo stream album, photos older than 30 days are deleted from photo stream.  These means if you ever turn photo stream off, or connect a new device to photo stream, only photos added in the last 30 days will be available to download.  To keep them permanently, import your camera roll photos to your computer before deleting them (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083).
