Can't delete IMG_0001.PNG

Somewhere along the line, I hit the magic combination of buttons that takes a snapshot of the phone's screen as a .png file. However, when I tried to download this and some other pictures from the phone, both iPhoto and Image Capture claim that there's only one picture in the camera -- IMG_0001.PNG. Trying to import the picture(s) in iPhoto produced a dialog box with the error message "Unreadable files: 1 -- The following file could not be imported (The import failed.) -- IMG_0001.PNG". Selecting the image in the iPhone window in Image Capture and clicking either Download or Delete seems to do something, but ultimately the image seemingly stayed in place.
Arggh. So I deleted the image from the phone and took a few more random pictures, just so there'd be something there for iPhoto to play with. Unfortunately, both iPhone and Image Capture think that the picture is still there, and don't see the other newer pictures I've taken. Attempts to download anything result in the same error message (iPhoto) or non-behavior (Image Capture).
Any thoughts? I suppose I could wipe the phone and start over, but I'd rather not resort to that...

Hey Jim,
Try resetting the iPhone. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743
You can also restore the iPhone and recover from backup which would recover most of the data.

  • Can i delete ALL files in directory ?

    i create a upload test using FileReference & PHP.
    In this scenario user upload files to http server.
    Now how can i delete all files in /files/uploads folder in AS3
    AS3 Code:
    req = new URLRequest();
    req.url = ( stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f )? stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f : "http://www.website.com/test/upload.php";
    uploadFile = new FileReference();
    select_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, browse );
    uploadFile.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, complete_func );
    uploadFile.addEventListener( DataEvent.UPLOAD_COMPLETE_DATA, show_message );
    function browse( e:MouseEvent )
              filefilters = [new FileFilter('Images',"*.jpg;*.png;*.gif")];
              uploadFile.browse( filefilters );
    function complete_func( e:Event )
              trace( 'complete !' );
    function show_message(e:DataEvent)
    if (e.data == 'ok')
              label_txt.text = 'The file has been uploaded.';
    else if ( e.data == 'error')
              label_txt.text = 'The file could not be uploaded.';
    PHP Code:
    <?php
    $uploads_dir = './files/uploads';
    if( $_FILES['Filedata']['error'] == 0 ){
              if( move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], $uploads_dir.$_FILES['Filedata']['name'] ) ){
                        echo 'ok';
                        exit();
    echo 'error';
    exit();
    ?>

    You need call another PHP file
    <?php
       $directory = './files/uploads';
       getDirectoryList ($directory);  
       //This function find all the files in the directory
       function getDirectoryList ($directory)
         // create an array to hold directory list
         $results = array();
         // create a handler for the directory
         $handler = opendir($directory);
         // open directory and walk through the filenames
         while ($file = readdir($handler)) {
           // if file isn't this directory or its parent, add it to the results
           if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
        //$results[] = $file;
         // Delete Files
        $filename = $file;
      unlink($filename); //this delete a file
         // tidy up: close the handler
         closedir($handler);
    ?>

  • Can I delete an automatically generated Bitmap Symbols?

    Some strange things happen.... Each time I import the png file into the library I get an automatically generated sumbol with a name like "Symbol 123"
    If I to delete the just imported png file, then the symbol does not show anything.
    What is the use of this symbol, do I need it for anything or can just delete it?

    If you don't plan to do any animating of the images you don't really need the symbols versions. One thing you might do is go thru your Preferences (Edit -> Preferences) and see if there are any settings that include creating a movieclip with the imported image.  You should be able to shut that off.

  • Which of these folders contents can I delete

    I want to free up some space on the hard drive, and I know this is where all the memory is being taken up at. Which folders contents can I delete, that will not effect playback and exporting of my sequence in a project?
    [IMG]http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z161/Honda16Kelly/Picture1-1.png[/IMG]

    within these folders you should find that you have subfolders for each of your current projects
    if you find that there are folders for projects which are already completed, signed off, mastered to tape and/or achived, then you can safely delete those particular projects subfolder
    warning: be careful that you are not deleting content from one old project which you are actually reusing in a new and current project

    RoboHelp HTML Can't delete default TOC
    Hi again
    Arrrgh! I'm so sorry! Silly me. I'm mixing up my RoboHelp versions.
    I just checked my version 7 and it doesn't seem to offer any ability to
    nominate a different TOC as the default. RoboHelp 8 does.
    Again I apologize.
    When you edit the layout properties, you are given the option of choosing
    the TOC to use with the layout. Does this help?

  • Two apple I.D., one with the .me email address I want, how can I delete it so that I can use that .me address on my other account?

    I have two apple I.D., one with the .me email address I want, how can I delete it so that I can use that .me address on my other account
    Or is it possible to transfer the purchases (apps) to my new .me account so that I can re-download them in the future without having to switch accounts?

    You can't do this, and you can't transfer purchases between accounts. There is no conflict about using one ID for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match (the ID you've been using for iTunes) and using the other ID for iCloud.

  • HT1918 how can i delete credit card from the itunes store?

  • How can I delete an iTunes account that has been deactivated?

    I deleted an old Apple ID with the help of a call to Apple Support.  However, my iphone is still trying to use the old ID.  How do I log out of the old ID and into the new?  Or, how can I delete the old ID when it has already been deactivated?  (Cannot delete with phone)

    Only iTunes Support can potentially delete an account (which would also delete any purchase history for it, so you would no longer be able to authorise that content on a computer, redownload it, and download updates to its apps) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    Or you could just remove any personal info from it (e.g. payment details if you have any on it) and stop using it

    How can I delete my itunes store account

    At the moment you can't - just remove any personal info from it (e.g. credit card details) and stop using it. If you purchased any content from Apple with it (music, films, apps etc) then you will need to remember the account id and password in case you ever want authorise it so as to use it on a different computer (or the same computer if, for exampel, you upgrade the OS)

  • How can I delete an old iCloud account for which I do not remember the password?  The email address linked to that account is no longer active.

    The email linked to that account is no longer active.  How can I delete this old account and use a new one?

    Although your profile says you're running iOS 5.1.1 it sounds like you're running iOS 7 (otherwise you would not need your password to delete the old account).  Assuming that's true, and your iCloud ID has changed but you need to delete the old account in order to change to your new one, 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 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.

  • How can I change my old Apple ID? I have a new one created but can't deleted the old one it's gray and u can't tap on it?

    I'm able to use the new one even tho the old one is there? But can't delete the old one because it's frayed out n can't tap on it to change it to the new one

    You will need to use that old Apple ID and password to update any apps you purchased using that account. So you will either need to recover that Apple ID, which if you forgot the password you should be able to reset here:
    http://iforgot.apple.com
    or you will need to delete all those apps and repurchase them using your current Apple ID.
