How can I delete photos from my phone

how can I delete photos from my i phone after synching w/ my macbook (i photo)?

If what you want to do is just delete a picture, just touch the trashcan while you're looking at the photo on your phone. On the other hand, if what you want to do is delete all the pictures from the phone after you transfer them to your computer, there is a checkbox on the screen when you transfer them into iPhoto asking whether to delete the selected pictures from the camera.

Delete them the same way you put them there. The sync process. Deselectg the album in itunes and sync.
Photo Album contains ALL synced photos and you can also view those exact same photos, not duplicates, from the albums.

How can I delete photos from my ipad that came in when I connected for the first time to my pc?

how can I delete photos from my ipad that came in when I connected for the first time to my pc? HELP

Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced - and then re-syncing.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.

I can't delete photos from my Ipad I have tried already removing and changing folders in photos app

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

HT201302 how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

Hello paolo@spring,
Just as photos that were taken more than 30 days ago remain on your MacBook Air, so will photos that are deleted from your iPhone.
Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days.
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.

I can't delete photos from my ipad

I Can't delete photos from my iPad it's like the delete key is not active Does anyone know how to fix this

I can't seem to delete ANY photos or videos from my iPad NO MATTER what I try. And they take up 4.9GB!!! There is NO WAY in **** I have that many phgotos or videos on my iPad -- when I actually go to look at the photos/videos tere are maybe 100 photos and maybe ten videos. How can that take up FIVE GB of space????
And when I go to General>Usage>Photos and Cameras my Camera Roll, Photo Library and Photo Booth are all greyed out. I can't do ANYTHING with them.
I have no idea what's going on. I go onto my laptop and open iTunes with the iPad connected -- no hekp at all. I just want to REMOVE ALL THE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS -- such as theye are, and I STILL can't believe there are almost 5GB's worth of them -- without going through all these insane hoops!!!
There should just be a simple delete button! But when I do anything in iTunes to "restore" my iPad it warns me that I migfht have to PURCHASE ALL THE APPS I HAVE AGAIN!
This is so Windows-like I can scarcely believe it's coming from Apple. I've been to a dozen "help' pages BUT NONE SEEMS TO HAVE THE SIMPLE ANSWER -- HOW DO I ERASE ALL THE PHOTOS AND VIDEOS FROM MY IPAD??????????????

"Over capacity": How can I delete photos from iPhone / set the maximum capacity of iCloud photos to be downloaded to iPhone?

Hi,
My iPhone regularily goes over capacity because it stores, or tries to store, too many photos/videos from iCloud on the device.
How can I delete photos from the iPhone (but not generally from iCloud/Photostream). How can set the maximum capacity of iCloud photos to be downloaded to iPhone? (I am searching for a setting like "keep the last 2GB of photos/videos from iCloud/Photostream, but not more than that. I know how to turn iCloud off in total, but that is not what I would prefer to do, I just would like to set reasonable maximum.)
Thank you for your ideas!
Generally, I someone could point me to a good tutorial on how local photos vs. iCloud photos vs. Photostream are supposed to work that would be great as well, because I have many other problem with Apple's system in that regard as well (esp., despite that obviously a lot of space is taken up by photos/videos on my device, my iPhone still downloads recent photos/videos over 3G... I also have the problem that all photos appear double if I try to copy to my Mac with ImageCapture or iPhoto, but there is only a single copy (no HDR, burst or the like) when seen with the Photos.app of the iPhone itself... I came to believe that Apple's photo system is somewhere between counterintuitive and plainly not working... (/rant off) )

Sorry there are no settings to set max capacity.

Why I can't delete photo from my ipad

I can't delete photo from my ipad

Synced photos cannot be deleted on the iPad. Only photos taken with the iPad and transferred with the Camera Connection Kit can be deleted.
You need to delete the photos in iTunes and sync again.

How can i delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

How can I delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

acapetown is the one who really solved this for me: his suggestion to create an empty folder and sync to that was THE ONLY solution that actually worked for my iphone 4s. Everything else about uncheckign "sync" and unchecking events DID NOT WORK. I think there is more than one glitch in this system because I noticed a lot of other people struggling with the question. Now my phone is light as a feather again and I can actually benefit from backup to the Cloud. Thanks acapetown!

How can I delete photos from photo library on my Iphone 4s?

Hello,
Can someone please tell me (in easy step by step instructions) how to delete photos from my Photo Library on my Iphone 4s?
I have moved some of the photos that i want ot keep in to sub folders by trip names etc but want to delete them from the photo library without loosing them/
I have looked on line for some solution but am confused by the answers given I am using a laptop not Mac.
Most people suggest it can only be done via ITunes?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance?

If the photos that you are wanting to delete are also in your Camera Roll then you can delete them from the camera roll

Can't delete photos from Iphone Photo Stream - Have tried everything Apple has instructed me

I am soooooooo frustrated. I just downloaded OS 5 on my Iphone 4 and bought Apple TV - and was introduced to what looked like the wonderful world of "iCloud" and Photostream. Particularly photo stream on my screen saver on my new Apple TV. I took numerous shots this weekend, most which I wanted to delete - with my Photo Stream on and all settings set on iCloud - my Iphone, and my PC.
For the life of me, I can not delete photos in my Iphone Photostream. I have done all you said Apple - go to iCloud - and "Reset PhotoStream..." (actually tried this about 10 times in the last 48 hours - and all I get is...
“Could Not Reset Your Photo Stream.
Your Photo Stream could not be reset at this time due to a server error. Try again later…”
I know I';m not alone on this as I have seen other postings/users with the similar complaint.
I have turned on and off - the on - the photostream on my Iphone - yes - it deletes the photos, but then when you turn it back on, they ALL come back - including the unwanted ones.
I even turned off - then back on- the photo stream on the iCloud DAshboard (because someone said to do it) and it still didn't work.
Then I plugged my Iphone in to the computer - to go into my Photos - and manually deleted the photos I didn't want. . I did delete them, as well as the unwanted photos in Photostream on my PC, but the freaking unwanted photos are still on my iphone - and wont' go away. It's like a virus that won't dissapear. I took pictures of this ugly cow at a pumpkin patch sticking it's tongue out at me, and I can't get rid of them!!!
We have long been fans/customers of Apple (we own 2 iphones, a Mac, and an IPad). And.. just so you know, in all the time I've been writing this, I've been on "hold" waiting for an Apple Tech support person (3rd call to them in 2 days) to pick up, and all I get now is a ringing phone w no one answering it... Click.
I read the other VERY frustrated users on this forum and I don't see one clear cut answer on how to fix these problems. Apple - at least you can recognize the problem, own up to it, and tell us that this will be fixed - which I sure it will be at some point. You have to get this together.
Steve is gone (god bless his soul and I thank him for all he has done) and my experiences with Apple now have turned horrible. And if any tech support person (and I know you guys are very nice and try the best you can) knows a thing or three on how to fix this, my case number is 252 894 095 and I would love to fix this issue. I think it has great potential but it clearly has bugs in it now.

If you are using a PC, log on to iCloud using Safari (rather than Explorer) to reset the photostream. Then turn iPhone/iPad photostream off and back on. I was getting the same server error as you and this advice from another blog worked for my iPhone and iPad. But I still can't get photostream deleted from my apple tv. There does not seem to be a photostream on/off control In Apple tv 4.4 software. I tried switching the screen saver to one of the ones that comes preloaded on the device, then back to photostream but all the old photos are still there. If anyone can help with this, I would appreciate it.
