Cannot delete certain pictures in Iphoto on my IPad. no trash bin option for these particular photos.

I am having trouble deleting certain pictures on my IPad. They are jpeg pics but by selecting them individually under the photo icon or by using iphoto they will not delete. No trash can icon will highlight to drag them to. I believe there may be dublicate pictures so when I select no trash can appears. I can change to a different date with no dublicate pic and trash can appears. I am doing a backup of my Ipad and maybe I have to go to factory default and start over!!

How did these pictures get on the iPad?
If they were synced to it through iTunes on a computer, then the only way to delete them, is to un-sync them the same way.

    Start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPad to your computer with the cable that came with the iPad.
    Select your iPad in the left colmn of iTunes on your computer.

  • Deleting a picture in iPhoto AND the file in the finder at once

    How can I delete a picture in iPhoto and also delete the file of that picture in the finder in one step? In iTunes the program asks the question if the real file should be deleted also.

    If you're running a Managed library then put the pic in the iPhoto trash and empty it. Note to do this you have to be viewing in an Event or Photos view, not in an album.
    If you're running a Referenced Library, you can't. When you elected not to have iPhoto manage the files on import, you also elected not to have it manage the files on deletion.
    Are you running a Managed or a Referenced Library?
    A +Managed library+, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
    A +Referenced Library+ is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.

  • I deleted the picture in iphoto, then emptied my iphoto trash, but the picture is still showing on my computer when i go into my trash under "all images" How do you delete pictures even when you empty the trash and they stay in the computer?

    Wtih iPhoto 9 when the iPhoto Trash is emptied the files get moved to the Trash bin in the Dock as a second chance to change your mind.  Look in the Dock's Trash bin.

    Welcome to the Apple community khnkOliver.
    I assume these photos, or at least not all of them weren't in photo stream.
    You should be able to recover your photos from a back up.

  • I don't have iPhoto on my ipad or iPhone. Apple says these are free but it is $4.99 in the App Store?

    I don't have iPhoto on my ipad or iPhone. Apple says these are free but it is $4.99 in the App Store?

    They are free if you have activated a new iOS 7 compatible device since 1st September 2013. When did you buy and activate your iPad and/or iPhone ? If on or after that date then try logging out of your account on that device by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if it then shows as free on it

  • I cannot find my pictures in iphoto after downloading and delating from memory card....

    I downloaded my pictures from memory card, and once it was done, iphoto asked me if I wanted to keep the pictures into the memory cart, I pressed no, and now I cannot find my pictures anywhere... Is there a way to find them back ?

    Hard to say
    Are they in last import?
    do not use your memory card until you resolve this - you may want to use software like Media Recover to recover the images on the card
    You can try Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library database
    For the future a best practice to is to never have any computer program (including iPhoto) delete the photos from the card but to import the photos and keep them and then after at least one successful backup cycle has completed and then reformat the card --  I use three very large (32 GB) cards in rotation so I do not reformat for typically a year or more giving me one more long term backup of my photos

  • I cannot pull up pictures from iphoto. I see them but when I click on them, I get an exclamation mark inside a triangle

    I cannot open pictures from iphoto.  I see them but when I click on them, I get this exclamation point inside a triangle

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Since i upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.3, i can't delete certain emails in Outlook 2011 for mac. help!, since i upgraded to Maverick on my MAC Pro, i cannot delete certain emails in Outlook 2011 for mac. help!

    Since I upgraded to OSx 10.9.3, there are certain emails in my OUtlook that i cannot delete. as soon as i click on the email and hit the delete key, i get an error and Outlook must be closed and restarted. this has happened since i upgraded to the new operating system about 1 week ago. help!

    Your bad charger probably damaged something inside as well.  Your hard drive directory may be damaged too.
    If you lack a backup, you should read this:

    Otherwise, bring it in for service.

    I have many duplicate pictures in iPhoto. Is there an easy way to identify and delete duplicates?

  • How do you delete a picture from iPhoto?

    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro and just added some pictures from an SD card to iPhoto to see how it works. However I can't work out how to delete a photo from the album. I only want to remove one so how do I do it?

    Albums are logical things holding pointers to the photo in the library
    Deleting a photo from an album does just that  it removes the photo from the album
    To delete it from the computer select it in an event, press the delete key, empty the iPhoto trash (iPhoto menu ==> empty trash) and empty the system trash

  • Cannot Delete Albums/Pictures On iPad

    I cannot delete the Albums/Pictures that I Synced from iTunes?

    Hope Apple simplifies this at some point. Us not so savvy computer users find going out of auto sync to fix a picture and then back into auto sync frightening. Just sure I'll lose something in that process.

  • Cannot send some pictures from IPhoto '08 using ichat

    In the panel near the Bottom see if in Owner and Permissions you are the Owner.

  • Cannot open older pictures in iPhoto library after upgrade

    Hey there!
    I just updated my iPhoto from 6.? to iPhoto '08. When I open it, I can access events & pictures that are almost a year old, but no older. When I open the iPhoto "package" on my desktop, I find all of my older photos, still intact. How can I access them from iPhoto '08? I can't import them, because when I open the import option, the iPhoto library is greyed out (un-select-able). Do I need to create a new library?

    I think part of my problem is that I edit in Photoshop & "save as"
    This is unnecessary.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
    Note that iPhoto sends +a copy+ of the file to Photoshop, so when you save be sure to use the Save command, not Save As... If you use Save As then you're creating a new file and iPhoto has no way of knowing about this new file. iPhoto is preserving your original anyway.
    The problem with renaming in iPhoto is that it doesn't change the name of the original file, unlike in Bridge.
    But are you trying to rename the Picture or rename the File? In iPhoto (and in photo apps in general) you add a title to the Photo, not rename the file.
    And if I edit in Photoshop & "save as" under a different name, does that show up in my iPhoto library, or do I have to import it?
    If you create a new file you need to save it to the desktop and afterwards import it.
    If you want to have different versions then duplicate the pic before sending it to Photoshop. Or use Aperture.
    Can I do that iPhoto? I'm thinking I could create a different library on my external, import older photos into that library, then remove it from the laptop library, is that possible?
    Yes. Easiest and best way: use iPhoto Library Manager to create the second library and then move the selected pics/albums/events to the archive library. It's the only way to do this and preserve all the versions and all the metadata.
    If I put a photo in the iPhoto trash & empty the trash, does that remove that photo from my laptop for good?
    Yes.
    Am I correct in assuming that the "modified" images are copies that iphoto has made & any editing I save is on those images?
    Close but not quite. When you edit a pic either with or via iPhoto, then iPhoto creates a copy of the original and saves the edits on the copy. If you subsequently re-edit with iPhoto it reverts to the original and applies a sum of the edits, so you avoid generational loss.
    So if I edit a photo and save it (not "save as"), but I want to revert to the original, iPhoto just accesses the copied image from the Original folder?
    It reverts to the Original file and destroys the modified copy.
