Delete in iPhoto - Sync iPad - why reimport?

I know the answer must be somewhere, cannot find it though. I delete pictures in iPhoto, then do a sync with my iPad. The pictures I have deleted come back on the importscreen with the question if I want to import these pictures on the iPad. No! Those are the pictures I deleted and want to have gone from the iPad as well. This could go on and on?

The system is designed so that the iPad is a slave of the Mac and iPhoto. It assumes that you will want to preserve the high quality images in iPhoto and simply use the low quality preview images on your iPad. If you don't want that don't use iPhoto.

Delete photos iPhoto on ipad?

Is there an easy way to delete photos in iPhoto on an iPad? Maybe a better question is: is there any way?

The iPhoto for iOS forum is here

App on ipad keeps crashing during update, can't delete it or sync ipad

It's a game off of Big Fish Games, called The Red Riding Hood Sisters: Dark Parables. I was able to load it properly and play it for a bit. When it asked me to update it, I did, but it barely started before it said it couldn't be updated. It's still shaded though, and every time I click on it, it says it's unable to download. It doesn't give any reason. Because of this, I can't sync anything on my ipad. It's constantly on step three of transferring my purchases in itunes, and I can't edit any apps that I downloaded after this started happening.
Note that I have the first genertion ipad, so there is a chance that it's just too old and I have to give it up. I don't actually expect Apple to pay any attention to anyone who doesn't buy their new things...

Ah ... yes ..... it does have a power button. Every iPad has the same sleep/power button in the same place on the iPad. I'm happy that you found a solution .... but maybe you should download this for reference.

1.) How do I organized my photo album on my ipad?
2.) How do I remove an album on my ipad?
3.) i have taken over 1,000 photos on ipad, now it won't sync stuff to the ipad because it said there is not enough space. I want to delete some past synced photos from the computer to create space, but I don't know how to find it on computer. It sycned a portion of a file onto the ipad which is useless to me so I want to delete it all & start fresh.
4.) I was thinking about copying some of those photos over so it would show up as new data maybe then it would sync to my ipad as a new & competed album. Or will this create more problem because it would only be creating more photos?
5.) By the way, I don't know how to use dropbox or anything like it, so I take photos of some files & web screen that I use regularly to always have access regardless of internet access. That is why I have so many photos. But I want to be able to separate & organized them by files, web screens, or topics. I also want to be able to delete & update as needed.
6.) If needed I am willing to delete 4 G of downloaded app to create space. Will this help the space issue? Also could I just leave the downloaded app to my computer only & only sync to to ipad as needed, since I don't need app as regularly. I NEED "photo" ALL of the TIME! I am out in the field, instead of carrying stack & stack of papers, I carry ipad with photo of these daily needed papers!

1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

Photos on iPad and iPhone as Events that i have already deleted in iPhoto and can't find out how to delete?!

I had an album on my iPad that didn't have a delete option. I was able to finally remove everything by connecting the iPad to iTunes and going to the Photos tab. Select sync photos. It will ask you if you want to replace all photo on iPad with sync photos. Apply the setting and then un-sync photo again. It will then remove all photos on iPad starting with a clean slate.
Be sure to backup all your photos before doing this. Hope that helps.

Deleting photo's synced to iPad?

I need to delete photographs previously synced from my Mac to my iPad in order to free up space to download IOS7.
The delete button on the iPad does not do this. I am told that I need to connect the iPad to the Mac and proceed from there.
I have done so but am unsure as to how to proceed once connected. Does one do this in iTunes on the Mac?
Obviously the photo's on the Mac need to remain intact while those on the iPad are deleted.

If i import photos from my ipad to iphoto for mac, will deleting them from my ipad also remove them from my mac?

If i import photos from my ipad to iphoto for mac, will deleting them from my ipad also remove them from my mac?

No. They will remain on the Mac. That's one of the reasons why it's a good idea to import your treasured photos. If something happens to the iPad, you still have your photos.

HT201317 If I delete photos from my iPad,will those photos be deleted in my iPhoto albums?

If I delete photos from my ipad, will those photos be deleted from my iphoto albums?

I assume the photos have made it onto the iPad through syncing with the computer with iTunes, yes?
Then you should sync again, but first remove the photos you don't want on the iPad anymore from the selection of photos to be sync'd.
You can delete them on the iPad, but (a) next time you're syncing they'll be back there again unless you excluded them then, and (b) you probably need the space on the iPad for stuff that's also coming from the computer via sync - so then you can do it all at once by modufying the selection of what shall be sync'd.
Hint: This is the forum for iPhoto as in "on the Mac". Since you're referring to iPhoto for iOS and seem to have a PC, not a Mac, you should post in the dedicated forum for iPhoto for iOS.

I need more space on my ipad. If I delete photos on my ipad, will they be removed from my pc in iphoto? I'm afraid to loose any pictures.

How to restore the option to sync recent photos from iPhoto to iPad?

How to restore the option to sync recent photos from iPhoto to iPad?
I have Yosemite 10.10.2 running on a 2008 iMac
I have an iPad MD513B/A running version 8.1.2
On the iMac iPhoto is version 9.5.1, and iTunes is 12.0.1.26
I used to be able to sync photos from iPhoto (last 3 Events) through iTunes to iPad.
Where has that option gone? iTunes now only allows me to do now is to get pictures from the cloud to the iPad and I haven't prepared for that. So I don't have any pictures on my iPad to show my folks.
I can sync from iPhoto to my Classic iPod but that option has been removed from iTunes for the iPad by the look of it. I want it back so I can manage what I download to my iPAD.
Please can someone advise me how to restore the option to sync my recent photos from iPhoto to iPad.

Where has that option gone? iTunes now only allows me to do now is to get pictures from the cloud to the iPad and I haven't prepared for that. So I don't have any pictures on my iPad to show my folks.
Have you enabled iCloud Photo Library (Beta) on your iPad? Switching on the iCloud Photo Library (Beta) disables the syncing of Photos with iTunes.
On your iPad check the Settings > Photos&Camera. Disable "iCloud Photo Library (Beta)", if you want to sync your photos with iTunes or upload your photos using "My Photo Stream".
On the iMac iPhoto is version 9.5.1,
Is there a reason why you did not update to iPhoto 9.6? That is the version, that includes the compatibility updates for Yosemite.

When i add a book, music or video to ipad via itunes it keeps trying to add deleted files on the ipad previously. Why?

No major problem, just takes a lot of unecessary time. Whenever i do either of the following functions of adding a video, book, or a music file. Itunes keeps checking for the previously deleted files on the ipad and i dont know why. My problem is that if i just want to add ONE single file i will take more time because it does that silly thing. Any suggestion why this happens and how can be fixed?
My current settings are:
(TICK) Prevent ipad from syncing automatically,
(TICK) Manually manage music and videos,

If it's any consolation i've just had a similar thing happen. Went to add a playlist and it wiped 35 gig of music off my iPod touch 64g in a nanosecond. I've got the latest iTunes and osx but do not back up because i keep different styles of music (and loads of it) in separate libraries and devices which i don't want mixed together. All my stuff is burned from cd so it's not lost for good and i've got a hard drive with the "lost" mp3 music on it but even so it will take literally weeks to prune the tracks for my iPod to be the same again. Why do they make it so difficult to manage your music on these things. I have massive amounts of music on my computer so autofill is a disastrous unusable gimmick to me. The whole thing seems to be aimed at 9 year old kids with about 6 mp3's on their phone rather than serious music lovers (for example accessing EQ is a joke let alone the lack of a manual option). I'm a dj and use apple for that reason but to be honest i'm beginning to wonder why. I'm absolutely livid. The weird thing is that my mac still shows the titles of the missing tunes in the 'on my device' window but as my macbook storage display shows no increase i'm pretty sure it's all gone. Nightmare. I have no confidence in this device anymore and could barely use the previous osx 8.2 anyway. Why they have to change it every ten minutes is beyond me. As the old saying goes 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' but this format just gets more broken every time they update. An absolute disgrace. Why not just drag and drop or delete. No wonder the iPod is said to be a dying device, it's for music, it is not a phone. Not fit for purpose anymore. I can't be bothered to read a massive 'how to use' article every update. Good technology should be easier and more intuitive with each new version. I suppose i'll have to phone apple at my expense to find out what's going on, or maybe that's the whole idea. Very very very not happy.

Why can't I delete uploaded photos on iPad 2

Why can't I delete uploaded photos on iPad 2. I can select and share but the delete icon is "grayed" out

You can only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc directly in the iPad's Photos app.
For photos that were synced from your computer you will need to move/remove/de-select them from where they were synced from on your computer and re-sync - or if you want to delete all synced photos then you might be able to do so by swiping across the 'Photo Library' line in Settings > General > Usage > Photos & Camera (that should give a 'Delete' button, but I haven't tried tapping it to see if it works).

How do I delete photos from an IPad that was synced with a Macbook?

Hope someone on here can help!
We own both a Macbook and an IPad. When we linked them, the IPad brought over ALL (like, around 2000) photos from the Macbook. I would like to delete these from the IPad, but it won't let me.
Any suggestions on what I need to do?
Thanks!
