Deleting photos from HP Photosmart Studio

I guess it doesn't get any more basic than this!  I'm using a friend's Mac for the first time, and iPhoto is easy to use, but I can't find how to delete images from HP Photosmart Studio!

I have the same idiotic problem. How is there not a way to delete photos directly from HP Photosmart Studio? Pretty dumb if you ask me. So far my only solution will be to uninstall the POS software then re-install the most likely defunct printer drivers that were tied to it. What a crock! - There's not even any suport for the software, then again there isn't any direct support for anything at HP.  
If anyone figures out an easier way to simply delete photos from HP Photosmart Studio on a MAC let us know!

  • Time machine back up and deleting photos from macbook pro

    I have a macbook pro. I need to free some space on my hard drive. As I am a keen photographer I decided it was best to have at lest to back up in the event than one fails. I keep one off site at a friends. This way if the unthinkble happens.. fire, flood theft etc I do not lose all my images. To do this I require 2 hard drives. Having purchased the second I thought it would make sense to actually do a Time Machine back up as previous back ups were only of photos.
    A few seaches of different forums appeared to say that you cannot delete photos from your Mac as this will be just Mirrored on your next Timemachine back up. This makes sense as it is copying the Mac so anything not on there will not be on the Time Machine back up.
    SOLUTION : On your hard drive of the time machine back up create an addition folder or folders and using finder drag and drop from your macbook. This way it will not effect your Time Machine. You can replicate with the other hard drive. Having backed up away from the Time Machine will mean the photos do not get deleted by Time Machine after you have removed them from your Mac.
    I hope this makes sense! It is the first time I have posted :-)
    I would like to know if others have other solutions or use this method. I should say that the hard drive I use for the Time Machine if Mac formatted. It is a 2 TB WD My Book Studio. I purchased from the Apple store. It is not an apple product but is mac of the sleek aluminum and goes well with it. Having said that I keep it at a mates house!

    There are several concepts that may help you create a defense-in-depth approach to securing your valuable data.
    - Your data is much more valuable than external disk drives.  Do not hesitate to purchase the size and number of external drives you need for great (not just good) backup practices.
    - Always maintain at least two copies of any data.  This means never place live (offloaded) files on a backup volume, even in a separate partition.  If the drive fails the backup and the live files will go poof together. 
    - Do not rely on retrieving live files from a Time Machine backup.  Time Machine is for restoring files that were deleted or altered by mistake or for a full restore.  It is not for offloading live files.
    - Place the offloaded live files on a separate disk drive.  Then you will need to backup that live volume or if that offload volume fails then poof again.
    - You already some of this base covered.  Maintaing two copies (one backup) is good practice.  Maintaining more than two copies (two or more backups) is a better practice.  Maintaining multiple copies in multiple backup formats is a great practice.  Time Machine is great for restoring accidentally deleted or altered data but it is a complex system that is more prone to failure than simpler schemes such as cloning.  I recommend maintaining both Time Machine and cloned backups of the internal drive and cloned backups of offload drive.
    Backing up the offload disk is where partitioning the backup drive can be handy.  Create one partition for your Time Machine backup and another partition for your external drive backup.  Backup your internal drive with Time Machine and backup the offloaded files using cloning software such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!
    You could tell Time Machine to backup both your internal and external live files but then it gets tricky to do a full restore so I recommend using cloning software for backing up the external drive.
    When you purchase another external drive, make it a sufficiently large one so you can divide it into multiple large partitions.
    A good backup/offload map (two partitions per backup drive):
    - Internal drive —> Time Machine backup partition A on the backup drives.
    - External offload drive —> Clone backup partition B on the backup drives.
    - Backup drives 1 and  2 (one onsite and one offsite), each with partitions A and B.
    A great backup scheme includes three partitions on the large backup drives so you can backup the the internal drive with both Time Machine and CCC/SD:
    - Internal drive —> Time Machine backup partition A on the backup drives.
    - External offload drive —> Clone backup partition B on the backup drives.
    - Internal drive —> Clone backup to partition C on the backup drives.
    - Backup drives 1 and  2 (one onsite and one offsite), each with partitions A, B and C.
    A great feature of having a clone of your internal drive is if the internal drive crashes you can boot off of the backup disk while you replace the internal drive.  As mentioned above it also avoids Time Machine backup/restore problems.  I have had Time Machine full restores fail so I do not trust them as my only backup method but I find them very handy for restoring individual files.
    Create partitions sufficiently large enough for each backup source.  Time Machine should be about 50% or more larger than the volume it is backing up to leave room for the older incremental backups.  The cloned backup partitions need only be as large as the volumes they are backing up, or larger if you include incremental backups in your cloning scheme.  This means you may need 2 or 3 TB backup drives.  (4 TB drives are not yet reliable so avoid them.)

  • HT201269 I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6. Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?

    I am trying to save memory on my iPhone 4S/ ios6.
    1) Can I back up all photos to icloud and the external hard disk I normally use for photos? If I then delete photos from the iPhone do the get deleted on iCloud?
    2) Can I back up the newsstand to iCloud and save memory on the iPhone?
    3) Can I back up the bookshelf to icloud and save memory on the iPhone?

    1. What format is the external drive? It sounds like it's ina format that Macs can't write to. Is it a NAS or NTFS?
    2. Easiest thing: just move your iPhoto Library to the external
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • How do I recover a deleted photo from my iphone

    how do I recover a deleted photo from my iphone?

    The iPhone Photo Recovery allows you to recover data by two ways: Recover from iOS devices and recover from iTunes backup. No matter which way you choose, the first step is to download and install the software on your computer. Then follow the way below to get back your data.
    Part 1: Directly recover photo from iPhone 5/4S, iPad mini, iPad with Retina display, The New iPad, iPad 2 & iPod touch 5
    article: How to recover deleted photos from iPhone.
    Part 2: Recover Data Directly from iPhone 4/3GS, iPad 1 & iPod touch 4
    Part 3: Extract iTunes Backup to Recover Previous Data for All iOS Devices
    This data recovery mode lets you recover not only existing data in the backup, but also those data deleted from your device before you made the backup, as long as they were not overwritten.
    Note: Don't sync your device with iTunes when you realize that you've lost data, or the iTunes backup file will be updated after the sync, if you want to recover them through this recovery mode.

  • How do I delete photos from iPod Touch?  Some photos do not have the trash basket option!

    How do I delete photos from iPod Touch?  Some photos do not have the trash basket option!
    When I first synced my iPod Touch with my laptop, it uploaded a lot of photos onto the iPod.  I now wish to delete those but it does not seem as a straight forward option!

    For photos synced to the iPod you have to unsync them:
    To delete photos from your device
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.

  • Cannot delete photos from iPod touch

    I cannot delete photos from my ipod touch. There is no delete button.  help

    Why did Apple program it to function this way?! I synced photos from my computer to my iPod. I threw away my old computer when I bought a Macbook Pro. I want to delete my previously synced photos from my old computer. How can I unsynced the photos now? Can I ask Apple to allow synced photos to be deleted? Can I also ask Apple to allow me to add more photos on my iPod to the album of synced photos?

  • 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).

  • Ipod - Delete photos from ipod

    How do you delete photos from my ipod?

    Hi Golf43,
    You are in the wrong discussion forum. Go here and choose the correct category for Windows and your iPod model.
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=146
    I can tell you that on the Mac, you would take out the images on the folder of images you are syncing to, then sync the iPod to that folder again.
    So, if you didn't want any photos on your iPod, take out all the images from the folder on your HD that you are syncing to. I am not sure, but there might even be a checkbox in iTunes/iPod prefs to uncheck for photo sync.

  • Cannot delete photos from  iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried all solutions using Itunes and it doesn't delete them from iphone

    Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos.  Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start

    I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows.  Sync is unselected.  It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work.  It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases).  If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

  • How to delete photos from synced albums?

    Hi,
    after a holiday I sync all photos taken with my iPad 1. I want to delete bad photos and resync them with my PC. But I can't delete photos from my iPad/iPhone. Is there any possibility to delete single photos?
    Thanks

    You can't delete photos synced from your computer directly on your phone, they are deleted by changing your photo sync selection when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    You can remove all photos that you synced from your computer by selecting and syncing just an empty folder.
    If you want to keep some of them on your phone then you will either need to use a third-party app to copy them back to your computer so that you can then include them in the photo sync ; or download a third-party photo management app on your phone such as Photo Manager Pro which you can copy the photos that you want to keep to (that app can copy photos to/from the Photos app and your computer) and then sync an empty folder to Photos

  • Unable to delete photos from iPad with Image Capture or PhoneView

    I recently downloaded about 50GB of photos to my iPad. They are RAW+JPG. Some of the RAWs are from a new camera that does not have RAW support on the Mac yet.
    Using Image Capture I downloaded all the photos to my Mac. They all have the green check-mark next to them indicating they have been downloaded.
    After confirming that the images transferred without becoming corrupted, I went back to Image Capture and selected all, then hit the Delete button. I confirmed that I really want to delete them all permanently.
    Then a little floating window appears that says "Deleting..." and it stays like that for a long time. Eventually Image Capture simply loses its connection with the Mac and simply leaves this console message:
    5/22/12 10:58:38.494 AM com.apple.launchd.peruser.503: ([0x0-0x91091].com.apple.PTPCamera[9744]) Exited with code: 255
    Back on the iPad, I see that some of the JPEG-format photos have been deleted while the RAWs that went with them are still there. Meanwhile for many others, both the RAW & JPEG both still remain.
    Any ideas what might cause this? Is it because the Mac doesn't yet have support for the RAW file and therefore doesn't recognize it as an "image" file?

  • Unable to delete photos from iPhone 5 Model MD655LL/A

    My wife needs to free up some space on her iPhone so she can take more photos and videos.  She has an iPhone 5 Model MD655LL/A.  In General > About the device shows a Capacity of 12.7 GB and Available 1.1 GB.  She has 9 videos and 1,488 photos on this phone. She also pays about $4 a month for iCloud storage.
    I've connected this device to our Mac and to one of our PCs.  We are unable to remove the photos from this phone.  Upon selecting a photo from any collection, I can see the trash can icon on the lower right, but it is greyed out.
    Now, I've read that Apple makes it impossible to delete the photos that are synced to the iCloud.  This makes sense, since the syncing process would add the photo back to your device if it's not detected in the cloud.  Our dilemma is this.  She needs additional space on her phone. She thought that the iCloud service would provide her with additional space beyond the limitations of her phone where she could store photos without using up her phone's storage space.  Based on what I briefly read, it appears that we misunderstood the iCloud storage, at least in this regard.
    Here is what I need to be able to do.
    1. Back up the photos from her phone to one of our devices.  Either the Mac or the PC, it makes no difference to me.
    2. Then delete the photos from her phone, but retain them on the device where we backed them up.
    I expected to be able to use Windows Explorer on the PC in Windows 7.  But upon connecting the phone to the PC, there is no directory to the phone that shows me the image contents.  Instead, there is a folder under "Computer" named "iCloud Photos". Selecting that shows a message where I expected to see a listing of contents on the device, which reads "iCloud Photos is not enabled" followed by a link "Open iCloud Control Panel".  Selecting that link opens the iCloud dialog, showing iCloud Storage of 182.53 GB of 200 GB available.
    Selecting the checkbox next to Photos and choosing the Options button just shows a dialog that lets me choose the iCloud Photos Location on my PC.  But I don't see a list of the photos.
    3.  Where is a dialog that I can use to drag-and-drop in Windows 7 from the phone to a directory using Windows Explorer?
    I need detailed, step-by-step instructions for this.  Do we just need to cancel the iCloud account?  The storage doesn't do us any good if upon deleting a photo from the iCloud the syncing process will delete photos from our computers and our phone.  Do we need to configure the iCloud account differently?  Also, how can we tell if a photo is locked in the cloud, and thereby permanently affixed to her iPhone.
    Thanks for helping us.  This has been very frustrating.

    The "delete after Import" message will not always appear after the import.  It appears, if you are importing from a camera or card, but I do not see it, when I import from a mobile device with iCloud Photo Library enabled and into a System Photo Library, that also uses iCloud Photo Library.
    See the Photos Help:  https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht6c803201
    If a message asks whether you want to delete or keep the photos on your camera after they’re imported, click Delete Items to remove the photos, or click Keep Items to keep them on the camera.
    Unfortunately, this Help text does not state exactly, when it will be possible to delete after import and when not.

  • How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

    Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?
    finding it hard to get a straight answer on this, so maybe have to go to a local shop and find out.

    Refer to this Faq.
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
    replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
    make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
    Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
    an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Yes I want to know the answer too.
    If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
    Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
    I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
    and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
    again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
    will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
    if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
    and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

  • Unable to delete photos from my ipad2 .

    I am unable to delete photos from my ipad2. I am able to select the photos to delete but when I press the red delete button nothing happens. Is anyone else having this experience? Is there a known problem. Is there a solution?

    You don't say what type of photos - were they taken with the iPad or synced from your computer ?
    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/wesites 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. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing (if you were able to delete them directly on the iPad, then the next time you synced photos they would be put back onto the iPad, unless you remembered to also remove them from your computer).
