Help finding deleting Photostream photos!!

A few weeks ago I manually deleted most of my Photostream on my iPhone 5S from the late spring/summer so I could make room on my phone for ios8...I thought a copy of the photos in my Photostream would be saved in the cloud. Big mistake. That's not how Photostream works I guess. My photos were permanently deleted from my Photostream everywhere. I have since had to completely restore my phone due to the problems with the 8.01 ios update. Is it possible to go back and find deleted photos from the past?
Note: In my iphoto on my macbook, I used to have a folder for each month of photostream photos (like June 2014 Photosteam, etc.) that automatically synced. Now, because I deleted my Photostream photos, they are no longer there. At some point in time these photos WERE on my camera roll but I deleted them as well because I thought they were in the photo stream...
Anyway, I am clearly confused and want to get my photos back! HELP!!! Please!!!!

Once you delete, and delete from PhotoStream without saving to a non-PhotoStream album, the photos are gone and not recoverable.  Before deleting from PhotoStream, or at least monthly for that matter, it best to save everything to a separate album or folder.  That protects the content as PhotoStream is volatile storage and will be subject not only to your deleting but also iCloud delete-by-rules based on quantity and age of the contents.
Not great news for you but there just isn't anything to do when deletion has been done across the board.

    how to delete photostream photos from iphone4?

    Just look at the many other threads on this subject.  See the 'More Like This' box on the right hand side?
    Basically, you can only delete all or none.  To delete all, reset your Photostream on iCloud.com and switch off PS on your device.
    You can temporarily remove the photos by switching off PS on your device, but when you switch it back on, the photos will return unless you reset as previously mentioned.

    There is a slight chance that those images may be cached in icloud backup, if they were in camera roll or library OP would not be here would he, T.

  • Finding/Deleting Synced Photos on Computer

    The community responses have not helped me resolve my deleting/ Finding my synced photos on my computer.  Please advise me as to where and how to locate tab for photos at iTunes (not sure what page it is on)  and any other pertinent instructions as to how to delete a number of synced photos on my iPad 4.  As I am not computer/iPad knowledgeable, exact details are much appreciated.  Thank you.

    It is really pretty straight forward. This will delete all of the synced photos on your iPad.
    Connect your iPad to your computer with the cable.
    Launch iTunes - it it does not start up on its own.
    Make sure that you see the sidebar on the left side, and you can ensure that you see it, by going to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu.
    Click on your iPad name under the Devices heading in the left sidebar.
    Click on the Photos Tab at the top of the iTunes window on the right side
    Uncheck the box next to Sync Photos from heading
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes in order to initiate the sync.

  • Deleted photostream photos keep reappearing in photo stream.

    If I delete a photo from my photostream must both my iPhones be connected to the Internet at time of deletion for it to completely delete? I've deleted a few photos from photostream and they keep reappearing. Photos were removed from camera roll.

  • Deleting photostream photos from Mac within iPhoto does not remove photos from all devices.

    I have photostream activated on my iPhone 5s (iOS 8.1) to backup all my photos to iCloud. This works great! When I open iPhoto, the stream is automatically updated and my photos appear. If I also delete a photo from my iPhone, the stream is once again updated and the photo disappears.
    However, if I delete the photo via iPhoto via the Photostream tab on my Mac, the photostream is not updated and the photo remains on my iPhone, as well as online via icloud.com. i.e it works one way, but not the other.
    Am I doing something wrong?

    When you delete a photo from "My Photo Stream" in the iCloud section in iPhoto on your Mac, it will be removed from "My Photo Stream" in iCloud, and should be removed from the Photo Stream on all devices. However, the photos already downloaded to the devices from My Photo Stream will not be deleted.If automatic download is enabled on your iPhone, the photos will stay on your iPhone,

  • Deleting photostream photos

    So I have quite a backlog of junk photos saved on my phone.  I have been in the process of deleting them today, but they do not seem to delete from my photostream as well.  Do I have to delete camera roll and photostream photos seperately, even though my photostream photos are sourced from my camera roll?

    Yes, you have to delete them separately.  Deleting them from one will not delete them from the other.  To speed things up, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to delete, then tap Delete.

  • Can you help me delete imported photos from iPhone (4s) running ios 7?

    I made (what appears to be) the mistake of importing photos from my PC to my new iPhone 4s using itunes.  They now seem to be permanent occupants.  I can select them (in the "Moments" view in the Photos app)  but the trash can on lower right is always grayed out.  It appears that in ios 6 they could be deleted in the Settings/General/Usage (I also synced over some music which is deletable here).  Can anyone help me? 

    Thank you razmee, I will give that a shot and get back to you.  I was just looking at that grayed out trashcan icon an thinking there was probably a way to light it up.

  • Help finding deleted emails

    I am a new user to Mail 5.
    I had imported all of my mail boxes and emails from Entourage -- several years worth.
    Subsequent to that I have switched ISPs which required some adjustments to how email accounts were accessed.
    I had continuing problems with one account that would not log on and download emails. The only solution was to delete the email account completely and install it new. The new account works.
    However, all of those old emails from that account were deleted.
    Can anyone suggest a way to retreive those old emails?
    I have time machine installed, so in theory, those old emails could be accessed if I knw how.
    What I don't want to do is to reinstate the earlier version of Mail itself since the new settings work and I have also received emails my all my accounts (12) which would be overwriten by such a global change.
    What I am seeking to do is to meld the old emails into the new account so all are accessable now.
    Any suggestions?

    I have always set this account to delete emails from gmail after a period of about a week.
    The emails that I need to recover go back for serveral years and were only kept on my local computer.
    1. Only a POP account can be set to delete from Server after a specified period has elapsed, if you have that option you have not set an Imap account.
    2. Your mail is almost certainly lost unless you had a backup.
    One possibility, do you still have the Entourage data database?

  • Can someone help in deleting synced photos from iPhone4?

    I have some pictures on my iphone4 that were synced from computer A.  That computer is no longer available...Is there a way to delete them by using a different computer to un-sync them.  They cannot be deleted directly from the phone either.

    Yes.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Did you faile to do this?
    Not good at all.
    You can e-mail the pics to yourself.  They will never be of the original quality as they are reduced in quality when synced to iphone.

  • Can you help me delete photo library & duplicate photo library

    Hi,
    I don't know what I did, but I somehow copied 44 of my daughter's music images into my photo library and then created a duplicate with 43 images.  These 87 images are taking up room and there is no obvious way to delete them. 
    Here's what happens when I touch camera roll it brings me to the photo library -- where 43 out of 44 images are hers:
    I click edit and the only options are share via email, faceboook, twitter, etc. or add to which leads to create a new album.  I don't want to do any of this.  I just want to delete them to make room.
    The same options apply for the Duplicate album as well.
    Can you help me delete the photo library and the duplicate library on my phone?  I only want to keep one video in the camera roll and all of the rest of the images can go.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for your response.  I think you just isolated my issue -- I was trying to upload music and somehow wound up syncing my daughter's photos to my iphone.  I don't know how to delete them because not all of the album/folders are appearing there.  Do you have any suggestions on how to find them?

  • How can I delete those photos that are just plain oops from my photo stream on all of my devices.  The photo stream does not have a delete option on the iPhone

    please help me delete the photos from my iPhone in photo stream that are on my iCloud server.  It is not clear how to delete

    I just looked at mine. When I go into photostream, and click on a photo, on the bottom right corner I have a trash can.
    I have iPhone 5 running 6.0.2

  • How do you delete a photo album on new iPad?

    Need help to delete a photo album.   Also, is there a way to easily select more than one but less than all photos in an album?

    Why is a post pc device dependent on a pc to erase images?
    In the case of photos it is not a question of the type of device, but of the application you are using. Both iPhoto and Photos app are applications that allow albums to be uploaded and mirrored from your Mac. If you do not want the mirroring, don't use this feature - use the Photos Stream to upload. Then you can delete.
