How can I batch delete photos

My son has thousands of thumbnails from wallpapers, etc. They're taking up too much space and we'd like to delete them. I only see a one by one method for photo deletion. Is there a way to do this in batch mode or the whole folder?  Anyway to use something on my Win7 PC and connect to the iTouch as if it is was USB storage?  one by one for 2600 would be painful.  thanks.

The iTouch does have a Camera Roll.  That is for pictures taken with the iPod.  If you take a picture with the iPod the Camera Roll will show up.  In your case you are talking about pictures taken elsewhere and synced to the iPod.  To remove them, simply delete them from your SyncIpod folder on your PC using Windows Explorer, sync the iPod, and they will be gone.

    Can I batch delete photos from iPad and if so how?

    I would add that if you don't want to delete the photos from your computer and want them off your iPad, then (1) create a duplicate folder of the photos to be deleted on your computer (select the folder, then cmd-D), (2) rename the duplicate to something else (thus retaining your computer's photos under a different name), and (3) opening the original folder--the one that was synced to the iPad originally -- and drag its contents to trash. Don't drag the FOLDER to trash---drag its CONTENTS to trash. Now resync this empty folder to your iPad. The photos on the iPad will go away, but you still have them on your computer. I know this is clunky but it works. It sure your be nice to allow you to delete individual photos from a synced folder on the iPad! (and iPhone)

    If they were photos taken with your iPhone and you have Photo Stream activated through iCloud they are in the cloud. If not - they are in the wind.

    how can i retrieve deleted photos from my iphone 5c.

    Restore your iPhone from the last backup you made before you deleted the photos from the iPhone. An iCloud backup (or an iTunes backup) saves the content of the camera roll.

  • How can i recover deleted photos from my iphone 5 - help!!

    How can i recover deleted photos from my iphone 5 - help!!
    I have tried many online programs but nothing seems to recover the last 60 photos i accidentally deleted.

    i have i cloud but because my phone memory had been so full lately i believe it wasnt being backed up?
    the last back up noted on my phone is 9 nov 2013 - i deleted the photos just on monday - does this mean i can still recover them somehow?
    they were never imported to a comp but yes the pics were saved on my photo stream buti acutally first deleted off photo stream. what i did was create a folder within my albums then added the 60 photos to the album, then deleted 1 off photo stream to test and it didnt delete from my new folder, then deleted all off photo stream and then i thought i could delete off camera roll, then did that and realised it also deleted off my new folder created - so was left with nothing!
    if you know anyway pls help?

  • How can I recover deleted photos from my camera roll?

    How can I recover deleted photos from my camera roll and my photo stream?
    Please, help me!

    I finally got up with a solution.
    All you need is the photo file from your last backup.
    You can extract this file from your backup by using iBackupbot for itunes. Get this via:
    http://www.icopybot.com/itunes-backup-manager.htm
    Once you get this file you extract the photos in form of original database file. The screenshots on the website will help you to know how to extract the files.
    Okay so now when you've got the photo file you simply need to SSH into your phone to /private/var/mobile/Library/photo were you'll already see a photo file.
    Replace the old photo file that you've extracted from the backup by the one that already exist in.
    Don't forget to keep an extra copy of the new photo file if in case you go wrong somewhere.
    It worked for me and I hope it works for you too.
    Thanks mende1, you were indirectly helpful.

    You cannot, unless they were there at last backup.  You can try restoring from backup, losing anything done since the last sync.

    Well, you might still have chances to recover the deleted iPhone photos. Not from iPhone or iTunes, just from your Mac machine. It just depends on when your deletion happens, before or after your most recent sync? If this happened after that, then probably you could rely on this data recovery program to get the lost photos back. Regards.
    If she backed up after the photos were sent, then try restoring from backup. Make sure that you turn off automatic syncing first before you connect. Go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says Prevent iPod touch.

  • HT4528 how can you recover deleted photos from the iPhone hard drive?

    Is there anyway possible i can recover my deleted photos from my iphone hard drive for free?

    You can't for two reasons: First, the iPhone doesn't have a hard drive. Second, there is no Trash folder, so once something is deleted it is gone forever. If you were foresighted enough to sync your phone regularly the photos should still be in the app you used for managing photos from digital cameras on your computer, and they are also in the iPhone backup on your computer. If you enabled Photo Stream they are also in iCloud. But if you didn't take advantage of any of these backup options you are out of luck.

  • How can I permanently delete photos from my boyfriends phone??

    Hi all,
    My boyfriend has photos of me that I dont want him to have.
    I've asked him to delete them but he jokes that he will.... eventually.
    He has an iPhone 4S. I want to permanently delete some photos he has, I dont want him to be able to do some kind of sync or backup & have them again.
    If I deleted them from his iTunes.. his desktop picture folders.. his PC recycle bin AND deleted them off his phone, will he still be able to find them?? Also if he does an update in the future, will they somehow appear again? And how can I know if he has synced them to iCloud/set up iCloud?
    Thanks in advance

    Theyre all in his Camera Roll. I've never downloaded/updated the iCloud control panel on my pc,
    So he syncs only to your PC?
    I dont think he has the Shared Photo Stream option on, but I'll check. If he does have it, is it simple to access it?
    Open the Photos app, tap Shared at bottom to see any Shared Photo Streams.
    My Photo Stream is in Albums.

  • How can I permantely delete photos from iPhoto in order to free up space on my MacBook Air?

    I am trying to delete photos (which I have backed up on an external drive) from my MacBook Air in order to free up storage space.  When I simply drag the photos into the trash and empty, I see no difference in the amount of storage.  I also read somewhere that they are also stored in iPhoto, so I have tried to delete them in small batches, only to return to the trash bin and find that the remaining (undeleted) ones are missing.  What's going on with this?
    I have a MacBook Air (late 2010)

    Are you aware that iPhoto has its own trash area?  Find it on the left sidebar.  Go there and empty the iPhoto trash.

  • How can I batch delete playlists?

    When I added my music to iTunes, it created a playlist for every subfolder in my media directory and now I have a playlist for each artist.  Since it's indexed by artist anyway this seems silly. Please help, I have hundreds of playlists I don't want.  The only way I can see to delete them is by selecting each individually in the side pane and pressing the delete key. Is there a faster way?  I'm new to iTunes, but familiar with my computer's directory structure. I have iTunes version 10.5.2.11.

    I suspect you are suffering with a recent bug/change of behaviour with respect to .m3u files. Previously these were ignored when scanning folders. A second bug (since repaired) meant that at one time the new playlists were created for each .m3u file, but no tracks were are actually added to it.
    I've wrote a couple of scripts to help with the initial problems:
    KillEmptyPlaylists - Cleans up any empty playlists that iTunes created while scanning your folders.
    ImportM3U - Imports any M3U playlists that you want to import.
    It ought to be possible to tweak KillEmptyPlaylists in some fashion, assuming there is some easy way to distinguish the playlists that you want to delete from those that should be kept. How many do you want to keep? For instance if all the keepers could be shifted into a folder then deleting all the remaining top level playlists might be quite easy. Inspecting each playlist and deleting those that only feature tracks by a single artist is feasible, but could get become complicated if Artist and Album Artist haven't been used completely consistently.
    Going forward, you might find using iTunes Folder Watch prefereable to using iTunes to rescan its own folders, assuming that is what you are doing.
    Also you could search and destroy any .m3u files in your media folders that you no longer have a use for.
