Hello Kate,
Follow these steps to delete the photos on your iPhone that were synced over from your computer (be sure to just check albums that you want to sync or don't do not check any albums if you don't want any photos synced over):
To delete synced photos and videos
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.

    There is a checkbox on the 'info' tab in iTunes that will allow you to overwrite the address book on the phone with the one from the computer on the next sync.

    how can i delete my old icloud account from my iphone

    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can I delete unwanted/inaccurate email addresses from the iPhone cache?

    How can I delete old / unwanted / inaccurate email addresses from the "suggestions cache" that keep popping up the moment I type in the first letter in on a fresh email address box?
    This is driving me mad! The London Store Apple Genius can only suggest either deleting my email account and then recreating it or totally reseting the iPhone to the original factory settings and then resynching it to my MacBook Pro to get everything back into the iPhone. However, he's not sure that this cache is not stored on the MacBook Pro during synching somewhere so I may well end up where I started! Allan Sampson answered my last "Help" topic, so I'm hoping he can beat the Apple Store Genius again!
    Over to the Forum and Allan.

    Hi Kelvin and everyone with the same problem.
    This used to be me and the painful solution ( for PC users ) is:
    Buy a Mac!
    Everything "talks" to each other and it all interfaces fine with the business world.
    Once you've adjusted to the ( much better ) Mac "culture" it all becomes clear and the
    backup service and advice is second to none. Not only that, everything works!
    Hope this helps......

  • How can I delete an old apple id from an iPhone 4, 8.1.3 without password?

    I was given an iPhone 4 by my daughters friend, I use it for my sons to play games on only, its not connected to our phone service, but his apple id is still associated with the phone and after I updated the phone, it keeps asking me for his password, which I do not know nor can I get in touch with him to find out. It is using his apple id for an iCloud account, which I have never used.  I sync the phone with iTunes on my iMac with my apple id and my kids can purchase things using my ID, but his is still coming up and its frustrating my kids, lol, because every 2 seconds a prompt comes up to enter the Apple ID password for his email to sign into iCloud.  Not sure why its doing it more now, maybe because of the update?? Its version IOS 8.1.3. Please help me and help me delete and disassociate his account from this phone!  Thanks!

    And by the way, this was NOT a lost or stolen phone, it was given to my daughter who then gave it to her brothers to play games on.  It was legally obtained!

  • How can I delete my old user ID from my iPhone?, How can I delete my old user ID from my iPhone?

    I have changed my provider so have a new address.  My iPhone automatically gives my old apple ID and wants me to put in the password.  I don't have a password for it but I cant use my ner username and password.  Any ideas how I can delete my old username off my iPhone apple ID?  My new name and password works on my desktop and my iPad.

    Did you update your Apple ID, or did you create a new one? To change the Apple ID signed in on the phone, see this support document. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
    If you purchased apps under the old ID, they are forever locked to that ID. You will need that information to update the apps, or you will need to delete them and redownload them.

  • How can i delete photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s?

    On accident, I synced pictures from my computer onto my phone. I have many pictures on my computer and now it is taking up a lot of space on my phone. The problem is i dont know how to get the pictures off my phone now. The pictures are in knew files, and there is no opption on the phone to delete the pictures or its folder. Can anyone help??

    Try connecting the phone to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, uncheck Sync Photos, then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  Then check your phone to see if any photos library photos remain.  If they do, check Sync Photo again and sync.  If prompted about removing existing photos on your phone, accept.  This should remove the older photos and replace them with the photos on your computer (without duplicates).  After doing this, if you don't want any of these photos on your phone, uncheck Sync Photos and sync again to remove them.
