How do I access and delete photos from Photo Stream

I am using Yosemite 10.10.3. Apple TV (3rd gen) screen saver shows older photos that I have deleted from the photos program but are apparently still in Photo Stream. How do I access and delete these from Photo Stream?
Thanks

How do I access and delete file from "Save to Your Online Account" area.

I just downloaded the trial version of Acrobat XI. I created a PDF file with sensitive information that I thought would be saved only to my computer but noticed that it was saved to my "online account."
I've searched and found how to reset that feature but I need to know how to access that Online Account and remove my file permanently from it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated (and necessary if I'm to purchase this tool).

That's what it looks like to me, too. It was only saved on my computer. The reason I thought it might be saved online somewhere is because, when I saved the file, there was a box checked that said "Save To Your Online Account." What does this mean then?
Also, when I open the Acrobat application, the file is listed there under Recent Files and it doesn't give me a way to clear the recent file list.
My goal is to make sure that my sensitive information is not being stored somewhere, anywhere online with Adobe or anyone else. The only place I want that file to appear is in the documents file of my computer.

I used Duplicate Annihilator to isolate dups in iPhoto on my iMac. At the end it told me it had marked the word duplicate in the comments / description field. How do I find and delete the marked photos?

File -> New Smart Album
Description -> contains -> Duplicate
will find them.
Then the keystroke to delete depends on which version of iPhoto you have. All the keyboard shortcuts are under the Help menu.

Alternatively, be sure your page thumbnails panel is open, and click on the icon highlighted in this image, just under the heading.
You will see a dropdown with the options you need.

My hard driver is apparently full - but it is full of "other" files. I have cleared downloads and removed my music and pictures, but it still thinks it is full - how do I access and delete the files?

I am having real trouble with the mac book air and i dont know what to do. It thinks it is full, i get warning messages every day, but when i check how the storage is being used it is 45.79 GB of "other" and I can't work out where to locate and delete these files. I have removed all my music and pictures, there are nearly no documents on the bloody thing, i have cleared the downloads, I have run a cc cleaner programme but nothing seems to touch this "other" amount. Its so annoying as it is getting to a point where i can't use the computer properly anymore. Do you have any clue what it could be or how i can deal with it?
It did this last year but not as bad, i never solved it then i just removed all my own files but now "other" is taking that space too. On a windows computer you would be able to click through and view what was taking up the space but you can't seem to do that on a mac. could it be a virus that makes the hard driver think it is full?
Any ideas what I can do?

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

How do I identify and delete duplicates from itunes?

Try as I might I cant figure it out. Googling tells me nothing.

FreshaliciousOne wrote:
I understand that i can manually delete duplicates one by one. Is there a way to automate the process? I have an extensive library that is full of duplicates.
The problem you may face with pursuing automated approaches is that the dupicate check occurs on the basis of song title alone. Automating the removal would have it choosing between different versions of the same song - when you may actually want both since they aren't true duplicates.
Examples:
One is "unplugged" and the other is electric
One is the studio version and the other is live
One is the original version and the other is remastered
One approach to delte multiple ones is to change the sort to being a manner that makes true duplicates more evident. (Album by artist, or date, date added, or whatever makes sense for your library.)
Then you could paint multiple ones and delete them at once. (Select the first one, hold the shift key, then select the last one that you want to delete. Then press the delete or backspace key)
You will likely have to do this more than once, but it should/may reduce the amount of manual actions while avoiding the concern of songs misperceived as duplicate being deleted.

How can I find and delete videos from iPhoto?

When I use iMovie to create a video for You Tube the program loads every bit of video I have in iPhoto. I have attempted to delete all of the old, unused, videos but they do not all appear in the library list. I have several videos that come up in iMpovie that I can't find in iPhoto. Thanks for your help.
Stu

Use the serach feature at the bottom of iPhoto and enter "movie". All movie files imported into iPhoto are automatically given a keyword, movie.
Or you can create a smart album with the following criteria: Keyword is movie. Select all the movie files and use the key combination Option+Command+Delete to move the files to the iPhoto Trash Bion. Then empty the iPhoto trash bin and the Trash bin in the Dock..

Why does deleting a photo from Photo Stream on my iPad also delete them from the album I just copied them to?

I'm working hard a mastering the details of icloud and iPhoto. I would like to have a well designed sets of pictures to carry around on the iPad, but after months it seems I'm still surprised when I open my photo app. Pictures I don't care about are there; pictures I tried to have available to show are missing. Well, I'm slowly working through it. This is not my main question today but a referral to a good info source(s) would appreciated.
So why does it happen that when I copy pictures from Photo Stream to an existing album, then go and delete them from photo stream, they pictures are deleted from the album where I thought they would be safe?
Thank you!

Pictures on Photo Stream remain there for only 30 days by design. So if you setup PS on your Mac and add photos to it they will display on the iPad. However, to remain on the iPad you will have to move them to the Camera Roll (I only have an iPhone and that's what it's called on it) in order to keep them permanently. This screenshot shows the save options on the iPhone when photos in the Photo Stream are seledted. Notice the option in the lower right hand corner:
It probably is similar on the iPad.
Or, you can put the photos in an album in iPhoto and connect the iPad to your Mac. Open iTunes and go to the iPad's Pictures section. There you can select the album in iPhoto and sync those photos to the iPad where they will be in the Camera Roll section.l

To transfer your photos:
Transfer and erase the Camera Roll:
Connect the iPad to your computer and launch Image Capture, iPhoto, or Aperture.
Select your iPad in the Devices list and click "Import all".
When the import finishes, you can erase the contents of the Camera Roll, if you want. That would be the quickest way, but deleting it on the iPad in the Photos.app would be safer, but more work.
Delete photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
Delete the Photo Stream contents:
How do I delete photos from My Photo Stream?

On your PC, select the photos you want to remove from your photo stream, right-click, and then select delete.

How to delete a photo from "Photo Library"?

How to delete a photo from "Photo Library"?

"Photo Library" is a place where you can access all photos synced to your iphone. They are not duplicate photos. It is simply another place form which to access the smae photos that are in your folders/albums
Just as a book is in the public library and in the fiction section, your pics are in the Photo Library and in your folder. There is only one pic, simply two places from which to access the same pic.
If you want to delete pics synced to you iphone, then deselect them in itunes and sync.

Is there a way to delete photos from Photo Stream on my macbook pro? (Not from my folders,etc.) I need to empty the photo stream. Something in my photo stream has corrupted my phone and my apple specialist suggested I do this.

Is there a way to delete the photos in Photo Stream on my mackbook pro notebook?
My phone became corrupted today and, after continuing to have problems with 2 new phones, the apple specialists determined that the only possible explanation was the presence of a corrupted photo or video in photo stream; and that the only way to use my phone without it shutting down was to deactivate the photo stream on it. It worked, but I would like to be able to have the option of using photostream again. The apple folks suggested that I delete all photos from photo stream on my computer; and then, when it is "empty", reactivate it on my phone? Is anyone familiar with this problem?
