How do I delete a lot of old photos from my iPad at the same time?

I have a 64Gb iPad and I have filled it with photos from past holidays.  I want to delete them so that I can store photos from this holiday.  I import photos from my digital camera to inspect, edit & share while I am away, but load them in a separate library at home.  So I can safely delete them now.  It would be nice to be able to select by date range, say.  The only way I have found so far is to select one by one.  A couple of thousand selections will take a long time...

I searched myself for a long time and could not yet find a "select multiple and delete" function to delete from the camera roll.
The quick and dirty way way would be to connect your iPad by USB to your computer. It will be seen as a camera by Image Capture or iPhoto or Aperture, if you have it. Then select the photos you want to delete from the iPad and import them to your Computer (you can delete them immediately afterwards again) and enable the flag "Delete from camera after importing".
This will erase all imported photos from the camera roll at once, Only I hesitate to recommend that, because it is usually safer to let the camera erase the card, for each device knows its filesystem best.

  • How do I remove the application from your iPad at the same time and with the clouds?

    Hello,
    how can I remove the application from your iPad at the same time and with the clouds?
    I know you press the app icon until it starts shaking, then press the black cross in the upper left corner. This will remove it.
    But still I will come in to the store as a bookmark Purchated I see it with the symbol of a cloud. And I would like to remove it for good. Under iOS 5.1.1 somehow I managed to do that (at least hide it). In iOS 6 I can not do that.
    I greet

    The only transition you can add this way is default cross dissolve. If the images are in the timeline, move the playhead to the beginning of the images, select them all, and drag from the timeline to the canvas to overwrite with transition.

  • How can I see or transfer my old photos from my iOS 6 iPod Touch to the 'Years, Collections, Moments' in my iOS 8 iPhone 5S?

    How can I see or transfer my old photos from my iOS 6 iPod Touch to the 'Years, Collections, Moments' in my iOS 8 iPhone 5S?
    For example, my mom's 'Years, Collections, Moments' in her iPhone 6 has pictures from her old iPhones, even her 3GS

    Greetings Yushk,
    It seems you would like to transfer photos from your previous device to your iPhone 5S. I have linked to an article which may help you. You can transfer those photos to a Mac or PC, then sync them to your new device:
    Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
    After you import your photos from your iOS device or Saved Photos, you can use iTunes to sync them back to your device.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    Each song on my iTunes has a duplicate. How do I delete all duplicates and prevent this from happening again in the future?

    After I had updated to Itunes 11 (also on Windows 7), I had the same experience, but I suspect that it was because I accepted a proposal to set up an external media library in order to simplify security backups. An associated result was that I had lost all of my playlists!
    What I did was to restore the entire library off my Ipod, using a very good program called PodToPC (a free download is available) selecting an option to replace all of the stuff in the Itunes library. I use the Ipod Classic simply because it has a large capacity to hold my collection of CD and Vinyls. No way was I going to modify duplicates of 10000 tracks in 750 playslists by hand!  I did have a few residual problems with some of the playlist specs but, after a few hours of work all was restored.
    I hope this is useful.

  • How can I easily remove a group of photos from my iPad

    how can I easily remove a group of photos from my iPad?

    Iif the photos were synced to the iPad they can only be removed by connecting to iTunes on your computer, unselecting the photos folder that you synced to the iPad and then follow that with a sync.
    IF the photos are in the camera roll, open the camera roll album, tap the as select button in the upper right corner, tap on each photo that you want to delete in order to select them and then tap the trash can icon.

  • How do I view multiple images from different projects at the same time?

    Hello
    I've been trying to find the answer in the user manual, but no luck so far.
    I did find how to open 2 projects at once, but I can only see one image at a time in the viewer and I have to keep going back and forth between projects to compare images. (These are scans of old photos and I want to eliminate the ones that are poorer quality, so need to compare numerous images from 2 sets of scans)
    How can I view an image from one project at the same time as an image from another? I know that it can be done in the same project by apple-clicking the second, third etc image, but this doesn't work if the images are from different projects.
    Thank you
    Elizabeth

    Thank you again Tony
    I've now created an album, independent of the projects, and dragged test images into it and it does just the job I needed. Now i just need to keep my brain sorted with which ones are which while i'm working

  • TS3899 hi - why can't i delete emails once from iphone and ipad at the same time?

    When I delete emails from the iphone they still appear in the ipad. Why? How can I delete from both devices at the same time?

    You can and it should be automatic depending on your refresh rate.  If your phone and iPad refresh every hour, or only on request, then the iPad will not show the change until you refresh the email account.
    Next time you delete emails, try it....Refresh the screen on the iPad.
    This only works if iPad has internet connection.

  • I have photos from several cameras of the same event, how do I combine them?

    I have photos from several cameras of the same events.  How can I sort them together, three pics of the same horse from three cameras side by side; I can't move pics from one camera source to another in a folder.

    Languare is critical since it is all we have to communicate with
    Folders in iPhoto do not hold photos - folders hold only other folders or albums
    If you are speaking of events then you simply merge the events (drag one onto another or select two or more and use the merge events command - for the photos to be "side by side" the three camera's time/date setting will have to be identical as photos will be sorted by time/date - if they are not you can correct by selecting the photos in an event (before merging) and using the adjust time and date command or you can make a smart album for the camera and select the photos and use the adjust time and date command
