How do i delete my Icloud photos?

I have deleted them from my computers Icloud photos but they are still on my Iphone, i have also turned everything off on my desktop and my phone settings, but there is no option to delete the photo when i click on it from my Iphone.

What "iCloud" photos are you referring to, specifically? Photos in your Camera Roll can be backed up to iCloud, but you have no direct access to those photos so unless you delete your entire iCloud backup, you cannot delete them. Photo Stream resides in iCloud, but not anywhere you would have access to unless you mean you deleted the Photo Stream photos from your computer. That would not remove them from iCloud or your device.
Photo Stream photos remain in the Cloud for 30 days or for 1000 photos. You can delete them from individual devices, but whatever is in the Cloud will still be there. If you turn Photo Stream off on a device, it will delete the Photo Stream photos from the device. But if you turn it back on, it will re-download whatever is currently in the Cloud for Photo Stream.
So, not sure what it is you are wanting to do? What photos are you trying to delete from your device? You can only manually delete Camera Roll and Photo Stream photos from your device. Photos in other Albums cannot be deleted on the device directly.
Cheers,

  • How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read below that you can't. Really? Is that correct?

    How do I delete music and photos from my iCloud account? I've read that you can't. Really? Is that true?

    You can delete photo stream photos from iCloud by just deleting them on your iPod.  My photo stream photos are automatically deleted from iCloud after 30 days anyway.  Just so you are aware, deleting photo stream photos doesn't free up any space in your account as they don't use your personal iCloud account storage.
    You can't delete music from iCloud because the music isn't stored in your account; it's stored in the iTunes store.  What you are seeing are links to your previously purchased music in the iTuens store, allowing you to redownload them if you want to.  You can't remove anything from your list of previous purchases.  If you don't want to see these "iTunes in the Cloud" purchases in your song list, go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and turn off Music under Show All.  LIke photo stream photos, this music doesn't use any of your personal iCloud account storage.

  • How can I delete an iCloud account on my iPhone without the password?

    How can I delete an iCloud account on my phone without being able to enter the password?
    The account on my phone is linked to an old email adress that no longer exists and won't accept any of my passwords (although, this account did accept a pasword several days ago to restore my old phone to it's original settings but it won't accept that password anymore...)
    I can't change the password because the first security questions asks for my birthday which it won't accept.
    HELP!

    If your device is signed into your old iCloud ID and you are trying to change it to your current ID, and if the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go tohttps://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, 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 iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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.

    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How do I delete my iCloud home email address account?

    How do I delete my iCloud home email address account?

    If you want to migrate your data to a new iCloud account, start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow), then tapping Save to Camera Roll.  If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep, you'll need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself so you can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.  Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), provide the password to turn off Find My iDevice and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create your new account and choose Merge to upload your data.

  • HT4906 how do you delete pictures in photo stream?

    how do you delete pictures in photo stream

    if you have iphoto 9.2.3 or later, and photostream is on the left hand side, just drag the images into the trash.
    the only other option is to nuke all of them at once by signing into icloud.com clicking on your name in the top right, then going to advanced. and pressing the Reset Photostream button.
    or alternatively, a quick google search will show you http://howto.cnet.com/8301-11310_39-20121486-285/how-to-delete-photos-from-photo -stream/   which says exactly what i just said

    I changed my iPhone from an IPhone 4 to an iPhone 5. How do I delete my iCloud account on my old phone without losing all the data on my new iPhone 5?

    If you have any photo stream photos on your old phone that you want to keep you might want to save them to the camera roll, then import them to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) before deleting the account.  The reason for this is that photo stream photos are only kept in iCloud for 30 days.  When you enable photo stream on your new phone you will only receive photo stream photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud.

  • How do I delete all the photos from my camera roll?

    I have all the photos/videos saved to Dropbox, now how do I delete all the photos from my iPhone & iPad Camera Roll/Photo Stream? I want to delete all the photos/videos at one time, is this possible?

    Connect to you're laptop. If you are using Windows:
    Click "File Explorer"
    Click "Computer"
    Click the iPhone
    Find "Camera Rolll"
    Select all of the photos and delete them.
    For Mac:
    No idea how macs work but it should be something like the instructions for Windows :-/
    As far as Photo Stream, they will automatically be deleted after 30 days and they do not take up iCloud space so you have nothing to worry about.

  • HT204053 How do I delete all Icloud stuff

    How do I delete all Icloud stuff

    You'd have to go into the various apps on a device that is also stored on iCloud and begin trimming files.
    Backups:
    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud.  Turn off camera roll and any other apps that might have a lot of data.  Then delete the backup.  That will free up space.  Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream. Go to Settings>iCloud and turn that feature on. 
    Emails:
    Regarding emails, on the computer, move emails from mailboxes in icloud to those on the device.  That can also save a lot of space.

    How do I delete an iCloud account from my iPad that I no longer know the password for and have no access to the email account to change it?

    You will need the password. If you can't get it reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (if you remember the answers to the account's security questions then you should be able to reset it via them) then try contacting Support in your country, they should be able to reset it.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT569
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
