How do I Delete Photo Library and Albums on iphone 5

Someone please help me!!! I've been all over trying to get help. My photos are safely on my PC. I was able to delete all the photos on the Camera Roll only. I need to delete all albums including PHOTO LIBRARY which has over 3000 photos. I don't want any photos on my phone.
Does Apple prevent this so you will have to buy more storage? You should be able to delete an album.

Connect the phone to your computer, click on the iPhone name in iTunes, click on the Photos tab. Check Seleted folders. Uncheck the albums you don't want on the phone, then click Sync.

You can't delete the Photo Library. The iPhone stores photos the same way iPhoto does on a Mac. All photos are synced to your Photo Library. The various albums/folders merely contain pointers to the actual photos which are in your Photo Library, they are not duplicates.

I try to open I photo and I get the message, your iPhoto library is damaged...please restore from backup. But i din't made backup copy. How can i delete previous library and work wrom the new one?

Try this (assuming you're using iPhoto 12): make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and try the three fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
delete iPhoto's cache files that are located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding the the Option key. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library.
Select options #1, #2 and #6.
Fix #3
Rebuild the library using iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

How do you delete photos from the albums on 4S?

How do you delete photo's and why is there the camera roll and Iphone roll? most ae duplicates?

Photos synced to iphone have never had a trash can. You delete them the same way you put them there - the sync process.
If you do not want something on the iphone, then go to the phtos tab, deselect it and sync.
Photo Album is not a duplicate. It is simply another place from which to access the same pics as you have in your synced albums. This is how iphone handles photos - always has.
All photos synced to iphone can be accessed from Photo Library. Those very same photos can alos be accessed from your individual photo albums.

IPhone Photo Library and Album photos to iPhoto

Hello:
I am trying to import the photos on my iPhone to iPhoto. The photos from my Camera Roll will import, but the 2,000 or so photos I have in Photo Library and in my other Albums will not import. How can I transport my Photo Library and other albums on my iPhone to my Camera Roll? Or, how can I get all of them to upload to iPhoto? My end goal is to get them into iPhoto, but if I can get them in the Camera Roll, then that will work.

At least you have that, although as Allan stated, you can never recover the original full-resolution pics from the iPhone (they were optimized to ~0.6 megapixel images, although that may be higher now with iPhone 4's higher-res display).
Still, an external HDD is what you need. Personally, I have two of them, backed up to each at least weekly, and the two drives are stored in different locations (home and offsite). Every 2 months, I also backup pictures and movies to DVD -DL media and store that in a safe deposit box. Even then, a natural disaster affecting my whole area could theoretically wipe destroy it all - so, likely I'll add Mozy soon...
Overkill? Maybe. But my daughter is only going to grow up once, so I'm not going to risk losing the digital memories of these times...

How do I delete photo library on my phone

My memory is getting sucked up because of my photo library. And finally discovered where pictures went that I just took but not going into my camera roll. I saw a suggestion via Google and deleted my photo library AND everything else but the camera roll. I did back up everything before I did, too. But then I was blocked from adding any of my picture files until I allowed the photo library back onto my phone. And then it's back to sucking up my memory. I just got my 32GB iPhone 5 and cannot afford to get the 64GB one. But that would be wasted if all my pictures go into this sunflower box! And you cannot delete any picture, never mind the file. Please help! I don't have a lot of apps, but I've had to delete them to take a picture or shoot a short video. It's that bad!

I went to second link. On my laptop, from sync photos from, my only choice is pictures. I do not have either of the folders the second link mentions. On my list on my laptop (Windows Vista), I was hoping Photo Stream was the same as the Photo Library as it has the same sunflower button. All this did was ADD photo stream onto my phone. But I was able to delete it. So I say again, I really want this tab/app off my phone and I cannot seem to be able to get it off of it.

How do i put 'photo library' and photo folders onto my pc?

A while ago I had over 6000 photos in camera, mostly screen shots. So i imported them and sorted them out into photos taken by the camera and screen shots, put them into different folders then put them onto my phone. So i have Camera Roll & Photo Stream, Photo Library (all my foldered photos combined) Folder 1 and Folder 2. Folder 1,2 and photo library cannot be deleted.
I want to delete some pictures and videos from the folders but i can't. My computer got wiped and all those photos are gone. How do i put those pictures back onto my computer? Importing only works for camera roll and when i go into tab photos and press sync, i think it deletes them because the GB decreases dramatically. How do i put them onto my computer and delete the ones i want?

Apple does. heh software is called Time Machine. But you have to turn it on. To give reasonable protection, you need a separate disk to store the Time Machine data, otherwise, a disk failure takes out the back up data as well.
Personally, I am a bit paranoid about back up and use a three tier strategy. I use a Mac Pro with four internal drives. One is dedicated to be a Time Machine target. That backs up changed files automatically, but it is still in the same machine. I also have a Drobo FS for network storage. I back up user data to that weekly. And then I use USB drives for monthly off-site storage.

How to get photos from Photo Library, an album on iPhone, into iPhoto on desktop mac

Hi, this would seem simple, but somehow it's not.
I have ~1500 photos on my iPhone in a separate album. They were synced previously with an iTunes library, that I have now lost for good. The images are still on my iPhone and I want to transfer them to the iPhoto library.
My question is...
how do I transfer the images from 'Photo Library' on my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.0.1) to my desktop?
When iPhone is connected to desktop and iPhoto is open, under Devices, it does not list the 'Photo Library' that I want to import, but it does list photos on the iPhone that I have taken prior to losing the iTunes library.
I tried iPhoto Library Manager, but it does not allow me to connect to the iPhone

Have you saved those iTunes library photos on your iPhone to the Camera Roll?

How do I delete photos in an album downloaded off my computer?

So i recently downloaded photos off my computer to my iOS 7.1.1 running 5s, and I don't want some photos on it. But, when I try to delete them, there is no trashcan symbol , and If i wanted to, there's not even an album delete/clear button when i hit "edit" on my albums page. I don't know if i typed this in a confusing way, but these photos are bugging me and I want to delete them! How?

The only way to delete synced photos on the phone is to deselect the photos (or entire album) in iTunes and re-sync. It can't be done on the phone.

How do I delete photos from an album?

I am trying to delete photos from albums I made this morning but no matter where I look all I get is a method that does not work as it tells me firstly to select album then select photo - this I cannot do. What am I doing wrong?

Do you have a mouse or trackpad? Are you able to click on an item in the Finder and select it? If so try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file,, Cache.dbt, that is located in your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

How do I delete photo library from my iPad?

how do i delete the photo library from my ipad?

Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen or via the Edit button in thumbnail view. If you want to select and delete a lot of photos then in thumbnail view tap the Edit button and then try touching the first photo with two fingers and then slide the two fingers (not too quickly) across the photos that you want to remove and they should get ticked (it might take a few attempts)
Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing - if you want to delete all synced photos then try selecting and syncing an empty folder.
