How do I delete photos from my Iphone that were originally on my computer

How do you delete photos that were imported from my computer  from an Iphone?

You'll have to remove the photos from the album on your computer and then sync the iPhone again, or choose the option to not sync that album in iTunes.
To delete photos from your device
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.

  • How do i delete photos from my phone that were downloaded off a computer i no longer have

    I have 2 photo albums that won't delete when I go to edit my folders. I understand this is because I have taken them from a computer and put them on my phone. I also understand that if I plug my phone into the computer and go to iTunes I can select which photo albums I want on my phone and which ones I don't.
    The problem I have is that the 2 albums I have on my phone are from an old computer I don't have anymore. And they are not on my new one that I'm using now. So when I go to selected photo albums in ITunes, those albums are not there for me to delete.

    Try going to iTunes and remove the checkmark in front of "Sync Photos From" and then do a sync to see if it will remove all of the previously synced photos from the phone. If that doesn't work, try changing the selection of photos to be synced so that only one new photo is sent to the phone. If that successfully deletes the photos on the phone you can then select any photos you want added back to the phone and sync again. Note that each time you sync, iTunes sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current iTunes settings.

    The only way you can do that is to import them into your library first, but you may have done that already.
    The easiest way to tell is to select a photo from the photostream album in iPhoto and ctrl-click on it, if it gives you the option to import it isn't in your iPhoto library, if it offers you the option to show in library it has already been imorted.

  • How do I delete photos from my iPhone that have been downloaded from my pc?

    I am not sure how to delete photos from my iPhone that I have downloaded from my pc or that I have taken with my iPhone (on my camera roll)

    "I am not sure how to delete photos from my iPhone that I have downloaded from my pc"
    The same way you put them there.  The sync process.  open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want on the iphone , sync
    "or that I have taken with my iPhone (on my camera roll)"
    You can delete them when you import the photos to your computer - using whatever softare that you import them with or you can go to the pics and hit the trash can on the bottom of the screen.

  • How do i delete photos on my iphone that were previously deleted from itunes? cannot remove photos from iphone album.  trash can is greyed out.

    how do i delete photos on my iphone that have already been deleted from my windows laptop? The photos cannot be selected and removed from the iphone album.  trash can is greyed out.

    You should be able to delete the photos by syncing with iTunes. Either remove the checkmark beside "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes or change the selection of photos to be synced. Each time you sync it is supposed to set the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/selection in iTunes.

  • How do I delete photos on my iPhone that were transferred from iPhoto to my phone?

    I recently transfered most of my photos from my iphone to iphoto on my macbook. A couple of days later I transfered some of them back onto my iphone, but now when i look at them on my iphone there is no way to delete them there. Ive tried everything but nothing works. I simply cannot delete photos on my iphone that were transfered there from iphoto.
    I thought apple was supposed to make things easier, but apparently not.

    Correct. You need to Un-sync them using your Computer.
    Basically do the opposite of what you did to get them on your Device.

  • I am sorry but I don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone that were sys from a computer.

    I just don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone placed there by Syc.

    Well, if they were synced fomr a computer then the iPhone says the computer "owns" them for instructional purposes.  You have two options.
    1) Plug your iPhone up to any computer with iTunes.  You can get itunes at www.itunes.com  Then tell it to sync photos, but then select no photos or an empty folder.  This will override what the previous computer put on your iPhone.
    2) Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings and say goodbye to everything including those synced photos.  If you make a quick backup first in iCloud (be sure it finishes) then you can restore form your iCloud backup via Wifi and those synced photos wont be there.  How to backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

  • HT1535 how do i delete photos from ipad mini that were automatically synced from my laptop

    How do I delete photos from an ipad mini that were automatically synced from my laptop.Apple told me to reset my daughters ipad mini to factory settings because of a fault but when it was reconnected all the photos on laptop were transferred and we cannot get rid of them Pse help

    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. 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 - so you will need to re-connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 and you don't have the sidebar showing then you can enable it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the right-hand side use the Photos tab to de-select the folders that you don't want and then sync (if you want to remove all synced photos then try selecting and syncing an empty folder).

  • How do i delete photos from my iPad that were imported from a camera

    On a recent vacation, I backed up some 1,100 photos onto my iPad each day.  Now that I'm home, I've imported the photos into Aperture (or iPhoto) from the camera and no longer need the photos on the iPad.
    I can't find a way to delete them except:
    one-by-one.  VERY time consuming
    importing them into a photo app again, selecting remove photos, then deleting the new redundant photos from the phot app
    There must be a better way...

  • How do I delete photos from my iPad that were synced with my old mac?

    I understand that I have to delete synced photos by unchecking them in iTunes on the Mac I synced the iPad with, but what do I do when I have a new mac that doesn't have the same photos as the iPad? How do I delete them then?

  • How do I delete photos from the gallery that were downloaded from FB or google?

    New user.  I am trying to delete photos from my gallery in the Samsung S4.  If I had taken the photos with the camera phone, the trashcan shows up and I can delete.  But if I select the downloaded photos- no trashcan icon shows up.  I have tried stopping sync, deleting downloads etc.  It's driving me nuts!

    Checking a friends S4 I see that using the Gallery app that long-pressing checks the photo and brings up a Trash Can.  I see that tapping a phot opens it full screen and tapping once again brings up options to  send, share, or delete.  Pictures in other folders to include Bluetooth share, messaging, and screenshots produces the same results.

  • HT6154 How do I delete photos on my iPhone that were not taken on my phone, but somehow got synced with my computer?

    I have many photos on my phone that I want to delete. They were taken with a camera and imported to my MacBookPro. When I synced my iphone, the photos got added to my phone. I cannot delete them. How do I get rid of them?

    You delete them by syncing again using iTunes. If you want to delete all previously synced photos, remove the checkmark in front of "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes (after you have connected the phone and before you sync). If you just want to remove some of the photos, change the selection of photos to be synced in that same page on iTunes. Each time you sync via iTunes, the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone are set to match the current iTunes settings.

  • HT201302 how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    Hello paolo@spring,
    Just as photos that were taken more than 30 days ago remain on your MacBook Air, so will photos that are deleted from your iPhone.
    Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
    In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.
