How do I delete photos on my ipad which were accidentally synced from my computer?

I am new to Apple.  I Have an Ipad 2 updated to operating system 6.  When I first connected my ipad to my Microsoft computer, photos on my computer where inadvertantly synced to my ipad.  I would like to take these photos off my ipad.  I have synced the ipad to computer, clicked on photos, clicked the file I want deleted on the ipad but I cannot find anywhere where it says delete.  I do not want to delete the photos on the computer, only the ipad?  Thanks for your help.

1. Rename the folder that contain your photos on the computer
2. Create an empty folder using the original name of folder
3. Sync empty folder with iPad to delete photos
4. Delete the empty folder on computer
5. Rename the original folder

  • How do I delete photos on my iPhone which were sent to it by iCloud from my iMac?

    How do I delete photos on my iPhone which were sent to it by iCloud from my iMac? The pics were taken on a comers then installed onto my iMac originally. When I try to select the pics I want to delete, the trash icon is not highlighted. When I try to reinstall the oils onto the iMac there is no way to do it.TIA

    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 to delete photos on the ipad which was put on from a lap top. I have tried doing what some said ie: getting into slideshow - but didn't get any arrow to press.  Can someone help please?

    Can anyone help me to delete photos that were put on my ipad from a lap top computer. I have tried following instructions from another member, but there was no arrow to press by the slideshow - so I was unable to go any further. Appreciate any help, as there are lots of photos.

    I am pretty new to Ipad and computers - it's easy to delete photos taken on the Ipad camera - but what do I do on the computer to delete the laptop photos (which a family member put on) I can work my way around a computer OK.

  • How do I delete photos on my iPad that were added with the SD card adaptor?

    I added photos to my iPad using the SD Card Adaptor over a year ago.  They now appear in the 'Photos' tab on the iPad.  They are not in Photo Stream and they do not appear in Albums under Camera Roll or Last Import.  I have connected my iPad to the PC and opened the DCIM folder and they are not there at all.
    I have Googled this question repeatedly and can not find an answer. I have viewed many YouTube tutorials that I thought would give me the right answer and... nope.
    Can anyone please help?

    Thanks Clyde.  But the photos do not show up in iTunes either!
    Well, let's just say, that I can't see them there! All I see in iTunes under Photos is the option to Sync photos.

  • Deleting photos off iPhone 5c that were automatically synced from an iPhone 4s?

    I have an iPhone 4s and all of my photos are automatically synced to my dad's girlfriends iPhone 5c, and they can't be deleted off her phone. So I need some help getting them off her phone and keeping them from being sent. Please and Thank you to anyone who can help!

    If the photos came to the new iPhone after being synced in iTunes to a computer, then you will need to uncheck photos in iTunes for that new iPhone and sync/Apply the changes.
    If these photos are listed in the My Photo Stream on the new device, its becasue both phones are using the same Apple ID in Settings > iCloud.
    If you want to use the same account, everything will continue to sync from Settings > iCloud that is turned on, turn off Photos in there to stop uploading photos to My Photo Stream, or Delete Account and either don't use iCloud or set it up with your own account/email address.

    How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
    How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
    http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • How do i delete photos on my ipad without my ipad being with me

    how do i delete photos on my ipad without my ipad being with me?

    Your computer's iTunes can only be used to remove photos that were synced from a computer (or to sync different folders), it won't show camera kit photos or photos taken with the iPad.
    You should be able to delete them either via Image Capture, Aperture or iPhoto on your Mac (they should let you import and delete them ; in Image Capture you should be able to select and delete them via the 'no entry' bottom left without importing them).
    In the Photos app in thumbnail view you should be able to select the photos that you want to delete via the Select button top right of the screen and then tap the trashcan icon top left ; if viewing a photo fullscreen then tap the trashcan icon bottom right to delete it.

  • 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.
