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.

    There is NO other way to get photos off your phone, that were synced to your phone, other than through the iTunes sync process. Just make sure there are no checks, in any boxes, for any photos, that you do not want on your phone.

    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.

  • 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.

  • In Iphoto, How can I delete photos on my iphone that have already been imported?

    I've just spent over the hour on the phone with my sister (who has a law degree, I have an engineering degree), and we could not figure out how to delete photos from our iphones that have already been imported into Iphoto.  I thought Apple was the company that made things easier???  This is a nightmare.
    The way it should work:
    - Launch iPhoto
    - Stand on iPhone (Under Devices)
    - Select photo to delete (under Already Imported)
    - Right-Click Delete (or Send to Trash, or Something)
    Obviously we are not thinking like Apple thinks...does anyone know how to do this, or are these programs as crap as they seem and you have to go back to your iphone and select each photo one at a time (all several thousands of them).
    Don't even get me started on how messed up my photo libraries have become now that I have (fully) switch over to Apple.
    By the way, I like my Mac for everything else...but its photo capabilities suck.

    Thanks, I was hoping for something a little more selective that I could do from my computer, but I think this is helpful.
    Maybe the best approach to get this under control is:
    - Import all photos into iphoto
    - Delete all photos per your suggestion
    - Selectivly sync the photos you want put back on your phone
    Thanks again, I didn't know this and is a helpful trick!
    P.S. I still wouldn't mind finding a way to selectively delete files that are on my iphone from my computer.  (In Windows, you can go to My Computer -> Iphone, open the folder and delete what you want).

  • 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.

    If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox. 
    There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.
