HOW do i remove photos from iPhone to make more space

how do i remove photos and movies from Iphone to make more space

You can delete photos that you have taken with the phone by highlighting them and tapping delete.
If these are photos synced from a photo library (like iPhoto Library), those photos cannot be deleted from your photos app. Those must be removed by the photo library or "un"synced from your phone. I don't know why this decision was made by Apple, but that is something you have to do from the computer.

  • How do I remove photos from iPhone 5 without their also being deleted from other devices?

    I have albums on my iPhone and would like to delete them but, if I do so, they will also delete from my iPad, due to syncing through iCloud.  It seems, even if I turn iCloud off, temporarily, they will delete from the iPad next time iCloud is turned on.
    I suspect that, even if I shift the albums to a flash drive, the same thing will happen.
    Thank you

    I don't understand the difference between Photo Stream and Camera Roll.
    Camera Roll is the "local" storage on your device, where photos and videos that you take get saved.  This can take up a lot of space, and since Camera Roll is part of your backup that makes your backup very large too.
    My Photo Stream is the iCloud storage for photos.  This also takes up space, but not as much because they're not full resolution.  Depending on your device settings, when you take a picture it is saved in Camera Roll and then automatically uploaded to your My Photo Stream (for the purpose with sharing with other devices on your iCloud account).  My Photo Stream is meant to be temporary as it only holds the last 30 days' photos and only up to 1000 ... as these limits are reached, the oldest photos get deleted from iCloud.  Note that videos that you take do not get uploaded to My Photo Stream.
    Think of Camera Roll as you would think of a digital camera, and My Photo Stream as a temporary cloud-based storage area for sharing.
    So as roaminggnome says above, make a habit of transferring photos and videos from Camera Roll to your computer and then delete them from the device.  If you want to keep them on the device, still transfer and delete them but then make a designated folder on your computer for the things you want on your device and sync them back to your iPhone by telling iTunes to sync to this folder on your computer.

  • How do I remove photos from iPhone 4?

    I have synced all of my photos to my macbook pro, and I need more space on my phone. The trouble is, I can't seem to get the pictures off my phone! How is this done?

    Hi Chad,
    You are not talking about PhotoSteam photos, are you? Because those do not take up any memory on your camera. They are housed by iCloud, and it keeps up to 1000 photos or 3 months-worth, wichever comes first. You can individually delete PhotoStream photos, by selcting them on your phone, and then putting them into the trash.
    As far as other photos on your phone, if you want them all off, then, as roaminggnome indicates, you need to hook up to your computer, go to the Photos tab on your Phone profile, and uncheck "Sync Photos" if you want to get rid of all of them.
    Cheers,

  • How can I remove photos from iPhone...when I synced to another computer, it loaded up a ton a pictures from the laptop that I did not want on my phone

    Help!  I have 4 different computers that I plug my iPhone 4 into from time to time.  I just synced it with a laptop that I haven't plugged into for a long while, and it overloaded my phone with a ton of pictures from the computer that I did not want or need on my phone.  When I went to PHOTOS on my iTunes, and checked "sync checked folders only", it says it will replace the photos on my phone.  I'm not sure this is what I want...I don't want to lose the photos on my phone.  I have over 3000 on there!

    You can sync photos and itunes content with one and only one computer at a time.  When you sync to another, it will erase the current content and  replace with content from the new computer.

  • HT4236 How do you remove photos from iPhone 5 "Photo Library"

    I have moved all my photos to my computer but can get them off my phone...

    You can manually delete them by going into the library on the phone, selecting "edit" and tapping on each photo you want to delete, then selecting "delete" on the bottom right.
    iPhoto allows you to delete all pictures on the iphone after import.
    Hope this helps!

  • How can i move photos from iphone to icloud without a computer?

    Did you purchase the music from the iTunes store?  If so, you can download it again for free as discussed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519.  If the music was from other sources (ripped CDs, etc.) you have to sync your phone with iTunes on a computer to transfer it to your phone.

  • HT1296 how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    how do i sync photos from iphone to pc

    I have the same issue. I've already read the iPhone user guide which didn't help.
    The user guide explains how to turn on Photo Sync in iTunes but no specifics of where the imported photos will be. I tried syncing a few times and I cannot find the photos on my PC.iTunes transferred all my PC photos *to* the phone, but not the other way around.
    I'd imagine they should be in the folder that is specified in iTunes.
    Any help would be appreciated!

  • How do I sync photos from Iphone to Ipad?

    How can I sync photos from Iphone 4S to Ipad 4th generation?

    The only way is to sync to iTunes on a computer and then sync from iTunes to the other device, using USB.
    If you're thinking of using photo stream, that won't work now, since only photos taken AFTER each device was logged into photo stream will sync between them.  All older photos must be synced via a computer.
    The exception to this is if you use dropbox or some other service to act as the middleman.
