How do you delete a photo library album in OS 6.1.3

I was syncing my 4s iphone using OS 6.1.3. I didn't have the prefs correct and it added an album of very old photos and takes up much space.
How can I delete it? It will allow me to edit the photo but there is no option to delete the photos or the entire album.
Tnx,
Marie

Vernon,
how did you create your album or import your photos to iPhoto?
Not all photos and albums can be deleted iPhoto. If you synced the photos from your Mac, they can only be dleted by removing them from the synced albums on your Mac and syncing again. Only photos taken with your device can be deleted directly from your device using the Photos.app. Photos in the edited album, or tagged albums will be removed from these albums by removing the tags.
Delete photos
Depending on how your photos and video clips were added to iPhoto, do one of the following:
Photos and video clips taken with your device: Open the Photos app on your device, tap Camera Roll, tap to select the photos, and tap .
Photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply, and click Sync.
Photos in the Beamed, Photo Box, iTunes, or [App] album: Tap a photo, tap (tap Edit if you don’t see the tool), tap Delete Photo, and tap Delete.

How do you delete iphone photo library?

I'm looking to free up some space on my iPhone4, and would like to know how to go back and delete ALL the photos under PHOTO LIBRARY, as they are all now uploaded into my MacBook.
To that end, I would also like to know how to go back and delete all the photos under CAMERA ROLL...
... what I'm looking at is to simply keep a few ALBUMS that I have synced back onto the iPhone from iPhoto.
thanks in advance

You delete photo library pics the same way you put them there. The sync process. Deselect them in itunes and sync.
Camera roll photos can be deleted one at a time from the iphone or all at once when you import them.
Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer

HT204022 how to I delete the photo library on my iphone?

how do i delete the photos on my phone in the phone library? it has dupilicated itself now I have over 1000 pic and no storage

Welcome to the Apple community.
Before you start deleting photos from your phone, you need to discover why they had been duplicated. Have they been duplicated because you now have a camera roll and a photo stream album with the same photos in both.

How do i delete my photo library from my iphone 4?

My computer downloaded my entire photo library to my iPhone 4s & I'm almost out of storage space. As far as I can tell, there is no way to delete the photo library from the phone itself; I have tried.
I have gone into iTunes library to delete it from there, but I don't have a "photo" option. I clicked on all of the other choices on the tab in the upper left-hand corner: Music, Movies, TV Shows, Books, Apps, & Tones. None of these options have anything related to photos or photo libraries.
I have cleared my "My Pictures" folder on my PC and re-synched the phone; that didn't work either. I've gone through everything under the "Settings" tab on the phone itself, but to no avail.
I'm almost to the point where I just want to take my phone to the wireless provider and have them wipe everything out and reset the phone back to its original settings, but I'm thinking there's GOT to be an easier way to solve this problem. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance...

Yes there is and if you are unable to via the iTunes sync process, there is a problem.
I have gone into iTunes library to delete it from there, but I don't have a "photo" option.
Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process are not stored in your iTunes library. iTunes serves as the transfer conduit only between the location on your computer's hard drive where the selected photos are stored and your iPhone.
This is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. If all photos that were transferred from your computer to your iPhone are not removed from the iPhone after deselecting Sync Photos under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync, try creating a new folder on your computer's hard drive that will remain empty. Select this empty folder under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes instead of your My Pictures folder followed by a sync.
I'm almost to the point where I just want to take my phone to the wireless provider and have them wipe everything out and reset the phone back to its original settings,
You don't need to take the iPhone anywhere to do this ends up being needed. You can erase all data and settings direct on the iPhone at Settings > General > Reset which will erase everything but the iOS version installed and the included apps, or you can restore the iPhone with iTunes on your computer as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

How do you delete a photo album off your phone that doesn't have the delete option available? and the photos section on iTunes has no photos synced?

so I have an iPhone 4s and a while back I put a photo album on my phone, but now I cannot delete it!! The delete option isn't there to do it on my device and I have tried unchecking the synced photos button on iTunes and that doesn't work, I just want them off my phone.

If unchecking and syncing in iTunes doesn’t work, you may have to use a third party tool like iPhone PC suite. With it, you can delete the photos and videos in Camera Roll, pictures in apps, pictures transferred from computer to iPhone and more. Use “Crtl + A” (for Windows) or “Command + A” (for Mac) to select all the pictures in an album and delete them, the album will disappear automatically.

How do you delete a photo album on new iPad?

Need help to delete a photo album. Also, is there a way to easily select more than one but less than all photos in an album?

Why is a post pc device dependent on a pc to erase images?
In the case of photos it is not a question of the type of device, but of the application you are using. Both iPhoto and Photos app are applications that allow albums to be uploaded and mirrored from your Mac. If you do not want the mirroring, don't use this feature - use the Photos Stream to upload. Then you can delete.

How to un-sync the "Photo Library" album?

Ok my iphone 4 16g is totally full & there is almost 6g of photos. The problem seems to be with a folder titled "Photo Library" which has a double of every single photo already on the phone.
How can I un-sync this folder so I can free up a ton of space?

The photos in Photo Library are not duplicates of the photos in the albums (folders) synced from your phone to your computer. The actual photos are in Photo Library; the albums only contain links to the photos in Photo Library. The same is true for Camera Roll. It doesn't contain duplicates of any albums you create on your phone either. The actual photos are in Camera Roll and the albums only contain links to these photos.
If you want to import the photos from Camera Roll to your computer and then delete them from your phone, see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. Syncing your phone doesn't touch the Camera Roll, except to include any photos there in the iPhone backup that is created/updated when you sync.

How do I delete a photo library from my iPhone

I have 2 phot libraries that are exactly the same. I want to delete one of them. I resynced but there still 2. Photo Library and iPod Photo Cache. I am only syncing iPod Photo Cache. I resynced my iPad and the extra (duplicate) went away. Not true with my iPhone. Any ideas?

LOL.. I think the question just morphed again.

You can't sync your albums from an iPhone to iTunes/computer - the sync is always the other way.
If you need to move album photos from an iPhone to a computer then you need to look at some apps to do that.
An example might be Phototransfer - there will be others through a Google search

How do you delet your photos on iPod?

I need to free up some space on my iPod so I want to delete the photos. I can't seem to figure out how to do that through the itunes interface. I hat to go into the file and delete something maybe I shouldn't have. No help from "help" files or from the manual. Everybody tells you how to put them on but they don't tell you how to remove. It's seems like a pretty basic thing to include in a manuale. Help please... THANKS!

Connect the iPod, in the summary screen click on the "photos" tab.
Remove the check mark from "sync photos". When you see the message asking you to confirm, click "yes", then click "apply" (bottom right corner).
However this will remove all the photos on the iPod.
If you just want to delete selected ones, you can remove the photos from the folder with which they are synced.
This is an option.
Create a new folder and give it a recognizable name (e.g. iPod photos).
Drag (or copy) your photos into this new folder.
Connect your iPod and open iTunes and when the summary page appears, click on the "photos" tab.
Under "Synchronize photos from" choose "Selected albums" and select the new folder you created and click on "OK".
Then you can just add and remove photos to and from that new folder as you wish.
