How do you delete photos from the Camera roll without losing duplicates in Albums?

Please help thanks!

Correct, they are only links, not separate copies. At the moment you can't directly on an iPad, albums that you create directly on it only contain links, not actual photos. You could copy the photos to your computer, organise them on there, and then sync those albums back - or you could use a third-party photo app such as the Photo Manager Pro app that I linked to in your other thread

How can I copy photos from the camera roll to an already existing album in ipad?

If you are in thumbnail view in the Camera Roll, tap the Edit button in the upper right corner. Tap the photos that you want to add to the existing album. Tap - Add To - in the upper right corner and then tap - Existing Album.
You can only add camera roll photos to albums that you have created on the iPad. You cannot add them to albums that you synced from iTunes.

Hey linsfrombrandon,
The closest you will get to have your photos live in iCloud and not taking as much storage space on your iPhone is by using iCloud Photo Library. What it does is makes your Photos live in iCloud but also appear on your iPhone and other iOS devices and computers. It will be the exact same so any changes will be reflected everywhere. When they are on your iPhone, there is an option to use a compressed version. Take a look at the FAQs page and let me know if you have any other questions before making this decision to turn this on. I would also make sure that you have a safe copy of your photos before moving forward.

How do you delete photos from the ipad?

how do you delete photos from ipad!

Deleting Photos from iPad: Faced withthis problem, I looked for and found that a few other people werealso worried about it. I use Windows XP Professional and have an iPad2 (16GB).
Deleting photos from the iPad turnedout to be quite easy after I connected the iPad to the PC with theUSB Cable. Using My Computer (in Windows Explorer) on the PC, I founda graphic showing a camera and a PC after clicking on the iPad 2. Allthe photos and videos in the iPad (not resident in any special apps)were displayed. Just to be safe, I first copied all photos, and videoclips, from iPad to a specially created folder on the PC. After thatit was easy to select all files on the iPad with CtlA and deletethem. I could have deselected any of them by Ctl and left click, if Ihad wanted to retain any on them on my iPad.
Earlier I had downloaded a PhotoTransfer app. This did not help in deleting but was nice for WiFitransfers of photos, especially between the iPad and the iPod. But Inow see better options for the same $2.99 price.
The app I would recommend is PhotoManager Pro by Linkus. It promises to do every action you may needrelated to handling photos on the iPad. But if you are an inveteratePicasa user, you could consider the $3.99 app Web Albums for iPad - APicasa Photo Viewer, Uploader, and Manager By Scott Sykora.
In short, not just deleting photos butmanaging them in various ways on the iPad has now become easy. Goodluck with your handling of it!

How do i delete pictures from the camera roll, but keep them in different albums?

i have added pictures from my camera roll into different albums. but every time i try to delete the ones from the camera roll, it asks if i want to delete the picture from everywhere or cancel. how do i keep them in the other albums, but delete them from the camera roll?

You can't because the actual photo is in camera roll. The albums only contain links to the photos. If you delete the photo from camera roll it will be gone from your phone and therefore also removed from any albums that contain links to it.

How do I delete photos from my Camera roll in iOS 7

I have over 1,000 photos in my iPhone Camera Roll. I would like to delete all the photos in the Camera Roll. How do I do this efficiently in iOS 7?

Hi mikeschumann,
Of course you can delete photos from your Camera Roll:
Go into your photos app and select the Camera Roll album
Click on Select at the top right of the screen
Select the photos you want to delete
Click on the Trash can at the bottom of the screen
Just remember, if you have not imported those photos into a photo app on a computer, they will be permanently deleted. You may have them on an iCloud backup, but each backup you do has only the image of the current state of your device. So, if the 1000 photos have been backed up in the last iCloud backup you do, then you delete them, and do another iCloud backup, that backup will not have those photos. Then, say, you take another 100 new photos, and back up to iCloud. That backup will have the most recent 100 photos, but not the 1000 previously backed up.
So, your best bet is to import them to your photo app on your computer, and then select delete photos from device when asked.
Cheers,
GB

Is there a way to delete a photo from the CAMERA ROLL without deleting the same photo from an album?

My camera roll album is too big so I set up different albums to 'move' the phots out of the camera roll. After I moved photos I went to delete the photo from the 'camera roll album' but when I did, it deleted the photos from the other album I moved the photo to. Is there anyway to remove from camera roll while keeping it in the particular album?.

"Why doesn't Apple fix this ? "
Because it is not broken. it works exactly as intended.
"If Microsoft can do it certainly apple could figure it out."
Apple has it figured out. That is what is on the iphone.

How do you delete photos from the albums on 4S?

How do you delete photo's and why is there the camera roll and Iphone roll? most ae duplicates?

Photos synced to iphone have never had a trash can. You delete them the same way you put them there - the sync process.
If you do not want something on the iphone, then go to the phtos tab, deselect it and sync.
Photo Album is not a duplicate. It is simply another place from which to access the same pics as you have in your synced albums. This is how iphone handles photos - always has.
All photos synced to iphone can be accessed from Photo Library. Those very same photos can alos be accessed from your individual photo albums.

How do you delete photos from the photo library and photo stream?

I have photos that were sent to me by email that I accidently saved to my phone. I would like to delelte the photos but there is no "trash" in the Photo Stream or Photo Library. I cannot figure how to delete the photos.

You cannot delete photos from photo library. Photo library is just a huge view of every photo on your iPhone. It is not meant to be deleted unless you do it from iPhoto. However, the only way to delete photo library off your iPhone is to also delete the photos you synced. Think of photo library as you would with your iTunes library: it is just a giant list view of all your music (photos). But then you have playlists (albums) which organize the photos. Also, the photos are not duplicates. When you view a photo from an album, it is the same photo as in your photo library. It's just a shortcut. It takes up no space. However, photos saved from an email should be saved in your camera roll and can be deleted. As for photostream; if you go into it, and hit edit, you can select photos to be deledted. To delete the whole photostream, go to the list of photostreams and hit the blue arrow on the right of the name and you should see an option to delete the photostream. Hope this helped! Good luck.

My iPhone 4S hangs (gets stuck or unresponsive) when deleting photos from the camera roll or use Messages app

I am now on my third replacement phone from Apple because of this issue. My iPhone 4S frequently hangs (gets stuck), without response, when I click on the trash icon to delete a photo, for about 20-30 seconds before becoming responsive again. I notice that this problem of freezing happens also when I use my Messages app for texts. There is no crash that occurs because the app responds after hanging for some time, therefore does not create a crash report to be sent to Apple. I never had this problem on my iPhone 4, and truly regret upgrading to the new device. I bought this phone for the faster processor, however I ended up with a device that is much slower and unresponsive. At the instruction of the multiple geniuses at the Apple store, I've restored the phone numerous times and set it up as a new device to no avail, and have lost app data every time. I've had three different phones now, and the genius cannot resolve my issue. they've even done what's called a DFU mode restore to restore the device firmware, yet no fix. Is anyone having similar issues? I'm starting to think its a software issue, although the apple store kept replacing my phone with a "remanufactured phone" even though I was within the 30 day return period. When I asked to get a new phone from the box, they told me it couldn't be done since I had my device replaced with a repair model already.

I suffer same. AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem. I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media). To no avail. Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either. I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying. This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots. Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

How do you delete photos from an iphone 5 using ios7 that have been uploaded from a computer? Hitch: I no longer have the old computer.

When I was upgrading from the iphone 4 to the iphone 5, i uploaded all of the pictures from the iphone 4 to my computer and then added them to the iphone 5. I no longer have the laptop that the pictures were uploaded to (crashed). There are several pictures that I now wish to remove from my iphone 5 that had been uploaded from the old laptop but am unable to do so. I googled it many times and everything says go back and sync via itunes yadda yadda. i get that part, but i don't have access to the photos anymore from a laptop, only on my phone. when i try to select the photos and delete them, the trash symbol is greyed out. any suggestions or am I just stuck wtith these photos on the iphone 5?

Syncing with iTunes is completely separate from and not related to importing photos and videos from your iPhone's camera roll with your computer.
Have you imported photos from the Camera Roll previously with your computer?
What are you using for the import with your computer?
When I import with my Mac, I'm provided an option to delete the just imported photos and videos from the iPhone's camera roll after the import process is complete. If I choose no, with the next import I'm alerted about the photos/videos being previously imported by my computer - do I want to re-import and replace what was previously imported, or ignore the previously imported content and only import the new content that has not been imported.
