How to delete one of your photo albums but doesn't have a red thing

I went on my friend's computer to download my pictures from my pervious phone, I noticed that the pictures came up twice in 2 different albums. It won't allow me to delete on or both of the albums. Also when I take a picture it goes into a third album "Camera Roll". What do I do?

Hello,
This should help.

Under the section on "To delete photos and videos from your device."
When you sync photos from a computer, the only way to remove the photos is through the computer again.
If the photos were inside of a folder, they would be inside an album named after that folder, and you would also have another album named "Photo Library"
Camera roll is, as roaminggnome mentioned, where your photos and videos go that you take on the device. These can be deleted freely on the phone with no issue. Only photos that were moved from a computer will need to be removed through iTunes.
Hope this helps!

    Delete them the same way you put them there.  The sync process.

    Yes but if you have not done so, backup your iPhoto library. That way if there's a problem, you can restore from a backup.

    How to add one or two photos without synchronize my 8240 photos on my ipad2 or iPhon4 ?
    Thank you

    Just add the photos to the folders/location that you last synced and sync them - as only the contents of the last photo sync remains on the iPad, you have to (re-)sync all the photos that you want on the iPad. In theory only the new photos will need processing by the sync process, so it shouldn't take a long time to sync (it hasn't for me when I've added a few to my 1500 photos in the past anyway). Not including photos in a sync is how you remove them from the iPad.
    Your alternative is to email them to yourself and then save them from the email, but they will only go into the Saved Photos/Camera Roll album - come iOS 5 in the Autumn you should then be able to move photos between albums.

  • I'm out of space on my hard drive. How do I move move entire photo albums from iphoto and save them to an external drive to free up space?

    I'm out of space on my hard drive. How do I move move entire photo albums from iphoto and save them to an external drive to free up space?

    You do not move the albums - you move the entire iphoto library intake as a single entity
    Make sure your external drive is formatted Ma OS extended (journaled) - then
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

  • Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    Can anyone help with associate my new iPhone with iTunes? My other old devices are there, but I see only how to delete one, not how to add one.  Thank you.

    iTunes Match is a subscription system that allows you to upload your own music (e.g. coped from CDs) to the cloud so that it shows (in the cloud) on your devices and computers without having to sync/copy it.
    Automatic downloads allows to, for example, buy an app on your computer's iTunes and have it automatically download on your phone without having to connect and sync it or go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your download and download it yourself - but doing that, going to the Purchased tab and redownloading an app, should get it associated.
    But no, I'm not aware of any problems that not having it associated causes.

  • When I updated to iOS 8.3 I lost all shared photo albums on my iPad Air. Other devises which I shared to still have access to photo albums but my iPad does not, therefore I can no longer add or delete to shared albums. I can create new shared albums.

    Hello JimS19,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If you are having issues accessing your Shared Albums from your iPad (but not from your other devices), you may want to double-check your iCloud Photo Sharing configuration as outlined in the following articles, just to make sure it hasn't changed:
    iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ - Apple Support
    Get help using iCloud Photo Sharing and shared albums - Apple Support
    Sincerely,
    - Brenden

  • How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library

    How to delete duplicate pictures from Photo Library in iPhone 3G 16 giga?

    The only way to delete photos from the photo library is by the same way the photos were transferred to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync process.
    Are you saying a photo or all photos transferred to your iPhone via the iTunes sync process are duplicated in your iPhone's Photo Library without being duplicated in the folder on your computer where these photos are stored?

  • Identical iTunes folders on same pc but need to know how to delete one

    I have two identical iTunes folders on my pc. I want to delete one copy to save space but am unable to delete one (or part of it) without deleting the exact same in the other. That is, the action on one folder is exactly mirrored in the other. Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Thanks tt2. Appreciate your help. Fyi, I summed up the size of all my folders and the total exceeded the capacity of my hard drive. And when I deduct the space taken by the iTunes folder, it approximates the capacity consumed. So you are right.

  • Supuid Question: How do you make a new Photo Album on iPhone 3g?

    How do you make a new Photo Album on iPhone 3g?
    When I press photos, it just goes to a screen with Camera Roll and no other buttons to press.
    I have read one article that states to click the "Add" button, but I don't see an Add button or a + button.
    Thanks in advance...

    Thanks for the response.
    So, is there no quick way to put the Camera Roll pictures into an album?
    It seems I have to click on those, send to Mobile Me, then download to my computer and put in the folders I am syncing.
    Not every intuitive at all.
    Thanks again.

  • Did a backup via icloud to my iphone 5 and one of the photo albums dissapeared.

    The Apple store gave me a loaner phone because they are fixing mine. Before they took my phone I did backup via iclould, when I logged in to the loaner phone one of my photo albums disappeared.

    Yes - I connected my phone to my computer / Itunes and went into the apps section, but from there I have no idea how to manage the push notifications.  I even tryied going into itunes that is installed on my phone.  I still cannot find anyplace to manage these popups.  I have also gone into settings - notifiations - and tried turning all notifications for these apps all off but that didnt work either.  Any guidance is MUCH appreciated - Im not sure where to go from here.
