How to delete photos from faces folder?

Hi my iPhoto events are all clear of photos as are all my folders.  However I have 4000 photos sitting in the faces folder - how do I delete these?

Sorry but that doesn't make sense to me. There is no reason to remove the faces thumbnails. Are you trying to empty a library or something? If so, don't waste your time. Just trash it and make a new one.

    How to delete photos from photo library?

    Connect your device to your computer, open iTunes, go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, uncheck the folder containing the photos you want to remove (or to remove them all, uncheck "Sync Photos"), then click Apply at the bottom to sync your device.  If you only want to remove individual photos rather than the entire folder, move them out of the folder on your computer, then sync.

  • I am sorry but I don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone that were sys from a computer.

    I just don't understand how to delete photos from my Iphone placed there by Syc.

    Well, if they were synced fomr a computer then the iPhone says the computer "owns" them for instructional purposes.  You have two options.
    1) Plug your iPhone up to any computer with iTunes.  You can get itunes at www.itunes.com  Then tell it to sync photos, but then select no photos or an empty folder.  This will override what the previous computer put on your iPhone.
    2) Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings and say goodbye to everything including those synced photos.  If you make a quick backup first in iCloud (be sure it finishes) then you can restore form your iCloud backup via Wifi and those synced photos wont be there.  How to backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

    how to delete photos from photo library iphone4s?

    Nope I am using the same Photo Library, not the camera roll and by the looks of it you don't have your iphone updated to the newst version because I have an extra field in the bottom bar for photostreaming.
    When I go in any of the above folders I can remove pictures as well as you can see in the pictures below!?
    Hope this helps...

    How to import photos from a folder that contains hundreds of folders to Photos keeping the same folder structure?

    You'll have to do that manually, i.e. export each album of photos to a folder with the same name located on your hard drive via  the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option.

  • HT201302 How to delete photos from camera roll only, let the rest remain in albums? Is there any no-PC or no iTunes solution for this?

    How to delete photos from camera roll only, let the rest remain in albums? Is there any no-PC or no iTunes solution for this?

    If these are albums, you created on your phone, using pics in your camera roll, you delete the pics from your camera roll & they will be deleted from the albums as well. The albums don't actually contain any photos, only pointers to the actual photos, which are in your camera roll.
    So, the answer to your question is no.

  • TS1314 how to delete photos from my Ipad?

    I'd like to delete photos from my Ipad, I've synced with my MacBook Pro, but can't figure out how to delete from Itunes.  Any suggestions?

    When you go into iTunes to 'sync the photos off' you deselect that photos folder you selected to sync them on. then do a sync to confirm that choice.

  • How to delete photos from synced albums?

    Hi,
    after a holiday I sync all photos taken with my iPad 1. I want to delete bad photos and resync them with my PC. But I can't delete photos from my iPad/iPhone. Is there any possibility to delete single photos?
    Thanks

    You can't delete photos synced from your computer directly on your phone, they are deleted by changing your photo sync selection when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    You can remove all photos that you synced from your computer by selecting and syncing just an empty folder.
    If you want to keep some of them on your phone then you will either need to use a third-party app to copy them back to your computer so that you can then include them in the photo sync ; or download a third-party photo management app on your phone such as Photo Manager Pro which you can copy the photos that you want to keep to (that app can copy photos to/from the Photos app and your computer) and then sync an empty folder to Photos

  • How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

    Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?
    finding it hard to get a straight answer on this, so maybe have to go to a local shop and find out.

    Refer to this Faq.
    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
    replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
    make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
    Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
    an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Yes I want to know the answer too.
    If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
    Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
    I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
    and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
    again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
    will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
    if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
    and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

  • TS3989 how to delete photo from photo stream

    how can i delete photos on photo stream on my i phone

    How do I delete photos from my Photo Stream?
    You can delete photos from your Photo Stream the same way you delete other photos from your device. Just select the photo you want to remove and tap or click Delete. When you delete a photo from Photo Stream on one device, iCloud will automatically delete it from the Photo Stream album or view on your other devices.
    Note: Deleting individual photos from Photo Stream is supported by iOS 5.1 or later, iPhoto 9.2.2 or later, Aperture 3.2.3 or later, and Apple TV Software Update 5.0 or later. You will need to manually delete photos you downloaded to iOS devices running iOS 5.0.1 or earlier after updating to iOS 5.1.

  • Cannot delete photos from panorama folder

    Even though I have a 5c, I never tried the panorama feature until after upgrading to iOS 8. After taking the panorama, I wasn't pleased with it, and deleted it. The photo was moved to the new "Recently Deleted" folder, but also to the "Panoramas" folder. I know I can't delete the folder, but now I can't delete the panorama from the folder. In fact, since the original photo was "not editable," I created a duplicate in the folder, which I also can't delete. (Both have since been deleted permanently from the "Recently Deleted" folder.) No matter what method I try, I can't delete these photos, and only these two photos.
    Please tell me they're not stuck there forever.

    Not only was this design change an extremely bad idea, after updating my phone, it moved all the pics from my camera roll into a photos album that cannot be edited.  I can no longer delete any of these pics from my phone or from the USB connection, except from the camera roll which was added back. Now what??
    How am I supposed to get rid of all the pics I don't want? This idiotic change created a big mess for me that there appears to be no way out of...
    GIVE US BACK CONTROL OF OUT PHONES, AND STOP SCREWING WITH OUR ABILITY TO DELETE PICS!!!
    I AM EXTREMELY UNHAPPY WITH APPLE NOW!
