How to delete photos with no option to sync in iTunes

I'm trying to delete photo albums from my iphone 4s, but when connecting to iTunes, there is no 'photo' tab to allow me to re-sync and remove some albums. This is v2 of the phone, the original having drowned in a vegas pool, and not sure if the issue is from these photos basically being put on this phone from an icloud backup. Surely there's some way of deleting them though, right?!?!?! 

Apple aren't here. As you're the only person with this problem that I've seen on here, I would suspect that its more a local problem on your machine than something Apple need to fix.
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for the iPod Photo Cache.
Trash it. Start iPhoto and try sync again.

  • How to delete photos with Zero KB size that were downloaded onto mac pro osx vers 10.5.8, 2x2.8 quad core intel Xeon ?

    How to delete picture files ( nikon NeF and jpeg )  with Zero  KB  size that were downloaded onto mac pro osx vers 10.5.8, 2x2.8 quad core intel Xeon
    -- have not been able to move them or move them to trash without  crashing  Finder  ?

    Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive & clear caches.)
    Try trashing them in Safe Mode, reply if that doesn't help.

    In itunes, the Photos tab, can't you turn off syncing?  Doing so will remove photos from the device.

  • How to delete photos in my Ipad

    How to delete photos in Ipad

    Photos that were synced from your computer using iTunes can only be deleted by de-selecting them from the folder from where they were synced -  and then re-syncing.
    Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
    Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
    Click on the Photos Tab on the right.
    If you want to remove all of the Photos - uncheck the Sync Photos from Heading
    Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
    If you are using iTunes 11 - this will be helpful, Setting up syncing in Windows.

  • 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 transferred from mac to iphone ?

    I have searched on Google "how to delete photos transferred from mac to iPhone"
    It returned the following result :
    To do so just:
    In iTunes select the device icon in the Devices List on the left. ...
    Choose Sync photos from, being iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac and Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements on a Windows PC.
    Choose Select Albums and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply.
    But the problem here is that I have deleted the album which I synced via iTunes on Mac.
    Now how can deleted those synced photos from my iPhone ?

    No. Hook it up to any computer running iTunes. Make sure that you do not have any of the other tabs set up to sync, so that you do not overlay the info you have on your device for Music, Movies, etc., then go the the Music tab and un-check Sync Music. This should remove all sync'd music from your device. (this is presuming that the Mac you sync with does not have any photos you do want to sync with your device. If it does have any photos you want to sync, then instead of turning off the Music syncing altogether, you can just select what you do want to sync, and the sync will remove all other sync'd albums).

    How to delete photos on the i-pad?

    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncin.
