How do you delete pictures on your iphone that were downloaded from your computer or memory card?

How do you delete pictures on your iphone that were downloaded from your computer or memory card?

There is NO other way to get photos off your phone, that were synced to your phone, other than through the iTunes sync process. Just make sure there are no checks, in any boxes, for any photos, that you do not want on your phone.

How do I delete photos on my iPhone that were transferred from iPhoto to my phone?

I recently transfered most of my photos from my iphone to iphoto on my macbook. A couple of days later I transfered some of them back onto my iphone, but now when i look at them on my iphone there is no way to delete them there. Ive tried everything but nothing works. I simply cannot delete photos on my iphone that were transfered there from iphoto.
I thought apple was supposed to make things easier, but apparently not.

Correct. You need to Un-sync them using your Computer.
Basically do the opposite of what you did to get them on your Device.

How do i delete photos on my iphone that were previously deleted from itunes? cannot remove photos from iphone album. trash can is greyed out.

how do i delete photos on my iphone that have already been deleted from my windows laptop? The photos cannot be selected and removed from the iphone album. trash can is greyed out.

You should be able to delete the photos by syncing with iTunes. Either remove the checkmark beside "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes or change the selection of photos to be synced. Each time you sync it is supposed to set the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/selection in iTunes.

HT6154 How do I delete photos on my iPhone that were not taken on my phone, but somehow got synced with my computer?

I have many photos on my phone that I want to delete. They were taken with a camera and imported to my MacBookPro. When I synced my iphone, the photos got added to my phone. I cannot delete them. How do I get rid of them?

You delete them by syncing again using iTunes. If you want to delete all previously synced photos, remove the checkmark in front of "Sync Photos From" on the photos page of iTunes (after you have connected the phone and before you sync). If you just want to remove some of the photos, change the selection of photos to be synced in that same page on iTunes. Each time you sync via iTunes, the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone are set to match the current iTunes settings.

In Iphoto, How can I delete photos on my iphone that have already been imported?

I've just spent over the hour on the phone with my sister (who has a law degree, I have an engineering degree), and we could not figure out how to delete photos from our iphones that have already been imported into Iphoto. I thought Apple was the company that made things easier??? This is a nightmare.
The way it should work:
- Launch iPhoto
- Stand on iPhone (Under Devices)
- Select photo to delete (under Already Imported)
- Right-Click Delete (or Send to Trash, or Something)
Obviously we are not thinking like Apple thinks...does anyone know how to do this, or are these programs as crap as they seem and you have to go back to your iphone and select each photo one at a time (all several thousands of them).
Don't even get me started on how messed up my photo libraries have become now that I have (fully) switch over to Apple.
By the way, I like my Mac for everything else...but its photo capabilities suck.

Thanks, I was hoping for something a little more selective that I could do from my computer, but I think this is helpful.
Maybe the best approach to get this under control is:
- Import all photos into iphoto
- Delete all photos per your suggestion
- Selectivly sync the photos you want put back on your phone
Thanks again, I didn't know this and is a helpful trick!
P.S. I still wouldn't mind finding a way to selectively delete files that are on my iphone from my computer. (In Windows, you can go to My Computer -> Iphone, open the folder and delete what you want).

HT204022 How do I delete photos on my phone that were synced in from iPhoto? I do not want these photos on my phone!

This is what the website says to do:
On an iOS 7 device
In the Photos app, tap Shared at the bottom of the screen, then tap Streams at the top of the screen.
Tap the shared stream you want to remove, tap People, then tap Unsubscribe (if you’re a subscriber) or Delete Photo Stream (if you’re the owner).
You can also tap Shared, tap Edit, tap the Remove button on the left side of the shared stream you want to remove, then tap Unsubscribe (if you’re a subscriber) or Delete (if you’re the owner).
However, when I go into my photos app, there is nothing that says "shared" at the bottom of the screen.

unsync via itunes
plug device into computer - open itunes- click name of device click photos- uncheck all photos you want to remove- sync or apply at bottom
Peace, Clyde

HT201317 how do i photostream photos on my iphone that were there before i enabled the photostream feature?

How do I delete photos on my iPad that were added with the SD card adaptor?

I added photos to my iPad using the SD Card Adaptor over a year ago. They now appear in the 'Photos' tab on the iPad. They are not in Photo Stream and they do not appear in Albums under Camera Roll or Last Import. I have connected my iPad to the PC and opened the DCIM folder and they are not there at all.
I have Googled this question repeatedly and can not find an answer. I have viewed many YouTube tutorials that I thought would give me the right answer and... nope.
Can anyone please help?

Thanks Clyde. But the photos do not show up in iTunes either!
Well, let's just say, that I can't see them there! All I see in iTunes under Photos is the option to Sync photos.

How do I delete photos in Iphoto library that have not been imported?

How do I delete photos in Iphoto library that have not been imported?

How did they get there and how do you know that they are there?
If they were not imported and iPhoto is not aware of them then you can be sure your current backup is up to date and tested, quit iPhoto and drag them to the finder trash - But be very careful because if you trash any items that iPhoto knows about you will corrupt your library
Before you empty the trash, launch iPhoto again and be sure everything is working correctly
It is recommended that you never modify the iPhoto library using anything except iPhoto or iPhoto aware programs like iPhoto Library Manager including adding, modifying or deleting items, files or folders within the iPhoto library
Your current case may be one of the very unusual exceptions to this - if they were put there without iPhoto's knowledge

How to delet photos that were downloaded from the computer?

Resync the iPad with the computer, but before doing so, click on the device once it is hooked up to iTunes. You will see the Device Profile to the right with several tabs - Photos being one of them. Select the Photos tab, and either uncheck the Sync Photos box at the top (if you don't want any of the photos to be on your device), or uncheck the selected photos you no longer want to sync.
Cheers,

I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox.
There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer?

How can I get rid of photos that were downloaded from my computer? I need to free up space on my iPad

Assuming that you synced the photos from iTunes - or whatever downloaded means - you must use iTunes again in order to remove the songs from the iPad. You have to uncheck the albums in the photos folder that you sync from in the Photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync.
