how do i delete photos from camera roll after i add them to specific folders ?

Camera roll is the master list of all photos in the app.  When you place a photo in an album, it's still in the camera roll.

    how do I delete photos from camera roll but keep same photo in album

    You can't. The albums that you created on the iPad do not actually contain copies of the photos, but merely pointers to those photos. If you remove the photos from the camera roll, they will be removed from the iPad. Albums on the iPad are simply for your own organization on the device. Those albums cannot be imported to your computer either, since the photos do not exist in the albums.

  • How can I delete photos from camera roll but not from another album??

    When I create a new album and copy some pictures from the camera roll to the new album, they stay on the camera roll, and when I delete one of the copied ones from camera roll it also gets deleted from the new album, how can I avoid this???

    You can't. The way that I consider it to work is that you are effectively just creating a pointer to the photo in the new album (I don't think that the total number of photos on the device increases when you 'copy' them into new albums), so if you then delete the original photo you will also delete all the pointers to it.

  • On 8.1, how do I delete photos from camera roll but not from photo stream?

    I recently updated to iOS 8.1 on my 5S and was happy to get camera roll back, but unlike in the past, when I delete a picture from camera roll, it also deletes it from photo stream.  This makes no sense; I want to delete it from my phone while keeping it in photo stream - is there something I'm not doing?  Is it a problem with 8.1?  Any help would be appreciated...thanks.

  • How can I delete photos from camera roll to give me more storage

    I Upgraded to an iPhone 4 from a 3GS (mainly because it was a 99¢ promotion).  I have only a little over 1GB—maybe less—left and it doesn't have music on it yet.  I figured my photos are the answer but can't figure out how to delete them from the camera roll.  Any body out there know how?.  Also other ways of getting more room on my 4?  I know a 4s comes with more unless someone gives one away, or another 99¢ promotion comes along I can't afford it on a fixed income.
    THanks!

    I deleted photos from camera roll as well as photo streamer. How to recover photos?

    If the camera roll photos were on your device when you last backed it up, restoring the backup should recover them.  Deleted photo stream photos can't be recovered unless they were also in the camera roll.

  • 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.

  • How do I delete photos in camera roll without deleting in albums?

    How do I delete photos in camera roll without deleting in albums?

    Sorry that is not possible because the album uses a backup from camera roll,so if you delete any photo in camera roll it will be delete the same picture in the album.
    Thanks

  • With icloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from camera roll. I run an older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. Can I transfer pics from i stream to camera roll to allow a non-icloud back up to my PPC? Precious photos are close to 30 day cut-off

    With i cloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from Camera Roll to make space knowing I would have them backed up on icloud via Photo Stream. I now find that my older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. I have an ipad3 too, which of course does. I want to copy photos from Photo Stream back to Camera Roll on the phone so that I can back up "old school" to iphoto on my ancient mac. The controls seem to suggest that as an option but when I select multiple photos in Photo Stream and select "Save to Camera Roll" the photos do not appear on Camera Roll as expected. I am running close to the 30 day limit and do not want to lose hundreds of precious photos (or have to email them to myself individually). Can the ipad3 help at all? Any ideas good people? Dan

    If only it were that easy Winston. I connect with a USB cable, iphoto opens and I can only see the photos in Camera Roll, not Photo Stream. There does not seem to be a way of aceessing other files in the phone from iphoto and, as in my initial message, I can not transfer the photos to Camera Roll on the phone. My iphone and ipad software is up to date, but my iphoto is '08 version 7.1.5 with my mac running 10.5.8 which is the best I can do on the PPC without messing everything up.  I dont have the dough for a new mac or I would have gone for that option...am I stuck?

  • HT201302 how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    how can i delete photos from my iphone after uploading in Iphoto even if i say not to keep on phone

    Hello paolo@spring,
    Just as photos that were taken more than 30 days ago remain on your MacBook Air, so will photos that are deleted from your iPhone.
    Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days.
    Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
    In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.

  • HT201317 How do I move photos from camera roll to photo stream

    How do I move photos from camera roll to photo stream

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Photostream only adds photos taken after photostream activation, it doesn't do video at all.
    To transfer photos from your camera roll taken before activation to your Mac, connect the device by USB and import your photos and videos through iPhoto.

  • How do i move photos from Camera roll to My photo stream on i4s

    how do i move photos from Camera Roll to My photo Stream and then make sure all photos go strait to my photo stream

    Hi Bobnbo,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you want the photos in your Camera Roll to be moved to My Photo Stream. The article linked below answers a lot of frequently asked questions about My Photo Stream, it should answer your question and give you some other general information you may be interested in also.

    When do photos upload to My Photo Stream?
    When you turn on My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will automatically push to your photo stream.
    iOS devices: New photos that you take automatically upload to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and connect to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream doesn't push photos over cellular connections.
    Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture automatically upload when you connect to Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream upload.
    PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.1 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and, under Favorites, select iCloud Photos if you're using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 or later (or Photo Stream if you're using 2.1 to 2.1.3). Open My Photo Stream. Click the Add photos button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.
    I hope this helps.

  • How can i delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

    How can I delete photos from iphone 4s after transferring from pc?

    acapetown is the one who really solved this for me: his suggestion to create an empty folder and sync to that was THE ONLY solution that actually worked for my iphone 4s. Everything else about uncheckign "sync" and unchecking events DID NOT WORK. I think there is more than one glitch in this system because I noticed a lot of other people struggling with the question. Now my phone is light as a feather again and I can actually benefit from backup to the Cloud. Thanks acapetown!

  • How do I copy photo from camera roll to photo stream?

    I've install IOS 5 and set up iCloud.  I now have a Photo Stream album on the phone.  How do I copy a photo from Camera Roll to Photo Stream album?

    I copied some photos to the Photo Stream / Uploads folder on my PC and they did go to my iPhone.  However, they also came back to the Photo Stream / My Photo Stream folder.  So now I have two copies of the photos.  Do I have to keep two copies of each photo on every device?  That doesn't seem too smart.
    I was also trying to copy a photo into the Photo Stream album on the iPhone and, somehow, that photo did get back to my PC.  However, I have no idea how it happened?  Any help there, Apple?

  • How do I transfer photos from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that they sync w/ my PC?

    I want to take pics w/ the phone and then view them on my PC. I can't seem to get the photos and video to move from 'camera roll' to 'photo stream' so that I can work with them on my PC. I can move pics on my PC into the photostream upload folder and those appear quicklly on my phone in the photo stream album.

    How do you do that? I've tried through iPhoto and iTunes and in neither case are the images/videos from the Camera Roll accessable. Images from Photo Stream are, but not Camera Roll. And since images/videos saved from Messages end up in Camera Roll, I can't figure out how to get them either into Photo Stream or transfered to my computer.
