HT204022 photo stream, pictures to the computer and then deleted?

In my albums, photo stream shows up with hundreds of pictures in it.  I want to copy them to my computer and delete them, but I don't seem to know how to do this. 
Help please.
photo stream has no delete button anywhere that i can find. 

Photo stream photos will display a trash icon on the bottom right of your phone when you tap Select, then tap the photos to select them.  The only photo albums on your phone that won't display a trash icon are photos that were originally synced to your phone from a computer using iTunes.  Those photos can only be synced off again using iTunes. 
If that's how these photos got on your phone and they are no longer on your computer, the only way to transfer them back to your computer is to use a 3rd party app such as PhotoSync.  After transferring them to your computer you can delete them by creating an empty folder on your computer, then syncing this folder to your phone by selecting it on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.
If these photos really are in your my photo stream album and selecting them does not reveal a trash icon, then something is wrong with your phone and I suggest you back it up and restore it.

  • Sync ALL photos on the iPhone with the computer and then delete

    I have over 3000 photos on my iPhone that I want to sync with/copy to my computer and then delete off of my phone to make more storage available.  I have attempted to open iTunes and sync but it only completed the most recent 150 that I have taken.    Any recommendations?  I have a PC. Thanks so much!

    Thank  you for the quick reply. I already attempted this.   the only pictures and videos that it prompts me to import/upload are the new ones, which was approximately 150.  The remainder are not being read or being asked to import.  that's the issue.

  • HT4528 Is there a way of deleting the 16,000 verizon technician allow on my i phone when he set up the new verizon settings.  Like loading to the computer and then erasing all, which you cannot do on the phone

    Is there any way of getting rid of the 16,000 e mail on my 4s by load onto the computer and then deleting all.  The  phone only allows you to delete one at a time.

    Delete the account and all the emails will go with it.

    There is nothing to help with.  There is no way to view the pictures in PhotoStream from the iCloud website.

  • Why does IOS 7 enlarge pictures for the wallpaper and then disallow you to make them smaller to fit the screen?

    Why does IOS 7 enlarge pictures for the wallpaper and then disallow you to make them smaller to fit the screen?

    Now correct me if I'm wrong but I am sure I have read that the parallax effect in iOS 7 is the main reason behind wallpapers not being able to be shrunk. However, even disabling the effect will not allow you to resize the pictures like you could in previous versions of iOS, so as Skydiver119 said, it kind of is a glitch. If you are like me, and don't regularly change your wallpaper, then it may be worth creating a photoshop document which is slightly larger than your screen resolution(400px in each direction or so) and then placing your picture to suit, before copying it your device. Obviously, this would not be ideal if you were changing your wallpaper daily or very regularly as it would be a bit of a hassle having to do this every time you wanted to change your wallpaper.
    Hope this Helps!

    Tap on the edit button at  the top right of the email list. This will let you select the emails to delete, once all are selected, tap on the bottom right button that says delete to delete them all at once.

  • HT201317 I can't find my original photo stream pictures, only the more recent ones.

    I can't find my original phot stream pictures, only the more recent ones.  How do I recover them?

    That's because photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted.
    If you still have the older photos on your phone, you can stream them to your PC by adding them to a shared photo stream and inviting yourself as a subscriber (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864).  Or, if they are still in your camera roll on your phone you can import them using your usb cable as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. 
    If they aren't on your phone any more but were in the camera roll when it was last backed up, restoring the backup should recover them.

  • Did some updates yesterday so decided to shut the computer down last night. Turned it on this morning and now for almost an hour the screen is showing a grey background with a picture of the computer and it says "setting up your Mac".   Like it is frozen.

  • HT2498 If I use camera window to download my pictures to my computer, and then I copy and paste the pictures to iPhoto. Would I be ending up having the same pictures in two different files in my computer, and so wasting space in my hard drive?

    I recently bought a canon camera. The instructions of the camara recommend to use the canon software (camara window) to download pictures to my computer.  I would like to have my pictures in i-photo because it syncs them to my ipad.
    I want to download the pictures from my camera to camara window, and then drag and drop the pictures to i-photo. If I keep my pictures in both programs would I be wasting space in my computer hard drive by having the same pictures in two different files?

    Yes.
    Ignore the Canon software. It gains you nothing and adds complexity. Just use iPhoto for the lot.

  • I'm having trouble accessing ICloud to download my Photo Stream pictures to my computer

    I have the IPhone 3GS and I cannot transfer 1,000 pictures that have been backed up to PhotoStream as I took them withthe phone. I want to transfer them from my IPhone to my computer but I can't find a way to do that. I'm told that they are in the ICloud but I don't kow how to download from there to my computer. If I turn off the PhotoStream feature on the phone it says that it will delete the pictures from the phone before I can transfer to the computer.
    I have a PC and just update to Windows 7 Pro 64Bit, sometimes whn I plug the Iphone into my computer with the USB cord it doesn't show up in "Computer" but Itunes does see it.
    Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Given that the word Pending appears in the Keychain in my iPad2 and iPhone 4S, how do I set up iCloud Keychain in my MBP because you say that I shouldn't be able to send an approval request to the iPad2 and iPhone 4S where the iCloud Keychain activation is still pending?
    Big Thanks!

  • If my photos back up to the iCloud and then I delete them off my phone when it backs up again will those photos be deleted?

    I need to delete my pictures off of my iPhone for storage purposes. But I'm afraid that if they get backed up to the iCloud that once I delete them when it backs up again the photos will get deleted. Does anyone know if the photos will always be in the iCloud once backed up or if I delete them after backing them up will they than get deleted after it backs up again?

    They will be deleted.  The new backup will overwrite the backup containing the deleted photos with one that doesn't and they will be lost.  Do as AnaMusic says and import them to your computer.

  • I want to scan a document into the computer and then download it onto a disc or a thumb drive,

    how to scan a document and then download it onto a disc

    Hi SCOOTalong,
    The IJ Scan Utility that comes with the printer can assist you with scanning a document into your computer.  To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
    1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
    2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it.
    3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
    4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN or PHOTO SCAN option on the left pane of the window, depending on what you would like to scan.
    5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
    a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
    b.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder, but if you already have the USB flash drive plugged into your computer, you can select that drive as the location to save the scanned document.
    6. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the window to save the changes. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
    7. Click the DOCUMENT or PHOTO button, depending on what you are trying to scan. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
    If you find that you need advanced scanning options such as adjusting resolution, brightness, contrast, saturation, color balance, etc. in addition to the options selected above, please click on the SCANGEAR button on the IJ Scan Utility Main screen, then adjust the items as necessary.
    Once the document has been scanned into your computer, you can insert the CD into your computer, then navigate to the area where you saved the scanned document and burn it to the CD.  If you did not scan the document directly to the USB flash drive, you can copy and paste the document to the USB flash drive from the save location.
    Hope this helps!

  • I have two libraries on the same computer but different logins, there is my user account for the computer and then there is my grandma's, how do i get my music without having to resync on both libraries?

    this computer has two logins, my grandma's (which is the administrator) and mine, itunes is on both logins but on my login i have some music there and hers i have my other music.. i want to be able to redownload my music on my ipod touch with out having to resync back and forth between libraries.. how do i combine the libraries because if i go with one or the other i lose my music i have purchased, on both libaries the music belongs to me not my grandma,
    Also, a few weeks ago, I loaned the IPOD to somebody and they told me that evidently the IPOD had been hacked and that it had lost all the music.  When I got it back, I re-synced it and got some of the music back.  After talking to other people, I now suspect that my "friend" tried to do something he wasn't suppose to to and the IPOD shut down or that he was trying to create an Apple ID of his own without paying for it.  Now that I have it back, I just want to get the music back that I paid for that is already associated with my ID and that is in my two libraries.  I can see them in there (on the computer), I just can't access them to download  them on the IPOD.  Can you help?

    There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Just to summarise what's in the link above:
    Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. If you've had no success with this you can have a look through the guide on this page: Loading songs onto iPod automatically
    Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
    You can read about Windows user accounts here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

  • My macbook memory is nearly full, how can I export older photos to an external hard drive, and then delete to free up some memory?

    I do not want to move whole iphoto library to an external hard drive as this will be a bit of a pain. I just want to moves older photos out of my iphoto library, and save them on an external hard drive to save for the future. I have heard that if you copy and move/paste from iphoto then it only copies a small version of the file, not the original full sized version. I would not want to lose any quality of the pictures I have currenty saved.
    I would appreciate if anyone could advise what is the best possible way of doing this. I am very nervous about not being able to use my photos in the future due to file size, or even worse, losing them.
    many thanks,

    In iPhoto, Select All the Photos you want to move... Then goto  > File > Export >
    Choose the settings as seen here
    Click Export and select your External Drive
    Best to create a Folder to put them in... and away you go...
