HT4236 Having trouble deleting synced photos from phone

I deleted all my photos on my camera roll but I am not able to delete all of the albums.

Hi Natiyellowboi!
The answer to your question is located in the article you have linked above, and I will highlight it here:
iTunes: Syncing photos
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4236
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • HT201077 I am having trouble deleting individual photos from my iPad on shared photo streaming.

    I am having trouble deleting individual photos on Shared Photo Streaming on my iPad 2. There is not a trash can or delete option. If I choose edit on the first page, and I try to delete, the next step is to cancel photo sharing, which I don't want to do.

    Youre trying to delete photos from someone else's shared photostream. You can only delete photos that belong to you.

  • Having trouble deleting syned photos from my iPod Touch

    When I first got my iPod touch, I made a folder of pictures I wanted on the iPod; mostly of my family and a few wallpapers for my touch screen. But now the folder is taking up extra space on my iPod and I want to remove it. The only trouble is, I deleted the folder from my PC and didn't bother to back it up with a disk because I didn't realize I would need the folder in my files later on to remove the pictures. The short end of it is the pictures seem to be permanently attached to my iPod.
    What can I do to delete them for good??
    and also, will this affect my downloaded pictures in my camera roll??

  • I would like to know how I can delete sync photos from my ipad as I have tried everything to delete them as they are unwanted and it was a first time try

    I am having problems deleting unwanted photos from my photos app on my ipad, I synced with my pc as i wanted to see how the system worked, and now i cannot delete any of them, even with the delete button at the top left hand side, which does not function

    If it was synced from your computer then it can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need remove/de-select it from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • I am having trouble getting my photos from my iPhone to my PC.

    I am having trouble getting my photos from my iPhone to my PC. My iPhone no longer shows up in my Windows Explorer, and I can't get them from iTunes or iCloud either. The Photo Stream folder is empty. Any help is much appreciated.

    Thanks Razmee. Actually the phone is synching, but only apps and music. There's no way I can find to get my photos through iTunes. When I go to the photos option in iTunes, I can only synch the photos from my computer to the iPhone and not vice versa (which I don't understand why it would ever be necessary to move photos from the computer to the phone, but oh well). I use to get my photos by accessing the phone itself from Windows Explorer, but now the phone won't appear in Explorer for some reason. I also tried connecting from the Photo Stream folder on my PC, but it was still empty even after it seemingly connected. I just want to move my photos to my PC without having to email each one individually.

  • I am having trouble on transferring photos from iPhoto to my Seagate External Hard Drive

    Im new to Mac and I was doing fine with my new laptop but somewhere along the way I have reach to a point where I cant continue my work. I am having trouble on transferring photos from iPhotos to my Seagate External Hard Drive, even when the hard drive is compatable with my MacBook Air. Some how I have trouble trying to drag my photos to my drive and it is not letting me to do so. Pls. help me in my sistuation or derect me to a website that will answer my questions. I am getting really upset and frustrated; so I'm out of ideas.

    even when the hard drive is compatable with my MacBook Air.
    What is the file system on that drive? Is it formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled)?
    And what is your iPhoto version? iPhoto 9.5.1?
    Some how I have trouble trying to drag my photos to my drive and it is not letting me to do so
    What exactly happens when you try to drag photos to your drive? Are you dragging from iPhoto's window to the drive?
    Can you export your photos, when you select the photos on iPhoto and use the command "File > Export"?

  • How to delete synced photos from iphone 5

    I accidentally synced photos from my pc to my iphone 5.  Anyone know how to get them off my iphone??? I tried unclicking the box on the photo sync and re-syncing and they're still on my phone.  There is no delete option on any of the folders on the iphone nor are there any on the individual photos. 

    or you can use this?

  • Why can't I delete synced photos from my iPhone?

    Early iPhones did not have especially good cameras, so this was not an issue. However, starting with the iPhone 4s, it became clear that iPhones would begin to replace standard point-and-shoot cameras. Space would soon become a problem. You could be on a trip and begin to run out of space and find that any photos you had synced using iTunes (before your trip) could not be deleted. Even if you had an iPad with more storage, you could not delete those older synced photos. Apparently, you were supposed to have brought your Mac or PC on the trip, just so that you could use iTunes To delete synced photos.
    I don't understand Apple's rationale for this limitation.
    As of this writing, Apple does not provide a tablet that runs iTunes. So it would seem that the only solution is to buy a PC tablet such as Microsoft surface tablet. Only then would you have a full fully portable tablet that would allow you to run the iTunes program to delete old synced photos and make more room on your iPhone.
    Of course you can use airdrop to transfer photos from the iPhone camera roll to an iPad and then delete them from your iPhone, but why would you want to get rid of the newer photos on your iPhone rather than the old ones that had been synced before your trip?
    SInce Apple does not offer a tablet that runs OS X (and therefore is iTunes capable), this policy would seem to be in advertisement for Microsoft.
    Am I missing something?

    When the new iCloud Photo Library and its accompanying Photo app for Mac is available, this problem will go away. In the mean time, you have another option. Instead of syncing albums or photos from your photo library onto your device, why not create a shared Photo Stream with the older photos you want to have with you? Those can be deleted as you wish.
    Or, as Ralph suggested, if you are planning a trip, remove the excess photos before you leave so you do not run out of room.

  • How do I delete synced photos from my IPad 2? My computer is no longer holding a charge and I would like to delete photos I synced without my computer

    I hope that it is not true that I cannot delete photos thaI synced to my iPad. I cannot use my computer because it is not charging. How do I remove synced photos from my iPad without the use of my ITunes?

    This is a problem. Normally you do need to connect to the computer you've synced ith previously to delete albums that were copied from that computer.
    In the case where the old computer fails, crashes or is sold or discarded, you need to get all of your stuff off the iPad and onto a new computer. Visit Apple support to learn how to do this. Once you establish a new tunes library on a different computer you can sync and delete the photo albums you no longer want.
    Another option is to restore your iPad to its original state. That will delete everything including photos, non default apps, music, videos, etc.
    Once reset and erased you can download all purchased apps again.

  • HT4236 How do I sync photos from my iPhone to my ipad?

    How do I sync photos from my iPhone to my ipad?
    THank you!

    As user Winston Churchill told another user with your same question:
    "Enable photo stream synchronisation on both devices in settings> iCloud. Note; only photos taken after synchronisation is enabled will be added to photo stream.
    To sync any photos that are not part of photo stream, you will need to sync the photos to your computer via iTunes first and then to the other device."

  • HT4236 how can I sync photos from iphone5 to aperture on my iMac? appreciate any help : )

    How can I sync photos from iphone5 to aperture3 on imac  OS 10.8.4?
    Thanks for response. : )

    You can't sync, but you should be able to import photos from your iPhone's Camera Roll with Aperture as with any other digital camera.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Is your iPhone not recognized by Aperture when connected to your computer?
    If not, is your iPhone recongnized by iPhoto or the Image Capture application when connected?

  • Zune software - sync - deleted recent photos from phone accidently - photo restore options?

    This weekends photos I was syncing to PC and hit the other zune option to delete instead of sync the photos to my collection on my PC.  Is there anyway to restore the photos from the phone that were deleted?  Assuming that since there is no way currently to view the internal memory card outside of zune software, I'm going to need to see if a Verizon specialist at the store can restore any recent photos with their special equipment at the store for transfering contacts and restoring flash memory cards unless the internal memory / system zune complete wipes out with one wrong click!  Another poor support software glitch in Microsoft's Zune / Kin realtionship. 
     "Not even a second dialog box saying are you sure you want to delete photos from you phone's memory!"  
    As much as Zune and the Kin TwoM, there is always something getting away from thsi phone being great

  • Is there a way to delete all photos from phone at once, or does it have to be done individually?

    How can I delele all photos from my iphone?  Can I delete all at once, or do I have to go through and delete each one-at-a time?  I'm trying to free space for more photos, and they are already in the cloud and on my computer.  Thanks

    Are these photos in your camera roll? If so, you can't delete them using iTunes, & if you've already imported them to your computer, but left them on your phone...you're not clear on that...I suspect whatever program you used to import them doesn't see them anymore...is that correct? If so, you'll have to either mark to delete one at a time, or use third-party software to delete them.

  • Im having troubles importing my photos from my iPhone to my mac iPhoto because they're not in my camera roll. It;s saying they're in my 'mac events' but my computer isn't recognizing it. Does anyone know what to do? please help.

    I just got a new macbook and before i had to sync all my photos from my old mac onto a bunch of flash drives and most are on my phone. Ive successfully imported the flash drives and the photos on my camera roll to my new macbook iPhoto but not the other 1,000+. My computer isn't recognizing it maybe because its in 'mac events'. Does anyone know what to do? Please help it would be greatly appreciated especially since i don't have much room left on my iphone anymore. thank you.

    You'll need third party software to get the images not on your camera roll. iExplorer is one such app, but there are others. Search on MacUpdate
