HT4236 i want to delete all the pictures on my phone. but it wont let me even though i have no boxes selected to be synced to my phone how do i go about doing this ?

I'm trying to sync my iPhone 5 with my new macbook pro and im trying to back it up and then start from scratch with no pictures or music on it. but it isnt letting me do so. i have no boxes ticked, andi am doing everything the same way i would normally do it on my old microsoft computer. but it doesnt seem to be working. the pictures on my phone stay on there and they also back up to ym computer. i dont want to have to sit and go through my whole camera roll deleting my pictures. please will someone help me with my query as im getting rather frustrated at trying and constantly failing. if anyone could help id be very grateful. as you can tell im a beginner to the whole macbook, but ive had an iphone for ages and never had this problem on my microsoft computer. thanks in advance

nt want to have to sit and go through my whole camera roll deleting my pictures.
So you do not want to keep any of the pictures you took with your iPhone 5?
Settings > General > Usage - Photos & Camera.
Swipe across Camera roll then tap Delete.

    Hello,
    Sometimes that you see something it saves in cache, (or could be that the show is in progress to be deleted) so here's the problem.
    Just restart your device to see if the cache of the shows deletes themselves.
    Then try to import your music again.
    Cheers.
    You can use this tool to quickly clean all the cache that needs to be deleted-

  • HT201302 what if I do not want to delete all the pictures from the iPad?

    Deleting pictures from iPad 2. When I trasnfer pics from iPad to PC using Windows Photo Gallery import I am given the opportunity to delete them off the iPad BUT only ALL of them.

    This must be done from your computer...
    In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left. Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
    Choose "Sync photos from."
    On a Mac, choose iPhoto or Aperture from the pop-up menu.
    On a Windows PC, choose Photoshop Album or Photoshop Elements from the pop-up menu.
    Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
    Click Apply
    Or... once copied to the PC, use the ipad to delete individual photos.

  • I want to delete all the data

    I have to sale my MacBook and before delivery I want to delete all the data. Howwwwwwwwwww ?..

    First, go to  > About this Mac and see Version. If it's 10.6, 10.5 or your Mac came with DVDs:
    1. Insert the Mac OS X DVD that came with your Mac and press C key while your Mac is starting.
    2. Open Utilities > Disk Utility, choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar and erase the disk.
    3. Install Mac OS X. When the installation finishes, turn off the computer. Remember to give the DVDs to the owner.
    If it's 10.8, 10.7 or your Mac didn't come with discs:
    1. Press Command, Option and R keys while your Mac is starting and open Disk Utility.
    2. Select Macintosh HD in the sidebar and erase the drive.
    3. Install OS X. When the installation finishes, turn off the computer

  • I have a short homemade film burnt onto a DVD, I now want to import the movie into IMOVIE on my MacBook Pro so that I can edit it, how would I go about doing this? Welcoming any guidance.  Thanks in advance.

    I have a short homemade film burnt onto a DVD, I now want to import the movie into IMOVIE on my MacBook Pro so that I can edit it, how would I go about doing this? Welcoming any guidance.  Thanks in advance.

    1. Insert your DVD.
    2. Open Disk Utilities (Application> Utilities> Disk Utilities). Highlight your DVD and press "New Image" on the upper toolbar.
    3. Choose the location you would like to save your DVD from the drop down menu, "Desktop" is usually the best choice. Then click Save.
    4. When finished, your DVD icon will appear on the desktop with the .dmg extension.
    5. With iMovie open, double-click the .dmg  file you created to mount it. The iMovie import window will then appear asking you to choose. Click Import All and wait for the Import to complete.

    Plug it back in and restore it from the backup that is made everytime you sync your phone. iPhone forums are here:

  • If I delete all my photos in my camera roll will it still be in my iCloud ??? And I made a photo stream for pics of me and my friends is t in my iCloud ? I want to delete all my pictures but will it be in my iCloud ?

    If I delete all my photos in my camera roll will it still be in my iCloud ??? And I made a photo stream for pics of me and my friends is t in my iCloud ? I want to delete all my pictures but will it be in my iCloud ?

    Don't rely on iCloud to back up your pictures.  It's designed to sync them to your devices, not back them up.  Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, allowing your devices enough time to download them.  But if you ever lose your device, or have to replace it, any photos older than 30 days will no longer be in iCloud to download.
    To keep your photos, import them to your computer using your usb cable while they are still in your camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  After importing them, you will be given an option to delete them from your device.

  • How do I delete all the photos off my phone

    how do I delete all the photos off my phone ?

    Hi tehdeh,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    There are a couple of ways to do this.  As a precaution, I like to import my pictures to my computer first ... which gives me a backup of the photos, AND gives me the option to delete them after import.  This article explains how:

    If you have synced photos or albums from iTunes to your iPhone, you can remove them that way as well:

  • When I plug in my iPhone to my mac it doesn't sync the music and when I try to sync the music is says that it is with another library and will delete all the songs on my phone to put the ones from my computer on it.

    Whenever I try to sync my phone with my computer it won't automatically sync my new music from my computer to my phone. When i select it to sync it says that it is going to delete all the music off my phone because its already with another device (or something along those lines) but I use my itunes from my computer to my phone. Does anyone know how I can fix this so it will sync. Will all the songs on my phone be on my computer so it won't matter if it deletes them off of my phone?
