I can't delete an album on my iPhone 4

Anyone know how to delete albums that were synced from my computer?
I have deleted them before, so know it's possible, but for some reason, since the iOS5 upgrade, it's been made nigh on impossible. What am I doing wrong? I've followed everyone's advice in the support groups, but it's just not happening for me.....
Help?

OK, everyone, I did it at last!
Did it the old fashioned way, which is how most of you told me to do it anyway, and it finally worked. I don't understand why it's not been working, but hey ho!
Thank you for all your help.
Photos>select album>revert>apply. Simples but didn't want to work this morning.
THANKS!

How can I delete photo albums from my iphone

I uploaded albums from computer to my iphone and now it's in there twice, one as the actual album and then the entire album is copied to my photo library. I dodn't need to have all the pics in 2 albums and I can't delete them individually.

If I understand you correctly they are not in there twice your photo library is just everything on your phone, the photos albums and the photo library are just accessing the same picture.

I can't delete photo albums on my iPhone 5 iOS 6.0.2

I created albums by iTunes and moved it to my iPhone 5 twice! so now i want to delete the repeated album, but i cant. I can't delete the photos either.

Then perhaps you need to upgrade your computer? If your computer is not compatible with the current version of iTunes:
PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
I assume Windows computer. If your Windows computer isn't compatible with these requirements, I suggest donating to the local old folks home and getting a PC from this century.

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

How can I delete Photo albums in iPhone 4s. I am using OS 10.5.8 Mac Book Pro

I would like to delete several albums from my iPHone 4s. I have a MacBook Pro, OS 10.5.8. I only can delete single photos from camera roll.

You can't delete albums in your device because it syncs your iPhoto configuration. To delete an album, you must delete it in iPhoto, but there's a solution. Connect your device to your computer, open iTunes, select your iPhone in the sidebar, go to Photos tab and select the albums you want to sync

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken tracks only from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If you don't see them straight away it may help to restart iTunes. While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

Can I create an album on my iphone and have it stores all the photos I take from then on to that folder/album?

can I create an album on my iphone and have it stores all the photos I take from then on to that folder/album?
I think that would be super useful before you go to an event, create a folder on the phone for that event and just use it to take pictures. All the pictures for the event will be in that album and no need to move pics around at a later time!

That would be great, but unfortunately, all new pictures automatically go into the Camera Roll.
I wish that once you created an album and selected it to import from the Camera Roll, it would delete from the Camera Roll.

Every time I sync my iPhone with iPhoto I end up getting duplicate photos on my iPhone. The other problem is that I can not delete the dups on my iPhone. Does anyone have an answer to this problem?

Mike whether I create a folder within the Pictures Folder that iTunes uses to sync photographs or just copy them into the main folder the result is the same, I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
The User Manual for iOS5 states ...
You can create, rename, and delete albums on iPhone to help you organize your photos and videos.
Create a album: When viewing albums, tap Edit, then tap Add. Select photos to add to the new album, then tap Done. Note: Albums created on iPhone aren’t synced back to your computer.
Rename an album Tap Edit, then select an album.
Rearrange albums Tap Edit, then drag up or down.
Delete an album Tap Edit, then tap the delete sign.
Yes I can Add a new Album, but cannot delete an album already created. The delete sign does not appear.
In iTunes the only folder that I can see listed is the man one into which iTunes stores pictures, which I have named iPhone Photos.
When I look on my PC this iPhone Photos folder contains another folder named iPod Photo Cache and a multitude of folders created by iTunes, the named F00, F01,F02 etc etc. and a Photo Database file.
Now whether I create a seperate folder within iPhone Photos to store my favourite photos in, or just copy them all into the iPhone Photos folder without being encased within another folder, or create a folder inside the iPod Photo Cache folder the result is the same ...
I end up with Photo Library plus another album containing an identical set of pictures as contained in Photo Library.
I am going around in ever decreasing circles here and getting nowhere fast!!

I need to delete an Album on my iPhone...

the Album in question is on my iPhone but is not in my iTunes library.
This means that I when I connect to iTunes I do not have the option of unclicking the album.
I am also unable to delete the album from the iphone manually.
There are over 5'000 pictures in the album which is taking up over 3gig of my available space.
What can I do?
Rosie.

This User Tip Should help you some: What is "Other" and What Can I Do About It?
Ultimately, you can use Settings > General > Usage to also look to make sure you messages and emails are too large as they contribute to "Other" as you will read in that article above.
