Did you read my previous post?
It looks like you are trying to delete files from your phone using Windows Explorer.
You cannot do this.
Follow the instructions in the article provided by ChitlinsCC here to delete those pictures: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201313

  • How can i delete photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s.  when it was synced, the photos went to two folders and not to the camera roll

    How can I delter photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s?  When I synced the new phone from the Itunes, the photos went to two folders and not the camera roll. 

    thanks, should I delete all the phones on Itunes and re sync the old phone, then resync the new phone to get the pictures?  Will they go to camera roll instead of a folder?

  • Hp 10 plus can't delete photos on SD card from tablet Gallery or Photos

    Cannot delete photos on SD card from Gallery or Photos apps. Process says photo deleted but it is still on the SD card!

    Hey @JPLAR ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    Sounds like you're running KitKat. If you're using Android 4.4 please see the following:
    KitKat and SD cards — what's fixed, what's broken and what's misunderstood.
    How can I get Android KitKat to work with my SD cards?
    I would suggest trying a different app like ES File Explorer or something similar. KitKat permissions do not allow manipulation of files that are not in the same install directory as the app itself. The Gallery app is on the internal storage while the data is on your SD card, hence the issues.
    Hope this helps!

  • In Iphoto, How can I delete photos on my iphone that have already been imported?

    I've just spent over the hour on the phone with my sister (who has a law degree, I have an engineering degree), and we could not figure out how to delete photos from our iphones that have already been imported into Iphoto.  I thought Apple was the company that made things easier???  This is a nightmare.
    The way it should work:
    - Launch iPhoto
    - Stand on iPhone (Under Devices)
    - Select photo to delete (under Already Imported)
    - Right-Click Delete (or Send to Trash, or Something)
    Obviously we are not thinking like Apple thinks...does anyone know how to do this, or are these programs as crap as they seem and you have to go back to your iphone and select each photo one at a time (all several thousands of them).
    Don't even get me started on how messed up my photo libraries have become now that I have (fully) switch over to Apple.
    By the way, I like my Mac for everything else...but its photo capabilities suck.

    Thanks, I was hoping for something a little more selective that I could do from my computer, but I think this is helpful.
    Maybe the best approach to get this under control is:
    - Import all photos into iphoto
    - Delete all photos per your suggestion
    - Selectivly sync the photos you want put back on your phone
    Thanks again, I didn't know this and is a helpful trick!
    P.S. I still wouldn't mind finding a way to selectively delete files that are on my iphone from my computer.  (In Windows, you can go to My Computer -> Iphone, open the folder and delete what you want).

  • How can I delete photos and or albums from my iphone without having to delete them in all locations?  I have some pictures in an album that i want to remove them from but when I try it asks do I want to delete picture  from all loc

    I have pictures in albums on my iphone.  I want to delete them from one album but when I try it asks to delete the picture from all locations.  I only want to delete it from 1 album.  Is this possible to do?

    You can delete photos from individual albums but not from the camera roll.  If you try to delete a photo from camera roll it will be deleted from all other albums ("locations") that contain the photo.  This is because the actual photo is in the camera roll (the albums only contain links to the photo in camera roll, not the actual photo).

  • 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

  • How can I delete photos on my iphone after they aredownloaded to my ipad

    I have too many photos on my iphone camera roll. I want to delete from my iphone but keep them on my ipad.
    When i try to delete, the message says they will be deleted from all my devices...help.

    You can import photos from the iPhone to the computer and then sync them to the other devices, such as the iPad. It isn't safe to keep a large number of pictures in the Camera Roll. They are designed to be imported to the computer just like pictures on a digital camera. If something happens to the phone, this is the first thing individuals gripe about losing. If the pictures are on the computer, at least you can sync them back to another device if necessary.

  • Can I delete photos on my iPhone or iPad after they are on my iCloud? How do I retrieve pics from iCloud?

    Can I delete pictures off my device once I have pics on my photo stream? How do I pull them from iCloud once they are deleted?
    Thanks!!!

    Yes.  To back up your photos, save them to your computer while they were in the camera roll, as explained here:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  You will get an option to delete them from your device after they are imported.
    If you have photo stream photos that you need to back up, save them from your my photo stream album to your camera roll.  Then they can be imported too.

  • Can I delete photos on my iPhone after putting them on iPhoto?

    When all of my photos are on iPhoto, can I just delete them off of my phone and will they still be on iphoto?

    First make sure your iPhone is signed into your iCloud account and is setup to use Photo Stream:
    First make sure you're signed in to iCloud on the Mac in System/iCloud preferences and have Photo Stream enabled:
    Next launch iPhoto, go to the Photo Stream preference pane and make sure it's set up as shown here:
    You will have to wait a bit until Photo Stream has time to synce between your iPhone and your Mac.
    Check the Events for imports from Photo Stream.  They'll be titled something like this:
    You can set the sort order in the Event mode to this to get the latest imports at the top of the Event window:

  • How can i delete photos in a folder from my Iphone 4s?

    On accident, I synced pictures from my computer onto my phone. I have many pictures on my computer and now it is taking up a lot of space on my phone. The problem is i dont know how to get the pictures off my phone now. The pictures are in knew files, and there is no opption on the phone to delete the pictures or its folder. Can anyone help??

    Try connecting the phone to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone in iTunes, go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, uncheck Sync Photos, then click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.  Then check your phone to see if any photos library photos remain.  If they do, check Sync Photo again and sync.  If prompted about removing existing photos on your phone, accept.  This should remove the older photos and replace them with the photos on your computer (without duplicates).  After doing this, if you don't want any of these photos on your phone, uncheck Sync Photos and sync again to remove them.
