I have deleted all my photos but it still say 6 GB on my phone

I started to run out of room on my phone so I went and dumped all my photos on to my laptop and then deleted them from my phone but nothing has changed. And I have gone through all the places my photos could be and everything is gone even my photo editing app for safe measure and still says I have 6 GB of photos and am unable to do anything on my phone because it is "full".

Set it up as new device and restore from the latest backup again:

  • TS4009 My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I have done all I can but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.

    My iCloud storage is full and I need to delete some stuff.  Can anyone tell me what is important to keep and what not?  I'm just not sure what I really should back up each night and what doesn't really matter.  I know my photo's should back up, but other than that, I'm not really sure.
    I have taken some pics off and videos and appt, but it still says I need to delete before I can back up on iCloud.  I'm starting to wonder if its a glitch with my personal phone.  Can anyone help me?
    Thanks!

    Only you can decide what's critical to back up.  One option is to import your photos and videos to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then either delete them from your phone or exclude the camera roll from your backup in settings.
    You might try going to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll), then look at the size of your next backup.  If it doesn't go down significantly, something else is wrong.

  • HT6154 I have deleted all my photos but my usage shows I have 3.5 used on photos. How can I fix this?

    I've deleted all my apps and photos because my phone storage was not enough for an update. I still show to have 3.5 GB used in thr photos & camera, which makes no sense to me since I deleted EVERYTHING! I need to update my phone and I can't figure out why I can't.

    Hi angieaa,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The articles below may help explain what is taking up space on your iPhone. 
    Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

    iOS: "Not enough free space" alert when trying to sync
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1503?viewlocale=en_US
    Orphaned files may remain on your iOS device if it is physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, the Capacity indicator in iTunes may report a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device. To resolve this issue:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device. To do this:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes.
    If the 'Not enough free space' alert appears, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • I have deleted all my photos off iPhone but can still view them on appletv . How do I get them back on my phone?

    I have deleted all my photos off iPhone but can still view them on appletv . How do I get them back on my phone?

    If you have deleted all the photos from your iPhone you can't get them back.  The only place they might exist is if you backed them up to iPhoto if you have a Mac.  If you have iCloud and Photo Steam enabled, then the last 100 photos would be saved in your Photo Stream.

    Yeah it works fine over wifi the problem is when I try to use it over my 3G. It's really stressing me out now.

    Ditto on Clinton's suggestion using OmniDiskSweeper.  It is an excellent tool.
    It may seem elementary, but do empty Trash.  Only then do you gain storage space.
    You may also find a few hints here:

  • HT4847 I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do.

    I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do                             

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

  • I purchased quick time pro, and attempted to download quick time 7, but it says I have quick time x installed.  I deleted quick time x but it still says it is there and will not let me install.

    I purchased quick time pro, and attempted to download quick time 7, but it says I have quick time x installed.  I deleted quick time x but it still says it is there and will not let me install.

    In the optional install items-Quick Time is not an option. I am on Leopard.
    Then you either:
    1) never had QT X installed and could not have deleted it since QT X is only installed on Snow Leopard (OS X v10.6), Lion (OS X v10.7), and Mountain Lion (OS X v10.8) systems or...
    2) you are actually running Snow Leopard (OS X v10.6) and not Leopard (OS X v10.5) as you just stated.
    Please confirm which statment is actually correct.

    Are you using a supported carrier? Do you have a plan that permits text messaging?
    The iPhone uses a 'silent' SMS message exchange with Apple's servers in the UK to activate. If you are not using a supported carrier, and/or your account is not provisioned properly for an iPhone, the activation may not be able to complete.

  • I have delete all my photos

    I have delete all my pictures without save them. Someone can help me?

    If you do not have a backup with the photos intact, then there isn't anything that you can do. If you have a backup, then restore to that backup. Photos in the camera roll are intended to be imported to the computer on a regular basis as those in a digital camera. This is the only method to ensure that you have the photos on the computer.
