In iOS 8 will I be able to delete individual photos from an iMessage conversation?

Right now Messages take up over 3 GB of space on my phone. With the new iOS 8 update, I discovered that it is because it does save every photo or video you send as part of a conversation, even ones that were previously unavailable by scrolling back as far as possible. I want to know if there is going to be the ability to delete photos individually to free up space? I don't want to have to delete the entire conversation to free up space.

You can delete a photo from a message conversation by tapping and holding the photo, then tap More... above the photo, confirm that the photo has a check to the left of it, then tap the trash icon. You can also scroll through the conversation and tap multiple items to select them before tapping the trash icon.

I have an iPhone 3gs, operating on iOS 6. For some reason, I'm unable to custom delete individual photos from my photo library....

I have an iPhone 3gs, operating on iOS 6. For some reason, I'm unable to custom delete individual photos from my photo library. When I select the Edit button to do so, I'm only given the 2 options of "Share" and "Add To". My Camera Roll does everything the way I wish my Photo Library would. Can anyone help?

Only photos in the Camera Roll can be deleted. The rest of the photos got there by synching to your computer. You get them off the same way.

Stolen Phone: Will I be able to get my photos from iCloud to my replacement?

My phone was stolen last night. I have already ordered a replacement. When it arrives, will I be able to access my photos (specifically ones taken last night) in the photo stream/iCloud?
FYI - please respond in a "for dummies" way, because I'm hardly an "iphone veteran."

Specifically, no. Unless you had already transferred the Camera Roll those pictures are not recoverable. Furthermore, unless you have a current backup on iTunes you won't be able to recover anything more recent than the last backup. If your other photos are already in iPhoto, then they can be restored to a new device.

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.

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

Which devise should you delete your photos from first? iPhone or iPad?

Because of iCloud, if I delete my photos on one device they still stay on the other then end back up on my phone--you would think it would do the reverse.
On my macbook pro, 10.10.1, I do not use iPhoto, I just keep my pictures in a separate file. I have duplicated photos everywhere...help!

Remember that you should not store photos on iCloud. It's time and capacity limited. It holds up to 1,000 photos for no more than 30 days. So, import no. 1001 and the first one is dumped. Leave them untouched and they will be deleted from iCloud after 30 days.
You can't delete individual photos from iCloud (only reset the whole thing) so trashing from a device will not trash from iCloud.

HT4914 I would like to know if after subscribing to ITunes Match I will be able to delete my library from my PC and, by these means, liberating the disk space currently used by my music

I would like to know if after subscribing to ITunes Match I will be able to delete my library from my PC and, by these means, liberating the disk space currently used by my music

Your purchased music is availble for download again at no cost. If you have iTunes match service, you can download your matched music.

If I move my iTunes content such as movies to an external hard drive will I be able to delete the content off my iTunes on my computer?

I have a macbook air and I am having an issue with space.
When I rent a movie most times I rather just buy it because its sometimes only a few extra dollors more but im having the space issue.
If I transfer my itunes files to an external hard drive will I be able to delete the movies off my computer after so I dont have a 100% full hard drive, and if I delete the files off my itunes on my computer will I come to a problem when I plug in the external hard drive and go to watch them?
please help!!
thank you so much!

If you have a router with a USB port (I have the AirPort Extreme with a USB port, for example) you can hook up just about any hard drive to it and have it recognized on the network. But first I would consider what you want your backup scheme(s) to actually do... personally, I use three backup schemes - I've two Time Machine drives to backup my internal drive, I've three clones of my internal drive, I've one clone of my Thunderbolt 2TB 'working' drive, and I regularly backup to dual-layer DVDs (not full backups, just archived material).
So you need to use one or more backup schemes - at least two for your internal drives (Time Machine and a clone) and one for archival purposes. A Time Capsule would be perfect as a wireless Time Machine backup and you can purchase a small (well, at least the size of your internal drive) external drive to make a clone copy. Time Machine offers incremental backups (a plus when you want to go 'back in time' - at least to a time within the space limitations of your Time Capsule) while a clone gives you a 'snapshot' of your internal drive from the last time you cloned. Both have their advantages, which is why I suggest using both. For purely archival purposes, however, I use DVD - I've been doing this for over a decade now and haven't had one fail yet.
So those are your basic options - a Time Capsule would work great for wireless Time Machine backups, but i would also keep a clone and use DVDs for archiving data.
Good luck,
Clinton

You cannot backup photos to iCloud.
You can enable Photo Stream (in Settings > iCloud) but only for 30 days and only a max of 1000 photos.
Then what does this mean? It was copied from the kb article that I posted above.
Reducing the size of your Camera Roll backup
If you take lots of photos and videos with your iOS device, you may notice your Camera Roll takes up most of your iCloud Storage backup. To check the size of the Camera Roll backup on your device:
On your Home Screen, tap Settings.
Tap iCloud.
Tap Storage & Backup.
Tap Manage Storage.
In the Backups section, tap your device.
In the Backup Options section, the backup size is displayed under Camera Roll.
To reduce the size of your Camera Roll backup, save your photos and videos locally to your computer with iTunes, and then manually back up your iOS device. If you want to keep your photos and videos on your iOS device, you can turn off Camera Roll in Backup (see the "Deleting backups and turning off Backup for your Device" section above) orpurchase additional storage.

I have enabled iCloud on my iPhone. In case i delete the photos from my phone would they still be on my iCloud account or will it sync and delete it on iCloud as well?

Hello lonestar17,
Thank you for the question. It sounds like you are curious about how iCloud stores your photos. Photo Stream stores your photos temporarily so that you can have time to sync them to your computer, but the photos will expire after 30 days:
Does using My Photo Stream substitute for using iCloud Backup or iTunes to back up the photos in my Camera Roll ?
No. Photos in My Photo Stream are saved on the iCloud server for 30 days. To save or back up these photos, you must copy them from My Photo Stream to your Camera Roll on your iOS device. You can then back up your Camera Roll using iCloud or iTunes.
How long are My Photo Stream photos stored in iCloud?
The photos you upload to My Photo Stream are stored in iCloud for 30 days to give your devices plenty of time to connect and download them.
How many photos are stored in My Photo Stream on my devices and computers?
iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .

If I reinstall my FCE 3.5 from the original discs, will I be able to get the updates from Apple?

System has begun crashing (dropping-windowshade, message to shut down computer) during attempted capture or render. Hardware has been checked out and is OK. Other OS functions seem to be working. I have a bootable clone from the most recent period of good function, and also my original install disc for FCE.
If I need to try reinstalling FCE, are the updates still available from Apple?
If I can't restore FCE 3.5, is there anything I can use with my OS 4.11 MBP that will be able to access my FCE 3.5 project files? My 3+TB of underwater clips, stored on external drives as QT movies?
Any guidance appreciated. This forum helped me out a lot when I first started - didn't expect the end to come so soon & hope there's a feasible workaround!
Thanks,
Sharron S.

If I reinstall my FCE 3.5 from the original discs, will I be able to get the updates from Apple?
Yes, via Software Update
Here is an article on how to Uninstall FCE HD You could also use FCS Remover (note there are different versions depending on what version of OS X you have - be sure to select the correct version)
If I can't restore FCE 3.5, is there anything I can use with my OS 4.11 MBP that will be able to access my FCE 3.5 project files?
- FCE project files - only usable with FCE or FCP. Not iMovie or FCP-X
- All your clips, however, can be used with almost anything including iMovie, FCP, FCP-X, QuickTime, etc.

My new iMac is not shipping with Lion installed. Will I be able to do a Migration from my PC to my iMac without installing Lion first?

My new iMac is not shipping with Lion installed. Will I be able to do a Migration from my PC to my new iMac? I only want to transfer photos and my music, currently on my PC (and on my iPod Touch & iPad).
Can anyone give me a list of steps to follow or let me know if Migration Assistant is available prior to Lion for PC to Mac?
Thank you so so so much!
-SweetDee

SweetDee,
I'd be VERY surprised if your machine was not shipping with Lion installed. However even if it doesn't when you initally install Lion it will launch into Setup Assistant, if you follow the prompts it will ask if you are migrating from another machine. You can use Pondini's Lion Setup Assistant tips for help, look for the section(s) on MS Windows migration. Also I would strongly recommend bookmarking and studying the following sites:
Switch 101
Mac 101
Find Out How Video tutorials
In closing remember you have 90 days of free telephone support with AppleCare. If you run into trouble they will be happy to assist or if you have an Apple Store in your area you can book an appointment with a Genius and they can usually help you out.

Was it backed up ? If it was - restore from backup (of course, everything else will be restored too).
If it wasn't - you have no way to get it.

How does one delete specific photos from ipod touch 2nd gen (with ios 4.2.1)?

I would like to delete some photos from my ipod touch 2g, ios 4.2.1, but I can't just sync it to my (new) computer because then all of them would get deleted because I don't have the photos that I have on my ipod on my new computer. Help!?
Thanks

- You can email the ones you want to retain and the restore the the iPod on the the new computer
- You can use a third-party like PhoneView or TouchCopy (both paid) and maybe the free
iFunBox for Mac | File Manager, Browser, Explorer, Transferer for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
tio copy them to the computer.
