Iphone4 delete photos after syncing to itunes

I have an iphone 4 w/out ios update. I have synced photos to itunes. itunes shows the amount of photos but I do not know how to access them. Also, all the photos I have synced are still on phone & I cannot delete from phone. It doesn't give me option to delete album or individual photo. Help!

You cannot sync photos TO iTunes. iTunes photo sync is used to transfer photos from a computer to the phone. It does not transfer photos the other direction.
Following are instructions on how to transfer photos taken on the phone to a computer: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
Regarding deleting photos that were synced to the phone, the following quote is from iTunes: Syncing photos
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.

Hi LoboCatholic,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are desscribing. I am not certain that this will address your specific issue, but if you are having photo organization issues in iOS 8 on your new iPhone 6, you may find the following article helpful:

Hello, suffianr78.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you have the sync photos preference selected in iTunes and photos are still not syncing, I would recommend processing the steps in the article below.

What is the procedure for verifying that my photos, after syncing up my iPad and my iMac, actually are in iTunes?

iTunes manages your photos between the iPad and iPhoto on the iMac. If you have things set up correctly, then the photos will go to iPhoto for safe keeping and later use.

After syncing my itunes from my computer to my iphone4, the download icon at the top of my phone will not stop. It appears at all times as though I am in the middle of a download, but it is not connected to anything.

This is from a 4S with iOS 7 running iTunes Match:
You won't see Edit if it's a Genius playlist (like the one in the image above).

Songs purchased on iPhone through iTunes Store will not show up on iPhone after syncing with iTunes

I recently purchased iTunes Match (about a month ago). Since purchasing Match, any songs that I have bought on my iPhone 4S (32GB, Sprint) through the iTunes Store app will not sync back to my iPhone after syncing with iTunes on my computer. I have iOS 7.1.2 and iTunes 11.3.0.54. The only way I can get them to show back up in my iPhone music library so I can play them is by re-downloading the songs through the iTunes Store app. Which is super annoying because now it is about 10 songs that keep doing this, and they are in multiple playlists. Is anyone else having this problem and have you found any fixes? Really regretting purchasing the iTunes Match (which is not enabled on my iPhone, just on my computer).

How to create custom ringtones ...
1. Open iTunes.
2. Find the song that you want to make into a ringtone.
3. Listen to the song and find the part of it you want to use. The chorus may be a good place to start.
4. Write down the start and stop times of the clip.
5. Right-click the song and select "Get Info."
6. Click the "Options" tab.
7. Type in the start time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Start Time" in the minutes:seconds (i.e., 2:01) format.
8. Type in the end time of your ringtone in the text box next to "Stop Time." Make sure the ringtone is no more than 30 seconds long.
9. Click "OK."
10. Right-click your song again and select "Convert Selection to AAC." Wait for iTunes to convert your song. It will create a duplicate version.
11. Right-click the ringtone and select "Delete."
12. Click on the "Keep Files" button.
13. Find the file. It's usually in your User folder under "Music > iTunes > iTunes Music" and under the band's name. It will have an extension of m4a.
14. Replace the m4a extension of your ringtone with m4r. You can either double-click slowly to rename your file, or right-click and select "Get Info" on a Mac or "Rename" on a Windows PC.
15. Click "Use .m4r" or the PC equivalent when the system warns you that the change may affect the use of your file.
16. Double-click the ringtone file. ITunes will automatically add it to your ringtones folder in your iTunes Music Library.
17. Connect your iPhone and sync your ringtones.
Oh, also to change a file extension. (not sure on Mac), but in Windows you need to go to "control panel" select "folder options". You need to uncheck the box "hide file extension for known file types". This will allow you to view and change the files extensions.
Hope this is useful ...

How do I delete synced photos from my IPad 2? My computer is no longer holding a charge and I would like to delete photos I synced without my computer

I hope that it is not true that I cannot delete photos thaI synced to my iPad. I cannot use my computer because it is not charging. How do I remove synced photos from my iPad without the use of my ITunes?

This is a problem. Normally you do need to connect to the computer you've synced ith previously to delete albums that were copied from that computer.
In the case where the old computer fails, crashes or is sold or discarded, you need to get all of your stuff off the iPad and onto a new computer. Visit Apple support to learn how to do this. Once you establish a new tunes library on a different computer you can sync and delete the photo albums you no longer want.
Another option is to restore your iPad to its original state. That will delete everything including photos, non default apps, music, videos, etc.
Once reset and erased you can download all purchased apps again.

After syncing with iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Support uses 83-99% of CPU

After syncing with iTunes 10.4.0.80, everything becomes very slow on my XP Home PC with 2G RAM. Apple Mobile Device is reported as using 83-99% of the CPU cycles. Shutting down and restarting Apple Mobile Device solves the problem and reduces CPU cycles to 0%. (I have written a small batch program to stop and restart the Apple Mobile Device to achieve this.) Does anyone have any thoughts about why the Apple Mobile Device process won't release when the sync is finished?

i deleted itunes and mobile support and now when i reinstall itunes the mobile support does not come back with it as when it tries to install that it just says rolling back after it is almost done
The AMDS install roll-back (on XP) can be caused by old driver componentry "stuck" in the bowels of your OS. If that's what is going on, we can get past this ... but I'm afraid it's a bit of a performance.
First, go into "My Computer". Go "Tools > Folder Options". Go to the view tab.
Make sure "Show hidden files and folders" is selected.
Make sure "Hide extensions for known filetypes" is unchecked.
Make sure "Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)" is unchecked.
Click OK.
Now in "My Computer", open "Local Disk C:" or whichever drive your Operating System is installed on.
Open the "Windows" folder.
Open the "system32" folder.
Open the "DRVSTORE" folder.
In there look to see if you have either of the following two folders:
netaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
usbaapl_(LongStringOfNumbers)
If you find either of them, drag them out onto the desktop. (Don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now go back into the "system32" directory.
Open the "Drivers" directory.
Look for either of the following two files:
netaapl.sys
usbaapl.sys
If you see either of them in there, drag them out onto the desktop. (Again, don't touch any other files or folders you see in there.)
Now restart the PC. Uninstall iTunes again, and then try reinstalling it again. Does Apple Mobile Device Support install this time?

I have updated my iPad 2 to 7.0.2. After syncing to iTunes I noticed that in Safari on my MacBook Pro one of the Bookmark tabs has been emptied. Also, on the iPad I am getting a dark keyboard that stays on the screen no matter what is going on behind it

Lots of strange things happening after installing 7.0.2. Mail and Safari routinely quit on me. Keyboard appears for no reason and doesn't go away. After syncing to iTunes on my MacBook Pro one of the bookmark tabs got emptied out. Is there no one cracking the whip anymore at Apple?

Using iCloud to sync bookmarks between your Mac and iPad?
If so, on the iPad tap Settings > iCloud. Swich Safari off then back on.
On your Mac, open System Preferences > iCloud
Deselect the box next to Safari then reselect it.
Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync your bookmarks.
If you are using iCloud, don't sync Safari bookmarks on iTunes. That could be why the bookmark tabs got emptied out.

Music files missing after sync with iTunes

All of my devices are updated to the last version.
I created playlists to manage syncing music from iTunes to iPhone.
Sometimes my music files would be missing on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.1 after sync with iTunes 12.0.1.26.
When music missing, they look OK in iOS playlists, but will appear a "waiting for copy” symbol on the right side then jump to next song one by one when I try to play.
It's really weird because it happens randomly, I totally have no idea when it will happen again, more even far from why ...
Zen style APPLE !!

It sometimes takes awhile for the info to download from itunes.
try this:
Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
