IPhoto won't delete the photos from my iphone once I have imported them and indicated to delete the photos from my phone. Am I doing something wrong?

I have imported several hundred photos from my iPhoen 5C into iPhoto library. I selected yes to delete them from my iPhone but the photos remain on the phone. Am i doing something wrong. I don't want to pay apple a fee to get this answered via their support system. This should be straight forward, shouldn't it? Thanks.

Are you asking about iCloud Photo Library (Beta) as described in: iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ - Apple Support ?
In that case you will still see all photos on your iPhone, even after uploading the Photos to the iCloud Photo Library. The photos on your iPhone may be light-weight optimized previews, if you have the setting
Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library > Optimize [device] Storage enabled.
But as long as you have enough free storage, will the your iPhone keep the full resolution versions of the photos you access most frequently.

Is it possible to delete the original photos from my iphone if i have uploaded them into the icloud?

Is it possible to delete the original photos from my iphone if i have uploaded them into the icloud?
Or are they then completely lost?

Yes. iTunes will report that your photos are now being accessed from iCloud Photo Library and will no longer sync photo and videos from your computer. If you have a Mac, you'll want to avoid enabling it until OS X Yosemite in introduced along with it's built-in photo app, which will have to ability to access iCloud Photo Library. (Note: the Photos app may not be introduced concurrently with Yosemite, but is supposed to follow "early next year".)

What version of iPhoto?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

My iPad had a problem and I had to get another one. I am tring to restore all my data from my iCloud account and it has taken 19 hours so far. Am I doing something wrong?

My iPad Air had to be replaced i went to the apple store to get a new one. we started the download at the store and I returned home to finish downloading from my iCloud account and it has taken 19 hours so far. Am I doing something wrong?

Hey Calpalm99,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues restoring an iCloud backup. Don't worry, it doesn't sound like you are doing anything wrong, rather it may be that the connection was interrupted after you left Wi-Fi and returned home. To troubleshoot, you can try restoring your backup once more or see the information in this resource:

TS3899 I have an iPhone 5 and it shows on the Mail Icon that I have over 3,000 emails to read but the number continues to increase even when I have read the email. I thought once you have read an email it drops off the count of "new emails"

I have an iPhone 5 and it shows on the Mail Icon that I have over 3,000 emails to read but the number continues to increase even when I have read the email. I thought once you have read an email it drops off the count of "new emails"

The received emails should show in two locations:
1. In the All Inboxes tab of Mail.
2. The Inbox for each mail account,
If your emails are not showing in these locations try quitting the mail app and then reset your iPhone.
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal.
To reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

How do i delete a video or photo from my iPhone that i have imported from my mac?

i recently downloaded all of my photos and videos onto my macbook. i went to try and download one of the videos onto my hone and successfully figured that out, but when i went to my photos on my iPhone it wasn't on my camera roll but had created its own album and will not allow me to delete the video. Any suggestions?

If you use your computer to put a picture/video on the phone, you will have to use your computer to remove it.

Recently my iPhone 4 has started to delete the content of messages as soon as I open them and also is changing the names of some of my contacts from the name that I give them to their email addresses and all of this is without any input from me help!

HT201317 I have a different set of photos for photo stream on each of my computers, and icloud doesn't seem to do anything? Am I doing something wrong?

Wondering why my icloud seems to do nothing..... I am so tired of using my itunes apple id and my old mobile me id that they keep asking for

I'm working on Twilight Zone right now. I'd like to have a different image for each episode: the broken glasses from "Time Enough at Last", or the gigantic alien from "To Serve Man"; i.e., an image that will reflect the content of THAT episode. Then, for the grid view, where you simply see the show names of all the shows you have (TZ Season 1, Season 2, etc.), I'd like the generalized 'box cover' image to display. I've tried right-clicking on the SHOW in the grid view, and then pasting an image into the "Artwork" box on the Info tab. I've then used the "Set Poster Frame" function (as outlined in the help section you cited in your reply) to choose a specific image from a specific episode. But iTunes won't retain my choices - it either shows the box cover image for all the episodes, or show the 'Poster Frame' from whichever episode I happened to first perform that function on. Thank you for your help.

IPhone: Can I have Exchange email and MobileMe email on the same iPhone?

I just got an iPhone 3G from my company. At work, we use Microsoft Outlook, so that's what I have on my iPhone. At home I have a Mac and I use a .Mac account that has been upgraded to MobileMe. I'd like to be able to access my personal MobileMe email on my iPhone without messing up my Exchange email. Is this possible?

Yes. On my iPhone I currently have my Exchange account via ActiveSync, as well as my MobileMe account. In addition to email, I can also see my MobileMe Home and Work calendars, along with my various Exchange calendar folders, either separately or merged (with color-coded dot to let me know which one came from which account).

How do i delete music from my iPhone once I have iCloud

My phone is now overcapacity, but I am not sure how to get music off it directly, and just get it from the cloud?

Pictures I have taken in the past with my iPhone 5 are now a block and when I click the photo it says loading but never loads. It's like I never took the photos. There's only the blocks with no pictures. I can't click edit or anything

I'm trying to look at my past photos in my camera roll but all that's there is a block and when I try to click on it the photo says "Loading" but nothing ever shows up. I can't click edit or anything. When I plug my phone in to my computer and open the photo folder they're not even there. It's like I never took these photos

I notice that the home page redirects to a secure (HTTPS) address. I wonder whether there is a setting blocking this? What if you go directly to a secure page -- will it load?

Your add-ons list shows AVG, ZoneAlarm, and McAfee products. Could one of them be blocking this site? See whether you can add exceptions or just disable them temporarily and test whether that helps.

Why are my photos going from MB to KB when I import them and sometimes not?

I swear this thing has a mind of its own! I'm back to photos magically becoming degraded to KB when in the original they're MB. HELP!

He shoots in Jpeg, with a Nikon D300s that is 12 megapixels. Here is a screenshot with the crop bar open....Not really sure what other screen shots would help you. This particular file started out as 3 mb and shrunk to 904 kb. Studio files are typically smaller starting out, so that is why the 3 mb.

Why can't I change caregivers or contacts on my GizmoPal without completely resetting the device? Accessing from an iphone 6. Have tried Verizon and LG customer service with no help or resolution.

I have an iphone 6. Recently purchased a gizmo pal for my son. Set up was easy. Works great. However, I want to be able to change caregivers when I leave him with someone so that they can call him and he can call them. The only way to do this is to reset the entire device. Shouldn't be that way ... seems that you should be able to click on the caregiver and change it. Anyone else have this problem or a resolution? Verizon and LG have both been unsuccessful in helping.

Weinmaster5,
I understand your concern and definitely want to help! Have you tried adding the additional caregiver this way http://vz.to/1zE7nMX?
