Need help deleting photos!

I have a "new" ipad (3) and when my son came home from his trip abroad, I decided to try my camera connection kit. I copied all his photos from his cameras memory card to my ipad so we could sit down and look at them all. I left them ont he ipad so I could show them to other family members, but its now been a couple months, and I wanted to delete them all. I couldn't - no option whatsoever. But I was told this was a known limitation with ios 5, and would be fixed in 6 -
So I've now had 6 on my ipad for a couple days, and I still can't figure out how to remove these couple thousand photos. I need to handle it from my ipad - I gave my niece my macbook pro to take to college a couple weeks ago, so I do not have easy access to a computer (until now, I was convinced that my ipad would be all the computer I needed, but right now, it's feeling much more like a toy.)
I would prefer an app that is easily available from the store, but I can't find one. I had not considered jailbreaking my ipad until now IF there is a way to easy handle files once thats done. Failing those, I would be happy to do it from a mac ( but the photos do NOT show up in itunes or iphoto - I looked) and would even consider a PC purchase if it is the most efficient way to manage files on my ipad. I do not want to wipe my ipad completely, as I have been running my 2 businesses on it, and this makes me concerned that even my iCloud backups, many other important files and photos could be incomplete or lost.
Can anyone help? Any ideas or suggestions? I am having a hard time believing Apple made it so easy to copy massive numbers of files onto an ipad, and offer no way to delete them -

Can you manually inside iTunes, under the 'Photo' tab to select none or something similar? So the next time you sync and update your iPod, those photos will be gone??
Cheers

I just updated my iTunes, and I need to delete photos from my iPod 4, and there is a Photo Library that synced to my iPod when i plugged it into my computer, and now it doesnt have the option to delete them off my iPod. How do I get rid of these photos?

I just updated my iTunes, and I need to delete photos from my iPod 4, and there is a Photo Library that synced to my iPod when i plugged it into my computer, and now it doesnt have the option to delete them off my iPod. How do I get rid of these photos? I have read other questions that say to plug the iPod into the computer and like un-sync it, but I downloaded the new iTunes and it doesnt have a photos tab. Does anyone know how to solve my problem? Please and Thank You, Megan!

Just what did you do to the computer?
It sounds like the iPodf is seening the iTunes libary as a new libary.

You should delete your phone number from the topic line.
Spambots search these forums for contact info.
You don't want to get even more telemarketing/scam calls than you probably already get.
It seems like the "Do Not Call" lists are ignored these days.

If the iPad has Activation Lock - that is, it's asking for the previous owner's Apple ID and password to activate the device or to turn off Find My iPhone - then you will need that information. There's no way around it If your father can't remember the password, he'll need to recover it.

If he can't do it via that page, then he'll have to call Apple Support and ask to speak with Account Security.
If that's not the "password" you meant, please post back and clarify.

I need to delete photos from iPad without accessing original computer

I have an iPad 4 and an iPhone 4S. I need to delete photos on my iPad which were sync'd several years ago with an old Mac and I can no longer sync it. How do I make this happen? The photos I need to delete will not let me delete them. So frustrating!

Do you have a Mac you can connect the iPad to? If so then launch Image Capture, connect the iPad and try to delete those photos with IC.

Need help deleting an image field/pictures in worksheet

I am in need of help!!! Added photos in an important .pdf document (a worksheet form that was pre-made) and I added image fields (Top box photo and small bottom box for text). I need to delete some image fields now and it won't let me. I upgraded my Adobe Reader to Acrobat XI Pro trial, still can't. If I try to edit image, it says I need to have Live Cycle designer to edit this form. Someone please help! This is my son's Eagle Scout worksheet and needs to be fixed tonight....please

If the file was created in LiveCycle Designer then it can only be edited
there.
It's not clear in what way you edited it originally.

Need help putting photos on my iPad

Trying to put scanned photos on my iPad. I have tried iTunes but under devices there is no photos to select. Need help.

Photos doesn't appear on the left-hand sidebar under Devices, it appears on the right-hand side in a similar way as for selecting and syncing music, apps etc
If you are on iTunes 11 on your computer then you may want to re-enable the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), which might make it easier to navigate and my instructions may make more sense.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes (if you've enabled the sidebar), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If you haven't enabled the sidebar, then from your library click 'iPad' at the top right of the screen and you should get a series of buttons along the top of the screen, including one for Photos

Need help deleting graphic junk mail

I need help. I cannot delete graphic junk mail into trash. When I try it says unable to move messages. Messages could not be moved to mailbox trash. And the dial keeps spinning. I'm not getting mail cuz this junk is bogging down my iPad & iPhone.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I tried going on my MAC and deleting but they dont show up there?!? I tried rebooting, hard reset, nothin.
Please anyone out there ? I'd be eternally grateful.

If you cannot delete them on the Mac, it will probably be problematic trying to delete them on the iPad as well.
You said you couldn't delete them on the Mac either. If you mean in the Mac mail app, don't delete them there. Delete them on the server in your web browser. Launch Safari - or whatever browser you use on the Mac and then go to your web mail and delete the email there.

Old iPhone3 - need help getting photos off of it

I have an old iPhone3 that has been decommissioned, so it does not have cell service but can access email via wireless network. It has photos that I want to save off of it on to my computer. My computer via USB, does not see it but iTunes does. It has an old iOS on it so it keeps wanting to update the iOS. I tried backing it up but it does not seem to back up anything as it takes less than 5 seconds to back up 14 gig of music and photos. When I tried to use the back up file to transfer the photos, the file was empty.
How do I get my photos?
I don't want to sync and lose all of those photos because I get the warning that it will lose everything. So how do I get my computer to see the photos? The computer does not give me an auto-start option to configure in the settings because it does not SEE the phone as existing.

Are the photos in your camera roll or your photo library? photos in the photo library album where already synced and have to be unsunc they cannot be deleted. photos in your camera roll can be imported. if your using a windows computer connect to the computer and clickimprot pictures and videos/scanner and camera wizard in the autoplay box. if autoplay doesn't pop up u can go to my computer and right click on your device and select improt pictures and videos/scanner and camera wizard.
aperature or iphoto can be used with OSX
also your phone does not need to be recognized by itunes to import pictures. If your computer as well does not recognize your phone that is a different story

Need help uploading photos

I have been unable to upload photos from iphoto. All I get is the event titles! I need help...

Yes, it's possible to use both, but not that way. That command will make duplicates of all your iphoto images, so you don't want to do that.
For now, you have two choices.
1. Set PSE as your external editor in iphoto ( iphoto>preferences>advanced):
and send the photos from iphoto to PSE. If you set the PSE editor preferences>saving files>on first save to save over the existing file, iphoto will remember you latest edits + the original.
If you do this, be sure to choose the right file as your editor. You want this one, in Applications>Adobe Photoshop Elements 11>Support Files:
Or
2. You can export the photos from iphoto, use File>Open in the Editor, edit and save your changes and then reimport them to iphoto as new images. The advantage of this is that you can change the name and format if you want and you can save as many versions as you like. iPhoto only keeps one version--if you edit again, the new version replaces the one it was keeping.

Need help organizing photos

I need help organizing my photos. Over the years, my Mac has collected photos in many different locations, many different folders, both on the internal and an external hard drive. What I need is the best and easiest software for: 1) searching multiple hard drives to find all photo (and video) files; 2) identifying and removing all duplicates; and 3) putting all photo and video files into a single organized folder in a location that I specify. There are lots of products out there, but I can't seem to be able to figure out which one is the best, and which one will do exactly what I need it to do. Any suggestions from the community?

Import the photos into iPhoto and use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - to find and eliminate duplicates

I need help finding photos just downloaded to Lightroom...they only show up in "previous downloads" and not in a folder in my pictures

I need help finding phots just downloaded to lightroom...they only show up in "prevoious downloads" and not in a folder in my pictures. what can I do to correct this?

Also, please be aware that Lightroom is not a file browser like your operating system Finder or Explorer is. If the photos are not in the folder you expected them to be in, it is because you (accidentally) imported them into a different folder.

Need help - Deleted domain and can't re-add - Error domain already exists - Site down

In trying to reconfigure our domain setup, I removed the main domain name in an attempt to re-add it so that it does not point to an external DNS server.
I deleted the domain and now when I try to re-add it, I get the following error:
Domain already exists. Please delete all records associated with this domain before re-adding it.
I have no way to submit a ticket when I go to help and support and our site is now down from the main page. I need help ASAP.
I was able to submit a case when I switched browsers (Chrome apparently does not display the search bar/case submission). The case is
OBNW5020171
The domain I am trying to re-add is surfaid.org

Hi,
I just wanted to followup to see how this case is progressing. This is
very URGENT as our main URL is down and we are in the final stages of a
major campaign where participants have been instructed to go to our website
to sign up which could result in a loss of a lot of donations.
Any priority this can be given would be very much appreciated.
Thank you!
