Please tell me I can delete entire photo albums

   Do I have to check 3,000 photos in an album one by one to delete them ?   GOD I hope not.

If they were synced from your computer then you can only delete them by moving/removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.
If they were taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc then they can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view. If you want to delete them all then if you use a PC you can connect to that and you should be able to delete them via windows explorer. If you use a Mac then I think that you can delete via iPhoto or Aperture after importing (not sure if there is a way to delete them on a Mac without going through the import process).

  • Is it possible to delete entire photo albums in iOS

    iphone 5s / iOS8.1 - iMac / Yosemite
    When i transfer important pictures from iPhone to Aperture I like to keep them on my phone until I know my Mac is backed up. Once backed up I want them off my phone.  However, as far as I can see, photos in iOS camera roll can only be deleted individually and right now I have about 6 albums with 800 pictures.. I don't want to delete them individually I want to delete the whole lot - am I missing something? Surely there should be a simple way to select and delete an album?
    By the way, i am not talking about sync'd pictures here so it's not a case of deselecting sync'd albums in iTunes.
    any ideas?

    I haven't done it in a while but you may want to connect the phone to your Mac and open Image Capture on the Mac. I don't remember that it allows deleting by folder but if not it still would be faster than doing it one by one on the phone. The delete icon is at the lower left (red circle with line through it).

  • I have had nothing but problems after downloading Lion and turning on ICloud. Can anyone tell if I can delete photos from Photostream and if not why not! it is infuriating

    PhotoStream is purely a conduit for transferring pictures added to or taken on one device onto all the others seamlessly. Photos are held there only for 30 days. There is no way of accessing, viewing or deleting individual photos; you can reset the entire Photostream, erasing everything.

  • I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    The delete key does a backward delete because it is the natural way to delete while typing. May not be to you and the millions of youngsters who grew up with windows computers. When you are typing and want to delete that which you just typed you are already at the end and you delete back to where you want to re-type. When you go back to a document and want to delete a selection, you have to go to the end of the selection instead of the beginning. it's just the way its always been done on macs. it takes some getting use to.
    If you select text to be deleted with your mouse then the delete key deletes the selected text. same for either delete key method.
    It is not convenient when you tab to fields in a form. That why fn-delete does a forward delete.
    Macs have a couple of keyboards. The small "wireless keyboard" only has the (backward) delete (fn-delete forward). The larger "Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad" has both a Delete (backwards) key beside the = abd it has the "delete >" key in the groups with fn, home, end, Pg up and Pg dn. This keyboard is best for users who have switched from windows or are familiar with the windows forward delete.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can recover any photos in photostream, by logging into your account on your computer. Any photos that are in the camera roll and not in photostream may be in your backup if yo kept one. When you replace your phone, restore it using this back up.

  • How do I delete an entire photo album from iPhone 6

    What is the easiest way to delete an entire photo album from iPhone 6

    Depends on the album and how it got there.
    If it is an album that you sync'd to the device, you would remove it the same way - by hooking up the device to sync, de-selecting the album in the Photos profile screen, and then syncing the device
    If it is an album you created, you would need to manually delete the album itself by clicking on Edit from the main display and then clicking on the minus sign to delete the album. This does not delete the photos in the album, however. If you want the photos deleted, you have to select them and then delete them manually.
    Camera Roll photos will ask if you want to delete them when you import the Camera Roll to a computer.
    Photo Stream photos are either deleted manually, or you can turn off Photo Stream altogether to remove Photo Stream from your device.

    hello rodale, what you're seeing is probably a side effect of firefox not being able to save certain preferences into its profile folder.
    go to ''firefox > help > troubleshooting information'', click on ''profile folder/show folder'' and close all firefox windows afterwards. a windows explorer window should open up - in there delete the file named '''user.js'''.
    in case this didn't solve the issue yet please also refer to [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].

  • Accidentally deleted my photo album - how can I get it back?

    I accidentally deleted my photo album in iPhoto. Now it's gone.
    I have a backup on an external HD.
    But when I start time machine and go back to the last backup, I can only find all the photos, but not the albums. Can please anyone help? Thanks

    Since the albums are just pointers to the images and some extra information, they don't really exist separately, but are stored in the database.
    The best plan is to restore the whole library from the backup and re-import any added pictures.
    (Congratulations on having a backup!)
    You could use time machine to create a *duplicate* library, remove everything from the duplicate except the photo book and the images it contains and then use the third party iPhoto Library Manage go merge the duplicate back with the original, but that sounds like too much work for me. 8^)

  • Could someone please tell me how to delete all my many emails at once on my iPad 2? Thank you

    Could someone please tell me hoe to delete all my many emails on iPad 2 all at once? Thank you

    You can't delete them all at once on the iPad. You have to select them one at a time. Once the emails are in the trash, you can Delete All from there.

  • How can i delete a photo album that has been synced from another computer

    I am trying to delete a photo album that I do not need anymore from an iPad 4. But the album has been synced from a computer that I don't have access to anymore. Is there anyway around this ?

    Photos that were synced from a computer can only be deleted by connecting to a computer's iTunes and changing the sync selection on the device's Photos tab.
    Is that the only album that was synced from that computer (and you now sync the iPad to a different computer ?), or do you have other albums from it that you want to keep on the iPad ? If you want to keep one or more albums on it then they will need to be on the computer that you sync to so that they can be selected on the Photos tab and re-copied to the iPad from that computer. If you want to remove all synced photos then try selecting and syncing just an empty folder
