TS1314 need to delete photo album that is duplicated on my iPhone 4

I have 2 photo libraries that contain the same exact pictures, they each contain 2034 pictures in each album. Not sure how I accomplished this, but it hasn't been a problem until recently when my phone has dropped below a gig of free space and I cannot even upgrade to the newest OS version. Please help!!

Import to the computer and choose to delete from iphone /ipod / ipad. Then let the computer sync them from the pictures folder. You duplicates are one copy from camera roll and second that was transferred from the computer.
You can also uncheck to sync photos and hit apply to remove the computer set from the device. That doesn't solve the issue if you want to sync folder again later..

How can i save a photo album that i created on my iPhone 4s on my PC? I have about 10 albums and I want to save them in their own folders on the PC.

how can i save a photo album that i created on my iPhone 4s on my PC? I have about 10 albums and I want to save them in their own folders on the PC. When hooking up the phone to the PC, all i see is the individual photos. I have an iMac and a sony vaio, so i am open to transfer on either machine.
Thanks in advance

Have you had any luck with this? I want to do the same thing and my individual photo albums on my iPhone won't tranfer to my laptop or iPad....only the pictures.

Where is the photo tab on itunes? My device is not listed on the left side of my screen and there is no photos tab on the right of my screen. I want to delete photo albums that were synced through itunes to my ipad 3.

I synced several photo albums to my iPad 3 from my computer through iTunes. Now, I would like to remove them and have discovered that they cannot be removed except through using iTunes. Instructions that I've read say that once the device is connected to and selected from the list in iTunes, select the Photo Tab and then the folder that contains the photos etc. I never get that far because I do not have a Photo Tab to select in iTunes. How do I find this illusive tab so that I can delete these albums that are merely duplications of other pictures and are just occupying space. I need to get rid of them. Can anyone help me find the photo tab. I cannot move past that step until I do. Also, my device is not listed on the left side as stated in the instructions. It's in the bar on the upper right area of my screen and is automatically selected when connected. I am using the current version 11.1 for iTunes and IOS 7 on my iPad 3, if that helps.

I have the same problem on the latest iTunes software and Windows 7. My window is maximzed and I do not see any tab for photos. Seems related to a recent update (IOS7?) as this was there - at least before the very big change to the interface.

How do I view a list of my photos in iTunes? I need to delete some photo albums that were duplicated.

I accidentally created a couple of new photo albums when I backed up or synced my phone. Now I have hundreds of duplicate photos on the phone. One solution I saw online said to delete them using iTunes, but I don't actually see the photos in iTunes. Sometimes I see a multicolored horizontal bar across the bottom of one of the iTunes screens. It says how many photos there are, but won't display them. Please, how can I delete the additional photo albums? Thanks!

Connect the phone to iTunes on your computer. Click on its name. Click on the "Photos" button at the top of the screen.

Deleting photo's that were imported to my iphone from a computer I can no longer access

I have not got my mac that I had used to import a photo album to my iphone. I am now using a different computer, and when I plug phone in to do the usual de-selecting of photo's I wish to change that option is not available. My memory is full and deleting the imported album would free up a large amount of space, how can I do this?

Would this delete my Camera Roll? As I do not want to loose photo's from there.
I would back up my photo's to this computer but this is my work computer which I am leaving as of next week.

How do you delete photo albums that have been syned to your iPhone when you don't know how they got there anyway?

Somehow when I synced my iPhone last week, it added albums of photos from I guess previous syncs and now I have all theses albums on my phone I do not want on my phone. I have tried to figure out how to delete them but can't. And it is taking up a lot of space. How do I get them off my phone and make sure they don't sync on there again?

I didn't have that selected before because it never did it before but for some reason it has become checked. I have unchecked it and, lo and behold, after syncing twice, they are gone from mu phone!!! You totally rock!! thank you so much!

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

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?

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.

How can I erase a photo album that was uploaded from an old computer that I don't have no more? I have other albums in the Iphone that I don't want to delete.

If you sync with the new computer it will erase the current content from the iphone and replace with the selected content of the new computer.
The pics that you have taken with the iphone should be imported regularly to your computer as you would with any digital camera. You can then organize them and sync them back to the iphone if you wish.
If you have had itunes perform a backup on the new computer, you should get the pics taken with the iphone back, but I would import them before trying anything.

I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums

I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums instead of having to manually delete pictures one by one on the Ipad. Is there any way also to add my pictures to the ipad other than through email. i am assuming that i can't just install itunes on the laptop and sync to that. I have been told that i always have to sync to my original synced home computer for that.

Help!!! I have many photo albums that cannot be deleted!!!

Can anyone tell me why does my iPhone 4 has many photo albums that it has created by itself? For example, everytime l took a picture using the phone's camera, the photo always have two copies in two different album. Also, it is impossible for me to delete only one of the two albums that contain the same files inside, l can only delete both of them toghther, which is not what l want. Can somebody help me in this WIERD PROBLEM please???

The iPhone does no such thing. When a photo is captured with your iPhone or saved from a received email, MMS, or website, a single copy is stored in the Camera Roll. If you have HDR enabled for capturing a photo along with keep the normal photo selected as well, two copies of the captured photo will be saved in the Camera Roll - the normal version, and the HDR version. Photos captured by the iPhone are stored on one place - in the Camera Roll. Now with Photo Stream enabled with iOS 5, a copy will be placed in the Photo Stream as well.
All photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process - selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are stored in the iPhone's Photo Library. The folder(s) or album(s) of photos selected to be transferred will be available under Photo Library. The photos in the folder(s) or album(s) below are not duplicated. They contain a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view the photos in a folder or album only by selecting the folder/album, or you can view all photos in all folders/albums transferred from your computer by selecting Photo Library.
This cannot be changed.

How do I delete photo albums from my phone that have synced from my iphoto?

I can't delete a photo album that was synced on iTunes.

I can't delete a photo album that was synced on iTunes. I deselected all photo albums to sync on iTunes and the albums are still on my iPad. I did a search for this issue and a suggestion was loading some other software onto my PC to delete them. I'm not sure I want to do that. The album is stuck on my iPad and iPad Mini.

Are these folders that are no longer on the computer? I see you unchecked the albums, but the sync did not change things. Try this:
In the folder where you have your pictures, create a new folder and leave it empty. Deselect all folders to sync except that one. It should remove everything else from the phone except that one folder, and since it is empty, there should be no photos left except the Camera Roll. Then you can Deselect that empty folder and sync and you should no longer have any photos synced to the device.

How do i delete photo albums from iPhone 5

how do i delete photo albums from iPhone 5

Are you asking about albums created in the "Photos.app" ?
In the Photos app, click edit, then click the red minus icon that appears.
For albums you created on your computer and synced to your device using iTunes:
These albums can only be deleted by syncing again with your computer and deselecting the album when syncing.
All other albums in iPhoto are created automatic as need be (Edited, Flagged, Favorites, Custom (tags), iTunes, Beamed, Photo Box); these albums will be deleted, when the photos inside are no longer present - the edits and tags removed.
