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.

  • 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.

  • My audio books that were bought through Itunes on my Iphone do not show up on my Itunes account.

    I bought audio books on my iphone, but they do not show up on my itunes account on my computer.  The books I purchased through the computer show up on my itunes account.  My phone is at it's max and I need to remove these books, but do not want to lose them.  Thank you for your assistance.

    This isn't completely coherent so I am not sure what is wrong other than some (al?) of your tracks have broken links.
    If you are browsing through iTunes you are not looking at files you are looking at data entries that point to files, with those locations being incorrect right now. 
    There isn't a file called iTunes media, there is a folder that should be in your iTunes folder called that.
    You mention something about external drives. I presume one is for your Time Machine backup but is the other one used for iTunes?  If so, what do you keep there?
    Here's some background information to help place this in context:

  • How do i delete photos on iphone 4 that were synced in itunes

    Any idea why  they cannot be deleted straight from the iphone?

    Because this is not how it works. Never has been.
    You delete them the same way you put them there.  The sync process.
    Deselect them and sync.
    The iphone is not a storage device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of your comptuer.

  • I want to delete all textures that were previously made

    This Part was created and given colors in CATIA. I now imported it into Photoshop to create some more realistic textures and what not to it. Although the original textures are still there. Not sure how to just start fresh and make all new textures... basically what i want to know is if there is a way to delete these. They can all be edited but it takes time and effort to change all the names and stuff... what is your opinions?

    I tried that, I exported it with no materials... it was just default colors, but when I put it back into Photoshop it now just gives every part the same material.. basically I just want to know if there's a way to give individual parts a new material in Photoshop. Is that possible? New screen shot of what it looks like below.

  • HT1386 I have original songs on my iPad that were synced with iTunes on my PC.  PC crashed and all data was lost.  How can I sync everything from my iPad to my new PC?

    I need to get songs from my iPad to my PC as all songs on my PC were lost when PC crashed.

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For music purchased from other sites or copied from CDs, then have you not got a copy of them on a backup (e.g. an external drive) ? If not then you'll need to find a third-party program that can copy them off the iPad

    Hi QuisB123,
    If you are having an issue with reclaiming free space after deleting photos from your iPhone, use the steps in this article to assist -
    If you get a "Not enough free space" alert on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Specifically -
    Orphaned files might remain on your iOS device if it's physically disconnected while syncing music, podcasts, videos, or photos. This can prevent iTunes from syncing the iOS device on subsequent sync sessions. When this happens, you might see a large amount of "Other" disk usage for the iOS device in the Capacity indicator in iTunes. Try these steps:
    Turn off the music or photo sync option in iTunes for the device.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Turn the music and photo sync options for the device on again.
    Click Apply again to try to sync the device to iTunes. If you see the "Not enough free space" alert, continue to step 5.
    Turn off the automatic syncing functions for the iOS device:
    Select the iOS device from the iTunes window and click the Summary tab.
    Deselect "Automatically sync when this device is connected" and select the "Sync only checked songs and videos" checkbox.
    Click Apply to sync the changes to the device.
    Reduce the amount of data that is being synced to the device and resync the device. For example, if syncing your Music library exceeds the memory capacity of the device, choose "Selected playlists" to transfer rather than "All songs and playlists" under the Music tab in iTunes. If you see the "Not enough free space" alert, continue to step 6.
    Restore using iTunes.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Brett L

    If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox. 
    There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.

    I want to delete photos that I have backed up from my computer, but when I go to select there is a faded trash can icon which I cant access

    If you copied the photos in question to your iPhone by connecting to itunes on your computer you need to do this again. Start itunes on your computer, connect your iPhone, select your iPhone in itunes and select the photos tab. as long as you are connecting with the same computer you should see, in the Photos TSB, a list of the photo albums on your computer. Those that were synced previously have a check mark and are selected. Deselect those you no longer want on the phone and then click on Apply or Sync. The deselected albums will be deleted from your iPhone but they will remain on your computer.
    if you only want to remove a few specific photos from various albums on your iphone, then move those photos out of the albums they are in on your computer. Then sync with iTunes. The photos you removed from the albums on your computer will be deleted from the albums on your iPhone when you click on Apply or Sync.

  • 2 iphonesin the household, I don't want to recieve his mail, he dosen't want to receive mine, but when we sync on Itunes we get both,

    2 iphones in the household,I receive my email, as well as his,  He receives his email, as well as mine, how do we NOT get each otherrs mail?  is it because I only have one itunes account, and when either one us of syns, we are both using the same itunes account?

    It sounds like the problem is that you have your iTunes set up to sync mail accounts.. What you want to do is uncheck that option in iTunes for each phone.. This will remove your email accounts from each of the phones.  You can then re-add your individual account to your own iPhones.. Especially with iCloud now, there is really no need to have anything on the "INFO" tab in iTunes..
    I tried to make as much sense as possible, ask if you don't understand, but basically you need to not have the email addresses sync through iTunes, instead just add them "manually" to the phones themselves..
    Hope this helps..
