Q: photostream
I am using photostream and can see all my photos and videos have been uploaded to my Mac Desktop. I would like to delete the My photostream photos from the ipad to make room but am nervous about losing them.
- Can I delete from the ipad and they will still be on my desktop?
- Can i delete them all at once or do I need to do it individually?
Thank you,
Karen
iPad 2, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

No, photos deleted from Photostream will be deleted from the iPhoto photostream.
If you want to permanently keep a photo you must save it from Photostream.
Read this section of the article I cited above:
Copies of Photo Stream photos you have saved to your Camera Roll on an iOS device or imported into events in your iPhoto or Aperture library, and photos you have copied into a folder on your PC that's not part of My Photo Stream, will not be deleted when you delete photos from Photo Stream.
