Q: How do you delete many photos at one time on photostream?  Don't want to delete 500 one at a time!

Is there a way to delete many photos at one time from photostream vs right click one at a time?

    The best you can do from your iOS device is to open the my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, then tap the trash icon.

    I was able to delete the photos on my ipad by shutting off the photo stream and then turning it back on.

    Settings / iCloud / Photos / My Photo Stream - Off.

     

    Hope this helps, Hey APPLE, Might be nice to add a select all feature, sure do miss Steve J's attention to making the interface an intuitive experience.

    FYI, that does not delete photo stream photos from the last 30 days, which will stream back to your device when you turn photo stream back on.
