    Photos that were transferred from your computer via a sync are removed by syncing again.

     

    Start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPad. Select your iPad in the left column of iTunes and select Photos in the right column. Scroll down and deselect the albums you no longer want on your iPad. Then click on Apply. The albums will be removed but will remain on your computer.
