In Iphoto, How can I delete photos on my iphone that have already been imported?

settings/general/usage/photos & cameras then swipe the entries you want gone and tap delete

Would you happen to know how to stop duplicate photos being added to your computer from your iphone

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 for syncing and un-syncing photos.

As far as your statement regarding Windows, if you go to My Computer, iPhone and open the folder, those files displayed there are the photos in the camera roll, not the ones that have been synced from your computer.

You can delete individual photos by unselecting particular folders in the Photos tab in iTunes, or if you want to control it on the computer and then sync, delete the individual photos from the folder you sync to the iPhone, or at least move them from the folder you sync to.

Unfortunately it's not that easy, but still achievable.

1) Select the photos that have been already imported and you want to delete them.

2) Import them with "import selected".

3) After the first question for duplicate answer that you still want to import.

4) After the import process select that you want to remove all just imported photo from the phone. This results in the duplicate photos transferred to iphoto.

5) Go to last imported, select the photos and delete them. This results in the photos moved to the trash can. When you're really sure, you don't need them, you can just empty the trash bin.

Hey guys, this can be done easily via Image Capture in the Utilities folder. You can select images you want to delete, then press the button with the red circle and a line through it. Will clear out whichever images and videos you want on your iPhone. Make sure you're backed up!

I have a similar problem. My daughter's iPhone 4s on OS6. She has some iPhoto folders that came from an old phone of mine - not an iPhone. While that folder with photos shows up on her phone, it doesn't show up in iTunes, iPhoto, or Image Capture. She doesn't want to delete the entire folder which she can do on the phone through settings. She wants to keep some of the photos. Doing it individiually on the phone is painstaking. And since she can't see them when attaching to the computer, she can't move them/sync them to her computer and then delete them. Any help out there

Image Capture is the easiest way to delete all the photos on the Camera Roll at one time. Thanks Drew!

Image capture is the easiest way to delete individual photos. However as I stated my problem - the photos in an iphoto folder nor the iphoto folder on my daughter's phone DON'T show up when hooking it up to the computer through image capture, iPhoto, iTunes.

How can I delete them from her phone individually at the computer if I can't see them?

Hopefully this helps. I had the same problem. The option to delete all photos through Iphoto does not show up until you've imported all of your photos from your phone. I wasn't seeing the delete photos "already imported" until all photos were in Iphoto.

Image Capture is indeed the easiest way I've found. One quick note: The Image Capture app may not be in your untilities folder. Just use Spotlight to search for it and run from there if you can't find it easily.

I found this to be a great, straightforward work-around to an obvious oversight on the part of the iPhoto software.

You're the best, thank you for answering that - I was having the same issue. Genius!

Just wanted to say thanks -- your tip helped me too!

So let's get this right; you can't right click on a photo in Photos and delete them on your iPhone? How lame is that?
