    Typically it does ask - I'm guessing that previously you told it not to ask again - you can revert by deleting the iPhoto preferences and then resetting the ones you have changed by going to the preferences tab under the iPhoto menu

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:

     

    • what version of iPhoto are you using?
    • what system version are you running?
    • what application did you use to transfer the photos from your library to your phone?
    • what type of Mac?
    • do you have Photo Stream enabled on your iPhone and Mac?

    i dont know what version of iphoto, it just came with my computer. my computer is a macbook, its white. and i hooked up my camera a long time ago and imported my photos on my macbook and when i got an iphone i hooked my iphone up to my macbook to charge it and it must have imported the camera photos onto my iphone and when i tried to delete them it wouldnt let me. it only lets me edit them on my phone but not delete them. the photos are in a category called photostream, last imported, and last 12 months on my phone and i didnt set that up that way it did it itself. ive tried everything going into my preferences messing around in there on my iphone and macbook but i have no idea what im doing. i just want these pics off my iphone because i have no more room on my phone to take any pics because its taking so much space. i have deleted the pics off of my iphoto and even deleted them in my trash thinking maybe when i hook my iphone up it will delete them off my phone since i did it on my computer but that didnt work...i need help...
