Q: How can I delete my photos from my I phone? It does not let me by selecting and trash it. I did back them up but now I need to free my storage on my phone.

I keep Trying to Delete my photos, which I backed them up on my computer, on my Iphone, but my iphone does not let me to delete them. It shows select, but it does not show trash. I have no more storage on my phone and I have to delete my photos.

If you may know how, Please let me know.

 

Thanks

    Where these photos synced to your phone from your computer using iTunes?

    Yes but I turned it off on iTunes, but they are still in my phone?

    I do not wish to loss my photo and data on my phone. I'm worried to chose the wrong option and loss everything.

    Could you please direct me step by step?

    Thanks very much.

    Photos synced to your phone from your computer can only be removed by syncing them off again.  To do this, do the following:

     

    1. Connect your phone to your computer using your usb cable
    2. Open iTunes on your computer
    3. Click on the name of your phone in iTunes
    4. Go to the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings
    5. Uncheck the folders that contain the photos you no longer want on your phone.  To remove them all, uncheck "Sync Photos"
    6. Click Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.

     

    If you only want to remove some of the photos from an album, but not all, remove these photos from the folder by the same name on your computer, then sync your phone.
