Hello!
"Delete" button disappeared from my Image Capture app that I use to import new photos from my iPhone. See the attach.
PS This problem referes only to my specific iPhone only - I connected another iPhone instead of my own - and voila! - button appeared again, but not for my own device!
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10), 2012
It actually wasn't enough for me to simply do this. If your device is still connected via USB after you disable iCloud Photo Library (Beta), quit Image Capture and then disconnect the USB cable. Reconnect the cable and launch Image Capture again, and the "Delete after import" option should return. You don't have to reboot the iOS device, you just need to reestablish the trust relationship between the iOS device and the computer.
A hard reset on my iPhone did the trick along with disabling iCloud.The Photos App is an absolute crap shoot. Who wants to bet money after reenabling the Photo Library it will soon tell me there's 500 brand new photos to import.
To anyone read this and want a SOLUTION regarding the delete button not appearing... I am using OS X Yosemite and just discovered you will need to do this in this exact order.
Select Settings then iCloud and proceed to Photos. TURN OFF EVERYTHING IN THE PHOTO SECTION. Exit out and restart Image Capture on the Mac. The delete button should now be there. I hope this helps!!!
This DOES NOT WORK.
There seems to be no way to delete photos on the phone using Image Capture. This of course makes any photo-workflow very difficult.
Thanks Apple. iOS 8 is the worst yet.
To delete you must not hit just the "delete" key it must be "command+Delete". hope that solves your problem.
-crazy
Thanks Allison for the fix . . .not being able to clear some junk photos on my iPhone was driving me %#@&-en nuts!
Thank you so much - this has been driving me nuts.
So then afterwards, just reset the iCloudPhotoLibrary button.
any other suggestions?
THIS IS IT !!! AFTER 1 MONTH TRYING TO SIMPLY ERASE PHOTOS I GOT BACK THAT BUTTON BACK , THANKS !! IF THE SIMPLEST THING LIKE THAT TAKES 30 DAYS TO ACCOMPLISHED... WHAT A SHAME
yes it work's just turn off everything about photos in iCloud
cheers
Hello! Could you please provide a screenshot?
From my experience, you have to wait until all image thumbnails are loaded into the selection grid, then the Delete after Import appears.
Turn off iCloud Photo Stream on the device.
THIS is very helpful! Thank you very much!!
Agree with you WestVanPete. The answer given above DOES NOT WORK.
I turned off iCloud Photo Stream and the "Delete" button is still missing.
No "Delete" button in "Image Capture" app.
