I am trying to delete all the photos from my Iphone 6. I have had no luck with any of the methods I have tried, including syncing the phone to the Mac excluding photos.

    Do you have iCloud Photo Library enabled? If so the pictures may be syncing back. If not first try resetting the Photos App. Close Photos completely from the app switcher window by double clicking the Home button and swiping up the Photos preview pane until it disappears from the screen. Then do a forced restart. Hold down the Home and Wake/Sleep buttons at the same time for about 15-20 seconds until the Apple logo appears.


    Then open Photos, select Albums, Select Camera Roll, then click on Select and run your finger through all the pictures you want to delete.


    If the above does not help please detail what you have tried already. As you noted, pictures synced from the computer can only be deleted by "unsyncing" them again.
