I want to delete 1000 + photos from my iPhone

I have over 1000 pictures on my iPhone. They were copied on my iMac, but not deleted from the phone.

How can I select all of the inventory for deletion, other than selecting them individually?

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 8.1.2

Thank you.

If you are using the latest version of iOS, you can rub your finger on a lot of select several at once. It would still take time.

You can also find a friend with a PC, open the file Explorer, select the phone and delete all this under the DCIM folder. This can be done in the Mac Finder. Photos of Mac, the pictures may not appear after that that they were imported.

  • How do you delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on a mac

    I want to delete some photos from my iPhone 6 but keep them on my MacBook - how can I do this?

    Hey Jill,.

    This should be possible as long as you do not use icloud photo library.

    With iCloud, photo library, your devices are giving you access to your library, which is stored directly in iCloud. Therefore, when you delete a photo of iCloud photo library on any device, it removes from everywhere.

    When you turn off the iCloud photo library, each device is its own independent photo library. You must manually import pictures from your phone to your MacBook, then you could remove your phone at will.

    If you wish to continue using iCloud photo library, but also want to save space on your phone, consider turning on Optimize iPhone storage in the section Photos to your phone settings iCloud!

You can reduce the space required on the phone by activating the settings > iCloud > Photos > optimize iPhone storage. You can suggest that Apple offers more options via: http://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

    When you back up your phone does not affect what is happening in the pictures. Backups are made to keep a snapshot of your device available in case you need to restore this backup device.

    Use iCloud photo library? Is that what you mean? If you are, what you remove from the appliance will remove your library of Photos that are stored in iCloud.

    If you don't use icloud photo library, you need to import your photos on your computer before remove you any of them (after checked the import was successful): PHOTO IOS of IMPORT FOR MAC/PC

    Hello Sarika

    Thanks for your help.

    At least you put me on the right track and I persevered and found the file relevant agprefs of Lightroom web help and followed the instructions to change manually.

    I have changed two files with the same name but stored in different locations.

    Everything works fine now.

    Thank you once again.

  • Remove photos from my iPhone

    The photos on my computer are in Photos for Mac.  I use albums and keywords to sort and find, and it works fine.  Problem is I want to keep all my photos in Photos for Mac, but I don't want them on my iPhone.  If I try to remove a photo from the iPhone, I get a message saying it disappears all my devices.  If I try to 'hide', he always puts on my phone AND the album hidden in the flow of "all photos".  It only hides the picture of the view of Collections.  (Not sure what that use the 'hide' a photo has).

    Thus, appreciate any help with how to keep the photos in pictures for Mac on my computer, but be able to select some to not be on my iPhone.  Hoping that this can be done without turning off the picture share all together.

    Looks like you are using iCLoud photo library - if you are then you can't delete photos from a device there - the only reason ICPL exists is to synchronize all devices by keeping identical - all the changes (additions, deletions, or modifications) on any device are made on all devices - for devices with limited storage you use optimized photos on those deices

    If you do not want that all devices to have identical libraries, do not use use ICPL - manual synchronization with iTunes sync for selective synchronization
