This is so tricky and un-Apple-like that people who don't get it (and I am still one of them) end up making their own convoluted and detrimental workarounds like this:
Now I remember why I hated my original iPod-has-to-be-synced-to-one-folder-and-if-you-change-or-remove-that-folder-the-iPod-ends-up-empty-I-hate-sync Shuffle. Would it be so hard to just have (the) iPad mount on the desktop, you open it up, open the photo folder, select all and then trash in the Finder? Or hey, here's an idea.ALSO LET IMAGE CAPTURE MANAGE PHOTOS THAT WERE SYNCED VIA ITUNES? Can't we all just get along? Would that be so hard? Like for me, myself here, now, if you toggle sync books, iTunes will warn me about removing videos. If you know what un-checking the sync app box does when you sync, meaning if it removes apps from (the) iPad let me know. I'm not even going to attempt it because the Producer would likely throw me out of this moving car (which I've started calling Serenity and they don't get the joke) through a closed window and keep my Slurpee suicide which they made me pay for myself. The screwed up thing is that since you have to sync things to manipulate them, if you only want to NOT SYNC your photos (to remove them from (the) iPad) you could un-check other sync options like Apps, but then you run the risk of removing apps from your iPad during the sync! It's absolutely crazy. There seems to be no way to manually manage everything between (the) iPad and iTunes. Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
HOW TO IMPORT PHOTOS TO IMOVIE 10.0.5 WINDOWS
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window. In iTunes, select the device icon in the Devices list on the left.I'm thinking that (the) iPad needs something like 10Gigs scratch room on a hard drive just to perform a sync or something.ītw, fun fact: Apple Mail won't stay launched if the hard drive is full. The laptop here ran out of room for the iPad's 8+Gigs of Apps during a sync leaving no recourse to fix it outside of outright deleting stuff from the iPad itself, then starting again at step 1. How silly and confusing and un-Apple-like is that? Btw, syncing (the Big Sync button you need to hit) will copy over any and all apps you've installed on your iPad so make sure your computer has the space for all this stuff being copied (ie.synced) to it. (Hint: It syncs at this point which means copying everything all over the place again in a long at-least-three-step-process which will include copying over all your Apps AGAIN). Wait a while for iTunes to waste your time while doing some kind of time-consuming whatever-it-is-that-it-takes I-didn't-say-backup needless over-syncing™ to just delete a few photos. Hit Apply in the lower right-hand corner.ĩ. Make sure NONE of them are check-marked.Ĩ. Click on Photos at the top-right of iTunesħ. Click on the iPad listing in the left-hand listĤ. THE ACTUAL SCREWED-UP WAY (I had) TO DO IT:ģ. Make sense?Įssentially they're saying "Don't sync the photos that you already have synced between your computer (iTunes) and the iPad and that will remove them because you don't want them synced." Not Synced is Not on Both. Not syncing = Remove Photos in this case. See what Apple is making you do here to delete photos? They're making you delete them by NOT SYNCING them to the iPad.
Double check to see that the photos are actually removed. Wait a long time while iTunes does all manners of things that have no relevance to just deleting a few photos you synced prior to this.ĥ. You'll see a window asking you to remove photos.Ĥ. Toggle (meaning UNCHECK) the "Sync Photos from" check box. Goto the "Photos" section/button at the top of iTunes after you click on your iPad in the left-hand list.ġ. (Note this may not work for you, like, at all)Ġ. You should see little checkmarks on the ones you've tapped on.ĭeleting photos that you synced to the iPad WITH iTunes: ( and you cannot delete individual photos from (the) iPad if you originally put them there via iTunes unless you connect (the) iPad to the original computer that placed it there which defeats the whole point of a "mobile" device)ĭeleting photos that you acquired on the iPad WITHOUT iTunes:Ģ. Apparently this is one weakness in Apple's highly touted streamlined syncing methods.ĭeleting photos from an iPad is far more complex than it ever should be. Hey look, I didn't even get that far before The Google helpfully helped me out with some help.
