Can’t delete photos from iPad; delete button will not work

August 14, 2012

Q & A

Many users have reported that the red delete button sometimes does not appear leaving them unable to delete photos from their iPad.

Please note that some photos cannot be deleted from the iPad. Only photos taken with the iPad camera, saved from emails/websites, etc. can be deleted directly from iPad. Photos that were synced with iTunes from a computer must be deleted via syncing. To delete these photos, you need to deselect the unwanted images via iTunes and sync again.

    However! even when the red delete button does appear it doesn’t work. This is on an iPad (latest) that is stand alone, not synched with anything apart from iCloud. So all the pics are via email directly to the iPad. In photos you can select edit (the red delete button appears) then tick the pics you want delete, all good so far but then tap the delete button and nothing happens…please explain? I have restarted the iPad etc. etc!

    That’s pure BS. That crap Apple calls iTunes is pure garbage. I never use it and I still have photos that I can’t delete. I used the other Apple junk the camera connection adapter and the photos will not delete. Hey Apple the worlds greatest salesman is dead. Now fix your crap.

    I had gone thru that nightmare and had a hard time with that bloody iTune … download Syncios and everything will be solved for iPad/iPhone and it’s free …
