June 14, 201610 yr Have a few folders I can't delete ( recommendations welcomed ), but it says I have 1.1 GB of pics when there is almost zero on my phone and no streamingGo figure ! Edited June 14, 201610 yr by skippybangkok
June 15, 201610 yr Have you checked in Photo's under Albums, Recently Deleted if that is empty ? If so, then Connect the iPhone / iPad to your computer Click (in your) Computer on This Computer Click on the iPhone / iPad Click on internal storage Click on DCIM Check the 1xxApple directories If there aren't any Pictures in those Directories, then you have Synced your iPhone / iPad with iTunes on a Computer and those Pictures you can only remove by reconnecting your iPhone / iPad to iTunes and remove them from there Stupid I know, but that is the way it is (unfortunately) https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204120 Edited June 15, 201610 yr by MJCM
June 15, 201610 yr Author Thanks - deleted the folders finally Seems Apple can't agree how much space I have left iPhone says 5.6 GB left, Mac says 8+ Edited June 15, 201610 yr by skippybangkok
June 15, 201610 yr Glad you got it solved, may I ask how ? Yeah my iPhone also says a different amount free then iTunes on PC. One of those small and quirky bugs
June 16, 201610 yr Author Glad you got it solved, may I ask how ? Yeah my iPhone also says a different amount free then iTunes on PC. One of those small and quirky bugs very shy now...... errr... there is an edit button up top.... clicked it, and it then allowed me to delete. Seems Apple UX designers overlooked this, as normal delete these days is swipe to the left. ( edit and delete is i think old hat now ) even though no pics in photo's - it says i have 1.1 GB of photos... real confusing. Thanks !
