How can I delete photos from photos on my iPad. They were copied when I did a sync with the computer. I'm talking about 1650 photos and I don't want all of them.

Are you talking about photos in the Photostream or just regulars on your iPad? – Michiel Jan 23 '12 at 8:44
Photos synced to an iDevice from a computer do not enter the Photostream, only photos taken on the device and saved to the camera roll will automatically push to the cloud. @Michiel – jbharper2 Jan 23 '12 at 11:36
He's asking to delete photos of his iPad, no? – Michiel Jan 23 '12 at 11:53

Sync again with the computer, this time when it is plugged in, click on the iPad, and navigate to syncing options, and Photos, uncheck, Sync Photos. Then sync

the downloaded pictures got deleted..all of them. I unchecked the folder on the pc before I did the sync. How can I transfer selected photos from my pc to my iPad? Do i create a folder with those pictures on the pc , select it, then sync? – Shauket Jan 24 '12 at 2:07
@Shauket That will work. – timothymh Jan 24 '12 at 4:42
