    I can't delete photos in the Photo app

    In using the Photo app, I find I cannot delete the pictures. The delete button doesn't highlight to be clicked on. Is this an operator error or can someone tell me how to delete pics or even a whole ablum?

    I believe you can only ddelete items in the Camera Roll. Albums, and items within albums are controlled through iTunes.

    Anyone please correct me if I am wrong. I'm new to this as well.

    That's correct. Photos imported via iTunes can only be removed via iTunes. Photos imported with the camera connection kit, through email, taken with the iPad 2, etc. can be deleted: tap on the photo in question to make it full sized and a trash can will appear in the upper RH corner.

    I really wish apple had the feature to allow us to delete pictures without a pc. You dont always have access to a PC right away.

    iPad 1 64GB 3G,
    iPhone 4 32GB Black,
    iPod 3rd Gen. 32 GB White.
