Re: [apple-iphone] Me again. iPhoto?

That's smart. I guess I planned on uploading them to phone, leisurely deleting the dumb ones, then uploading to iCloud to save. It's like 15 years of photos. I thought apple would make this easier :/

The images on my main computer total over 35,000 images and almost 195 GB.

I certainly don't put them *all* on any mobile device.

I have created a folder (called "_for_iPad"), and designate that folder in iTunes. Within that folder I have several sub-folders, most of which are checked off, each of which has copies of images from some part of the main collection.

If I don't want some, permanently, on the iPad, I simply delete the *copy* that is synced to the device.
