Deleting photos from the library using the icloud library is a slow, cumbersome process. I can only delete one at a time, each time taking 20 seconds or more, even with a high speed internet connection.
I just spent some time on the phone with Apple. They confirmed it: There is no way to select a lot of photos in the icloud on a Mac and delete them. You have to do it one by one. Grr. But there is one shorter workaround.

My trouble was I kept on getting notifications to upgrade my iphoto (i.e., pay more) because my icloud was full. All I wanted was "My Photo Stream" option on (in photos preferences on a Mac), so only the latest would appear on my devices. I wanted the remainder of the older photos just on my hard drive. But since they were already up there on icloud, I kept on getting the full message.
2. Then get on your iphone, and open photos. (This would not even work on my ipad either, so iphone's it). Try "albums" first. You should be able to "select," "select" again, then hit the trash sign. If not, look at "Collections," and try it again. It gets rid of groups of photos.
I have an external hard drive I use to store my photos from my phone periodically and backup my computer. I ended up deleting my entire photo library on ICloud using the link below. I plan on turning backup on again after the 30 days:
Hi, I've just discovered quite fast way how to delete multiple photos in few seconds - on my device, iPhone 6 with 10.2.1. update I went to Photos - all - select and hold your finger on first photo and mark it, then move your finger diagonally and you should see all photos are being marked. I hope it works for you bros
I did encounter the same issue while moving thousands of photos from iCloud to other online photo services. The way I resolved this issue is using Photo application on iMac (OS X El Capitan). Here is what I did, hope it will be helpful to anyone who has the same issue:
Great information. Viewing icloud.com on windows computer looking at pictures from new iPhone 7. Looking at pictures in icloud.com using "CTRL" held down and selecting multiple pictures to be removed with mouse selections then clicking trash can. Works quickly. Delighted to find work around from individual deleting pictures, one at a time. Would be handy to have "Select" icon.
Not anymore. APPLE went out of its way to remove the 'select all' option so they can sell more storage. If holding people's photos hostage wasn't bad enough I just had the unpleasant experience of dealing with their incompetent tech support which has taken me from frustrated to completely nonplussed.
I explicitly and repeatedly stated that I was trying to download all of the photos currently in iCloud to my PC. The support tech took me through a bunch of nonsense steps and then had me download the iCloud for PC app which it turns out also DOES NOT allow you to download your existing pics en masse. What a waste of time! The icing on the cake was when this bozo tried to explain to me that backing up my iCloud pics to my computer was not actually called a backup and that I had used the wrong term. Look up the word 'backup' in the context of computing before correcting your customers, you hack!
Also - the photos app on the laptop used to enable manual back up - now when I plug in my phone this is no longer the case. This is VERY disappointing and a manipulative way to get mac users to keep paying for increased online storage.
does not work for me,the shift click option only works in Photos on the Mac. It does not work when used the way you describe, not even in icloud on Mac. Do you have any special configuration option in place?
This no longer works in 2017, at least using the Chrome browser. There seems to have been a changed (Win10 + Chrome) in iCloud where CTRL/SHIFT keys with Left Click or even CTRL+A for Select All (standard windows command keys) doesn't work.
Would be nice to know if someone is working on this, Apple..!? I like the small photo on phone, large photo in cloud option but I have always maintained my own backup. I would like to download all my photos at once and not select one at a time.
What would be really great is if iCloud Control Panel could sync photos onto your PC (Similar to Dropbox and how this functionality works on Mac). I am starting to regret keeping the master photos in the cloud as I just keep paying to increase the size of my iCloud storage, and can't get my photos onto my PC. HELP APPLE!
Same Problem. Just realized that I can not do what I always postponed: Download originals from iCloud Photo Library and delete them there. I, too, keep paying Apple for keeping my photos hostage on their Servers.
Wow. And what happens, if you really want to save them on your hard disk? If you want to download 4000 photos you get exactlty 4000 dialog boxes that ask you for the directory where to save the data. One after another. That keeps you busy ... let me see .. until Christmas 2028.
On your iphone/ipad go to Photos/Sharing and create a shared folder (share with yourself) of as many photos as you want to download. (There may be a max). Then on the PC, download iCloud for Windows and click on "iCloud Photos" in the Windows Explorer window. You will get a list of all folders you have shared - right button the new one you just made for this purpose and select "open folder location" - there will be all the photos you picked for sharing.
If you plug your iphone into your computer, Windows usually has a pop-up window and one of the options is to import photos and videos. It works great for me, and then iCloud does allow bulk delete online.
Safari on a Mac by default saves files in your chosen folder without opening dialog boxes. If you are using Chrome you can uncheck "ask where to save files" before starting your batch download. Maybe you also want to chose a specific new folder just for this download.
I'm trying to download multiple photos from iCloud in bulk and the download keeps failing. I'm on a PC. I've used Chrome, Firefox and Edge and either the download fails or it doesn't even start to download. My internet connection is strong and my laptop is plugged in. I've loggedin and out of iCloud and restarted my computer and it's still not working. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. You've done a great job trying to get this resolved. We're happy to help. If you haven't already, make sure that your PC has enough storage for the photos. Test the issue while connected to a different network.
If the issue persists, tell us if you experience the same behavior when trying to download photos individually. Be sure to include additional error messages and any other troubleshooting steps that you may have tried.
I have the same issue today. Seems Apple is restricting bulk downloads from iCloud. I'm trying to backup all my photos from iCloud. Initially the bulk downloads were aborted at 1.4G every time. I tried maybe 5 times in a row, and now suddenly iCloud won't let me even download 2 images at a time as a zip file. Downloads will just not start at all. Very frustrating as my phone is maxed out on storage from images and videos, and I need to move them from iCloud to another cloud that doesn't have the same braindead engineering, just to get the phone operational again without deleting all pictures and videos.
I have backups of all the photos and have turned off iPhoto Cloud Library on all iOS devices. When I log into the web app - it still shows dozens of albums and I can delete all the photos, then go to deleted items and then purge them, but the ghost albums are still there messing things up.
(I have tickets open with AppleCare after carefully reading the FAQ and it's escalated to engineering, but I was informed that it might be a week or two before it gets seen :-( Perhaps someone has a better idea to clear things out or noticed something I've missed.)
Two options. Turn off icloud backup on your device and wait 30 days. Or find yourself a mac and click on Apple Logo> System Preferences > icloud> Manage... > Photos > Delete. You get the storage back right away and can still reverse it in 30 days. And notice I said mac, for PC icloud software does not have that option at least as of 05/01/2018.
Note: If for some reason you turn the "iCloud Photo Library (Beta)" option back on in iOS, and the old/deleted photos are still there, just delete them off of the device/s first, then repeat the steps I mentioned above.
Instead of clicking each photo one-by-one, you can now hold down the shift key and click photos to select multiple ones at a time. However, there is a caveat. Photo quality is reduced if you download photos individually. But if you download in bulk, photos and videos will remain the original size.
The steps below will delete photos from local storage and iCloud if you have iCloud Photo Library enabled. Having iCloud Photo Library enabled means that all of your devices (and iCloud) will have synced photos. So, if you delete a photo from your iPhone, it will be deleted from iCloud and vice versa. Before you delete photos or videos, back up anything you'd like to keep, because this process will delete your content from all devices where you're signed in with the same Apple ID. 152ee80cbc
