pictures not deleting

Ericejs · 11-30-2010, 08:10 PM

Ok so I go into gallery and delete a pic, but once I restart the pic shows back in the Gallery? It goes away once I delete it but a reboot makes it come back....does this happen to anyone else?

Yes, the same thing happens for me. Delete pic. Turn off. Turn on. Pic re-appears.

Exactly....very odd...must be a glitch that they will fix with an update

I'm actually surprised there's a delete option. I didn't notice it until you mentioned it. You can't delete anything else.

same thing is happening with me. I accidently made a screenshot and I can't delete it lol

On the How to delete files? the following was suggested for deleting files from the PC. Apparently just the delete key is not sufficient.

Use shift-delete when you delete from windows and it will remove the files. I don't use windows my co-worker does and the "move to trash" version of delete won't hide the data from the gallery.

Since it might be a case of apples versus oranges, I’m not sure that this is
relevant. But I might as well share this info.

After I read these posts I decided to test my “3G.” My OS is Vista 64-bit
service pack 2.

I have a copy of a jpeg in screensavers and wallpapers. I deleted the one in
screensavers and it worked fine. Just to be sure I detached the 3G from the
computer and then reattached it and looked for the jpeg. It was gone. The
method I use for deleting is a right-click, then click delete; this does the same
thing that some of you have described using the shift-delete, and I get a dialog
box showing the process.

It definitely sounds odd. I would recommend restarting the Nook Color and trying again.

The difference between delete and shift-delete and is that shift-delete doesn't copy the file into the Recycle Bin; it is immediately removed.
