How do I delete Albums from Photos for synced folders that don't exist anymore? I previously used a Windows 7 desktop PC before and synced a folder of pictures to my iPod Touch 4G Photos using iTunes. Unfortunately, the desktop PC crashed and so I had to reinstall Windows 7 on my laptop.

In my current Windows 7 setup on my laptop, I have reorganized my folder structure which included the pictures folders.

So now, I want to sync to these picture folders with my iPod Touch. But first I want to delete a previously synced folder from my iPod Touch (as these will most likely duplicate pictures which are now on different folders). The problem is, I can't do that on the iPod. And I can't do that on iTunes as well because the synced to folder isn't there anymore.

The only thought that occurred to me is to reset the device but I don't want to do this just yet. How do I go about deleting the folder from my photos without touching the other data (e.g. Emails, Messages, etc) on my iPod Touch?
What I did to erase photos in my iPod Touch synced to a non-existent folder.


Created an empty folder in my Pictures directory (eg. Temp)
Plugged in my iPod Touch, opened iTunes and went to the Photos tab and synced to the empty folder
Opened the Photos app in iPod Touch and album I wanted to remove was removed
