 How do I delete my upload history?

Print

The thumbnail images you see in the Eye-Fi Manager web application are stored in one of two places depending on where the original file was uploaded.

If you have configured your Eye-Fi Card to be in ‘local’ only mode, the thumbnail images are stored on your local computer’s hard drive. The Eye-Fi Manager uses a web browser to display the images in the upload history but they are being read from your computer. This can be confirmed by logging into the Eye-FI Manager (http://manager.eye.fi) from a different computer. Removing therolder(s) where the thumbnails are stored will remove them from the Eye-Fi Manager

If you are uploading files to an online photo site, then the thumbnails in the upload history are stored on Eye-Fi servers. Currently the only way to remove thumbnails stored on the Eye-Fi server is to remove the corresponding Eye-Fi Card from your account and re-add it. If you have only one Eye-Fi Card in your account, this will also entail deleting and recreating your entire Eye-Fi account. In both cases, the entire upload history of the corresponding Eye-Fi Card will be flushed from our servers, including the thumbnail images.
