I've used FolderSync to sync the photos from my Rezound onto my Nexus, they are in the Pictures folder, but none of the pictures show up in the Gallery app. It doesn't seem like there is a way to add a folder to the Gallery app unless I've missed it. Does anyone know of a way to add the Pictures folder to the Gallery app? Or will I have to move the pics to the DCIM folder? Thanks!

I can't be the only one who has tried adding photos to my tablet, can I?
the gallery app should pick up all images in the device.. It scans for them and links to them as they are created or put onto the device..
mine isn't doing this. I've opened the Gallery app and hit refresh and it still isn't picking them up.

I have the same problem on mine. I've copied a directory of photos, under /sdcard/Pictures/test, hit refesh and they will not appear in Gallery.
The only photos that appear in Gallery are those from "Download", "Profile Pictures" and "Scrapbook Photos".
Normally it's automatic.
Silly question: have you restarted your Nexus 7?

I'm having the same problem, but it only picks up my Picasa photos. I but then when I don't sync my Picasa photos the Picasa photos still show up.. I restarted several times... Any solution?
Me too
I also have copied 2 folders to the picture directory which gallery does not see.
AND nothing else opens individual pics either. ES Image, FE Image, nor Image gallery.
I don't know if it matters.....These are .tif files.
Thanks

Hello All,
I been having problems with my Gallery photos. It seems like they disappear or does not want to show as if it is corrupted. Photos that are saved on computer and moved to my SD card most of the show up and the ones that will not show up is there when i select it in the gallery (but not show up as an icon).
But recent photos taken with nexus camera will show up but then a day or so it will disappear (icon will not show up in gallery) and when i click on the blank icon it will not show up at all (as if it is corrupted). As soon as I take a picture with the nexus camera I can go to the gallery and select it and click on it to enlarge the picture but its after a day or so it disappears.
So I drag the missing pictures to my desktop on my laptop and it says picture can not be shown. What happen to my recent photos taken with my camera phone? Please help.
I have tried killing the gallery app and still no luck and also restarting the phone.
thanks

Not sure if this is against the rules to bring up an old thread but.. atleast i used the search function!
Im having this problem on my Galaxy S2.. and... is it sure that theres a problem in the internal sdcard?
Can it not be fixed by some different kind of reformat or something?
Or do i just need to go somewhere and have the sdcard replaced.
Try replacing your SD card? that at least eliminates one possibility.
So, for the life of me, I can't get Picasa Web Albums to show up in the Gallery app. Its also not in the sync list under Settings->Accounts & Sync->my account. I was able to "share" photos with "Picasa" but it still doesn't show up.
I'm on CM10 and experience the same behavior with my CM10'd HOX, but stock JB did the same thing.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Billy

It's called Google Photos now...
Settings -> Under Accounts -> Google -> Click on your account (top) -> Check on "Google Photos"
Don't see Google photos as an option.

I'll try that since I don't have a "photos" option in the sync menu either. Goo.im doesn't have a gapps from 8/10 but I found this one on devhost: http://d-h.st/VIG I'm gonna try it tomorrow. I'll report back.

You should change system application. Change "gallery2.apk" to "Gallerygoogle.apk".
I uploaded Gallerygoogle.apk. You should put this application in System folder, fix permission as 644 and put it in System/App folder.
You must remove Gallery2. And then you should launch a new gallery application, go to preference and sync with your google account.
Good Luck

I've just the opposite problem, can't figure out how to stop those pics in picasa web from showing up in gallery. I've disabled Google photos and instant upload syn, clear gallery app data and cache then those pics were gone for a while but came back later if the gallery get refresh. Google photos stays untick but it sync anyway.

You have to delete /sdcard/pictures/cache. That's where they are stored.

Hello guys, my dad has just bought a nexus 7, and I must admit it is a really nice device.
However there are some pictures on it and we cant find how to delete them, i have even been in the system files using astro.
I have also hooked it up to a computer and still cant find them, however they show up in the gallery of the device.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Showing nothing in there, been and had a look in there already thinking it was in there
maybe its pictures that have been uploaded to g+/picasa, they will show in the gallery even though they arent in your device.
You can delete pictures using the stock gallery app. Open the picture then tap on it and you should see a trash icon at the top right. If they are in an album, just long-press on it to see the trash icon.

Disable syncing of Google Photos in settings/accounts/Google.
Then, delete the cache folder in/sdcard/Pictures. That's where they are stored.

Hi,
I have around 1600 photos and some videos taken by my S4 saved in the external card now. I noticed that my default gallery app becomes really slow when I click the 'camera' folder containing those 1600+ items. If I click other folders in the gallery (which has less photos, may be around 200) the respond is quick.
Does anyone else experiencing the same?
My S4 is now using the latest firmware, not rooted and all just by default.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

The thing is....when you have 1600+ items in one folder....your gallery needs to generate 1600+ thumbnails.....this is a very slow process since there are so many files....best thing to do is move files into other folders....I mean make come folders with categories so that there arr not more than 200-300 files in one folder....this will speed up your gallery again....hopefully this helped you

If this only happened for one time yes it does make sense but it happens everytime I try to go to camera folder. I don't think android needs to create thumbnail everytime. It should be in the cache already and I didn't delete the cache at all.

Hey guys I have a weird issue where my gallery app is not seeing some of my pics on my external sd card. The pics it is not seeing are pics that I had moved onto the card from my computer. They are in the DCIM folder along with some pics I have taken with my device. Currently only the pics taken with my device are showing in the gallery app. Anyone else having this issue?
Mods, please move this to the help/Q&A section. I mistakenly posted in general
Hey guys just want to bump this. Surely I'm not the only one having this problem. Any help greatly appreciated

In my case the gallery shows only pictures saved till a given date. Lasta night I made an experience: Dismounted SD card and Mounted it agais, amd the result is that now I get even less pictures displayed.
However I can find and use them using root explorer, but not with any gallery app
I also run some sd-fix app's but with no result
very strange

Thanks pasil. Hopefully somebody else might chime in with some other ideas. I've tried everything so far. It just doesn't make sense. The .jpg files are saved in the same place as the other .jpg files that are pictures I have taken with my phone. There is no logical reason why those .jpg pics show up and not the ones from my computer. The gallery app should pick up all .jpg files.

Just tried clearing data/cache. Didn't work. [emoji19]
I even tried using a different gallery app and that app doesn't see the photos either.
Did you checked the date? sometimes it's resetted to 1999 and the recently taken photos are placed at the end of the list.

Just checked the dates and they are OK. The recent photos I have taken with my device all show in my gallery, but some of the other .jpg photos I moved onto my sd card from my computer just aren't showing up at all in the gallery. Makes no sense. I'm totally at a loss. I can see the pics in ES File explorer but not in the gallery
That maybe stupid suggestions. Can you access those "invisible" picture using stock file manager? If yes, try to create new folder using stock file manager and copy/move few pictures for testing. Check if new folder with pictures shows in gallery.

Maybe you could try little walk around. What about uploading few testing pictures on your pc to your dropbox account and see if you can successfully save them for offline viewing on your note.

Ok so this is really weird. If I download a pic from my drive account it does show up in my gallery. Also, if I move one of the photos that is not visible in gallery on my sd card to my internal device storage then it also becomes visible in my gallery. So the issue is isolated to photos moved onto the ext sd card from my pc. I'm hoping someone smarter than me can come up with a fix because I have many photos I like to keep downloaded on my ext sd card.
What about moving them back to sd card. Try to create folder on sd card using stock file manager and move pictures to that folder. I have no problem storing pics on my sd card.

Ok so problem solved! Upon your advice I created a folder on my sd card and moved the pics there and they showed up! Turns out if you have them saved anywhere in the DCIM folder on the SD card they won't show up, but if you move them out from there they show up in the gallery app just fine.
instaled Quickpic and now I can see all photos and pictures
