I have a Problem, which is really annoying me:
If I try to:
- edit
- cut
- choose as picture in the picture-frame-widget
from my Picasa Web albums (either Profilefotos or Instantupload Album) in my GoogleGallery app, my gallery forcecloses. ALso if I try to share a picture from said Albums by whatsapp or Gmail or whatever, I just opens whatsapp without sending the attachment.
I have no problem if I choose a picture from my internal storage with all the actions above.
I run CM 10.1. I also restored my STOCK IMAGE and still get the same Problem.
Now the weird thing is: ca 1 week ago, I had no problems with e.g. editing my picasa pictures, my Gallery didn't FC and saved my Edited picture in a folder named "EditedOnlinePhotos" and I was on CM 10.1.
I can't remember what I've changed since then, but now I can't edit,share etc. my Picasa Pictures, but I can view them without problem, and my Albums also Syncing without any issue.
PS: If I try to edit a Picture from picasa, it Forcecloses but anyway creates the folder "EditedOnlinePhotos".
please somebody help, I'd really appreciate that
(sry for my bad english, I'm german )
Did you freeze anything related to picasa?
Try other apps like snapseed, picsart, they do the job

Just got this phone. Would like to seek advice from experienced members here.
How do I set the gallery to show only photos from phone by default? By default the setting is all, which includes picassa and Dropbox, which makes opening gallery rather slow as it loads photos from there. Every time I have to set it to view photo from phone only.
Can it be done? Using stock stock rom but rooted.

the main reason i want to do this is because it takes a minute or so to load my photos due to the fact it is searching for photos on my picassa account.
however, i found a way to disable that.
settings->google (under "accounts")->[your email, under "accounts"]->untick "sync picasa web albums"
done! i also unticked sync chrome, currents, google+, instant upload, internet... i left contacts, gmail and calander as i use them.
thanks everyone for trying to help me. i really appreciate that
Hi! I have an annoying issue with google instant upload. If I go to my gallery and settings and I go to the synced accounts , it is selected in the google account , the google photos and instant upload are selected. Now , for whatever reason in the gallery I have the Camera folder and two instant upload folders.... one of them is the normal one with all the photos and one is empty. That one dissapears only when I go to picasa web albums and delete de empty album but that doesn;t work because everytime I take a new photo that empty album appears again and it has as name the date I took the picture. Can someone please help me to fix this and only appear a single instant upload folder?
PS I already tried this: I disable instant upload and only let google photos but then it won't upload the pics anymore; If i disable google photos and let only instant upload it happens exactly the same
It has been assumed that this is a bug on Google's side with the transition away from Picasa to G+. There is only one way I know to get rid of it and that is to delete both folders and then turn photo sharing off. Instant upload will still work, but the albums will no longer keep appearing in Gallery.
Having an issue with the Gallery.
I had Picasa photo sync turned on and I didn't want my Gallery cluttered with old pictures/wallpapers that I've had over the past year. So I went, logged onto Picasa on my computer, and deleted all of the albums. However whenever I go into the Gallery app in my N4, and click the menu button and click refresh, all of my albums pop up.
I cannot access them as they have no pictures but they show the name of the album. I know I can choose to not sync them, hit refresh and fix the problem that way but it's a little OCD-type of thing that I just don't like. I've tried clearing cache and data in both the Gallery app and the Picasa uploader app in Settings-->Applications.
Tl;dr: I deleted all my Picasa albums on my computer but they still appear in my Gallery on my phone. I need a way to delete/remove them without turning off sync.
EDIT: Nevermind, found a solution. Please delete this thread, thanks!
To this day I have found no cure for deleting them unless you wipe your ROM, flash a new one, disable photo sync, and uninstall picasa with titanium. That's only to prevent it. Once it syncs the only solution is a wipe....
What was the solution?????

hi there.
two days ago i got my new s5. i like it and all but all the image storing and online storage is a little much at first. but since my previous phone was stolen and i lost a couple of hundred of fond memories (pictures) i was determined to store them online this time. i set up a dropbox account that seems to come with the phone and i used picasa or whatever google drive calls my online gallery (never used this before).
it's neat and i figured out how to hide online pictures so it serves as a backup.
NOW TO MY PROBLEM:
since everything is new to me here (had sgs2 before) i played around in the gallery that is now largely different. i seem to have set something to the wrong setting because now it doesn't show ANY PICTURES anymore. not from any folder/album. from one second to the other everything was gone (from the gallery). the pictures are all there, though. i can access them with any other app (es file explorer, google pictures, camera, etc.) but i want my gallery back. it says "no items - after you take, record or upload pictures or videos to dropbox, items will be shown in gallery"
this leads me to suspect that i might have switched my gallery to displaying the contents of my EMPTY dropbox account. i don't want this but i am unable to change it back. besides i have an app for dropbox stuffs so why is this feature even integrated?
settings shows me the following:
accounts:
[g] my gmail account
SNS DATA CONTROL:
sync via wifi only [v]
CLOUD SYNC
dropbox sync
tap to sync content
FILTER
filter by
TAGS
tag buddy
off
face tag [_]
above i can only access "Add Account" which brings me to a menu displaying all my accounts (or some): samsung, google, dropbox, facebook
PLEASE HELP ME!
i did not find any help searching because there seems to be a similar problem with people's media storage malfunctioning. i don't believe that is my problem but i tried resetting the media storage anyways. i am sure it is something that i did to hide my pictures. how do i get them back? i don't plan on using a different gallery app but maybe it is the only solution?
regards

i actually just installed quickpic and it shows all my pictures which proves to me even further that nothing is wrong with the pictures but just that my gallery is screwed up. how do i unscrew it?
Clear data for gallery app under settings/applications.
This is new and strange on my S7 Edge. Photos sent to me on whatsapp were usually shown in my gallery app.
Not anymore!! The "whatsapp" album on gallery is not there and I can't see whatsapp saved images...
What am I doing wrong?

try a reboot
Mine are still in the gallery, did you sync your Whatsapp account so it downloads all contacts and stored messages and such as you had on your old phone? I'm no Whatsapp expert but maybe there are settings you can change. I moved everything from my old phone with Smart Switch but I noticed the UI from Whatsapp changed a lot compared to what I had on my S2.
If reboot does not work then download esfile explorer or root fileexplorer you can check whatsapp folder for nomedia file if you find it delete it. It is not shown normally so you have to set it to show all files.
