Galaxy S5 :: How To Get Picasa Album To Go Away On Phone
Sep 24, 2015
The album just randomly appeared with pictures from Hangouts on it. I have searched the net and done everything I have seen and the album won't go away. I deleted the hangout messages, un-synced my email, followed the instructions for going through the app manager and nothing. The photos don't show up in my G+ photos or anywhere else in in my account. The only place I can see them is on my phone and it's really getting on my nerves. I had a bunch of angry drawings (childish!) sent to me with rude things in them and they are stuck in my phone.
I have a Picasa album on my Galaxy S5, but I'm unable to see them on my phone. Does the Picasa album mimics the photos backup in Google? If so, why can't I view them on my phone?
I was having issues with S-Voice and contacts. To fix the problem I backed up all my contacts to GMAIL. I then deleted my GMAIL account from my Galaxy s5. I then added it back as a new account, and synced the account as a brand new install. Everything worked fine and it restored my contacts and synced everything else in the account except Picasa. Now I am getting the Sync Error message for the syncing for the Picasa Web album. This never happened before.
I HATE Picasa, but don't want to delete ALL the photos, because that is the only place on my phone that they're stored. Is it possible to select specific pictures in Picasa, and delete them? (Where's the dang "delete" garbage can icon, like with regular photos????
I have ignored this ever since I got the phone April 11, but it is getting to be a PITA.Picasa insists that I log into it, and I refuse to use any web based file hosting services. Especially if it has anything to do with Google.I have gone into Google+ and turned off just about everything, but Picasa is still there on my notifications screen wanting me to sign in.
Any means of deleting photos from picasa? I have tried a few different things and I can not seem to have any luck. I have deleted the photos from my account on the laptop, disabled syncing, etc. The work around used for prior galaxy devices does not seem to be possible.
I have many photos in Picasa, sorted into many folders. On the S5, it displays all the picasa pics as one folder. On my S3 it displayed the folders individually. How to display the pics in folders?
How can I remove photos backed up by google picasa from appearing in the gallery? I just turned off the sync feature and then rebooted the phone but they are still there?
I recently replaced my iPhone 3GS with a new iPhone 4S. The album art is fine when viewed via my iMac in iTunes, but when I sync an album to my phone, it gives it a random album cover from my library instead of the correct one. I go to iTunes and manually re-upload the album art but when I sync again it's still incorrect.
there is no way to only sort by "album name", just a combination of "artist and album name" is accessible under options in the menu. This gives me problem since I have a lot of compilations with various artist names.I remember that it was some similar problems with 5800 XM, but fixed via an s/w release a long time ago...
On my S6 i upload a lot of my ripped CD's in MP3 format from my PC. Using Google Play on my Nexus 5, since the album art (even if you have the art in the same directory as music) doesnt show need to use an app, so i use Album Art Grabber from the GPS.
On my Nexus 5, the only time i'd need to re-run to grab the artwork is if I added new music...so i'd have to clear the Data from Google Play (Play Music), run Art Grabber and then run Google Play again. With the S6 however, im finding the artwork keeps disappearing every 24 hours or so. I keep having to re-run the Album Art grabber and cannot understand why. Never had this issue on my Nexus 5.
it happens with both Google Play and Stock Music player app, some cache clearing is happening over some hours and i cant figure it out.
Using stock music player (don't particularly like Poweramp), is it possible to get full album art on the lock screen? When the S6 first came out, I used my friend's and it didn't appear to be an option - I wondered if it's now possible?
I've had my phone for 4 months (Verizon Galaxy 6, 64GB) and this started happening only a couple weeks ago. My Download album keeps disappearing from the Gallery, as do all the pics I've saved to it. When I start saving again, the album reappears and begins to store pics (in this case from emails) but after a few days I'll notice it's gone again.
I have been collecting photos of house ideas that I like from downloads. This morning that album has just magically vanished and I know I didn't delete it. Any remote chance it is still somewhere on my phone?
Got my Samsung Galaxy s5 two days ago. I was organizing my photos and try to move them into different albums, but I don't know what I did, the layout of all album changed. Originally all albums are on the left side and photos of each album are on the right side. But now I see all albums on the same page. How to change back to that original preview layout?
I transferred 2000+ songs on to my memory card and when i went to play them they play fine but the thumbnails are all the same. he phone seems to have picked a random thumbnail and applied it to every song. I've tried everything to change it and get an individual thumbnail for each song with no luck. I've tried Album Art Grabber but for some reason it picks out only one artist from my sd card and I can change that thumbnail but it then changes them to all being the same.
I just bought a new sd card. I'm attempting to move pictures from my device to my new sd card, certain pictures, i was able to copy, but none from the device camera album. ...
So I just updated to lollipop on my Galaxy S5 and all of a sudden, when I play music, the album art on my lock screen is squished together and distorted, because it's resizing the album art to perfectly fit the screen.
How to remove a photo set as a music album cover. I don't want to do a restore and I didn't set the pic I don't know how it got on there but it is from my photo gallery.
