I downloaded a pic from my Gmail account and now it has it's own photo album, for some reason I can't delete the picture or the damn album??
I also have what looks like a Picasa album that I can't delete but I don't even have a Picasa account.
Any suggestions. The only pics I can delete are camera photos.
NM figured it out. Annoying.
What did you end up doing?

I'd like to know as well. I have a lot of folders that are empty but i can't get rid o, on both my Transformer and my Nexus
Yeah, I posted a photo to my Google + account and now I have a "posts" album in my gallery. I deleted the photo but the album still exists and it won't let me delete it.

I suggest you delete it from the sd card.

So today on the g+app I went through and deleted all the pictures in the 'from your phone' album. As it had loads of blurry shots and old stuff.
And it deleted all the photos on my phone!
Anyone else had this?

That's what it does, delete is delete.

What you really want though is the deletes on the phone to get deletes from my Google + account.

It'd be nice if deleting from the phone didn't always delete from the account. I was pretty irked when that happened despite the fact that I wasn't logged into Google+

That's what happens. If you just go onto the web and delete the photos, they won't be deleted from the internal storage of the phone.
Doing so from the app, however, does delete the original photos from your device.
Is there a way to hide a group of pictures and keep them from showing up in the gallery without downloading an app to hide such items?

Create a folder titled .nomedia on your sd card.
Place applicable pictures in this newly created folder and they will not be scanned by gallery.
Thanks Rod3 I've wondered this myself.

i just use quickpic to hide from stock gallery, when i wanna see my hidden pics i use quickpic for my gallery viewer.
Quickpic is good for hiding picture folders. it's also password protection.

I'm having a problem with regards to the photo gallery displaying way too many photos and only want to display photos I have stored on the phone and the Instant Upload folder that google plus generates. What do I have to do to make this happen?
I've gone into picasa web galleries and deleted a ton of old ones which aren't relevant anymore, but no matter what I try my gallery app is a mess of photos from posts on google plus with no recognizable folder structure or organization at all.
Should I just give up and use gallery only for local photos and then the google plus app for viewing the instant upload folder?
Is there a third party app that will do what I want?
I really can't help you with the stock gallery app as it blows IMO.
QuickPic from the market will let you display or hide anything you wish.
I love quickpic but it's local files only isn't it?

Settings/accounts & sync / click on you Gmail account(s) and uncheck the photos so it doesn't sync with your device.

One X is a great device. So is this one.
Does anyone know how to hide photo albums in the gallery?
I have quite a few junk files associated with pdfs and others that just fill up my gallery with junk I don't want to see.
life is better with r00t
I went into my extSdCard and built a folder called .nomedia
Then ran everything to it that I didn't want showing up in the gallery. You have to actually go to that folder to open it.

I will give it a try. In 4.2 it was easy. For some reason they had to take something that worked and break it.
Hello
Instead of what is saying in manual, i can't see Picasa Web Album in the Gallery.
My Google Account is synchronized.
Do you know what happen?
Thanks

On my G2 works perfectly Picasa
Isn't it just called photo now ever since Google bought out picasa?

If it's that it's not cool.
On G2 for example, as picasa albums appear in gallery you could set images as wallpaper or other...
Now it's not possible.

Into Google Photo app?
I use multi-photo wallpaper function, and it's not possible. It was on G2 because picasa album appear on gallery
Yes this is a problem and I would love to know why you only have Dropbox and Box to choose from. You can't add any other cloud service.
