[Q] Google+ Instant Upload (Creates 2 folders in Gallery on phone) **HELP**

Hi there,
I have turned on instant upload on my phone and sure enough all images are uploaded to google.com\+.
When I go onto the internet on my laptop and look at the "photos from your phone", all my photos are there.
However, if i login to Picasa web album, I see 2 instant upload folders. One titles "instant upload" the other titled "instant upload 2009-01-03 - 2012-01-14".
Sure enough, in my gallery (on my phone) I see the 2 folders...
I had gone onto picasa web albums and moved all images over from the instant upload with date folder to just instant upload (verrified they were all in the right folder) checked on my phone (sure enough all in 1 folder)... but then BAM it re-created the 2nd folder and moved them back.
What's going on here!!!

Well I had been searching for an answer to this issue and I can't find anything! I don't know if it's just me but this just happened to me and it's incredibly annoying!!

I was thinking about the same thing!
I tried to consolidate as well, think there is a number limit so it starts to separate the pictures into new folders by date. Annoying really.
1000 photos limit per folder.

I had this problem before I flashed my phone back to yakju.
I managed to solve this, but I can't for the life of me remember how. Try the Google+ app or through Google+ on your browser
Any info on how this was solved? I recently stared seeing 3 folder for Instant Upload in my gallery and wanted to see how to fix this!

Move the pictures to a different folder. That is the solution. There is a limit to the number of pictures in a single folder.
Scratch that. Will do.
is there any way to make instant upload upload other albums and not just the camera one?

Picasa Album Cache

Since the ICS gallery allows offline viewing of Picasa photos, they must be stored somewhere. But I can't find where. Anyone know where they are downloaded to?

with a file explorer go to the android folder on your internal sd storage, data, com.google.android.gallery3d folder. i dont think that they are actually downloaded though.
Looked in there and there doesn't appear to be any pictures. But since I can view the gallery offline or with no signal, they MUST be somewhere??
Look in the Google+ storage. I believe the Gallery now switches to using G+ for storage when you are logged into that app.
Look in sdcard/Android/data/com.android.gallery3d/cache. There are a great many picasa-... folders there (which contain files with a .screen extension), along with one picasa_covers folder (which contain files with a .thumb extension). Not sure if these files are the pics cause I can't see them at the moment, but it's a start.

Off topic sorry, I have a question.... you cant share a picasa pic from the gallery ? i wanted to send a pic from picasa within the gallery to a friend but it would not let me
Location
All albums which were selected for offline viewing is stored under /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.google.android.apps.plus/cache. you will see picasa-xxxxxx folders, which contain images without any extension. Google has made it as hard as possible. Most threads discussing this topic are old and the only reply you would see is that only thumbnails are being saved and not the images

getting rid of picasa
I have a rooted galaxy note 2 and I had picasa pics in my photo gallery that I could not delete. I disabled the picasa uploader and searched everywhere for the pictures, I had no luck so I used my file manager and searched the system file and found several picasa files. So then I used root explorer and searched picasa and then deleted all the picasa files and then rebooted and the picasa pictures were gone. I don't care for picasa and have no intention of ever using it. But that route worked very well for me.
Hey, I know this is an old thread, but, I stumbled across this page looking for a way to backup the synced Facebook gallery images on my sister's phone. Some jerk who stole her old phone logged into her Facebook and deleted all of her pictures. Lucky for us they were all showing up in her phone still under Facebook albums in the Gallery. I want to thank simms22 because I found the cache files in internal storage/Android/data/com.sec.android.gallery3d/cache it seems that all of the folders that start with "sns-" are Facebook albums, all of the albums starting with "picasa-" are, well, Picasa albums. Each folder contains each picture without an extension. I simply transferred them to my computer and used a bulk rename utility to add .jpg to every file, and, voila! We got her pictures back! They are definitely not the original size, however, this is much better than complete loss of all photos! I'm just really glad my sister chose not to update her Facebook sync info with her new password so I could save her data for her!

That's the symbol for your Picasa Web album. It's most likely synced under accounts>google. All of those pics are saved in your Google Picasa account.

If you have a Google account then you automatically have a Picasa account. They are linked together. Are you using Google +?

Yea, most likely you have instant upload turned on. I have the same setup. If you don't want to see them in your gallery you can open the gallery, hit menu, and then choose 'view by'

I believe you clear data for Gallery and make sure that Picasa sync is unchecked in your Google Account settings and that gets rid of it. I've done it myself, it doesn't delete pictures only that Picasa album
Edit: You can disable Gallery first too if you want, it might be better. I don't think I did

Dropbox synced with Samsung account using internal memory.

Does anyone know a way to have Dropbox synced with your Samsung account without using internal memory. I like being able to select gallery and see the Dropbox pics there instead of having to go to the Dropbox app everytime. When I look on my S4 gallery, all of my Dropbox pics are shown. When you go to storage on the Note, gigabytes of data are taken up by the Cloud. Please help if anyone knows!!

go into settings-->cloud--> and the 2nd row, make sure pictures and videos are completely disabled
on my s4, it would actually download them off the cloud and delete them....
i freaked out that my files were missing from the cloud and figured out that was the case
