Photo syncing? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Is there an app or a way to get Facebook and Dropbox to sync into my built in gallery. I have the apps synced in my accounts, but doesn't seem there's an option to do what I'm looking for?

Do you mean something like this? Where it can automatically sync everything in any folder to your Dropbox account.

I can't figure out how to use that, but what I'm trying to do is get my drop box and fb photos, in my nexus 7 photo gallery.

Anything? I know about the "my album" app, but I want something that Synch's as I go.

I'm using FolderSync for a similar purpose.
With that App, I can schedule the synchronisation of selected folders from my phone's storage to (in my case) a shared folder in my home network. The same is set up for my Nexus 4. By that, the photo albums on both devices are synced. I guess it should provide the options to sync also your Dropbox files. Give it a try!

That sounds awesome, I will try that, thank you!

It's kind of confusing.. I set up my drop box account and I can't get it to sync to my gallery..

Contapp

I like using contapp to sync my contacts to Facebook because the pictures are always sized correctly. Is there anyway to save the picture it sets with the contact as a default picture and it saves to Google account so I don't have to run contapp every time I flash a new rom?

Unfortunately even if you sync back to Google the pics will sync back at low res.

Samsung S3 calendar default?

Does any one know how to set the s3 so that the default calendar is Google. All appointments by default go to Samsung calendar. I want to be able to just use Google. I have lost appointments because they didn't show in Google on my other devices. Can't seem to find any way of doing this. Thank you

Go to Calender in app drawer, settings and scroll down to calendar and unchecked those you don't want to sync.

Ok, did you deactivate syncing for samsung? Go to settings>acounts and sync>tap samsung and uncheck calendar.

Thanks a lot..
I did. Still defaults to Samsung calendar and does not show in Google. The only way to get appointments on Google is to select Google calendar drop down every time.

Search around. SyncMyPix for their pictures, for numbers I'm not entirely sure, but I'm sure there is an app out there.

Thanks. I'm mostly concerned about my phone numbers

There should be an app out there, or pick the ones you know you'll need and actually save them to your phone.
Try Haxsync

I have had success using Friendcaster for Facebook to sync contacts with pics. I just turn off all notifications.

No exchange calendar on Galaxy Nexus 4.2.1

I just switched from iPhone to Android on the phone (it's not my first time with Android )
I have upgraded to 4.2.1 takju
Restored my apps thru Google Play
Setup my exchange account using stock email app.
Up to here everything is fine, but my calendar from exchange server is not being shown in the stock calendar app
I tried to install acalendar with the same results
Can anyone please advise?

What I do is use Google calendar sync, which runs on my office PC. It sends my calendar over to my work Google account which I have configured as a second account on my phone. It works very well. I think the only other alternative you might have is the Touchdown app in the store.

Thank you for the reply
Is this the only way? Shouldn't stock exchange app (which has Calendar sync option) be syncing the calendar?
Mine syncs fine. Just make sure you have calendar set to sync in your exchange settings, and make sure your calendar is set to display your exchange calendar.

that's exactly the problem
i have the calendar set to sync, but i cannot choose it to be displayed in the calendar app (i don't have it as an option)
I depend on exchange calendar sync and I have never had a prob. You said your previous phones were able to sync?
