Hello,
Starting yesterday, whenever I try to view photos on my skydrive account using the picture hub, i get the following message:
"Can't get picture. It may be a connection issue (you can try again later). Someone else's picture? It may be an issue with their privacy settings."
Nobody is tagged in any of these photos. I can view them just fine from any PC. The first 3 pictures I can view no problem, but after that i get that message whenever i click on one. Thumbnails show up just fine but whenever i click on them i get that error message. This is not my skydrive camera roll, but a different album that i have made.
Using the Skydrive app, i can access all pictures no problem. Only recent changes I have made was to remove linkedin from my accounts, so i think that is not the issue.
Any help would be great.

Seems to have fixed itself. Its been like this for almost 24 hours. All I did was create a new folder, move a couple pictures into, upload a new photo, and all the sudden it is working again on my phone. Very odd.
Ever since I got my S3 a few weeks ago when I look at the DCIM photo folder I don't get a thumbnail image of my photos or videos. This makes it very difficult to pull photos from my phone to my computer because I can't see what the photo is till its copied to my desktop. Anyone have any idea why its doing this or a fix for it?
With Windows 7 the only way to see thumbnails is to use Kies or remove your SDCard and mount it directly (assuming you are saving images to your card). Even though the MTP protocol supports thumbnails, Microsoft's implementation of it in Win7 doesn't. Whats weird is that even with the custom rom I use *Frosty I'm not able to see the thumbnails but when I changed to Ktoonez Kernel I was able view thumbnails, no clue why.
Search broken again??
Removing your SDcard and inserting it into your PC is probably the simplest solution other than using Kies. But if you don't want to hassle with taking of your case (if you have one) then you could try connecting it as a camera instead of MTP. If that doesn't work, you could use your cloud service of choice and manually upload the photos and access the cloud from your PC. Just my 2 cents, sorry if it was too common sense.
Thanks for the tips. I guess I was just used to my NexusS not doing this so I thought something was wrong with my S3 when it wouldn't show any thumbnails when looking at my photo folders. I figured out the Kies thing last night by chance when I was seeing what that did but I don't want to load extra software on my work PC. I guess I'll stick with moving them from my picasa instant upload folder to my PC.
Hi! I have this problem which is bothering me for a week now. When i open gallery and try to view camera pictures it only shows me pictures i made during last week or later, the rest are black or says "loading". I have already tried changing the saving directory for pictures from external storage to internal but it makes no difference. :/ on my external sd card i also have some pictures from my previous phone. it makes no sense because the pictures were shown normally untill now. i also tryed showing them with Quickpic app but its the same. I can only view the on my computer and maybe if im lucky from preinstalled "File organiser". If anyone has any solution for this please write it.
Thanks for help, cheers
Strange issue. I just took a look at my stock gallery app and I'm not noticing it. I typically use the Google Photos app, though. Have you tried clearing the data for the stock Gallery app?

[Q] Note 4 Gallery Failure to update
So, how often does the gallery ap, or whatever cache it uses updating for new files?
I download a picture, and it refuses to show up until after I restart the phone.
Ideas?
So. Anyone? Repro:
Download image from external source. Web or Dropbox.
go to gallery app. Notice download gallery is not updated.
have to restart to get it to show up.
Can anyone even repro this? Hello?
SD card speeds?
Hello,
I would start by formatting your SD card and putting your pics back on the SD card. If you dont have a class 10 SD card then the gallery can be a pain.
I use a Samsung 64gb Pro MicroSD and it simply flies. After the first boot up.. never noticed a single refresh. Must have cached all my hundreds of pics as I can
now freely flow though my entire library at full speed with zero redraws. Hope this helps.
PS. Best Buy has the nice 64gb Samsung EVO microSD card on sale for $30 right now. That should be perfect.
That has nothing to do with this. "Havent noticed a refresh". What?
Anyway, the issue is that the gallery is NOT refreshing when new things are written to the card outside of camera photos. So downloaded photos do not show up. It has nothing to do with the SD card.
Thanks.
Good Luck then. Seems you are alone on this. Warranty replace maybe? Factory reset?

Do you have dropbox or picasa Web albums? I know on my phones , the gallery can become unusable because it wants to sync the 9000 pictures I have on drop box, another 6000 or so on picasa and a few thousand from favebook. I have my pictures set to auto upload, so they build up.
Anyway, the gallery automatically I'd set to sync those thumbnails, and the result is that my phone slows to a hault.
Turning off picasa and dropbox to sync in the gallery fixes it every time.
Nope he is not aloe. I have the same issue. And I bet you also have it.
Download a picture from dropbox to SD or externalSD, and try to find it in the gallery. You won't be able to find it because the gallery refresh is slow (or buggy). If you receive files over BT, or snap some pics, they will be instantly available in the gallery. But not downloaded or PC uploaded images.
My solution was to open the image in file exporer. Navigate to where you downloaded it, and open it 1x-2x, then it will show up in the gallery as well. Or another workaround is Quickpic.. It's quite a very awesome app that lets you show/hide different folders (which the default gallery LACKS), even password protect some. The only reason I use the built in gallery is because my display is set to auto adapt and it changes the display to AMODEL picture (but I might change the display to permanent AMOLED picture)..
Hi people.
I recently bought a 64gb MSD card from eBay, and I had set the photos to be storaged at the external storage. Besides that I'm running Android 6.01
The problem is, last night I attended a wedding where I shot some pictures, and during last night I could see in the gallery that when I started taking the pictures, the pictures in the gallery was in the beginning there, however, soon after the gallery would say the pictures format was unrecognizable (WTF?), and the pictures would go missing from the phone. I've tried using the storage handling, which is provided by android. And I'm not able to see the picture. I've tried downloading ASTRO, and get it to show the hidden files. No luck either. I've tried erasing the .nomedia file from the MSD, still nothing.
I've tried here, the morning after to take a new photo, and I can see it's supposed to be saved at storage/emulated/o/DCIM/100media, So I've gone there by the USB port on my desktop, and I still can't see the pictures. I've been through every bloody folder on the storage without any result (And yes, I've tried installing the HTC app for desktops )
If you people have any idea how to get a hold of the pictures (If they are still there?), it would greatly appreciated!
