Okay, here's a simple problem. I want to download a picture from a facebook page onto my phone. Like if I were viewing it on my PC, I'd right-click and save-as. I've looked for a way in the FB app and using FB in dolphin HD and can't seem to figure out what should be a pretty simple move. Is it weird that I want to download a picture onto my phone's memory? What am I missing?

Using the stock browser I can just click and hold on the picture and a pop up will ask my if I want to save the picture..

Guys, I am starting this thread as I did not see this issue discussed.
My phone is not able to load picasa web albums or view pictures from the IE browser. When I click on a link from an email, the picasa mobile page launches and loads. But the Google loading circle with colored dots go round and round, trying to load the pictures, but they never do. I've tried this with couple of albums with no luck.
I'm not sure if anyone has this problem. Please share your thoughts on this and any workaround.

Probably because Google is trying to use some fancy HTML5/JavaScript trickery that IE doesn't yet support.
Go into your settings for IE, and change it to view in desktop mode, then reload the page. You should be able to browse Picasa then.
I just noticed this problem too. Very disappointing that this thread is from 8 months ago and the problem still exists!
I am having a problem with transferring photos from my pc to my phone.
No matter what file I try to transfer them to. They won't be recognized. Like they don't even exist.
I try to transfer them again to the same file to see if maybe it did not work but it says they are there. But when I go to check my gallery, there is no sign of them.
What is going on? Do I have a virus? Can anyone help?
Thanks.

i hate the built-in gallery try to download quickpic (alot of option + fast )
or try to clear cache
OK so that helped with updating my contact pictures list, but I originally wanted to update my wallpaper. I use multi picture live wallpaper. And like I said any new picture I put onto my phone is just not recognized.
I'm just directly put my photos under a folder created by myself in the internal storage.

I have actually done that, but alas did not make a difference. If it makes any difference. I notice that whenever I either plug in my phone into my pc and/or move photos around the "Media Scanner Running" icon notifies me on and off for about 5 minutes even after I have finished. And it as well tends to randomly close any app and the app drawer when I open it.
OK just replying to myself but haha I am becoming more and more frustrated with this. It is also affecting my music as well. I transfer the music files from my pc to my phone and they are only in "My Files" app section. Not found in any of my music players.
Now I have recently downloaded a few apps for customization. Such as ADW Launcher EX, Widget locker, and a few others.
Would any of those somehow change things in my phone. I did pay for them.
Make sure there isn't a .nomedia hidden file in the directory where you placed your picture. Additionally unless you use a media scanning app to force media scan, you will need to restart your phone.

I think I am going to assume there is something wrong with my media scanner on my phone. It is always running and constantly popping up saying it is running, then force closing anything I have open.
i am looking for an app that let me view the photo from a computer thru my wifi net work... i need a app just view not transfer photo so can anyone got any app like this please response to me asap thank you
Dropbox might work for you. You can sync phone, tablet and all your computers. None of the photo's will get erased unless you want them to. Dropbox is free. Also you could use Kies and setup a wifi connection between the 2.

maybe your looking for something like AirDroid. it lets you connect with your device over a wifi network so that you can view/transfer your apps, sms messages, photos, contacts, music and anything else that is on your device. heres the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid
ES file Explorer. View and transfer files over your network. One of my must have apps

Same here.
The new gallery app seems almost useless. I want my old one back.
I want the app to also allow me to sorry folders (albums). The way it works now, those folders are sorted with the oldest ones on top. I have years of photos and photo folders there copied onto the phone. I have to spend several minutes scrolling all the way to the last ones to see the most recent photos just taken. How lame is that? Anyone have any ideas?
I haven't tested because i do not want my drop box photos showing.
1. Make sure you have the drop box account added from the market. (I came from a Note 3 and drop box was automatically installed but it is not with 5).
2. Go to settings > accounts. Click the plus to add an account. It will show you all your aps. Drop box will not be highlighted, select it.
3. When you select and re-sign in, you will be asked about photo uploads.
4. Make sure you have sync turned on. This is the step I did not do.

Hi. When downloading a PDF file (for instance from Facebook) I get a message saying something like "No application available to open file."
If I'm opening a PDF sent to me as an attachment in Gmail it opens just fine. I have Google pdf reader, Acrobat reader and a couple other pdf readers installed just to try if they work. They don't make any difference.
Is it a software problem? System? Launcher?
Running everything stock with ColorOs and stock launcher.
Thanks!
I don't use the Facebook app but it's strange issue as mine open using Gmail, drive, chrome and root explorer... I haven't even download a dedicated pdf reader. If you goto the app management then click default apps section does it let you select your pdf app as the default viewer for text file?

This is what I get.
I thought changing the default app might work since it said no default app was set. But nothing changed...
Good afternoon friends. Please tell us how to compress PDF files if you know how to do it. I just don't understand anything at all, I bought a computer recently. Help me with your advice, friends.
