does anyone have their Picasa Web Albums showing in the stock Gallery App? I was able to see them on all of my prior devices (both stock and custom ROMs, including KitKat). I do see the "photos" app, which has them, but I prefer they were in the gallery app.
thanks!
Picasa is dead isn't it? It's now Google Photos.

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but I'l take a stab at it.
I used to have some Picasa albums, which were eventually merged into Google Drive. No matter what phone I have, they always seem to appear in my gallery app. Somehow, all of my Picasa albums were merged into Google Plus. To access them, you can navigate to picasaweb.google.com/
They show up in my stock gallery app, and I didn't change any settings to make that happen.
I hope that helps.

Have you guys tried uploading pictures to Picasa from your Gallery since updating to Gingerbread? I've tried everything, but every time I try the upload fails. It did work on Froyo, but no longer.
I can't either with CM7. Maybe it's not ready for primetime. Also, this is just an upload, when I saw picasa sync I figured I could add albums into my gallery *from* picasa to sync, or at least a way to automatically sync an album directly to picasa. This doesn't seem so much like sync as it does just an android uploader.
I came across a weird error tonight on my Vivid.
I was initially unable to upload any videos to Youtube. I cleared data and logged into the app again several times with no success. Several google searches led me to a solution that basically required me to log in with my youtube username, rather than my google account that was already configured on the phone. However, the most recent youtube app wouldn't allow you to log in with anything other than a google account, so I had to roll back the update. Finally I was able to log in with my youtube username and password.
Now I can upload videos, but when I go to the gallery and switch to just my Picasa albums, I get a sign-in error for my Youtube account. And no matter what I do, I can't upload any pictures to my Picasa account. My albums list won't populate in the uploader drop-down.
This is completely retarded. Basically my google services won't work together on my Android phone and all of my accounts are linked. Seriously? Anyone else having this issue?
TL;DR version: Can only upload to youtube if signed into older version of app with youtube username/password. Can't upload to native Picasa at all (Picasa tool app works). Get sign-in error for Youtube account when I try to view my Picasa albums.
Hi everyone; wondering if anybody else is experiencing this problem (if it's even a problem, I'm not sure).
As far as I know, when I go into my stock Gallery app and navigate to my PicasaWeb folder, I should be able to view any videos I have in my PicasaWeb; I can see the different folders I have in there, but when I go into a folder, none of the videos actually show up. I know I have several videos in two separate folders, and I can access them normally through the web interface as well as Google+. Is there something I can do to be able to play my PicasaWeb videos through the stock Gallery app?
Any information provided would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks very much,

Just confirming that I dont' have my videos in Gallery via PicasaWeb either. This probably has something to do with the fact that you can't download videos that you've uploaded from PicasaWeb. I think that's what the gallery does, is downloads available content, and since videos aren't actually available for download, they don't show as an option to view
Slideshow feature is missing in Gallery for Picasa Web Album after ICS 4.0.4 Update in my 7310. I was able to run slideshow of Picasa Web Album in Gallery earlier in HC 3.2. I have synced all the Google Account including Picasa Web Album. I am able to view all the picasa web albums in Gallery. Slideshow is working only for Downloads, Camera, Screen Capture but not for Picasa Web Almums.
Please suggest how to fix or to make it work. Is there any free apps which will do this. Thanks.

Thanks djcasal,
I tried this app just now, but it is not supporting Picasa Web Albums.

I have Googled your problem, and there are several Motorola Xoom forums that claim the sync was removed from ICS. Others in the forum report they can sync again after installing Google+ (going back from Google+, is not a real option after that).
There was even someone who installed an older version of the Galary app, he needed to flash it by zip (lost his camera function and installed ICS Camera).
You could try the Google+ option, if not rooted. But check the forum first for more info:

Hi djcasal, Thanks for your efforts. My only problem is that Slideshow Feature is not available only for Picasa Webalbums. Otherwise I am able to sync to Picasa, Google+. This feature was disabled only after ICS 4.0.4 update whereas it was available in HC 3.2. I have one throught the links provided by you but so far no fix reported.
Hi,
I'm not 100% sure, but I've had access to my cloud photos from gallery app in P10 (like they were still on phone). Now I see only photos made with this phone.
All synchronization options are on. Any one knows how to access those photos without using web app/browser?
Best regards
TBH,
I use google photos, flickr and one drive to backup my photos to the cloud, this ensures I can use them across all my devices (mobile, tablet, pc, laptop, tv)
Have you checked via the windows login to see if the photos are showing
Yes, when i login in browser I can access, download etc all uploaded files. Just don't see them in phone
Looks like I can only upload them but not download or view directly in gallery app
