1) Why didn't additional photo files upload to cloud as previous ones did?
2) Why did icon disappear?
3) Is any of this due to fact that I may have previously uploaded 7 MB?
4) If so, shouldn't there be some kind of notification vs. just making the icon disappear and still allowing me to drag things into the Skydrive folder?
5) If so, is there a way to buy more storage?
Until recently Skydrive has worked great for me. But this past weekend I began having issues with uploaded photos - both past and new.
When I now open a folder, random thumbnails are blank and random photos cannot be viewed. Sometimes I can view a blank thumbnails photo (and sometimes not). Sometimes a viewable thumbnail won't open.
I've attempted to upload specific folders various ways - directly into Skydrive.com, with the Skydrive app, all files directly (without the folder) etc.
I've also attempted to load specific files in various formats (jpg, png, tiff) with same results. With each new upload the files with issues can vary.
As mentioned above, this issue affects both new uploads as well as existing.
I've uninstalled/reinstalled the Skydrive app and Silverlight. I've completely emptied and reloaded Skydrive.com - issue is still present. I see this has been an issue for others - hope a solutions is available.
Thanks
About 6 months ago (estimated) and before that, in Skydrive, when we uploaded photos, we could check or uncheck a box to tell Skydrive to upload the original file or to upload a smaller (compressed ?) file. The smaller file was big enough to provide a nice photo on a computer screen and to print 5x7 type photos.
I do not see that option now.
Do we have to upload the original file photo size ?
My camera uses about 4 MB for each photo file.
OK.
But I do not need to save that on Skydrive.
About 1 MB seems fine to me.
Thanks.
