How to see One Drive photos in Photo Gallery

23. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: , ,

When using Windows Photo Gallery the only folders I am allowed to access are My Pictures or My Videos.

While I do keep my complete photo collection on My Pictures on my desktop, I also keep a subset of these photos on One Drive so that they are available to third parties and  on my laptop. I am able to access One Drive photo folders using Windows Explorer or Skydrive.com but these are not available on Photo Gallery which, as mentioned above, seems to be restricted to My Pictures

Is there any change I can make to allow One Drive folders to be seen on Photo Gallery?

 

Need Help…to figure out how my email unknowingly attached 3,500 pics from Windows Photo Gallery!

18. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: ,

I know this seems impossible but maybe someone can shed some light on how this happened.

I recently attached 5 pics to an email sent over my iPhone 5s (64gig) and when the email was received by my friend...not only did it contain the 5 pics I knowingly attached but as they scrolled down the screen my entire 3,500 pic collection of photos from over 10 years (about 4gigs) from Windows Photo Gallery was also attached. It doesn't end there...as Their entire collection of Windows Photo Gallery (from their own PC)appeared below my gallery. 

The attached Photo Gallery pics appeared on their screen as they would when you open your gallery...in a grid of small photo icons. The grid of photo icons was functional in that they would increase in size as they clicked on each photo.

*We each use Windows 7 and store pics on Windows Photo Gallery. (I also have my pics on the Google Picassa 3 photo gallery.)

*This email was sent over my iPhone (ATT) which only had about 200 pics on it and is not connected by Bluetooth to my PC...or any other way to my knowledge.

*I have charged my phone on their computer in the past but never been inside of the PC to download anything...They have charged their phone from my PC but never downloaded from it. (We do not know each others passwords to anything)

*I forwarded the same email to several other addresses but none of the forwarded emails contained any files other than the intended 5 attached photos.

*I am told the size of the attached photo collection was about 4gig.

*Apple iPhone tech people tell me that only the pics on my iPhone can be attached to an email sent by the iPhone.

I have spoken to people at Microsoft (my PC), ATT (cell phone provider), Yahoo (email) & Apple (iPhone) and none of them have even an idea of how this could have happened...several have said it's impossible...yet it happened.

PLEASE...Can anyone shed ANY light on this and how it could have happened? I am being accused of hacking or secretly downloading my friends Photo Gallery content and it has caused problems for me. 

Thanks in advanced for any suggestions!!! 

Where are the release notes for the latest update of Windows Essentials?

13. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: , , ,

Recently, Windows Essentials was updated.  Windows Photo Gallery 2012 now shows a build number of 16.4.3528.331.

How is that build version different from the previous version?

What bugs were fixed?

What new features are there?

What previous features were removed?

What are the impacts on existing cataloged media files and metadata?

Would it be possible to answer each one of these questions?

Thanks

Windows Photo Gallery CVS link error

01. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized · Tags: ,

When I open the Windows Photo Gallery and try to send photos to print, there is a drop down list to select where I want my photos to be sent.  The list includes HP Snapfish web site and CVS pharmacy.  If I choose CVS I receive an error message that says "Unable to get property 'click' of undefined or null reference."  If I go directly to the CVS website without going through the Windows Photo Gallery, I have no problems.  CVS said that they do not use the CVS website provided by Windows Photo Gallery (CVS pharmacy), but they use cvsphoto.com.  How can I add the proper cvsphoto link to the Windows Photo Gallery print options?

Windows Photo Gallery: Edit Photos?

How can edit photos, copy a specific part of a photo, delete part of a another photo, put in its place, the part of another photo one copied: 'cut (copy) & paste'?

Particularly in the case of 'letters' e/g.  name on a T shirt, as an alternate to using 'Paint' to edit the, a 'letter' on the T shirt: change a 'I' to an 'E'?
