You will get more information and expert support at the support forum that focuses on Google Account issues and capabilities:

Google Account Help Community

Here in the Photos group we are all volunteers without access to anybody else's data or accounts.. I am not sure if there are people with special capabilities in the Account Help group but they are the experts on your situation.

So, in summary, first get access to your account, then hopefully you can access your photos at:

https://photos.google.com/u/0/

Best regards and good luck, Dougsap (volunteer Google Photos user)

I want to backup photos and videos from Google photos to my gallery but due to storage full I am unable to do this as Google want payment for getting extra storage that is only done by card and I don't have card is it possible through net banking.if and I want only one month subscription if I will pay through card will the subscription continue for every month.

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.

I suggest you contact Google Pay to know the reason why net backing can't be used.

Answer:

No ok if NetBanking is not working then my question is that if I will pay through debit card for one month whether it will continue for successive months.i want this subscription only for one month

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Thanks for your reply

However, can you clarify the purpose for subscribing only for a month?

Do you want the additional storage? Or are you looking for only the extra editing features available with Google one subscription?

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Thanks for your reply

I suggest you arrange for a takeout

Visiting the link https://takeout.google.com/

Select the Google Photos app for data download.

Once the file is ready, you will get an email. Access that & unzip all the attachments either into your phone's gallery or a desktop PC

That will eliminate the need to have extra space on Google Drive.

Answer:

Sir I have taken out all the photos from Google photos to my drive as the link provided by your side.it is saved in drive as zip file.hiw to unzip that moreover my drive is also showing full storage data and asked me to recharge for extra storage.please help me how to unzip my download file in drive so that I can these all photos from drive to my album

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Thanks for your reply

However, you could have downloaded the zip files on a Windows PC.

The file explorer available in Win10 doesn't need any unzipping utility. You can click on the zipped folder & view the contents directly.

Answer:

When I am going to open my download file this msg is coming.i am sending you screen shot

Answer:

Sir I have downloaded all the slit files but when I am going to save it in drive msg is showing that your storage is full can't upload any file.i am sending you screenshot.the second one is coming when I am going to open the file which I saved to drive. please check at your end and help me how to recover the photos.if I have to recharge I hve no issue but i don't want to continue the subscription for every month.

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Thanks for your reply

That's the standard option when the download size becomes large.

Click on every download button & start the download. The program will ask you where to save. Select some folder on your PC & complete that.

Answer:

Ok I am trying after that I will inform you.can I do this on my mobile na.one request sir could you please explain it step by step.first step is to open the link provided by you then 11 file has come I have to download it one and then save to my drive and download the second file and then save to my drive.like this na am j getting correct procedure.

Answer:

I just tried what you have suggested download one by one and saved to drive one by one.but when I am going to save to drive msg is popping you are out of storage.cant upload any file.i am sending you screenshot

Answer:

Hi, Parul Bharti

Thanks for your reply

I suggest you use a desktop PC & then download the content to the local drive.

Question: Free up Google Photos deleting only the photos consuming space

In 'photos.google.com/quotamanagement' I can see that Google Photos is consuming space from my 15Gb …

In 'photos.google.com/quotamanagement' I can see that Google Photos is consuming space from my 15Gb quota. Around 450 Mb.

How can I free up that space, without deleting all the photos+videos in there? I want to delete only the files consuming those 450 Mb, and nothing else.

I've done 'Recover storage' in the settings, to compress all items in original quality, but nothing changed.

I've read a lot of instructions from google support, but they are useless. Most of them just end up in google drive interface where I can not see any photos at all. Even if I could, the gdrive is not the problem.

Answer:

Hello AR3000,

There is no current method to see which photos are using storage unless they are over 5MB and appear in the Large photos section.

If you have any thoughts about these changes please reach out to Google using the feedback option--> Leave Feedback (click here to see full article)

We are advised that this feedback goes directly to the Google Photos team and is used in management reports to drive the roadmap for new or modified features. Unfortunately it is a one way process.

Answer:

Thank you for the answer. At least I won't waste more time trying to find which photos are the culprit. Unfortunately nothing appears in 'large photos/videos' section, so I guess that the files are smaller than 5MB.

I will leave feedback to google. It is a completely ridiculous situation. Between thousands of photos, I do not know which ones are wasting the storage. I would understand if GPhotos was the academic project from some student. But Google really wants to commercialize this solution as something that helps manage and organize your photos and videos.

Now- with that out of the way let's deal with Shaji Shaji 7622's post in Google Photos.

Please note that, due to a variety of reasons, not all files can be recovered - but you can try!

1. Items deleted from your photos.google.com are stored in trash for 60 days and then are Auto-Deleted from trash and can not be recovered.

2. Items deleted manually from photos.google.com/trash can not be recovered.

3. Items deleted from your YouTube Channel can not be recovered.

4. Items deleted from your Gmail are stored in trash for 30 days and then are Auto-Deleted from trash and can not be recovered.

5. Items manually deleted from Gmail trash can not be recovered.

6. Items deleted from your Google Drive will be stored in Drive Trash for 30 days and then be Auto-Deleted from Trash and can not be recovered.

1).If you are using a regular personal account

You will have to contact a Google Drive Specialist who *MAY* be able to restore it. Use this link:

https://support.google.com/drive/thread/5032072?hl=en#contact=1

2). If you use a work/student account (G Suite), you should contact your Account Admin as they can restore files up to 25 days after deletion.

My "Free up space" feature isn't working. It shows how much space i need to free up but doesn't work. When I hit the button to free up space, it's not freeing up space. I have more than enough storage space to support the transfer. This number keeps going up and it's not allowing me to free the space. I've made sure the app was updated as well.

Answer:

Hello pheny nancy,

Please review the following information in case there are any options you haven't yet tried.

1. Check your online account - photos.google.com

If your photos were successfully uploaded to your online Google Photos account they may be available there. Try visiting photos.google.com and searching for them. If you have more than on

Community Console Google Photos

2. Check the trash - photos.google.com/trash

Once you delete photos from your Google Photos account, they're moved to Trash for the next 60 days. If you deleted them by mistake you can always restore them from the Trash folder within those 60 days. Here's the link explaining how to recover them from Trash. If you have more than one Google account, check the trash for all of them.

If you accessed the Trash and manually sent the photos for permanent deletion, or if the 60 days expired, there is no way to recover them from Google Photos.

3. Review other options

if you previously used Picasa, visit picasaweb.google.com and search for your photos.
have you made any backups of the photos on your phone, camera, computer, or elsewhere?
there is a small chance that you can restore the photos using a recover deleted photos app (Android). I haven't used them myself so have no specific recommendations. There may well be more app options if you visit the appropriate app store and try other search terms. I don't see any similar apps on the iOS store, but you could check yourself.
you can contact the Google Drive support team to see if any deleted files may be recovered. Use the Google Drive contact form, click Missing or deleted files, select a contact option, and be sure to tell them you permanently deleted files in Google Drive.
If you ever shared the photos with anyone else, it's possible they may have a copy they could share back or send to you.

Thanks.

Question: Recover permanently deleted photos and videos

Recover permanently deleted photos and videos

Hi, Boga keerthi

Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.

However, once a user deletes something permanently despite a warning message or allows the content to time out in the bin, Google doesn't maintain any backup.

There is no way to get back the content through Google Photos.

Nevertheless, you may install to your Android device a deleted photo recovery app (be sure to not pick one that requires rooting) https://play.google.com/store/search?q=recover%20deleted%20photos&c=apps;

and run a scan for anything to recover.
