Recover parmanently deleted Google photos

Question: Recover parmanently deleted Google photos

Recover parmanently deleted photos

Hi, Bhuvan Reddy
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
By "permanently deleted" do you mean you emptied the "Bin" in the phone app or "Trash" on the desktop?
Then that becomes an irreversible action.

Regretfully, once the Bin is emptied, there is no way to recover the pictures through google photos.
 
However, 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.

Question: Video Speed

How can I increase the speed of my video using Google photos?

Hi, Mehar Bharadwaj
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
Regrettably, the video player in Google Photos app doesn't provide any option to increase or decrease the playback speed.
You will have to look for some proprietary video player to do so.

Hi,  Mehar Bharadwaj
 
Thanks for your reply.
 
You are welcome to suggest that feature through the help & feedback route.
Once a sufficient number of users request the same feature, that may become available later on.

I have lost access to receiving any of my emails

Your storage may be filled up. You can check on https://one.google.com/storage how much storage is used by Drive, Gmail or Photos. On https://one.google.com/storage/management you can see which files use most storage.
 
Storage used by Google Photos can be recovered:
  • By deleting files in Google Photos, but there are many complaints that it takes very long before the storage is recovered, if ever. 
  • The folder "Google Photos" in Google Drive starts using storage when the corresponding photos in Google Photos are deleted. Thus when you delete from Photos you may also have to delete the Google Photos folder in https://drive.google.com/drive/my-drive if you have one.
  • By using "Recover storage" on https://photos.google.com/settings. That will convert ALL (it's all or nothing) photos/videos to the free "High Quality". Save the ones you want to keep in original size somewhere else before you use this option.
  • By deleting unsupported videos on https://photos.google.com/unsupportedvideos (or via "Settings")
  • You can also check on https://get.google.com/albumarchive. There may be photos that are not shown in Google Photos, for example from Hangouts, which may use storage. 
To recover storage used by Drive or Gmail you must delete files. Note that the "Google Photos" folder in Drive may start using storage when the corresponding photos are deleted in Google Photos. Photos uploaded using Backup and sync on a computer may use storage in the computer section of Drive when they do not make it to Google Photos as "High Quality", for example unsupported RAW files.

Question: Photo transfer

How can I transfer a folder from Google photos to my gallery?

The Gallery shows photos that are on your device. You thus must download the photos from Google Photos to a folder on your device. 
  • In the Google Photos app on the Android device you can download one at a time: open the photo, swipe upwards > tap "Download"
  • On my Android I installed "File manager +" and can share multiple selected photos with that app. Maybe also with other File Managers? Let us know if you find some. 
  • You can share multiple selected photos with Google Drive, and download them from there.
    See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H94BuHwmTB8 
  • You can go to https://photos.google.com/ on the phone, select several photos, tap 3-dots > Download. They will be saved as a ZIP file, on my device in the "Downloads" folder, where I can "extract" them. 
  • You can use https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout, but be careful: you will also get lots of .json files which you will have to delete. I recommend to try with a small album to start with.
  • You can download the photos on a computer, connect the Android phone with the computer (USB cable) and copy the photos to the device. See https://support.google.com/android/answer/9064445.
  • You can use the Google One app once to restore the 200 most recent photos.
    See https://support.google.com/photos/thread/84975423
Also note that it is not really safe to use "Free up space" without making a backup. See this article.

Answer:

Hi, thang ts telw
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
Yes, you can very well delete the app without creating any effect on the backed up pictures.
However, if you do so, you will be losing the notifications on automated creations like spotlight & memories.

Question: Restore or Remove when deleting from computer

When I delete something from my computer I always get asked "Remove item in Desktop from Google Drive? and this window (see attachment) keeps popping up for every single Item I delete. 

I have to choose RESTORE or REMOVE.. So my question is if I delete something from my computer like photos or things from my desktop does it also delete it from my google photos account as well? Because I do not want that. I really just wanna safely delete something from my computer (even if it is an shared and backed up by google photos) without it having to do with google photos, it should be already backed up there. 

So if I delete something from my computer and it stays on 
my google photos why does it always every single time ask me either to RESTORE or REMOVE? and why is it asking my that? RESTORE does that mean restore to my computer again? because I pressed that the other day afraid I was also deleting from google photos and all the things appeared back to my desktop that I deleted days ago. 

I have tried changing the settings without any luck. All I want is to be able to delete things from my computer without it deleting from google photos and without the constant notification asking me to restore or remove. 

Kind Regards
María


Answer:

The setting you're looking for is the "Removing items" setting for Google Drive in Backup and Sync. See the screenshot. If you choose Always remove, or Never remove - it will stop asking you. Note - this only affects Google Drive, NOT Google Photos. Anything uploaded to Google Photos stays there - there is no syncing.

Hi, Eva 5518
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
The "recently added" tab in the search option shows the dates on which the photos got uploaded.
Beyond that. there wouldn't be any log or history available anywhere.

Dear Art of Angling - you can only backup to one Google account at a time. That said, you can add additional accounts in the Google Photos app by tapping on the account button in upper right, tap the dropdown arrow next to your current account and choose "Add another account"

Hi, Syed Zakeer
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
Sorry to note your unhappiness about the lack of precision in face recognition.
However. the face recognition feature in the Google Photos app is still evolving.
Nevertheless, the app allows the users to correct the errors.
 
Further, many volunteers are participating in the crowdsourcing project to improve face recognition.
Your contribution to that will greatly help to improve the feature.

Question: Edited photo is lost after deleting the original

On my Google Pixel 3A bought only a few days ago, I have this problem reproducible 100%
  1. Take a photo in portrait mode
  2. Open the photo in the Google Photos app
  3. Select edit, make any change (such as "Auto" color balance)
  4. Save a copy
  5. Delete the original portrait photos (both versions - with and without depth of field)
  6. Now try to edit the copy, and notice the error message "Unable to edit Check your connection"

Rebooting the device will lead to simply loosing the copy entirely.

Answer:

Alternative symptoms: Sometimes instead, I am able to enter Edit Mode on the copy, but then I get an error popup saying "Unable to save" and "Cannot load photo".

If I try to apply any change (eg, Auto color balance), I get an infinite spinning icon


Answer:

I only can guess that the copy did not have had the chance to get backupped at Google. 
Besides: never deleted originals, but hide them in the library by archiving. 
Have no Pixel to do a comparable test. 
So wait on better comments.


Answer:

I'm already using OneDrive for backup so I don't intend to use the Google Storage (I have turned it off)

Here is the "copy" (as you can see the file did not get properly written, as its size is 0 Bytes)


Answer:

I could be wrong about this but after more testing, what seems to occur is as follows. Taking a portrait photo actually creates a folder under DCIM/Camera, and that folder will contain the "normal" version and the version with added depth of field. Any copy seems to also be created inside that same folder. The bug is probably when deleting the "original\

Answer:

The editor in Google Photos is not a local one (like in some Gallery), but fully depends on being connected with Google - so switching-off the syncing means working off-line and that will cause your problems. 

PS: be aware that the saved copy (if it would work normally) always is a compressed copy. As far as I am aware of OneDrive can't coöperate with some other online editor which retains original quality.

Hi Nizmo,

Thanks for posting in the Google Photo Community.

Unfortunately, there isn't any way where you can get only your single photos with the "me" face label option. However, we really appreciate leaving feedback for the development team as this is a best way to see new features and changes rolled out in future versions of Google Photos. If there are any other improvements or ideas you've about Google Photos, you can always leave them under Help & Feedback and they will reach the developers directly:

  1. Open the Google Photos app on a mobile device or go to photos.google.com using a computer.
  2. At the top left, touch or click the menu icon > Help & Feedback.
  3. Touch or click Feedback. You can tell us things like:
  • What you like or dislike about the app.
  • Things that are confusing or don't work.

Also, it helps us understand your feedback if you check the box to include screenshots and logs.

Alternatively, if the web pages were converted into images and placed in a Google album is there any way to link between the images (pages) in that Google Album to another Google Album? Or if all the Google Albums are combined into a single album is there any way to link between the images in a single Google Album. Thanks for any suggestions or experiences.

"Free up space" is intended to delete photos that are uploaded to Google Photos from the device. 
 
Your photos should still be at https://photos.google.com/ and shown in the Google Photos app when you are signed in to the correct account, but no longer in the Gallery or other File managers.
 
To restore photos to the phone:
Also note that it is not really safe to use "Free up space" without making a backup. See this article.

Hi, Aaron 482_
 
Welcome to Google Photos Community Support Forum & thanks for your query.
 
Before deleting your Google account, please delete or disable the Google Photos app first.
That will eliminate the possibility of any inadvertent syncing.
 
Further, once you delete the account, you will lose the access to backed up pics permanently.
If you have uploaded something through other devices. then, it would be prudent to arrange for a takeout first.
