Chrome version is up to date. I don`t see any settings pertaining to the SD card so I might try an 8 gig card & see what happens

Thanks for that. I will try it

Well, I don't know. How do I know if it's up to date? I took it out of the box and started using it 😁

When the files disappear nothing is shown in the directory for the card. The first time it happened I kicked the card out and got a message to be careful, not ejecting the card correctly can cause problems. Since that message popped up it seems the Chromebook knows there's a card there. It was...

New Chromebook user here and just picked up the HP X360 14 to replace my aging Samsung tablet. I really enjoy surfing and YouTube watching but disappointed in viewing pictures. I keep my vacation photos on an SD card and the photos are readable when I first insert the card and open the Files app...

When I got my Pixel 2 XL I was frustrated because I couldn't download images and save them to my gallery like my last phone. Then I discovered when in Chrome, long press to bring up the option to "share" then upload to "Photos". Sometimes takes a minute or two to show in all photos. I believe...

You could try VideoKit+. I use it to compress video file size to attach to email or even MMS. However not sure about the long clips and merging together. The videos I've compressed are only a few minutes long. The app UI isn't the most intuitive and I had to learn how to use it, but it does...

Thanks for the replies. I kinda figured to get the high quality resolution the pic had to be taken by the Pixel but thought I'd ask. I like to use a Sony camera on vacations and then upload to Photos and wondered if I used my Pixel to upload if I could get them saved in their original high...

I know with the Pixel Google gives free unlimited high quality uploads into Google Photos. Does the same high quality still apply if the photo isn't taken by the Pixel camera? In other words if I transfer photos taken elsewhere, then copied into my Pixel, will the uploads still be in high...

My Verizon store sold and installed a Zagg on my XL 2 when I bought it. I hated the poor touch sensitivity so started looking for something else. After reading the poor reviews for most of the glass protectors I tried a Skinomi wet application film and am satisfied with it. It doesn't feel as...

I was excited for the Pixel 2 XL release then disappointed by the reviews on the display quality. Like you I'd been reading alot of the release issues had been addressed so a few months ago when Verizon had a $300 off promotion I pulled the trigger. Mine does have the blue shift but I hardly...

I'm new to the Pixel 2 also and wondered the same thing. Try this: >open the downloads app and find the pic >tap the 3 dots in the upper right >tap share >share to Photos >the pic should now be in the photos folder in Google Photos So far this is the only way I've found to get it Google Photos...

What photo gallery app are you using if you don't use Google Photos? I like Google Photos for back up & sharing but not for all my viewing. My gripe about Google Photos is how it categorizes my pics by the date. I'd like to find a gallery app that doesn't have ads and doesn't divide all the...

Thanks for the info. I figured the older charging standards ought to be ok but didn't want to pull a bonehead move and use an older charger/cord with a USB C adapter and damage my new phone

I'm new to the Pixel & was surprised the charger required a USB C cable. I tested the Samsung Adaptive Charger my Note 5 & tablet used and my Pixel seemed to charge but not "rapidly charging". Got me wondering if using anything other than the Google charger would hurt my phone. Should I forget...
