1) You should have one Photo App. If you don't need the storage space, ignore the duplicate. Otherwise, you could look at the dates (in Application manager) and uninstall the earlier one.

As for copying files to the SD card, ES will have to create a folder on the card, then it can copy files to that folder. The card now uses the same permissions setup as the rest of Linux - one app can't write to another app's folders. You can change that if you root the ROM and run an app like NextApp SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD (root) to make a few changes in a file for you. (It can't be done if the ROM isn't rooted.) Then anything can write anywhere on the card again.
