Share option stuck on Google+

When I cruise Facebook and I want to share a photo, it brings up the google+ share page. So when I click on the picture, hit the overflow menu, share, it comes right up with the Google+ share tab. It doesn't give me an option to what social media to share with. I have tried clearing the default in the g+ app but it is greyed out. I did clear cache and data. I cleared default, cache and data in Facebook but nothing helps. If I try to share a photo from g+ it gives me all the options. I don't know where to go now. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Something weird has happened

I need clarification--are you trying to share a photo you saw on Facebook to some other social network, or are you trying to share a photo that is stored locally on your phone to Facebook?

Re: Something weird has happened

I am trying to share from Facebook to Facebook. I don't like using the share button on the post itself because it has the other persons name.

Re: Something weird has happened

Ok, so you're on Facebook, you come across a picture in a post that you want to share. You tap the picture so that it fills the screen. When you tap the 3-vertical-dot menu button, and then press "Share," you're saying that all you get is the option to share via Google+? I get a whole list of Share options, including Facebook.

Re: Something weird has happened

Hmm. I'm stumped. I'm using a Nexus 5, so it's not directly comparable. Hopefully someone else with an Ultra or a Maxx can give us their perspective.

One other thing to try is to uninstall Facebook, then reinstall it (or, if it's preinstalled, then uninstall all updates, then update it again).

Re: Something weird has happened

I forgot to ask--do you recall ever being able to share Facebook photos to other social networks on your phone? Is this a new occurrence?

Re: Something weird has happened

I've noticed the same issue trying to share from Chrome, Chrome Beta, and YouTube. I've cleared all my app launch defaults but that hasn't changed anything. I like sharing web pages to Google Keep so I can read them later but this has kept me from doing that lately.

Re: Something weird has happened

When I hit the 3 button menu button, I get the small white menu that has "share" and when I tap share I get the following list of options:

Do you not get this? Oh, and I do have the Ultra.

Well...I'm editing myself. I went back and looked at your post more carefully and it appears you don't get this list of options. Wish I knew why.

Fixed. The google+ team helped.

"Settings, Apps, All Apps, tap the Menu Tab, Clear App Preferences. Hope this works...

Happens to me. I get stuck only sending to Gmail. This is what I do..."

Worked great. What is does is enables all the disabled apps. I must have disabled one that I shouldn't have.

Re: Something weird has happened

Hello,
I had a similiar issue . I was only able to share apps in the app Play store to Facebook. I did what you did and Reset App Preferences and now i get the complete drop-down list ( same as in WestieMom's Post Above) with all Share Options.

Thanks
:cool:
