I currently have G+ to sync photos. In my gallery, every photo syncs just fine except for the Instant Upload folder.
In the G+ app, under photos - Instant Upload album displays the images just fine.
In short, gallery shows Instant Upload as a blank folder but G+ shows it full of pictures.
Anyone know why?

Hi everybody,
Wondering if anyone know how can I make Picasa Integration on my Atrix?
I was badly surprised not to see that out of the box. Not what you expect to see from Motorola.
Thanks

If you set up a picasa account you will be able to upload to a picasa album (menu --> settings --> accounts --> add account).
You can also google "nexus one gallery apk" and you should be able to easily find the apk for this app. You will need to either root your phone or use sideload wonder machine to install. Once installed it will show all of your albums in picasa.
I just found the answer to this. Look on the Market for an app called (not surprisingly) "Gallery" with the normal Froyo Gallery icon.
As soon as you install it it will ask to use your Picasa credentials to connect to Picasa and voila - you now have local and Picasa pictures in your 3D Gallery just like native Froyo.
Hope this helps.
Thanks, upload action worked but still no Picasa integration in photo gallery.
Wrote a complain to Motorola still waiting for respond.
Thanks

Yeah, but this one is definitely better......

uses the Cooliris skin that the Captivate had and works great to display Picasa galleries - just looked this up earlier because I wondered where my Picasa folders went on the gallery EVEN THOUGH the stupid Moto Blur account listings has my Picasa account sync'd! FOR WHAT if you're not going to display the folders in the gallery???
When opening the Gallery receive the information "Failed to Download list of Albums".
The error occurred after the last update. Factory reset didn't help. Anyone have this problem?
Don't worry, I get it also. Seems to not really mean anything as the albums still load up with no problem. Also if you press refresh it'll say the same thing. Just a s/w bug.
Seems to happen to more people running 4.0.3. (search the forum)
And my albums are not loading
It has also been reported as an issue to the android code project on google.
Issue #24588
Hope this will be fixed soon

If your albums won't load, just use Quick Pic album from marketplace. It's a free app. Its good and will work for you till this bug is fixed. Seems like a problem across all devices with latest ICS version.
You probably have Picasa web album sync disabled in your settings. Enable it and you will not get that message but you will then download any photo you have in your Picasa web album, including your Google+ profile picture... The setting is located settings>accounts and sync>your Gmail account

Actually I do have sync enabled, as I want to have my albums synced from the web. Perhaps disabling will help.
Hey,
i uploaded all my photos to picasa webalbums. they show up in the android 4 gallery as well, thats fine. but also there are many "albums" named just like "6/5/12" with one or two photos i shared on this day on google+. can i get rid of them without deleting them? maybe combining all those google+-share-albums into one? they wont show up on picasaweb.google.com :/
cheers, olli
Is it only me or ...
With "Sync Google Photos" and Sync Picassa Web Albums" activated I still cant sync my camera pictures with google+....
And the only way to make it work is to install Google+ app but then you can see picture twice in Gallery ... (one under camera pictures and the other under Instant upload folder....)
Help would be really appreciated....
What I did so far :
reset phone settings,
wipe dalvik
tried to sync with another account
tried over wifi
Sync report ok.... I have no clue !!!!
Thats how mine is. I just delete the camera photos after they sync.
Google + just uses the instant upload to put them in your private web folder. Having the sync enabled allows the phone to download those photos from your web albums and allows you to manually upload when you want. I dont think its for auto uploading like google +

So basically you mean that there is no way to sync camera photos without using Google+ app ?
I thought I could with my previous Galaxy Note... I dont understand what the "Sync Google photo" is for then....

As far as I know, not automatically. You can always go to the gallery, hold the camera folder and sync the whole album manually to wherever you want.
the link is broken on the google support site, but it use to read this:
Android 4.0 devices have a system setting that allows you to Sync Google Photos.
This setting enables syncing of your Google Photos from your web albums to your device's Gallery app. As a result, if you have a large number of photos in your web albums that have been uploaded through Picasa Web Albums or Google+, you may notice a high amount of battery or data usage during this sync.
This setting also enables or disables sync for Instant Uploads to Google+. However, to enable Instant Upload, you must enable Sync Google Photos as well as enable Instant Upload within the Google+ app

I am having trouble with background data usage from the 'Gallery' app. I think it is related to videos uploading when I'm off of wifi. In settings / accounts / gmail - I had instant upload on, and then in G+ I had to sync photos and videos only when on wifi and only when charging, but it's still using network data to background sync... and I have droidwall installed and 'gallery' is not one of the apps I white listed for network data.
Any ideas? for now I turned off background data since it didn't seem to affect any regular use of the phone and it does block the gallery app. Seems like there are quite a few options in the gmail accounts as far as photos go so not sure what they all do or what I should bother with. I do know that on my SGS, SGS2 this background usage wasn't happening and I had things setup then like I do now.
Does anyone know how to get albums that are on Google+ to show up in the gallery? I have Google Photos checked to sync, I'm logged into Google+, but when I go to the gallery I get a folder called "My Phone", and I don't see my online galleries anywhere. I can add online galleries from facebook, flikr, and dropbox though.
If there is no way to, can anyone recommend a third party gallery app that has this?

i think that you have to have picasa, the sync feature in google+ is for photos to be uploaded as opposed to downloaded to your gallery.
I didn't have an option for Picasa, but I found that if I download the app "Picasa Tool", it lets me view my Google+ albums and I can share it from within there.
