S9+ keeps deleting downloaded pictures - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Anyone have any idea why downloaded pictures keep disappearing from my gallery? I downloaded a bunch of pictures (about 80) from different emails and organized them into different folders. After about a day the majority of the pics and folders are gone. It doesn't delete everything but randomly deletes the majority of them. This only affects downloaded pictures and not the ones I took with the phone, and this is the internal storage, not an sd card.

[Q] Gallery app without folder groupings

Dear all,
I am looking for a gallery app with the option to display all photos on my android without being grouped into folders, so they display all at once.
I have a couple of camera apps which store photos in their own separate folders, and it's becoming a bit of a mess. Of course I could move all photos (and downloaded pictures) into one folder, but I would need to be doing this regularly.
Any ideas?
Cheers
gallery... all photos...
or get quickpic and add all the folders and none of the junk ones.
Thanks, but that's not quite what I meant.
I want the any gallery app which will display ALL of the photos/images on the sd card without having me choose a folder first.

[Q] Gallery Subfolders?

Is there a way to get the gallery to not display all subfolders or another app that can? I have several hundred wedding pictures I moved to my SD card in about 10 subfolders all under one folder called Wedding Pictures. When I open the gallery I can see all the subfolders, I would like to just see the main folder at first. I also tried Quickpic, that isn't displaying properly either.

Pictures – Music – Sync Kies ???

Hi All,
I have a few questions about pictures and music
Pictures
I use Kies and have selected some pictures to sync to my device from the PC. Nice and easy it upload the pictures stored on the computer.
However when viewing on the handheld the pictures are not in the folders that where on my PC. They are all together or separated by date. Is there a way that I can keep all the pictures in the separate folders just like on my PC. For example Xmas 2009 – Peters Birthday 2010 which contain the relevant pictures?
If I then change my mind and I don’t want those pictures on my device I could remove via Kies. I selected the folders on the Kies menu and removed the check box. Let the computer sync but found that the pictures where still on my device. Does Kies not work like this? In the end I had to go onto my phone via the PC sync cable and manually remove the pictures.
I take pictures with my phone all the time and like to locally store a copy. I used the Kies export method but that removes all the pictures you but on the phone from the PC as well!!!!
Is there a way to export the pictures from your device that are not on your computer already?
Google + / Picaso
Is it possible to also store a local copy of pictures taken to the external SD card and upload to google +?
Music
This one is a bit of a mind blower for me.
So I sync music via Kies onto my phone which is set up to store to the external memory first. The songs find their way onto the SD card but not in the album folders! And the phone does not see the music folders on the SD card.
So what I have to do it manually drag and drop the folders / Albums onto the internal memory of the phone and all is fine.
Do I have something set up wrong?
Thanks
Mat
Something else to add to my list of questions in my contacts each contact has a face picture (which I know you can customise). However they are all different colours is there any reason for this?

[Q] Mystery Media Files

According to Titanium BackUp, I've got 1.5 GB of media files that I can't account for. Some might be the dozen or so ringtones and notification files I have (in mp3 format). Some might be my GMail account, but I can't find where on the internal storage drive the GMail files might be to verify this (and maybe do some creation deletions or re-directs). I've wiped out all my photos after transferring them to Dropbox, except for my wallpaper. Texts are routinely deleted, so that's not it.
I have the Samsung Galaxy Blaze, and if this needs to be re-directed, please do. The phone was successfully rooted, but my memory issues still stand (argh) in spite of the deletion of numerous bloatware programs and pushing most, if not all, of my user apps to the SD card.
Any help and/or thoughts would be appreciated.

Where are my photos?

Galaxy S9+
Some photos does not appear in Gallery app, but in My Files app, when I open the camera folder all photos are there.
Any Ideas?
It will be in dcim directory either on phone or memory card, depending on your settings you choose. I did pick up that depending on what type of photos/vidoes/ar etc is taken, will depend where it stores the pics etc...not everything is stored in dcim anymore
Check to see if they are in your secure folders app.
