Missing Pictures

Anyone else having an issue where when you take a few pictures, they aren't loaded into Media App? I have to force it to rescan the Storage Media to get the pictures to be seen in Media, I can view them in the Camera app but not the Media.
Just curious.

Make sure you don't have a nomedia file listed in your folder structure. Some how some way I put that file in mine and I couldn't see pictures any more. I think I was tinkering around and forgot about it. LOL

[Q] all my pictures are gone!

Hey guys,
Woke up this morning and all my camera taken pics are gone! They gallery opens up and there are folders listed with downloaded and sample photos, but no camera photos. Not even the "camera" folder was there. I just took a picture now and it created the camera folder and there is only the one picture in there that I just took. I had like 350-400 pics on there and poof they are gone.
Any ideas?
Anybody know the path on the SD card of where the pics are stored?
Thanks.

/sdcard/DCIM/Camera is where my pics are stored anyways.
I remember in my days with my Moment my gallery used to not always load the images. I would delete the directory /sdcard/Android/data/com.cooliris.media and then it would force the gallery to search the sdcard again to index all the pics. No idea if that's the approved process or if it works on the Epic (mainly cause I haven't had the issue), but it used to do the trick.

Search the market for Rescan Media. Useful tool to force a rescan for the gallery.

Un-mount and remount sd card should be ok

I can navigate the sd card anf the DCIM folder is ther, but empty. I unmounted and restarted the phone with a battery pull too, nothing. Ill try rescan media later. I just found out my lookout mobile app was also not set to back up pics

[Q] Where do photos get saved on the Play?

Ok today was the first time i used the camera app on my play. I took some photos but now i want to actually access the files without sharing them via facebook or email but i cannot find them anywhere on the sd card or on the main memory. My phone is rooted. The only way i can access the photos is by clicking on media and viewing them that way. Does anyobe know where photos are saved(the directory location) thanks is advance.

There should be a folder on the sd card called DCIM they are in there

[Q] Pictures in memory card

Hi,
I have 16GB memory card. I have used it previously on my Galaxy s3 and now using it on Galaxy s4 i9505.
In the Gallery, i can not see pictures from the memory card and when I changed the location of taking new pictures To Memory Card, it did show pictures for few weeks but then all of a sudden it doesn't show any picture from the memory card in Gallery. However, when i use File Manager, the pictures are really present in the memory card.
What can i do to solve this problem?

1 Make sure there is no .nomedia file in your pics folder
2 make sure that you are viewing all the pictures from galary and not of one particular album.
3 try a different gallery like quicpic
A screenshot of your gallery will help us understand the problem better
