[Closed] Chromebook - "you will not be able to send or receive emails"

hope i havent bored you to death with this as the answers seem to have dried up 🙂

1,2,3,4 ^^^ still 'open to answers' 😀

added to that now is something else i dont understand. i spent quite a while yesterday deleting about 1000 whatsapp pics from my chromebooks 'google photos'.
but, theyre all still in my phones 'google photos'! also my phone is set to [b]not[/b] save whatsapp pics. why are they still there?

any idea why my chromebook and phone dont show the same pics? if i delete from one shouldnt it delete from the other?

thanks

I don't know mate - I am only guessing, I don't use any of this software 🙂

Although in my experience these drive thingies seem to hide their data in different places. I think in OneDrive when you go to it in your browser, it's not in the root of the whole thing - it's in the root of your file area. There's another layer above that, from which you can get to the places that would normally be hidden, like your camera and phone backup etc.

thanks for the answer, but dont really understand it, spose thats the problem tho 🙂

ive [i]sort of[/i] discovered why my 'data used' didnt go down when i deleted the big folder. it went into the bin, which still counted as data 🙂 so i had to empty bin too. now its a manageable 9Gb used which means ill be able to use my gmail now 🙂
what it doesnt explain tho is why a 100Gb folder only knocks my data used down to 9Gb from 21Gb. ah well, not worth losing sleep over, dont think ill ever understand it.

thanks

I didn't know about the photo search thing, that is amazing. Going to bulk upload all of my pictures now.

I typed in BMW out of interest and it came up with a load of pictures with BM's just in the fore/background, even one where you could only see half a wheel and a door.
