Portable Photo Album Software on microSD card? - General Topics

Just curious. Since you are able to connect phone to computer and treat SD card as an external drive. Wouldn't it be possible to install some sort of photo album software on the phone to execute from windows?
I hate organizing my photos, I'd like to keep them contained in one spot. I don't take many pictures but I hate trying to organize my albums into folders manually.
What software would everyone suggest as well for a simple photo album manger?

Anything? what about picasa or something?

[Q] Multiformat e-reader app

Im getting really tired of dicking around with converting to epub... are there any apps that will render a majority of ebook formats?
Ideally quality apps.
I use Aldiko App and Calibre on the PC. Not sure this is what your looking for. Calibre manages you library and converts all your books to any format all at one time and I thought Aldiko used more than one format but I'm probably wrong. I converted all my books to the same format a long time ago and I use Aldiko to read them. Maybe one of these will help you out or lead you to something that will.
I use this one. Its pretty good and it's free

Also Ireader is very good (get it on the market), both the free version, and the paying one. With the paying one you can also read locked mobibook format. Its excellent.

Is there a way to use the external memory card with Aldiko?
I just started playing with it so maybe I missed the setting but it seems that it only sees the internal SD.
Otherwise it is a nice reader
Cheers
I don't have a tab yet so I'm not sure about the internal/external card. I know that on my HTC Aria, all the books are stored on my external SD card. I have several hundred books on there now. I used Calibre on my PC to re-code them all to one format and the program auto pushed them to my SD card. I used this guide to get started.

Then I went to www.aldiko.com/ to figure out the app.
Hope this helps
When you install Aldiko it makes a folder on the SD card called Ebooks. Inside that folder is one called import. Make sure you push new books to the import folder. then inside Aldiko hit the minu button and select import. Then it will add new books to your library.
I use a mix of:
eBook (Samsung bundled app)
Aldiko
FBReader
Kindle
Kobo
...and for comic books:
jjComics Viewer
ACV
...and for audio books / podcasts:
AudioBooks
TuneIn Radio
ACast

I recommend FullReader. It supports not only ePub files but also opens many other formats.

Local/online storage?

Is it possible to create an app or a mod or something that will make the phone recognise online storage as local storage?
As in, I have comic, music and photo files I would like to view on my phone, but apps such as HTC music and other third party apps only see local files on the SD card. Is there something i can do to make apps believe my online storage such as dropbox is local so i can essentially "stream" or view them as if they were on my SD card? I know ES file browser can access my dropbox, but can i get this idea implemented system-wide?
I hope you guys know what i'm talking about/asking.
Thanks!

Hmm I'm sure you can stream music/ look at photos/ watch videos etc. on the official Dropbox app itself?
If you get a HTC Sense 4.0 ROM (ViperS etc.) you can go to the gallery and select Dropbox, Skydrive and so on, in the drop down menu where it says "Albums".
I think not - because it needs constant internet connection and two (online/local) will not work well together.
Thanks for your replies.

iPhoto and Nexus 5

Guys, can anyone recommend the best software to transfer photos to and from the Nexus 5 and iPhoto on a Mac?
I have DoubleTwist, but that software can only transfer photos TO iPhoto not from it. I want to be able to transfer albums from my iPhoto to my N5.
So far it seems a nigh on impossible task.
Also, music to and from iTunes is also nigh on impossible.
Finder, Android file transfer....

Android File Transfer is a pain as you have to figure out what photo's you have already transferred over.
I was hoping for more of an iPhoto style app that automatically picks up new photo's to transfer over.

I would probably just transfer them manually using whatever Apple's default file explorer is. Or you could turn on Cloud syncing, then just pull the new photos down manually from the cloud on your Mac if you wanted. Easiest would be manual transfer IMO. Drag and drop them.
Use Google+ as a cloud storage for your photos. They will automatically show up in your stock gallery and wont take up space on your device.

Transfer whole albums to PC

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to transfer whole albums from my android phone (LG G4) to my Windows PC. I use Google Photos as my app for managing images and creating albums within the app, but when I connect my phone to my PC via usb, I no longer see the albums but all the images mixed up. I figured there must be an app (diferent to google photos) which will allow me to do this. Do you know any? Or any other way to do this?
Thank you!
I just use seperate folders and Syncthing, it's open source too and works really well

Backup Photos & Keeping own Album Folder structure intact

I currently use Plex to manage all of my photo Albums and a lot of time has been spent organizing and naming albums they way I like. I'm wanting to backup up all these photos online to be able to share them easier with friends & family. Currently I tried backup up to Google Photos and Amazon Photos. In neither case does my album folder structure carry over. I have no desire to re-create all of these albums either. I had to upload my photos via the web for both since their apps do not support networked drives
Is there another service that would allow me to accomplish this? Or maybe another way to upload them and keep all my photo albums as-is?
