Many are frustrated with this bug since it is preventing them from gaining access to those files on other devices. Users said they tried placing files in the folders that are to be synced but the app is not uploading them at all. Moreover, the app shows a message stating ‘Everything is up to date.’ Ever since, many have reported a bunch of issues such with the new app.Īnd now it looks like Google Drive for Desktop users are facing another issue with some saying that the app is not syncing all of their files.


The basic tier offers 15GB of free storage through Google One, with plans offering storage up to 2TB if you are willing to pay.Ī few months ago, Google pulled the switch on its Google Backup and Sync app and encouraged users to switch over to the Drive for Desktop app. The Mountain View-based company has tightly integrated Drive with other Google products such as Docs, Sheets and Slides. Launched in 2012, it also features offline capabilities on devices running Windows and macOS. Photos and videos in both accounts will stay in their respective apps and will not be deleted when the changes happen in July.Google Drive is one of the most popular cloud based documents storage solutions used by millions everyday. Those who want to auto sync items to both accounts can still do so on Windows or MacOS with Google's Backup and Sync app. In July, Google Photos users will see an "Upload from Drive" option that will let them move over photos and videos from Google Drive to their Photo account. "We've heard that many of you would like more granular control when copying photos and videos from Drive into Photos," Dan Schlosser, product manager of Google Drive, and Jason Gupta, product manager of Google Photos, said in the post. Previously, users who had images or videos on either Drive or Photos would see them show up in the other, which caused some confusion among users. Google Drive and Photos will not automatically sync photos and videos starting July 10, according to a blog post Wednesday. The search engine addressed this feedback and made some changes. For Google users, the auto sync of photos and videos with Google Drive and Google Photos was not ideal.
