[Q] Removing dropbox photos / folder from gallery

[Greenarcher707]

No matter which android phone i use my gallery always shows a dropbox folder with some photos on it. I want to remove it but i can't seem to find a way how. I logged in to my dropbox account and checked out my folders, i have nothing in there. Kinda frustrating. Any ideas?

Insert a text file named ".nomedia" in the dropbox folder

That's the thing, i don't have a dropbox folder on my phone.

New version of dropbox stores data on external SD, if u have one. Check for the folder named dropbox on ur external sd.

I too have this problem, but I never knowingly did anything with dropbox

I use sugarsync for that functionality

Something I did in the past (I install and uninstall a lot of apps to test them) must have created the single picture in my folde called dropbox.

The dropbox folder seems to be related to Picasa (it has a small picasa logo bottom left)

I cannot find the image folder or anything on my device or sd card and I can't delete it - even deleting the cace and rebooting it rediscovers the file

and it turns out it was a picasa web album associated with my google account

So I could delete in picasa hooray
