Synchronize Android phone with desktop Google Drive Silver
1 min read
Hi Peter,
I had a look at your recent topics here on WTT to see if I could find anything that it might be your "first post" referred to above.
The best I could come up with is this one:

I see that no one has, of yet, responded to your topic here but I wonder if folks may not be quite clear on what you mean when you say:
I am having trouble synchronizing my phone Galaxy is my desktop Google server for Google Drive
Maybe amplifying the above might help….
any way I leave it up to you!
Sorry I can't be of any help personally on smartphones and Google drives….. too many long words for me!
Regards

Not for a smartie like you Paws.
I did get my answer; I do not sync my pc and with drive as it slows it down. however, I use Takeout weekly to back up Drive which contains my photos etc. I will delete the photos from the SD card as they are a duplication.
Thanks again for replying.
Peter
P.S. I am trying to set up Google stuff for my wife so she can jump into a Chromebook. She cannot handle Windows .

far as i'm aware peter not using google drive, if you use the same google account to login on your phone and chromebook then i think everything is automatically synchronised anyway unless you change the settings.
maybe this link will help :- https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/165139?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en

That is aan accurate referral, terry.
I, unlike many, like Chrome and the way all is synced - pcs, phones etc. It is all so easy to use.
