Does a pic shared using instant get removed from the Google + folder when deleted on the phone?

Don't think so. You can easily manage your Instant Photos on the Google+ website though. Just click on the Photos tab on your G+ page (Next to the Home looking icon). Everything that gets instantly uploaded is Private until you decide to share them. You can also manage your albums/pictures through Picasa:

https://picasaweb.google.com/home

So should there be a instant upload folder on my Picassa? There isn't.

Ok, there is now, but the pics I take aren't being uploaded to it.

Mine created one...Although its not all the pictures I used for posts. However when you click on the Photos tab in G+:



Then click on Photos on your phone:



You can easily select all with your mouse and delete/share.


I don't think it uploads to there until you decide to do so in Google+.

Hmmm, it's not uploading to the computer version. Works with the android app fine, but pics I take on my phone aren't showing up in the "Photos on your phone" section.

Did you touch the Instant Upload settings in the Mobile app by chance? It has 3 methods of uploading:

Only photos via mobile networks
Photos & videos via mobile networks
Photos & videos via Wi-Fi only

Also make sure to uncheck Battery uploads.

Not sure what went wrong, but clearing the app data seems to have fixed it. Worked immediately after I took a pic.

Log into your Gmail account then type in plus.google.com and it should take you there. If your not signed in into your gmail it will either let u join or tell you ur not allowed to view this page. Some BS Like that

About the Email Notifications, Its best to turn them ALL OFF and just use the APp on ur phone. This way if ur not signed in to the app u wont get the notifications. I turned all email notifications off

Yeah its not more a thread than it is a post where everyone can comment. We had another posting earlier but the comments went crazy and notifications were nonstop for a good while. Anyone can start another one if they like and just share it with their own Acurazine circle but I tried to make this one limited to just adding people so we don't blow up everyone's emails with notifications. Its working so far...Once the iOS app gets approved we can create a Huddle where more madness can ensue if thats your cup of tea. lol.

Well invites are still up right now. Just login to G+ on your browser (desktop) then look at the bottom right of your stream "Invite People to Join Google+" located below Start Hangout and Get Mobile app.

If that disappears, do the share post trick:

Add the person you want to add into your GMail contacts.
Add that person into a circle of your choice (preferably Friend or Family, you could always move them later on).
Create a post on your stream and make it limited to whoever you want.
Share that post to the person's email address you're trying to add.
They'll receive an e-mail and its just luck from that point.

I think right now G+ is GMail addresses only because it ties a lot of services to your Google profile/account. At least the people I've invited with non-GMail accounts haven't gone through. I'm sure they'll open it up in the future to non-GMail accounts.

Well i sent you an Invite on the yahoo one just in case, But ive seen people use different email services with Google voice so I don't see why you cant have different email service for Google+

Also if u do use Gmail and dont want spam, Just make sure to go to ur notification settings and uncheck everything there for email that you dont want sent to you
