To answer your question, I would have to first download a photo to my phone, or take a new picture and move it to my phone itself, but I cannot get that far without first creating the new folder on the SD card (per storage sense settings).

If I am too late, "Pictures 1" will contain all my photos once sync is complete (overnight). The fix is to use my WP OneDrive app to move the rogue folder to "Pictures" as soon as it is created. I have "storage sense" set to "SD card" for "where to store your music, photos, apps, and more", which as noted in my post above, could be part of the problem since that is when "Pictures 1" starts to propagate. There are zero pictures on my phone itself. Do all this and things do not work as designed.Īnyone had this experience? I can correct it by moving all the folders back and renaming or deleting the duplicates, but I know it will happen again if I use my phone camera the way its meant to be used. Oh yeah, and I'm running the WP Developer Preview now. I suspect this has something to do with a bug in either "camera sync" settings or "save to SD card" settings not being cosmically aligned, plus the fact that my user folders (Contacts, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos) have had their "location" changed to be in OneDrive. Needless to say, this totally fubars any links or libraries or backup scripts I have in place. My "Pictures" folder on the SP2 will start replicating into a "Pictures1" folder, sometimes its entirety, but usually it moves all 24gb of photos and videos into "Pictures1" and leaves "Camera Roll" (or Saved pictures" or "Mobile uploads", depending on what I did) all by itself in a "Pictures" folder. However, if I dare use my Lumia to manually upload a photo, or use OneDrive to manually download a photo, all hell breaks lose. My OneDrive, all 95gb of it, will sync flawlessly between the cloud and my Surface Pro 2, Surface 2 (no music), and Lumia 620 (Camera Roll). And I'm not the only one, this issue has persisted through the 8 to 8.1 upgrades and the SkyDrive to OneDrive evolution, and the intro of the Developer Preview. I have had this issue posted in useless Microsoft Community for over a year now, and have yet to resolve it.
