  Photos "sync pending"
Posted by: allblack - 10-07-2025, 06:10 PM - Forum: PC World Chat - Replies (6)

I've lost the plot and run out of bad language, so trying here. 

I took photos on my phone, I then uploaded them to that hateful Onedrive, and then I downloaded them to my PC so I had copies on that.

Then I moved them from the Downloads folder to the Pictures folder under Desktop. Yesterday.

Tonight I went to add a photo to my desktop and they didn't show in the Pictures folder, but when I access the Pictures folder thru Explorer they show with circling blue arrows and the notation 'sync pending'.

I Googled, without any luck. Apparently they 'take time' to sync with Onedrive, but why do they need to 'sync' if I've downloaded them??? As far as I'm concerned if I've downloaded them from Onedrive then Onedrive can f*** off!

Any ideas people? How can my photos be independent of Onedrive on my PC?

Thanks.

  Racist idiots attack flags
Posted by: Lilith7 - 10-07-2025, 03:50 PM - Forum: News and Current Affairs - Replies (2)

No shortage of idiots - how the devil is flying flags hurting anyone fgs. Dodgy

Ngati Tukorehe will fly more flags after racists damaged those flying on a marae.
They were originally set up to support the opposition march to parliament against ACT's treaty principles bill.

  Transferring music from PC folder to Android Phone
Posted by: Pato - 10-07-2025, 12:29 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (3)

I need some help with what I thought would be an easy task, but it is straining my old brain.

I had my music on a memory stick which I put into a folder on my PC. I want to transfer this music onto my Samsung A16+ phone.

I have connected my phone to the PC via a USB cable, but this only showed the drive of my phone and nothing else.

With the help of Google, I eventually enabled "Transferring Files" via Developer Options but I am no further ahead.

Can someone suggest where I may be going wrong please.?

  Unemployed people to be used in flood clean up
Posted by: Lilith7 - 09-07-2025, 05:09 PM - Forum: News and Current Affairs - Replies (7)

On one hand, it makes some sense to get those who haven't a job to help clean up the mess, but on the other hand it does have a faint whiff of 'the poor must be made to work'.

And you have to hope they'll check that anyone involved is in good health & able to help.

  Home owners shouldn't expect buy outs in future
Posted by: Lilith7 - 09-07-2025, 12:10 PM - Forum: News and Current Affairs - Replies (7)

According to 'experts', home owners shouldn't get buyouts due to climate change. So those whose homes are  flooded out or damaged by weather events shouldn't expect help in future.

The group says individuals should be responsible for knowing the risks, & suggested a transition period of 20 years.

And there's been 'a significant rise' in home insurance. That may mean that in future, most may be unable to afford home insurance.

  David Seymour's hypocrisy over drugs & poverty
Posted by: Lilith7 - 07-07-2025, 03:46 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (11)

David Seymour wants more spending on pharmaceuticals like Wegovy because of the benefits to society, but isn't so keen on other forms of spending. 

Like child poverty. 

Despite big welfare funding increases showing that it leads to a noticeable drop in kids going hungry.
