I would like to compliment you on this extremely informative and easy to follow video! You have enlightened me no end! I followed your instructions step by step. I had already recuperated storage by doing my own thing but this video REALLY enabled me to clear up even more space! Awesome stuff. Even for a silver surfer this was soooo easy to follow! I shall be passing this video onto others. Thanks so very much.
I always learn something new with your videos. The other thing you want to delete in GMAIL is Spam which also counts towards your storage. And, as I understand it, ALL MAIL doesn't just include your archived mail but it includes your inbox and everything else. It is a way to access your archived items but it includes everything.
Ya you have to be very careful with this, as I just tested it and if you delete from Inbox it is gone in All Mail, and if you delete in All Mail it is gone in Inbox (and both test emails ended up in the Trash); All Mail doesn't really seem to be a back-up of everything (or Archive as he calls it), they are live interlinked.
I use free extra storage from another Gmail account. I have a 'main' Gmail account and several 'secondary" Gmail accounts I mainly use for shopping or other activities like Facebook etc. I dont want them bothering me with e-mails on my main Gmail account. In each of those secondary accounts I have created a shared folder with full rights given to my main account. These folders will show up in my main account as shared folders. That's 15G extra storage from each account! While this may not be convenient for email storage or photos uploaded from your phone, it works very well for uploaded files from your computer like pdf's, spreadsheets and presentations etc.
Would like to see a video on how exactly you do this. Why is the extra 15BG of storage no good for photos? Can you not use your secondary email accounts like your primary account and have the 15GB cover all 3 google services ie Gmail, Drive and Photos? Would love hear back from you.
My personal suggestion for "duplicates", which are most often multiple shots of the same thing, is to go through them IMMEDIATELY and delete all bar those you actually want to keep! It's a minor pain - caused by the luxury of being able to take so many "free" shots whenever you want - but it's WAY EASIER then going through several thousand later on down the road.... Especially when other people might have disagreed with your selection of what counts as "the best One"!!
Wife and I copy photos, "share", to a Drive "work on this" folder. Then we delete from phone. Then we d/l to desktop computer to decide what we want to keep. Then we clean out Drive folder.
Love your videos! Just found you yesterday and am loving your personality, humor, and great content! Heart is with you re losing your fur baby. I totally get the terrible loss 🥰 looking forward to your future vids! 🙏🏻
Excellent, very helpful video! I took the bait and bought their cheapest paid plan for storage but it doesn't always have to stay that way. It works out to $19 a year for 100 GB of storage.
I have been following your invaluable suggestions for years. you are an excellent communicator and teacher. In my case I have accumulated way too many old Gmails. I copy and paste an email address of a frequent emailer in search and get hundreds of the same sender and delete them 100 at the time. Time consuming but worth it.
As usual, outstanding information, clearly laid out. I had to play with Takeout last year and did not find it enjoyable. Could not find good instruction like this and then my computer crashed in the middle of the process of storing 12GB onto a portable hard drive. Good thing we were in lock down in that case, gave me time to deal. I sure needed it...
Thanks You Very Much. That will help me a lot. Am a 64 young trying to learn this management to alleviate worries. I agree with you , is not conspiracy theory, is a business strategies. Free? Somehow they have some benefit= business. Great explanation!
Thank you. I really needed to know that downloading my data is easier than I thought and not worth continuing to procrastinate saving onto an external hard drive.
Thanks, Steve. I spent nothing for 100 GB of storage. Nothing because Google has a survey app that "pays" you for answering questions. I had over $26 in credit, so the $20 came out of that. As you yourself pointed out, it is a time trade off. Pay a small amount or pay with my precious time. A no brainer for me. But you didn't mention what also comes with paying for Google One. You get phone/chat/email support on all Google products. This alone is worth it. I had a couple nagging issues and was able to get an answer. Second, you get a few additional editing functions in Google Photos.
I am in exactly the position you mentioned regarding lack of storage. This was very helpful as I shall do "selective backups" to an external HDD. You talk about "backing up" and "downloading" which is slightly confusing. I want to download a COPY (backup) of photos, emails, etc. to an external HDD but obviously, I want my ORIGINAL data to remain on the Google Server ; otherwise this would be "exporting" data...?
Google One is the company brand for AdWords platforms. It is a global search engine optimisation tool created by Google. It helps advertisers target their ads and to improve performance with bots for automated ad-serving. It has something integral that makes it hard to uninstall from your life forever. Google also offers Ads Manager which is quite useful when you work with multiple ad accounts on different platforms, databases and usage types (ie artificial intelligence? ), data silos and synonyms rules, etc . Thanks for your video, dottotech
It's important to guide users through each option, as you've done, but also provide a complete example of each action, such as how to delete, compress, or save to other storage devices/apps. The issue often overlooked in help videos is the technology-challenged older generation or computer novices who are unfamiliar with the terminology. These individuals are the ones targeted by companies like Google, which may charge for simple solutions that could be resolved for free with the right knowledge and understanding of the internet and computers. These non-tech-savvy individuals may not understand what they are being instructed to do, so physically showing them in your videos exactly how to perform each option would be far more beneficial.
Hi this is very helpful, thanks !Could you please explain what happens if you do all the recommended steps if your app are synced and how prevent changes on all apps at once
Your video is very helpful. Please include some info for download format. when i have downloaded zip for photos it is in .jpg.json format. Some question why we need .jpg.json format, many more. Can you please address this kind of questions. Thank.
Thank you I've done probably 8090% of what you talked about but Google's making it tough for me to move my stuff to an SD card and we didn't talk about that. I'm 15 and 15 right now as far as storage so in my memory's way down also but I've got a huge SD card with all kinds of room and they're making it difficult for me to switch it over thank you. I also agree with what you sort of mentioned about a conspiracy theory and sometimes I feel like I'm being strong armed by Google thugs. 😒😎
Google Photos does remove duplicate photos, exact duplicate photos. This was good for me since I used to backup to multiple locations so consolidating them was space taxing, due to the multiple copies of the same photo. So when in doubt I just keep uploading the photos to Google Drive. If it's already in my library then it just won't accept the upload. My take on why they don't filter out photos that are very similar: it's for training their face recognition AIs. For my account the face recognition has issues differentiating the faces of my toddler from those of my friends.
Great video. I did Google Takeout; how do I delete the voice calls from my google account? Example there is a folder called voice. I do not want google to have this anymore.
Brilliant dude, can you suggest a local drive (maybe a few terabytes) to use. I have an old one 1 terabyte usb conn, but should prob get bigger. I do have a yt channel hence lots of vid clips & finished videos. Second question is how to download/backup my channel? Thx. :)
Thank you for the insights. Im new to google photos hence just did a full backup and sync from my iPhone to google photos. I use to backup all old photos into dropbox using folders into google photos albums. Post migrated to google photos, I see many duplicated photos (some from iPhone camera roll and some from dropbox), is there a systematic way to delete those duplicated photos?
This off your current topic, ie. storage but, I have looked and have yet to find "how to navigate a route in Google Maps that I saved offline on my iPhone. Everyone show the saving of maps but no one that I have found yet goes on to show how to use that map and or to navigate a route that I may have saved in anticipation of not having cellular service.
Hi Steve thank you very much for this very informative video. Question: when we save our google photos in google photo albums, does creating albums and organizing photos that way takes more space in your google storage as opposed to saving it loose (chronologically)? Thank you.
No it does not. It just adds labels to the photos. It does not duplicate the photos. There might be a minute increase related to the metadata but not worth worrying about.
@@dottotech Hi Steve! Please help me make sure I understand this cause it doesn't make sense to me: Deleting photos permanently (trash bin empty and all) does not free up space? So, if I have 2,000 photos that take up 10 GB, and I delete 1,900 of those photos, Google won't free up the space, unless I authorize them to reduce quality for ALL the files?? I've been struggling with these for weeks, Ive deleted thousands of photos, emptied the trash, and apparently the only solution for keeping original photo quality is to pay a subscription??!!! Is it even legal to claim they give you 15GB of storage that only goes up, but never goes down??
Thankyou great easy to understand video my photos and Google Drive are what I'm after not just to add more space to Google storage .but to delete files from my phone. Hopefully it will all work as intended. I definitely won't delete anything till I verify the photos and files are accessible.
My concern with downloading images from Google Photos down to my HD is that image creation date might change ? I downloaded a few and it seems the process changed the creation date. Any comments or suggestions ? What am I doing wrong ? Thanks all
the best thing is buy a big hard drive and save your photos and you need to keep buying hard drives of one fails you will all ways have your photos but online your photos a friend of mine said he saw his family photos and other familys if you type in family photos in your area they show up and even if your not login or now not a good idea online
Me: “I should check my Google Drive storage.” Google Drive: “Unlimited.” Gotta love Google Business… or G-Suite… or whatever the new name Google calls it as of today.
Hi there, I liked your video but what happens after you receive download link in your email for the takeout. I have received my email and downloaded all the takeout info onto my comp but my Google Storage has not increased. Are we supposed now go into Google Photos and DELETE all the photos??
I've noticed that when you're on Google Photos and you try to delete more then 500 photos at once, web app in browser just does nothing at that point. And on a phone, sometimes it does delete them, sometime it doesn't. Weird stuff.
Steve. In Google storage you said third party files do not count as storage. I have two Gmail accounts with 15G/6TB space. Why not pull all my files to the 6TB account and share these files with the 15G account without penalty?
I had a problem with using Takeout for backing up my mail. It downloaded, but I need another application to open the file. Did I miss something? (Saving the photos to an external drive worked very well.)
Sir , I have a habit of login out of my Gmail account after I have checked my emails on my laptop . The flip side of that is that if I have to login to Google drive I have to login again .my simple question to you is that is it safe to just close the window when I am operating Gmail ,without login out
If you're getting the storage message in your email, but you instead move photos out of Google photos, will that eliminate the "running out of storage" message?
Hello, I have a question and I will be very happy if you give me an answer, the people who sent me an email when my memory was full, I did not receive their email because there was no memory. But now when I've bought a memory, will I get those emails or do they have to send them again?
Are HDD immortal? I have lot of stuff in Google Drive and although storage is not an issue because I pay for it, there is lot of data that just doesn't need to be in there. If external HDD can safely and perpetually store the files and folders I can get them out of Google Drive and in the process save up some space for future.
If i plug google phone into my PC and cut and paste photos from my phone onto PC to free up space on phone will these also be removed from Google Photos to free up some space of 15GB allowance? 🤔
~9:56 Ah.. .Shakespeare: "fell swoop": The phrase has been attributed to Shakespeare's use of the image of a hawk swooping to murder Macduff's family (Macbeth 4:3). In that instance, it meant collectively, quickly and cruelly. Modern use of the phrase seems to have removed the "cruelty" element. 😉 M
@@stephenhedge2489 Funny you'd mention that! In Canada, we kind of say "fal" as in the name "Val"...maybe we don't know where it comes from, so we just say it fast and hope no one notices that we're not sure whether or not is "fowl", "fall", "foul", "fell" or, well, the list goes on! 😁 I've looked it up, now, and another source also quotes Shakespeare's lines from Mcduff and goes on to say that the "fell" part comes from the idea of a "wicked felon"... I asked my 92-year-old Mum and she says "they" always pronounced it "fowl swoop", "like a bird swooping to get its prey"...she's right on point with William. M
@@dottotech And so much that you say that you know just about everything about! I always love seeing where our every-day idioms originally came from. Thanks, Steve; another awesome job! M
If only google would make it easyer to select many photos at once like a list view of files ! Its a pain to selecf them all when you have thousands of them.

Wow! I got 200 GB of storage back, just by compressing my photos. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I don't think even Google knows more than this guy about the Google environment. Very helpful information. Much needed and appreciated.
But google knows the people that aren't seein his vids
I use free extra storage from another Gmail account. I have a 'main' Gmail account and several 'secondary" Gmail accounts I mainly use for shopping or other activities like Facebook etc. I dont want them bothering me with e-mails on my main Gmail account.

That's 15G extra storage from each account! While this may not be convenient for email storage or photos uploaded from your phone, it works very well for uploaded files from your computer like pdf's, spreadsheets and presentations etc.
You need to make sure you log into those secondary accounts on a regular basis as Google deletes non active accounts.
Would like to see a video on how exactly you do this. Why is the extra 15BG of storage no good for photos? Can you not use your secondary email accounts like your primary account and have the 15GB cover all 3 google services ie Gmail, Drive and Photos?

how do u keep the secondary google email account from simply RE backing up the same photos?

Also we should have an option to trash the files after take out. We still have to do the extra step.

In Canada, we kind of say "fal" as in the name "Val"...maybe we don't know where it comes from, so we just say it fast and hope no one notices that we're not sure whether or not is "fowl", "fall", "foul", "fell" or, well, the list goes on! 😁 I've looked it up, now, and another source also quotes Shakespeare's lines from Mcduff and goes on to say that the "fell" part comes from the idea of a "wicked felon"... I asked my 92-year-old Mum and she says "they" always pronounced it "fowl swoop", "like a bird swooping to get its prey"...she's right on point with William. M
Awesome! There are so many things I say that I have no idea about!
@@dottotech And so much that you say that you know just about everything about! I always love seeing where our every-day idioms originally came from. Thanks, Steve; another awesome job! M
