Help Where can I view my photos that I've synced?

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if you could help me with the above question? I don't have Instant Upload enabled so they aren't on Google+ but under settings>accounts>google>my account name, there is a box that says Google Photos and it's checked. So I was wondering if anyone knew where they were synced to? And where I go so I can view them on my desktop?

On a seperate note (please see attached) Google won't sync my browser (not a big deal because I use Chrome), I was wondering if anyone had any ideas why!?

Thanks.

Don't you see them in Gallery? Are these snapshots (camera) or pictures you've downloaded (or side-loaded) to your phone. In a file manager, my google+ pics are in sdcard/Pictures/Cache/com.google.android.googlephotos/ {assorted picasa folders}. The camera snapshots should be in sdcard/DCIM, but they all appear in Gallery. I do have sync running and I use picasa tool on my phone to manage the photos that are connected to google+.
 
He means where are the photos on his phone synced too since he has photo sync checked off. The answer I have is unfortunately I don't know. My first guess would be Google+ bit you are saying that is not the case. My second guess would be picasa. Check there. If not.... report back.
picasaweb.google.com

Can you post a screen shot of your accounts (block your name). I do not have an account with my name on it under accounts, just "Google"

Hmmmm. I have Instant Upload activated under Google+ and they appear in Google+ photos AND Picassa. Not sure what to tell you.
 
I really would like to know where my photos are going. Does anyone have a tablet? Can you view your phone pictures on your tablet? Again, with having Instant Upload off and Google Photos on.
 
The only 2 places google sync photos are picasaweb and google+. You most likely aren't syncing anyplace if you can't find them there under the same account as the phone.
 
I took another screenshot just to clarify what I mean. It seems that I might not be explaining it very well.

Hmm, I checked the Instant Upload and synced but nothing has synced. I took a picture and then synced again and the picture still hasn't come up. :confused:
