Cannot enable OneDrive 'Camera Upload'

camera issue

I love how completely clueless Microsoft workers are to their own product.

You have synced Gallary to your One Drive, this disables the camera upload feature. You need to remove your Samsung account from your Onedrive account.  Heres a link on how to unsync:

WT_013 - Thank you for this solution, I looked everywhere for this. The Camera Upload function is very useful, cannot believe that collectively Samsung and Microsoft managed to disable this function whilst enabling Samsung Gallery to upload to One Drive.

Thanks again!

Dear Humbledoore,

Thanks for participating in the Microsoft Community. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll help you.

In order to activate that feature, try this:

In the OneDrive app, tap the Me icon in OneDrive app for iOS at the bottom of the app, then tap Settings, next Camera upload and Set Camera upload to On.

"Important: Camera Upload can only be used on one account at a time. If you are also a OneDrive for Business user, select the appropriate Camera upload account." Normally this feature only works with personal accounts, doesn't works with School or business accounts.

See more information in below link:

Do not hesitate to ask if you need more information.

I hope it has been useful to you.

Regards,

Renzo.

rdazarola - the camera upload setting has gone, seemingly if the Samsung Gallery setting is set to upload to OneDrive automatically. I am very disappointed to lose the camera upload setting if the Samsung Gallery is set to upload to OneDrive therefore I have removed Samsung Gallery setting to upload to One Drive and so the Camera Upload returns.

I've had the same problem. OneDrive has stooped syncing my photos and my "Camera upload" option disappeared from OneDrive.. In my case it happened after I had linked my Samsung account with my Microsoft account. I have fixed the problem by removing Microsoft account from Samsung account. This is how I did it (Samsung S9 / Android10):

1. Go to phone "Settings" --> "Accounts and backup" --> "Samsung Cloud" --> (go to the 3 little vertical dots in the right top corner) and choose "Settings" --> "Samsung account" --> "Apps and services" --> "Connected services" and remove the Microsoft account that you use for syncing your OneDrive (in my case I only had one Microsoft account in the list there)
2. After removing Microsoft account from Samsung's "Connected services" list (as per step one), go back to OneDrive --> Me --> Settings --> (now the "Camera upload" has appeared again) so click it --> if the "Camera upload account" is blank, the "Camera upload" button will be grayed out so enter your Microsoft account in the "Camera upload account" first --> and finally enable the Camera upload" button.

And after that everything started to work and syncing fine again.
