Photos & Video synchronization quandary

Facebook & Photobucket accounts are supposed to synchronize when online and this application is running.

 

Yet I have removed many folders from both accounts and this is not being reflected on my tablet. Instead the tablet only creates newly added folders/photos but does not remove what was deleted.

 

In the tablet folder for those online accounts there is no way to remove the photos/albums. So how do I get rid of this? This issue is only going to clutter up the tablet with photos I don't want to keep.

Seems there is no way for the Photos & Videos to offer real time synchronization, and no way to remove online folders and photos from the application itself. Annoying.

 

Other way I found was to open Gemini File Manager and navigate over to /media/internal/.photosApp/com.palm.photobucket/UserName, then go online to my PhotoBucket account. Just compare folders in the list as to which one was removed and which is current.
Tap over to the context menu mode, tap the unwanted folder, and tap-to-hold then delete.

Note: That didn't work very well. Seems that was the path for the former 3.0.2 OS.
Cannot find where 3.0.4 is sticking the online synchronized photos & folders now. Have to use Internalz Pro to find it as Gemini is lacking - Gemini needs an expert mode!
