Concerning the "Resynch Gallery" button, I’m not sure in which folder MaxiGallery will look for new pictures.
/assets/galleries/<document_id_here>/ by default. The base path where maxigallery stores it’s images can be changed via parameter though, but unless you have changed it, the gallery images should be there.

You’re telling about FTP transfer. Does this mean that the new pictures have to be uploaded to the gallery folder and MaxiGallery will take them from here to resize them and create the thumbnails ?
Yes.

Point 3 above is very strange in my case. My page use 3 MaxiGallery calls.
....
Concerning point 4, the pictures were correctly uploaded in the right galleries (folders). A parsing error displays, but when refreshing the page all is OK.
Point 3 and 4 will be corrected when you add &manage_target and &is_target parameters to the snippet calls, or use the disable manager hack and disable picture management for the galleries that should not be managed in that document.
When you do multiple galleries on a single page, this is the correct way to do it:
1. Create each gallery on it’s own document that only runs with one MaxiGallery call. For example doc id: 4, 5 and 6 has a call like this:
[!MaxiGallery? &max_pic_size=`800` &is_target=`1`!]
2. In a single document, query pictures from a gallery and use the &manage_target parameter to tell on which document it should do the picture management for the gallery:
[!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`4` &manage_target=`4`]
[!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`5` &manage_target=`5`]
[!MaxiGallery? &gal_query_ids=`6` &manage_target=`6`]
Now when you click ’manage pictures’ button from the second snippet call for example, it will redirect you to doc id 5 to do the picture management and that document has only one MaxiGallery call, so it won’t mess things up when uploading.
