Upload to Picasa

I assume it is wishful thinking that iPhoto will allow an upload to Google Picasaweb, other than individual emails?

What are the export settings you have defined for Picasa? Is it set to export at 100%?

Fails to upload to Picasa " Failed to retrieve account information"

Every time I try to upload a picture from my gallery to Picasa I get and message " Failed to retrieve account information" . I have full strength 4g and data connection is good, my Picasa albums show up in my gallery, but I can't add a photo to an album for the life of me. Ideas?

It turns out that if I have Drop Box installed on my GNex then pictures won't upload to Picasa. I have confirmed this to be a problem with a few ICS devices and even found some info on this issue on Google's forums ( http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/mobile/kW1D7jt-DMw ).
Basically until an update to ICS or Drop Box comes through the only solution is to uninstall Drop Box :-(

Editing In Lightroom and Uploading with Picasa?

I have about 10 years of photos organized with Picasa, but I recently bought a D90 moved over to RAW capture and processing. I just got Lightroom, and so far I love it. However, if I do cropping or exposure stuff in Lightroom, and then open the folder in Picasa for uploading, I only see the original, unprocessed images. Is there anyway to make Picasa "see" the edits from Lightroom?
I know there's a plugin for Lightroom to upload to Picasa Online directly, but for now I'd like to keep the ability to at least view and organize photos with Picasa.
Thanks!

Thanks for the response.
Picasa actually works just fine with both DNG and Nikon Raw files, and when you upload from Picasa, it just automatically creates JPG's. It's very convenient, but I prefer the editing tools in Lightroom.
The only solution I see now is to do as you say, but then I end up with two sets of photos which is a pain.

Picasa users out there? Can't upload to Picasa web albums - time out error

Hi All,
After posting numerous times on the google picasa forums, I am hoping someone can help me here. Not sure if this is the correct discussion area.
I have been having this issue for a few weeks now and it's driving me mad. Hope someone can help.
Everything used to work fine, but now whenever I try to upload photos I just get a message saying "Error request failed. Upload failed". Looking into the log file:
Modified request headers:
Added header: Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------54BEB7A34478

I am running Picasa v3.05 for Mac (10.5.7). Have tried various settings in my Firewall including switching it of all together, specifically adding Picasa under System Preferences > Security > 'Firewall' tab, rebooting my machine, banging head against brick wall etc....
Emailing my photos to Picasa works fine.
Any suggestions would be good.
I have searched the net and tried all suggestions to those people who have had any upload issues previoulsy, but to no avail.
Something to do with proxies maybe?
Not sure if it's a Picasa, Mac, Firefox, Internet or firewall setting, so if you have any ideas, I would be very grateful to receive them!
Any experts who can help me? Thanks!

Okay, just coming back to close this issue. I reset my Netgear modem to factory settings, set up my connections from scratch and hey presto, Picasa decided to work again. Not sure why it stopped working as I never fiddle with my modem settings (which is secured btw!). And that's after 3 weeks of searching the net and trying everything on my mac!
Hope that helps anyone else with similar problems in future!

Photos uploaded to Picasa after being adjusted in Aperture look washed out.

I imported color pics (RAW and JPEG) from my Nikon D70 to iPhoto. I brought them into Aperture, adjusted the shadows and uploaded them to Picasa (using the Picasa Web Albums Uploader, not the "Aperture to Picasa" plugin. The pictures on Picasa are totally washed out. This doesn't happen when I adjust in iPhoto and upload to the same place. I then downloaded the Kodak (ofoto) uploader. Same thing- washed out, almost gray photos.
Thanks.

Upload to Picasa and pixel size reduced by 50%

Hi,
I am having problem with the Mac picasa uploader so I used the slow method that uploads 5 pictures at a time. BTW I was uploading pictures from Aperture 3 to picasa. However, the file pixel size was automatically reduced by 50%. Is there a way I can upload file at its original pixel size?

What are the export settings you have defined for Picasa? Is it set to export at 100%?

I just purchased a Canon a4000 and the videos will not upload to Picasa. Pics will but not video

I have owned several Canon's and have never had this issue. I attach my camera to the computer using a USB cable and hit import and everything but the videos will upload. Please help. Thank you.

Hayn,
If you are experiencing some difficulty, I recommend using the software that came with your PowerShot A4000 IS to transfer the video over to your computer. You can also use a card reader to a accomplish this as well.
Picasa uses other available software and codecs on your computer to work with video. I have provided a link below that will show you a table of supported video formats and the software required to play them back:

If you still have problems with Picasa, I recommend that you contact Google directly for further assistance.

N8 picture upload to picasa

One question basically: does pixelpipe store my Google password with them?
And if they do, what alternative program can I use that stores the password only locally on the phone or something like that, safe that is?
N8 / RM-596

Symbian Belle ought to have an in0built option for batch uploading photos to Picasa. Especially now that Pixelpipe has quit the store.

Cannot open images from picasa/instant upload/google cloud

The majority of my photos are stored in google cloud... in picasa galleries, and google instant upload galleries. I can open a photo from local storage on my phone with no problem, but I cannot open any of the photos from the cloud. The instant upload and picasa snyc are a huge part of google's ecosystem and android's gallery. Other photo editing apps on the market can open all of the photos seemlessly, but photoshop cannot. If I open a photo from instant upload, or a picasa gallery, it does nothing and returns to the main screen of the app. This is a major problem for me. Any solutions or planned fixes?
To clarify, in case this is vague... if I go to the "new project from" screen, then select "photo library", my gallery opens, with my camera folder, facebook folder, instagram folder, instant upload gallerys, picasa galleries, etc... everything is visible. If I choose anything that is local (camera, facebook, instagram, etc), then it opens fine. If I choose anything that is in the cloud (instant upload galleries, picasa galleries), the app goes back to the start and never opens the photo.
Phone is a galaxy nexus running 4.2.2, but i suspect this will be the same across all phones.

A temporary "work around" is to use an app that can import correctly (snapseed, pixlr, etc), and then save the picture to local storage, then go in to PS and open it that way. Thats sort of a pain though because you end up with a copy back on local storage that you don't want.

Uploading edited photos from Lightroom to Picasa

Hi I have recently purchased Lightroom 4. I have edited my photos and saved them as JPEG. I exported them to my computer and wanted to select some for my Picasa web album. I have never resized previously and uploaded full size as I thought they are my back up if I lost everything here. Anyway when I tried to upload to Picasa it said the image was too large. Some were around 3-4MB which i thought was ok?
Help please!!
Thanks in advance =)

Actually, I just took a quick look on some Google help pages, and I may have got the size thing slightly wrong - it seems that the 2048 long edge is specifically for Google+, not Picasa:
"Automatic resizing
All photos uploaded in Google+ will be automatically resized to 2048 pixels (on their longest edge) and won't count towards your free storage quota.
All photos uploaded from the Picasa software or in Picasa Web Albums over the free size limit will count towards your 1 GB of free storage. When you reach your storage limit, any new photos you upload larger than the free size limit will be automatically resized to 2048 pixels (on their longest edge)."
As I tend to use Google+, I just went for the 2048 size as I prefer to do my own re-sizing prior to upload rather than rely on someone else to do it. Therefore, the implication is that you an upload full-size files to Picasa Web, but that there's a finite limit on how many such images you could store on there. Perhaps you're hitting that limit if you already have a lot on there?
In the export dialogue, you'll see a section on image size, and you can choose the "long edge" option and then enter the max size in pixels (make sure you pick pixels, not inches, cm, etc). Sorry I can't be more specific, but I don;t have LR available right now so can't check for the exact terminology used in the interface, but I'm sure you can find it.

Uploading/Exporting to Picasa

I'm running Tiger. Back before my HD crashed, my IPhoto program, now 6.06 [322], showed an option to upload to Picasa. After getting a new HD, I recently started iPhoto, imported some pictures from my camera and tried to export them to Picasa, but there was no option to do that.
Is there some update I am missing? How can I get that Picasa option back?
Thanks!

You get it back by re-installing the Picasa plug-in that was installed. Google make it, so, erm, google it

The best way to import photos from Picasa to iPhoto

Hi,
Many of my friends share their pictures online using picasa. Sometimes, I'd like to copy these pictures to keep a backup offline. As a software, I use iPhoto; not picasa. What is the best way to import pictures from picasa to iPhoto?
I first tried to subscribe to the RSS feed using iPhoto and then copy the pictures from there to my library, but then the dates of the pictures are set wrong: instead of indicating when the picture was shot, it indicates some other date (I guess it indicates the date when the picture was uploaded to picasa).
Then I decided to install the software picasa.app. From the webalbum of my friends, I could download the pictures directly to picasa.app. Then I exported them to the desktop, and from there imported them to iPhoto. The dates where set correctly, but I lost all the titles and comments of the pictures.
Do you have any method to download the pictures while keeping both the dates and the titles correctly?
Thanx!

There is a direct option in Organizer which lets you import from iPhoto. This is under Import dropdown menu in left panel.
If you are importing from iPhoto'09, your Tags, Albums Events, captions, star rating would also get imported apart from your media. This works differently for iPhoto'011 where you can get only the media to the Organizer,
Just a couple of things to know:
1. If in iPhoto preferences, you have chosen to create copies of your photos in iPhoto library and your library hence refers to the media store inside the library package, then on importing from iPhoto, Organizer would create copies of all those media under your pictures folder. That means, it would not corrupt your iPhoto package or modify it in any way.
2. However, if in iPhoto, you are organizing by using references to original location on your Hard drive i.e. you are not creating copies of media in iPhoto library then on importing from iPhoto to Organizer, the Organizer would also use the same references and would not create copies of the media.
Hope that helps!

Uploading in Lightroom

I have been uploading some web galleries with lightroom for a horse show. The first gallery I uploaded, went just fine. However, the others I have uploaded, I have noticed I get an error of "An error occurred sending the file: a response was not received in time."
I have tried uploading with a different ftp client, but when I do that, some of the thumbnails do not get uploaded (the majority are there, there are just 2-4 with each gallery that are being left out). Does anyone know how to fix this error?

Thanks for the response.
Picasa actually works just fine with both DNG and Nikon Raw files, and when you upload from Picasa, it just automatically creates JPG's. It's very convenient, but I prefer the editing tools in Lightroom.

Managing my Picasa online gallery

I've created an album for those pictures that I upload to Picasa via the Google uploader for iPhoto.
Everything works fine except when I need to replace a photo an updated version (the album is of a reef tank). With each photo, I add a comment with various information.
When I need to update the photo, I have to copy and paste the information from the old photo to the new photo. Since iPhoto only gives you a small space for typing comments, this is a bit of a pain.
Also, I have to go to my Picasa photo gallery to delete the old version.
Is there a better way to do all of this -- and keep my online picture gallery in Picasa?
Thanks!
Mike
