I have to copy the photos to my Mac to view and work on them. Now I have 2 copies, and I have to remember to move them back to the network drive after working on them. In Windows I can work on pictures on the network drive, if it is mapped, and there is no copying. Just remember to save your changes before shutting down.<br /><br />Picasa is weak on network support. If the .ini file mapping the photo order was stored on the network drive along with the photos, it wouldn't matter which computer you used to view the photos - they would always be in the same order.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-61090826982685095492009-06-11T15:07:55.804-07:002009-06-11T15:07:55.804-07:00I just got a new iMac and am transitioning from a ...I just got a new iMac and am transitioning from a PC. Picasa is only allowing me to import one folder of photos at a time. And then I have to create a new target folder for every one. I have almost 5000 photos in more than 5 dozen albums. Is there a way to do this without having to do all this manually? I saw in the comments above that Picasa should be reading an .ini file. Don't know how that works. FYI, the source folders are from my PC's external drive and contain all the .jpgs.

Depending on the number of images you have, this may take some time (maybe hours). After that, you shouldn't notice it again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-3122674868007156992009-01-07T08:40:00.000-08:002009-01-07T08:40:00.000-08:00Nice, except the import from iPhoto did not transf...Nice, except the import from iPhoto did not transfer the image description field.

I've been working with Windows on my Mac via the Parallel Desktop gizmo, but it's painfully slow and obviously a lame workaround. Picasa for Mac is currently and perfectly indexing my 20,000+ photos that are on both the Mac and our network drive. <BR/><BR/>The collage tool has been fantastic. I've made 6 picture collages to summarize and showcase events (especially great for chops of only semi-great pics) and have made some for gifts. I took several family and travel photos and made an 8x10 collage for Grandma for xmas. I've had a lot of fun trying different collage setups, and used a sweet crop of a collage in our xmas letter. <BR/><BR/>The retouch tool is one thing I've missed in Picasa since the beginning. YAY!<BR/><BR/>So yes, I'm giddy. <BR/><BR/>-ReaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-74327051398592497102009-01-06T12:53:00.000-08:002009-01-06T12:53:00.000-08:00Lost wrote: I'm having an incorrect date displayed...Lost wrote: <I>I'm having an incorrect date displayed in Picasa for Mac - everything's listed as ~33h later than it is in the EXIF info!
