Ubuntu :: Getting Pics To Open With Picasa?
May 1, 2011
I want Picasa to be the default viewer for my pics. Yes, I've right clicked>properties>open with and picasa is not given as an option. Going to default media options also does not give me picasa. I don't know where else to look for changing it. Something in gconf-editor perhaps?

I have tried to run Picasa 3 (beta) and version 2.7 in Fedora 15 installed from rpms and get the same results.
First of all - [gary@FedoraCore15 ~]$ uname -r 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686.PAE F15 is a fresh install, no preupgrade etc. Dual core processor, 6 gigs memory 2.5 TB
At first I got an SELinux alert, troubleshooter gave me three options. I followed the last option, I believe I set a policy for wine-preloader only to mmap low memory. These were the commands I got from the troubleshooter:
[root@FedoraCore15 gary]# grep wine-preloader /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol
[root@FedoraCore15 gary]# semodule -i mypol.pp
After this I got no errors from SELinux or anywhere else, but no Picasa. If I run Picasa from a terminal I get the following: [gary@FedoraCore15 ~]$ /usr/bin/picasa
/usr/bin/picasa: line 189: 3186 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$PIC_BINDIR"/wrapper check_dir.exe.so
/usr/bin/picasa: line 248: 3298 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$PIC_BINDIR"/wrapper set_lang.exe.so
[gary@FedoraCore15 ~]$

Everything was going fine until about an hour ago. I havnt changed any settings on the computer. I can't open any folders, they all give a "File not found" error. Also some pics in Firefox have inverted colors. I doubt they are related though. Im running 10.10 and have been for about 2 weeks. I am completely new to linux prior to downloading this.

I am working on a presentation in OpenOffice's Impress. When I try to put animation in either the text or pics, it suddenly quits. I then click into it again and it does a recovery. Has anyone had this problem? What have you done about it? I am on a Dell optiplex 745 dual core with 2 gig memory operating in 10.04.

In my photos folder, I have hundreds of folders, each with Picasa.ini files.
Unfortunately, a lot of these files are actually ".picasa.ini" files & Picasa 3.0 does not recognize them.
All I want to do is rename all those ".picasa.ini" files to "Picasa.ini".
If there was a GUI way to do this, all in one go, then that would be my prefered method.
I couldn't find one, so reluctantly tried Terminal. After a lot of reading & trying, still no success.
"locate .picasa.ini" finds all the files easily.
I tried many variants around: "rename -v -n 's/.picasa.ini$/Picasa.ini/' .picasa.ini" to run a simulation without screwing anything up yet, but at best they only seem to rename one occurence, not all the files.

I just installed 11.3 and everything works beautifully, but for some reason I can't sign in to Picasa. Everything works fine in Picasa, but when I sign in I get an invalid password message. I know the password is correct because I can switch to the browser and sign in with it, but for some reason it's not working within the program.
Has anyone else had any issues with this? I searched, but the problems with other user's Picasa programs seem to be with the program not working at all or crashing.

I have about 20 000 photos in XP which have mostly been tagged, cropped, etc using Picasa. That Picasa is working OK.
I am shifting my activities from XP to Ubuntu & am just getting to the Photo part.
In Ubuntu, I have the current Picasa (3.0.5744-02) & that is working OK with any new photos I download to Ubuntu & modify in Picasa there.
My next step was to copy a folder of photos from XP to Ubuntu & look at them in Picasa. They copy perfectly & Picasa finds them OK. All the tags are there OK.
But the cropping & other editing from Picasa XP is not seen in Picasa Ubuntu.
The ini file is there & looks the same as ini files generated in Ubuntu.
Should I expect my XP edits to be visible in Ubuntu?
How can I get that to work, without re-editing 20 000 photos?

I have an HP laptop. I had Ubuntu 9 running perfectly for months and now it won't boot at all. When I start the computer it begins with the BIOS screen (and option to enter startup/boot menu). Then, that's it! Black screen, no matter how long you wait. I am running Ubuntu live off of a USB stick so I know all my hardware is fine.
When it crapped out:
I was doing basic things such as I had Gedit, FireFox and Chrome (for emails) running. I wanted to do some image, batch edits and after googling a bit decided to install Picasa. The install seemed fine and I had Picasa up and running. All of a sudden a text file I wanted to edit with Gedit gave me an insufficient permissions error warning.
I do not remember exactly what I did from there but basically I closed out everything and shut down the computer, it hasn't booted since.
I really don't want to have to reinstall/reconfig my whole computer again. However I am not all that savvy with computers let alone Ubuntu, so if it's going to be a long, drawn out process trying to recover...

Is there any software that runs on Linux that is similar to Picasa?I mean, it must be very easy to use, and it must let the user do the enhancements that a Picasa user would like to do to images.It would be nice if it were free as in speech, but beer is OK also.

Anyone aware of a photo-organizer that sorts by folder like picasa does it? Like when you have all your different albums already neatly sorted into different folders Picasa just lists each folder as a separate album, regardless of date and other information. It didn't work in f-spot when I last tried (couple of month ago) and I haven't tried it shotwell and gthumb yet because it isn't mentioned anywhere under their respective features. Also I'm hesitating to download and install both these apps because I have a lot of pictures which take a while to import.

Well I want install Picasa on ubuntu. I downloaded the deb file and installed it and picasa is also showing in application-graphics, but when i click it nothing happens. And when I right click any image there is no option for open with picasa. And also in ubuntu software center when I searched for picasa in installed program to remove it I found nothing. I cant figure it out how to do this. So as you can see picasa is showing as it is installed but nothing happens.

I am running Fedora 14 and I installed Picasa from the rpm provided on Google's website. Of course, there was an error when I launched it. This was due to the wine-preloader binary that is provided by Picasa being too old. I replaced it with my brand new one and Picasa started running. The problem is that I cannot log into Web Albums because it tells me that Picasa cannot reach the server or whatever. Error message:
Code:
Login failed
Please check that you are connected to the internet, and that your internet connection is working properly.
If this problem persists and you contact support, please provide the following error code:
HttpOpenRequest failed (121570 -
https:///www.google.con/accounts/ClientAuth [13]
Is there a wine internet module that exists, and if so, can I replace it with the one provided by Picasa, wherever it is ?

I didn't see another thread about Google Picasa being blocked by SE Linux. How do I tell my machine to allow it to run? I have the same problem with a program called Smartboard that I have installed but can't open.

I have a Canon Powershot A470 digital camera and can't get to transfer the pictures from it on Ubuntu 10.04. When I had Ubuntu 9.04 I imported pictures from the same camera without any problems. I considered that the problem could be the camera itself or the USB cable, but I have just accessed my pictures from that camera using Windows Vista.
Basically, what I have tried is 1) connecting the USB cable to the camera and the computer; 2) set the command button to the playback position; 3) turn on the camera. Using Windows Vista, this series of procedures opens the camera folder (as a flash drive) on Windows Explorer and this is what used to happen when I was using Ubuntu 9.04. I expected this to happen using the Lucid Lynx, but I didn't get even close. I even opened the Home Folder to see if something new showed up there when I hooked up the camera and turned it on.
Since I'm new with Ubuntu (especially the Lucid Lynx), I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have read that sometimes we have to mount devices in order to get them to communicate with the computer. Is this one of those cases? If so, how do I do it? Does anyone else have the same model of digital camera? How do you guys transfer the pictures to your Ubuntu-based system?

Fedora keeps crashing on me. It happens randomly. Sometimes it will give the equivalent of a blue screen for windows. Other times it will just reboot. [URL] Does any of this mean anything to anyone? Would really love to use fedora because I like it a lot an I'm getting familiar with it but it keeps crashing.
Its a fresh install. All I have done so far is installed updates via Yum, including the updated kernel, installed RPM fusion and I installed my wireless drivers.

How do I change the motion.conf to get the program from taking several snapshots? It just keeps running on and on snapping pics. Also, how do I get the program to record video whenever it detects motion?

i am looking for an image manipulator that will run on KDE and lets me convert hundreds of jpgs (> 1 MB each) at once into an emailable size like 50-200 kb each, so i do not have to do that for every picture, one by one.

Open these in separate tabs and compare for yourself: Windows - Ubuntu As far as I know, this color difference between Windows and Ubuntu has existed for years. I mean I have had countless installations of XP's and 7's, and I've tried several versions of Ubuntu. Always noticed that color difference.
I don't know which color is "normal", but I like Windows' way better. How can I achieve this result on Ubuntu? The pictures are both taken in VLC with default configuration. I'd be happy to provide more data, if needed.
