    Hi Matthew

    Have you been able to upload any pictures to Facebook using the Picasa uploader?
    Have you tried uploading a single photo?

    I installed the uploader (version 2) and was able to upload to Facebook, although not all the photos were transferred the first time I tried and I had to re-upload some of them.

    Apparently Facebook limits the number of photos that can be added as an album from third party software to 60. So, if you need to load more it’s best to upload in batches and reorganise the photos in Facebook.

  2. Thanks Tim
    no it will not even let me upload one, I tried to put one on my profile, but no joy!

    thanks for the interest

    Have you tried reinstalling Picasa and the Facebook uploader?

    The FAQs page for the plugin is here: http://apps.facebook.com/picasauploader/faq.php and contains instructions on how to it can be removed.

  4. Hello again Tim
    got your reply, will try it out when I feel a bit braver, not sure about how to reinstall facebook uploader, it will probably lead me through it when I start. will I lose my stored pics on Picasa?

    thanks once more Matthew

  5. HI TIM

    I followed the link you gave me, didn’t have to uninstall Picasa! had some success, thanks, but I think that Picasa is a bit tempramental. But you have put me on the right track.
    Thanks from an ancient beginner

  6. Hi Tim
    A very big THANK YOU I eventually plucked up the courage,reinstalled Picasa,and got my photo uploaded to the facebook profile. I don’t know how you figure these things out!

    Thanks Matty

  7. Hi Matty
    Good to hear that you felt confident enough to reinstall Picasa and that you’ve succeeded in uploading your photo to Facebook.
