You can choose Original if you want to create a backup of all your pictures at the highest resolution. Most of it is self-explantory, but leave the setting for Upload Setting to the default of Best for Sharing. Step 6) Once you do that, it’ll bring up another dialog box asking for the Title of the album and some other information. There is an option to sign up, so click that if you don’t have a Google account. When you click that, it’ll ask you for your login information, so you need to create a Google account if you don’t already have one. Then simply right click on the folder and there is an option called Upload to Google+ Photos. Step 5) Once everything is loaded, you can click on any of the folders in the left pane and it’ll highlight that folder and bring up the pictures for that folder. Here you can change the date and also add a location if you like. Quick Tip: If the date set by Picasa is incorrect, just right-click on a folder and choose Edit Description. By default, it’s smart enough to sort out all the pictures by year, month and so forth. When you click on one of the folders, all the pictures load up on the right side as thumbnails. Step 4) Give it some time to find all the pictures and you’ll see the folders load on the left-hand side. So even if your pics are not in those folders, just choose it anyway and I’ll show you how to add the folders later. I usually choose the latter option (My Pics, My Docs, Desktop) because otherwise when the whole computer is scanned, it will pick up a lot of junk images that you probably don’t want (Office icons, etc). Once it loads, a dialog comes up asking to either scan your whole computer or just My Pictures, My Docs, and the desktop. Now if you have a ton of pictures and it’ll take too long to move them or you just don’t want to, then just go ahead and open Picasa and you can tell it to look in other folders for your pictures. That’s where Picasa looks first for your pictures. Step 2) Next, before you start Picasa, you can move all your pictures to the My Pictures folder under My Documents. As mentioned before, it’s available for both Mac and Windows, which is really nice. You can just click Run, so that after it downloads, it’ll automatically start the installation. A dialog box should pop up asking to save the file or run it. Go to and click the Download Picasa link. Ok, so here’s how you would go about setting up Google+ Photos with Picasa (and in turn setting up Picasa itself)…STEPWISE!
