Hi,  All!

Hi, All!

I finally put my photos on Picasa and woke up the  morning after I ran this 
migration to discover those files now exist in a  practically unusable 
condition. Two problems popped up.

Although filed  into named folders and captioned with botanical plant 
names, etc., both file  names and captions were lost in the migration.  Picasa 
has indexed all  photos by year so Julia Child, a David Austin rose that was 
in a file with  other roses (so named) is now in a 2009 file, the year that I 
took the photo.  And of course, I rarely need to search by year, but by 
plant name or other  subject area. 

I've been playing with Picasa for a few days and haven't  found a way out. 
Can anyone advise me how to reorder and/or re-run the  migration to get my 
files replicated in Picasa as I had them sorted/filed on  my hard drive? Or 
is external storage the only way to  go?

Thanks!
