Transfer photos from Picasa PC to Picasa Mac

Hello everyone,

I'm about to switch, after so many years, PC to an Imac in the next days.

I have to consider how to migrate all my personal work to Mac universe ;-)

Among these, all my photos that I manage in Picasa tools, using it to create albums, tags and web share via Picasa Web.

I'm about to use Picasa for Mac, but how do I migrate all these albums, tags and so on on the new Mac device ?

I have all the original pics in an external HDD.

All questions I've found on forums concern migration to (or from) Iphoto, that is not intersting for me. And Google support deals with migration from (or to) Iphoto ! I will not use Iphoto.

Thanks if you have any ideas about that.

Hello

Read from google web site

http://picasa.google.com/mac_tools.html

Two Google products for getting your photos online

Picasa Exporter is an iPhoto plug-in that lets you upload your photos directly from iPhoto. How to install: 1) Make sure iPhoto is closed 2) Double-click the PicasaWebAlbumsUploaders.mpkg from the disk image.

Picasa Uploader is a separate application for uploading photos. If you don't use iPhoto or the Picasa desktop app, this one is for you.
