![]() It’s best to be logged in to your Google Account, then you’ll have access to your synchronized contact list.You can rename a People album just like any other Album or Folder: The Unnamed albums are actually the people albums that you worked so hard to make, they’ve just lost the actual name. You don’t have to re-identify all the individual pictures. If you have albums with the title, it’s not as bad as you may think. On a Mac, use Picasa->About Picasa to see the version and it should be 3.9.16. You can check the version with Help->About Picasa – as of today (11/25/13) it should be 3.9.0 (Build 136.2). If you don’t have the option under Tools->Experimental for “Write faces to XMP” that means you’re not using the latest version of Picasa. Remember when Picasa first scanned all your photos for faces? I don’t know what “Write All” does. If you choose “Write Faces” this will go thru all of your named faces and it will take a while – an hour or more. If you just have a few People Albums then we recommend you select one album at a time and then use the “Write Selected” option. There are 3 choices: Write Selected, Write Faces, Write All. To ‘store name tags in photos’ that you’ve already identified, you can use the Tools->Experimental->Write faces to XMP command. If not, realize that checking the box now only affects people that you identify from now on. If yours is already checked, you’re golden. To prevent this from ever happening to you again, you need to be sure the “Store name tags in photo” box is checked. You probably spent a fair amount of time identifying all those faces and you don’t want to lose them! Yet, if you needed to uninstall and re-install Picasa for any reason, your perfectly named People Albums may end up all called. This article is for those of you who like Picasa’s face recognition feature and have People Albums named for the people who appear in your pictures.
