    I have Picasa on my now dying laptop and I want to transfer it to a new computer. I have spent hours using face recognition to label all the pics and arrange folders I don't want to lose the files.Can anyone tell me how to move the programme and all its contents to a new computer and still be able to use it as I have on my current laptop.

    I think Picasa just writes to the file name and image metadata, so installing Picasa on the new machine and copying your images folder (such as "My Pictures") over to the new one you should be ok :)
