Picasa update

Yesterday Picasa advised there was an update available.   I clicked on update now.  It keeps stating Picasa is ready to install an update – restart Picasa and install the update now.  Yes, updated now is entered and it proceeds. 

 

It keeps doing this and each time Update now is entered.  It has done this at least 8 to 10 times.

 

How do u get it to stop.

 

Thanks

Thanks

Good Job!  So, I assume that you mean you used a web browser and went to http://www.picasa.google.com  and clicked Download Now?

Is that right?  and … did you uninstall Picasa first?  or not?

Thanks

I did not uninstall — went to download.com and installed from there.

Thanks!  Good to know.

I had this same issue – with the same resolution – and I'm sure others will too.  Hopefully they'll find their answer in your post.
