How to solve Google sign in issue in Picasa (Ubuntu)

In a earlier blog post i talked about how to use Picasa software to store unlimited imaged and videos on PicasaWeb . Many of you may have installed  Picasa on Ubuntu(Linux) .But when you try to log in into your google account to upload images on Picasaweb or Google+ , it gives error check your internet connection (atleast with me it always happened).

In this blog i am going to show you how to install picasa and solve the login issue .

The "trick" is simply to install Internet Explorer 6 using Winetricks, which is required because Picasa 3.9 uses Google OAuth.

Step# 1. Install Wine and Winetricks using following commands

• "sudo apt-get install wine winetrick"

Step# 2. Install Picasa 3.9

• "cd && wget http://dl.google.com/picasa/picasa39-setup.exe" or "manually download it to your home directory using this link"
• "wine picasa39-setup.exe" (it will prompt for path where you want to install Picasa , I chose my document folder)

Step# 3. To login to google account you must install IE6 via winetricks using following command

• "winetricks ie6" 

(If IE setup doesn't start and you get an error then you can manually download IE6 from this link in ~/.cache/winetricks/ie6/ folder  then run "winetricks ie6" )

Step# 4. when the installation of IE6  is successful , run Picasa .Now click the login link on the Picasa the Google/Picasa login should now work. :)
