Just moved to shooting raw plus jpeg with my camera (Canon EOS 60D). But when I downloaded to picasa the information reads Jpeg (old style) in the compression area. Nowhere can I find that I have shot anything in raw. What am I doing wrong? I wanted to start here and make sure I was doing everything right before I take the next step which was to edit it in Elements. Thanking you in advance for your expertise.

as new photos are added to your computer,picasa catalogs them.i transfer my files to folders on my external drive. when i right click on the lead one and pick picasa they all come up. those shot in raw will have the raw code at the end of the file number, ie arw or dng.
