Uploading RAW from my new K-3

Your software more than likely does not support the RAW format that you used.
I don't have a K3 and I also don't use the software that you mention. But from reading on the web, it's my understanding that LR needs the in-between step of using the adobe raw converter before importing K3 raw images. How to do it, I don't know as I have experience with it. And if not mistaken, you need to set the camera to the DNG raw format and not PEF one.
No idea for Picasa.
If the above is not an option, I suggest that you install the software that came with the camera; at least you can view / convert the images till such time that you (or ligtroom / picasa) have sorted it out.

Hi Judith, Lightroom 5.3 does support Pentax K3 PEF files, earlier versions do not.
