• How to import photos from iPhoto to the Photos without losing the date structure

  Hey there,

  Today, I realized that not all my photos to the Macintosh iPhotos Photos last year. At this point, I'm missing about 700 photos.

  Is it possible to merge the iPhoto to the existing photo library library while keeping the structure of date? I tried just to drag some photos but they then imported as if they were taken today.

  If possible, I want to keep the date structure so that all the photos that were taken at the same time will remain together.

  Export images from iPhoto to the Finder, and then import them to Photos.

  File-> edit

  This trick of the user

  a details of the options in the export dialog.

  Ignore the file date.

  There are two types of metadata involved considering the jpeg or other image file.

  One is the data file. That's what shows the Finder. That tells you nothing about the content of the file, just the file itself.

  The problem with the metadata file is that it is easy to change the file is moved from one place to another or exported, by electronic mail, downloaded, etc.

  Photographs have also obtained the Exif and IPTC metadata. The date and time that your camera broken that the photo is saved in the Exif metadata. Without worrying if that said the date of the file, this is the actual time recorded by the camera.

  Applications of photo like iPhoto, Aperture, Lightroom, Picasa, Photoshop etc. get their date and time of the Exif metadata.

  When you export from iPhoto to the new Finder file is created containing your Photo (and its Exif). The file date is reported - exactly - the date of export.

  However, does not change the Date of the Photo.

  The problem is that the Finder doesn't work with Exif.

  Thus, your photo has the correct date and the file does, but these are different things. To perform a sort on the date of the Photo, you will need to use a photo app.

• Could not open the Photos after Snow Leopard update to El Capitan

  I have an iMac 3.06 GHz, which has been updated to El Capitan on January 15. Most of the things were going well with the transition, but it seems to be "stuck" now between iPhoto and photo - I don't know how else to put it, but I can't open the Photos. When I click on it in the Dock, I get the attached screenshot. It has been like that for several years I did the update to El Capitan. At first, it seemed that iPhoto has been migrated correctly to Photos during the update. But then, after clicking on my backup external to iPhoto, it appeared that if the migration process began all over again.  I now have the image shown on the attached screenshot. He's been stuck on '50% complete' for several days. When I try to stop the Photos I get: "Can't leave the Photos when creating or opening a library."

  After doing some checks for similar problems in previous posts, I was clued in to take a look at my Applications folder. And here, it lists the following multiple iPhoto libraries:

  iPhoto Library... January 15, 2016 (Date last opened)

  iPhoto Library - old... January 15, 2016.

  iPhoto Library - old... January 29, 2016.

  iPhoto Library - old... November 26, 2015.

  iPhoto Library... November 25, 2016.

  Clearly - even for me! -something is all fucked up here

  There is no attached screenshots - to attach a picture click on the camera icon in the top bar of the new message window

  What format is the external hard drive? Is this a Time Machine backup or EHD are used by TM? How the EHD are connected to your Mac?

  And you should not have iPhoto (or pictures) libraries in your applications folder - they should be in your pictures folder

  One thing to try is force quit Photos (File menu ==> force quit), and then drag the iPhoto library you want to migrate the Photos icon in the Dock (if it is in an appropriate place on an appropriate disk)

• The contents of the iPhoto library "copy of iPhoto library" has already been migrated to Photos.  Open the Photos to display your library or use a compatible version of iPhoto to open the iPhoto library. How can I fix?

  The contents of the iPhoto library "copy of iPhoto library" has already been migrated to Photos.  Open the Photos to display your library or use a compatible version of iPhoto to open the iPhoto library.

  What you trying to do?

  You want to open your iPhoto library in iPhoto or the new Photos.app?  and what version of Mac OS X and iPhoto you have installed on your Mac?

  If you have improved your Mac to Mac OS X 10.11,2, El Capitan, you can open your photo libraries or in News Photos for application mac or you can continue to use iPhoto, but only iPhoto 9.6.1 will work on El Capitan.

  IPhoto update (see user tip of Barney: cannot be updated iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store)

  Once an iPhoto Library was opened in Photos the extension will change to ".migratedphotolibrary".  To open this library in iPhoto again, change the extension of filename in '.photolibrary '.

• How to migrate pictures from iPhoto Library on external drive to the Photos?

  I deleted my computer today and try to import photos from a backup Time Machine, in Photos. I find the iPhoto library and clicked on "View the contents of the package" to reveal a bunch of files. I'm currently moving the entire iPhoto library on my desk, but it's more than 100 GB in size, so I was wondering if there is a more direct method? (All photos are stored in the folder 'Masters'? Could import from there?)

  Please if someone could help me with this I would be very happy! Sorry for the ambiguity in my formulation of the question and happy New Year! Thank you in advance.

  To migrate the iPhoto Library from a backup Time Machine pictures use Time Machine to restore the iPhoto library to a folder on your Mac. Then drag the library restored on the Photos icon in the Dock to open the iPhoto library. Photos will create a library of Photos transferred from the iPhoto library with all your changes, titles, captions, keywords, assigned albums. If you try to import the folder of masters you will only import the photos, but lose the structure of the library and all your work that you did in iPhoto.

• I have a large collection of big slideshows in iPhoto, created over the years with captions from the titles of the photos. How can I keep these slide shows subtitled in Photos?

  I have a large collection of big slideshows in iPhoto, created over the years with captions from the titles of the photos. How can I keep these slide shows subtitled in Photos?

  You can't keep slideshows as captioned photos.  Slide shows get migrated in the form of albums for the Group of photos is maintained.  But Photos don't have the ability to add descriptions to the slide show so that they would have to be manually added to each slide automatically.

  However, a possible solution would be to export every slide show in iPhoto as a Quicktime movie file. Which will keep the titles and descriptions on each slide.  The resulting QT files can be imported into the iPhoto library before migration or photo library after.

  

• If I switch to the photos in Iphoto

  Im running mac end 2012 with mavericks and want to upgrade to a new model of 27 "5 k. I know that all my photos will have to enter the new Photos app when I migrates from one to the other.

  Is someone can please tell me if the photos app is always keep all my events and albums in iphoto. IM assuming that the slide shows will not be imported.

  Also... do you do simply drag and drop photos into Photos like you do in iphoto?

  If you simply drag and drop automatically appear as a new album, and you have the opportunity to name this album everything you want.

  I did like iphoto and some of the horror stories I have heard about Photos is putting me off the upgrade.

  I also guess that you can't create a slideshow in the new app or transfer photos directly to flickr.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated

  When you open the first Photos on the new machine, it will attempt to automatically import the contents of the iPhoto library. I don't really know what it does not matter.

  If you have the latest version of iPhoto then before opening the pictures make a copy of your iPhoto.library file located in the folder/Home/images /. You can update iPhoto to the latest version and continue to use it in El Capitan. See the following topics:

  Re: Iphoto's gone? I want to go back!

  Go to the App Store and check out the shopping list. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1. If it's there, then drag your existing iPhoto application (not the library, just the app) to the trash. Install the application on the App Store.

  IPhoto is sometimes not visible on the shopping list. It may be hidden. See this article for more details on how to view it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4928.

  A question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall? iPhoto, the application and the iPhoto library are two different parts of the iPhoto program. So, reinstall the application should not affect the library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

• Synchronize the Photos and iPhoto?

  Photos arrived it imported all my photos in iPhoto. I have not really used pictures so far and now I realize that my library in pictures is a duplicate of my iPhoto library, except that they are not synchronized. My iPhoto library is updated, every photo I want is removed. This is not the case with Photos. Is there a way I can synchronize the two apps so that the pictures is exactly the same as iPhoto is now? Now iPhoto and Photos together use more than 100 GB of space, when in reality I have about half of it in photographs.

  If I can't sync, deleting photos in one application will not delete not them on the other, correct? In other words, I can delete all photos of Photos without deleting my photos in iPhoto, right?

  I have pictures 1.0.1 and iPhoto 9.6.1

  Thank you

  When you open the Photos first, the migration of the iPhoto library and photos of 2 libraries are hard linked to where they do not place additional, even though both show a large amount of data. However, from there, they are treated separately with respect to the addition or deletion of photos.

  You cannot synchronize the 2 applications. They are distinct and have nothing to do with one or the other.

  So, you might want to simply select the one you want to use and go from there. I guess that iPhoto is gradually thereafter. Photos will be more integrated into the system as well as for tasks such as sharing in emails, adding photos to apps like mail and so on.

  Yes, you can remove some or all of the photos in one application and does not affect the other.

• The photos in iPhoto and the same pictures? Is it possible to remove/save the photos to iPhoto?

  The photos in iPhoto and the same pictures?  Is it possible to remove/save the photos to iPhoto?

  Yes, they are literally identical. That is to say, time iPhoto Library and photo library (link) to point to the same files on your drive.

  The two libraries does NOT duplicate these files. If you delete the iPhoto library you will find very little storage space.

  My suggestion would be to leave in place iPhoto library until you have the habit of Photos and know with absolute certainty that all migrated to Photos correctly. Even in this case, you can copy, save a copy on a disk external backup and only remove them from your main drive.

• Photos referenced in the photo library are in the iPhoto library

  I have 26 pictures in my library of Photos that are referenced photos. I want to collect my library of Photos. However, when I try to do it says Photos that I need to allow it for the folder that contains these 26 photos. Unfortunately, this folder is inside my old library iPhotos, which is a package and therefore cannot be accessed via the dialog window Photos gives me.

  I tried to find 26 photos manually via the Finder via "Show package content", but I can't find them. A Spotlight search did not help either.

  Does anyone know how add these 26 photos referenced in my photo library.

  The strange thing is all the other photos (over 7,000) migrated my iPhotos library my library of Photos with no problems.

  I have 26 pictures in my library of Photos that are referenced photos. I want to collect my library of Photos.

  Have you tried to select the photos referenced in Photos and then use the command "file > consolidate?  To copy the original image files referenced in the photo library and making photos managed them.

  What happens when you try?  I see that sign.

  

• Transfer the photo library in iPhoto to Photos

  I have just passed my iPhoto library photos on El Capitan (10.11.3) on my new iMac and have lost some pictures, some were 3 years old from the originals and thus lost location information, faces and events.

  Would this be normal?  Can I retrieve the original info. ? or do I have to revisit each of my photos almost 5000 and identify the faces and places all over again?

  NO.

  It's the photo library is exactly the same as the iPhoto with converted albums - events library see How Photos handles content and metadata for iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support

• Pictures on a new iMac won't start - he's trying to fix the photo library after the migration of my old iMac.  The two are running El Capitan

  Photos on my new iMac won't start - get an error message after trying to fix the photo library.  I just migrated all of my old iMac a new aid of Time machine backup.  Both are running OS 10.11 (El Capitan).

  Get an error message after trying to fix the photo library.

  What does this error message say?  Photos crash or exit gracefully?

  Where your iPhoto library that Library stored? In your pictures folder, or on an external drive?

  Try to copy the library of Photos directly without Time Machine. Connect the two Macs using your network and copy the old Mac to the new library, well as signed in on your new Mac.

  Then try to open this copy in Photos.
