    When you launch iPhoto it should show you the option to migrate. Doesn't it?

    See this link:    Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8

    No I'm afraid that won't work - because IOS8 now doesn't allow iphoto to open anymore even though it's still there. i right click and can see my library. I plugged my phone into itunes and under photos even checked all the boxes for my photos and it appears some have come across but not all. Any ideas?

    I can't unistall and install again because no option to do that I have read...

    Have you tried it?  When I launch iPhoto on my iPad or iPhone with iOS 8 , it brings up the question if I want to migrate.  You just can do anything else but migrating.

     

    . I plugged my phone into itunes and under photos even checked all the boxes for my photos and it appears some have come across but not all.

    Do you have enough storage on your iPhone to accommodate all photos you selected?

    Hi - I appreciate you replying twice to me.  Can I ask a simple question. In ios8 is the iphoto tab replaced with a photo's tab? that lists all the images much the same as before.  My issue is that I can use preview and see that I have 3000 images in the last 12 months and view them.  But my issue is that I want to on my mac be able to look at the photo tab and see them all there - I cannot.  I would love to know how i can migrate my pics from iphoto to photos. Surely i cannot be the only person in mankind that has not had their images come across after the ios8 upgrade?
