Feb 7, 2015 6:43 AM in response to Drew Reeceby fudgenut,Thanks, Drew. I always forget about backing up! Fortunately, you caught me right between downloading and installing. I think I'm okay with everything except pictures.
Putting this note in here in case someone else runs into this problem. I still have iPhoto 8.1.2. I can't upgrade because the current upgrade requires OSX 10.10 and I have (yes, can you believe it?) 10.9. I tried uploading to Flickr but it requires upgraded iPhoto as well. However, I found a wonderful program called Trunx and Trunx Uploader that is uploading my iPhotos as I write. Yay!
Will ax teamviewer, too. Very handy program but I think it expires to cut down on potential abuse.

Feb 7, 2015 6:47 AM in response to Drew Reeceby fudgenut,Forgot to mention Mail Pilot. It's a really great way to handle mail. I love where they're going with it. I don't know why it keeps cutting out on me. I just downloaded the newest version. I've sent them the reports. Hope they can fix it because it solves an issue I'm having with Apple Mail. Driving me nuts! But it's possible that Yosemite will also fix that issue. Crossing fingers!

Feb 9, 2015 5:00 PM in response to Old Toadby fudgenut,Actually, this is for anyone who would care to respond. Four days later, I'm still uploading photos. Now, I realize that it's a huge file. Not much I can do about that. But here's my question.
My PING (even with the Trunx program paused) is between 650 and 850.
My download speed hasn't been too bad. It's generally between .75 and 1.2.
However, my upload speed hovers around .07.
I've talked to my ISP about it, and they have me set at 3-6 Mbps. I'm out in the country on a point to point wireless connection, so I figure I can't expect too much. But it seems to me that the PING and upload speeds are really, really bad. They're telling me the problem is that Macs take a long time to upload and there's nothing they can do about it. Mmm, not buying that. Am I the one off base here?

Feb 9, 2015 5:10 PM in response to fudgenutby babowa,All ISP's I've ever heard of have slower upload speeds (than downloads). Mine is considerably slower.
