Aug 31, 2015 11:22 AM in response to LarryHNby Gundo Guy,Larry, Unfortunately Photos has never worked on my iMac (although it does on my MBA). My Photos is version 1.01. OS X is 10.10.4. I would appreciate any guidance. Thanks.

Aug 31, 2015 12:39 PM in response to Gundo Guyby LarryHN,OS X 10.10.5 is out - you should update to it
That probably will not change this though
try backing up your iPhoto library and launching iPhoto while holding down the option and command keys (you do need the current version 9..1 - if you do not keep you software up to date see Can't Update iPhoto because it is not available in the App Store ) and repair permissions and then rebuild your database and then migrate again (drag the rebuilt iPhoto library to the Photos icon in the Dock)

Aug 31, 2015 4:04 PM in response to Gundo Guyby Old Toad,If repairing the library doesn't help launch Photos with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see it will work as expected. Quit and reopen your original library and see if there's any improvement.
Some users have reported that just created a new library helped the old one somehow. Give it a go.
