Q: iPhoto v. Photos: Should I switch over?
Hello all,
I'm very happy with iPhoto & would prefer not to switch over...
- Do I run any risks if I stay with iPhoto?
- Can you refer me to a list of what functionality is given up by switching to Photos?
- Any general thoughts / opinions between the two - or recommended strategies?
Thank you!

Yes - some day when you do an OS upgrade iPhoto will quit working - you already can not order print products with it
not much - and a lot more added - work flow is different -- Photos 1.5 vs iPhoto 9.6.1: Features and Capabilities
make sure you are up to date with iPhoto 9.6.1 - rebuild your iPhoto library before migrating and remember it is a new program -- Moments in Photos are the New Events -- Details of how Photos handles the migration from iPhoto -- Notes on Migrating an iPhoto Library from iPhoto to Photos for Mac
