I upgraded to a new mac and had to transfer my photos from iPhoto to the Photos app. I cannot find my iPhoto library in Photos even though it says it was migrated. I am missing thousands of photos.

How do I retrieve and view my iPhoto Library?

MacBook Air (2020 or later)

How did you do that transfer?


Have you more than one library?


Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch Photos. Is there more than one library listed?
