When copy my IPhoto 7.1.5 Library from my IMac and open it on my MacBookPro, which has IPhoto'09, many albums/slideshows are lost because IPhoto '09 insists that I click on 'upgrade' before it will open the 7.1.5 Library. Help!
Mac OS X (10.6.8)
The library is damaged in some way.
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
