Here's how to get photos from discs created with previous versions of iPhoto into your current iPhoto 9.5 library:

1 - copy the library from the disk to the Desktop.

2 - download and double click on the iPhoto Library Upgrader tool to launch it and select the library on the Desktop to convert.

3 - launch iPhoto 9.5 and open the newly converted library on the Desktop.

4 - use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to merge the library on the Desktop into the iPhoto 9.5 library in the Pictures folder.

5 - confirm that all of the photos from the Destkop library have been successfully imported into the iPhoto 9.5 library before deleteing the library from the Desktop.

6 - repeat Steps #1 - #5 for each library on a disk.

Happy Holidays
