Q: how do i consolidate multiple iPhoto libraries
For reasons now lost in obscurity, I thought it a good idea to create a new iPhoto library when one seemed to get too full.
Now I have several iPhotos librarys, and of course can't remember what's one which.
I have a new iMac, and would like to imprort the various iPhoto albums into one iPhoto album.
How can I do that?
Can I somehow retain the events/albums,etc.?
Thanks,
Hal

iPhoto does not support to merge libraries into one.
The utility iPhoto Library Manager can merge libraries -
download here: iPhoto Library Manager
If you have access to Aperture, you can also use it to merge your libraries (see: Aperture 3.3: How to use Aperture to merge iPhoto libraries), but if you need to buy a tool, iPhoto Library Manager would be the more economic solution, and it is a must-have with iPhoto anyway.
