    iPhoto probably created a new, empty iPhoto library.

     

    Open your Pictures folder and look for your old iPhoto library. Double click it to open it in iPhoto and to upgrade it to your new iPhoto version.

    What iPhoto version did you update from, and which version are you having now?

    If it's not you're probably looking in your damage library whcih should still contian your photos although not accessable. Therefore try the following:

     

    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.

    2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database.
