I recently upgraded to Yosemite. I also installed new versions of iPhoto and Aperture. When I try opening iPhoto I receive the following message:
The project opens in Aperture, which is version 3.6, with no problems, but refuses to open in iPhoto.
I suspect that iPhoto isn't aware of the new version of Aperture.
Any suggestions to be able to open the library in iPhoto?
Thanks!

Unfortunately your screen shot is not showing...
You do not mention your current iPhoto version. Is it iPhoto 9.6?
I can switch without problems between Aperture 3.6 and iPhoto 9.6 on the same library using "File > Open library in iPhoto" and "File > Open Library in Aperture".
It is iPhoto 9.6.
The dialog reads:
Aperture library needs to be upgraded.
To open this library in iPhoto, it needs to be upgraded with Aperture 3.3 or later.
Quit iPhoto and then open your library in Aperture to upgrade it.
I am running Aperture 3.6
Aperture upgraded the library, and I rebuilt it for good measure.
Thanks for your help.
What app created the library in your case? Aperture or iPhoto. In my case it was Aperture.

I tried it with both - libraries created in Aperture and in iPhoto.
The dialog reads:

Quit iPhoto and then open your library in Aperture to upgrade it.
The Aperture 3.6 update is supposed to fix this problem, see the Release Notes: Aperture 3.6 Release notes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2518
Aperture 3.6 Update
- Adds compatibility with OS X Yosemite.
- Fixes an issue that could cause Aperture performance to slow down while browsing through images with onscreen proofing enabled.
- Fixes an issue where Aperture could become unresponsive in rare cases when adding to a shared photo stream.
- Fixes an issue that could cause Aperture to unexpectedly quit when using the Write IPTC Metadata to Originals feature.
- Aperture no longer displays the alert, “This library has been opened with a newer version of Aperture.” when using Library First Aid with libraries previously opened in iPhoto.
Perhaps the developers have forgotten the similar fix for libraries repaired with Aperture. Try, if repairing or rebuilding the Aperture library with iPhoto will fix this.
iPhoto won't open Aperture library
