Now that Amazon is providing unlimited cloud storage for photos (if you have Amazon Prime), I want to find the easiest way (assuming it's possible) to back up my iPhoto (9.5.1) to Amazon? Any info on this would be appreciated.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
You cannot back up your iPhoto Library to any cloud service with confidence. Time and again see reports on here from folks who have found their libraries corrupted because the disk format it is stored on in the cloud is inappropriate.
You can however, export your Photos from the Library and back them up to the cloud. Any service will do - Amazon, Flickr etc
This User Tip

has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
Once more, though, this is not backing up the Library, just the originals.
Can I backup my iPhoto library to Amazon Cloud?
