Q: when updating my ipad air to iOs 8 my 2 albums on iphoto were deleted since iphoto is no longer supported. Anyone similar experiences? Any chance to get back my albums (not only the pictures, but the actual album with text etc)?

    This blur below copied from here. I made the text bold for emphasis.

    Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8 - Apple Support

     

    The following data will migrate from iPhoto to Photos.

    • Any photos in your iPhoto library that aren't already in Photos are added.
    • Image adjustments you made in iPhoto are migrated to Photos.
    • If you applied image adjustments to photos synced to your iOS device from iTunes, a duplicate of each photo will be created in Photos with adjustments applied.
    • Photos hidden in iPhoto do not appear in the Years, Moments, or Collections views in Photos, but are placed in an album titled Hidden.
    • Photo Books, Web Journals, and Slideshows are converted into regular albums in Photos. Text and layouts are not preserved.
    • Only projects created on the device performing the migration will be converted. Projects you synced from other devices to iPhoto via iCloud must be converted from the devices on which they were created.
    • Photos marked as Favorites in iPhoto are marked as Favorites in Photos.
    • Tags and captions from iPhoto are not displayed in Photos, but you can use them as search terms and they will show up respectively as Keywords and Titles in Photos search results.
    • Flags from iPhoto are converted to the keyword Flagged.

    Thanks. This I read after I upgraded and it does not resolve my problem, because I still have the pictures but what I want back is the album with my comments and all. Is there any way to retrieve the actual old album in iPhoto?

    The reason that I made the text bold was to answer your question. Text and layouts are not preserved and there is no way to get them back.
