Upload iPhoto library to new iMac
Hi
I have made a backup of my iPhoto library on an external hard drive following instructions on this forum.
I have purchased a new iMac in November last year and I am trying to restore my Photo Library, again following various instructions from the forum.
I have tried this 4 times now and nothing seems to work.
Including uploading my library to where the iPhoto library in 'Go, Home, Pictures' then opening the iPhoto application which will automatically upload all the photos except this doesn't happen. When I open iPhoto for the first time there does appear an iPhoto icon to which I cannot drag and drop my photos into, it simply opens the application.
I have also had to restore my iMac to factory settings 4 times also.
I cannot use the home wifi or cable to do this as the iMac either cannot find the laptop I wish to transfer from or just takes too long. Last time I tried took 2 days and nothing!
Thanks for help and navigation to solve this
