Why aren't my photos organized by date?
Since the upgrade my photos are all out of order. Previously I had them organized by date and grouped into events. How do I do that now?

If you're referring to the new Photos application moments in Photo are the new Events, i.e. groupings of photos by date taken.
When the iPhoto library was first migrated to Photos there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events (which are now Moments) are represented by an album in that folder. To open the sidebar if it's not already open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N. Name it as desired. It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
The downside to the simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can be sorted manually either in the sidebar or in the folder's window at the right.
