I have multiple iPhoto libraries and did this to make managing a very large number of photos more convenient. I have tens of thousands of photos. I'm considering having only one or a very few Photos Libraries especially if I want to use iCloud for them.
Is their a relatively easy way to merge iPhoto Libraries into a single Photos Library?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Photos also allows for multiple libraries -- in that case the designated system library is the only one synchronized with the ICLOUD -- and if you have not seen other posts tens of thousands of pictures will take a very long time to upload - as upload speeds are no-way as fast as download.
