Q: Is it safe to delete an iPhotos library that has been migrated to Photos when upgrading to Yosemite?
I recently upgraded to Yosemite during which all the photos in my iPhoto app got migrated successfully to the Photos app. So, is it safe for me to delete the iPhoto library from my computer? ~Chessmonkey

Photos for Mac
The shared pictures themselves are the same size and content, but the associated data in libraries (metadata, thumbnails, etc) are different.
You can use iPhoto in Yosemite if you obtain the latest version (9.6.1). There are a couple of small tricks to doing so; write back for details if you decide you really need to go back.
