Shared Photo Library problems
I've recently changed up (?) from iPhoto to Photo's on my Mac Mini (2012) running Yosemite. In iPhoto I had a single library held on a shared drive that all users accessed, added photos etc. When I migrated to Photo, I imported the iPhoto Library, but when I tried to use the new Photo Library as a shared resource, the 2nd user had multiple permissions issues and the software continually crashed. As a result, I've had to create a second Photo Library, imported the old shared iPhoto library, but for the past month we've now had separate libraries, had to import photos twice etc etc.
Questions
- Once Photos has been started, is it possible to merge/link/consolidate libraries without losing anything
- As they are now two separate libraries, I assume they take up twice the space? And twice the space again when I have to back them up.
- Is there an easy way to import photos from one library to another?
All help gratefully received...
