I just updated to Yosemite and I see that they have replaced Iphoto with Photos. I used to make photobooks in Iphoto and it was so easy, but how can I make a photobook now without the Iphoto, can I do it in Photos?
Mac Pro
Of course
Just like iPhoto (which you can still use if you want to)
make an album of the photos you want in the book, open that album and select all - click on the + sign in the top bar and make a book

But i can't use Iphoto anymore, when i'm trying to open it it says "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store." But when i go to App Store I can't find Iphoto :/
I like to use the photo stream at Iphoto and not iCloud, because with Photos you need to use iCloud to transfer the pictures from your iphone to the mac.
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.

Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS X 10.10.3

iCloud Photos Library is optional on Photos (It is a great feature for me but not a required one) and with Photos MyPhotoStream works exactly the same as in iPhoto except that it is totally automatic in Photos and ll photos added to Photos are uploaded and all photos added form IOS devices are imported into the Photos library in their normal place, there no longer is a separate "event" for them

I agree; I cannot find iPhoto in the App store. There are other iphoto apps, but none seem to be the app associated with owning a Mac.
You agree with what? The instructions have been posted hundreds of times and twice in this thread for upgrading if you do not keep your software up to date - read them and follow the instructions
