Having issues transferring pictures from iPhoto folder to new OS X Yosemite Photos app
Hi all,
I just downloaded OS X Yosemite on my mid-2011 Macbook Air. When I tried to open Photos, it said that I need to upgrade my iPhoto collection using the free iPhoto Library Updater through Apple. Well, I downloaded this upgrader and executed the program through utilities, but it will not allow me to upgrade my iPhoto library. Basically, it won't let me "select" iPhoto Library in Pictures when I go to "Choose library...". It just won't let me click on it! The automatic folder it selects is my iPhoto Library that was saved on Dropbox, which is new enough where it doesn't need an update at all and can be downloaded through the Photos app immediately. The problem with this is that I don't have much Dropbox space, so only a small portion of my iPhotos are saved on there. I need to use my original iPhoto library folder from my previous software, but it won't let me upgrade it on iPhoto Library Updater! Anyone have similar problems with this? Ideas or solutions?
Thanks!!
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
