Does iPhoto work on older iMac with El Capitan?
Asking if anyone has experience yet with this: I have an older iMac (21.5 " mid 2011 2.7 ghz core i5, 16 gb memory). Currently using OS X 10.10.5 Yosemite; iPhoto 9.6.1; iMovie 10.0.9, and (new) Photos 1.0.1 (which I don't like much). I want to upgrade to new El Capitan but wonder if iPhoto will not function, or disappear. I want to continue using iPhoto for as long as I can, although I realize it will die off at some point.
I spoke to an AppleCare agent this morning, as I also have a MacBook air 11" mid 2012 still under warranty, to see what info I could get. She said her understanding is that iPhoto would not work with El Capitan, and that it was not supposed to work with Yosemite either, although I explained iPhoto works fine on this older iMac with Yosemite (she was surprised). And Photos works on both too.
I decided to do the normal download and install of El Capitan to the Macbook air through the App Store. It installed fine, and (old) iPhoto STILL works! So does Photos.
So has anyone with an older iMac, who still uses iPhoto, tried to install El Capitan and found that iPhoto works?
iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
