Q: how can i import photos from iPhoto to Photos without losing the face tagging and keyword data?
I set up photos when it was originally installed but opted to not migrate all my pictures from iPhoto at that time. I have now decided that I want to use the Photos app instead of iPhoto so wish to merge all the photos from iPhoto with the other photos i now have in Photos. How can i move all the photos from iPhoto to Photos without losing all my keyword and face tagging information? It took me months to do all the tagging and keywords for around 6000 photos so i am not keen to move them if i lose this data? I don't want to have two separate libraries either; i tried this and found it a pain. I tried exporting into files and then importing into photos but it lost all the face tagging, keywords and location information.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)
