On my 2011 Mac Mini (OSX El Capitan) I seem to have two photo libraries --
Finder shows entries for ----- iPhoto Library.photolibrary and Photos Library.photoslibrary
Both have different pictures in these libraries - what are they for, and can I amalgamate the content into one library, ? - probably the one accessible from my Apple TV, and/or my iPad.
Mac mini, OS X El Capitan (10.11), iPad Mini , iPhone 5c, Watch
Yosemite version 10.10.3 added Photos which Apple intended to replace iPhoto. When yo first opened the Photos, Photos accesses the iPhoto library and copies photos over to the new Photos Library.
After the initial copying Photos no longer copies any new photos you added to iPhoto to Photos.
After photos are copied to Photos yo can delete the iPhoto library.
For more info on using Photos see:
And the final question on this topic is how to get my Apple-TV2 to show any of the pictures in my Photos Library - I have never had much luck in getting my domestic TV/Apple TV2 to show my photos on screen. Sometimes it has worked, others - it just will not show my Photos !
With my Mac Mini running, my Apple TV2 running, my TV on, iTunes running, Photos running, I get on the TV's screen display at "Computers" the following list ----
Music
TV Shows
Home Videos
Podcasts
--- but not the desired "Photos"
Librarian needs help
