Q: If I upgrade to photos from Iphoto
Im running a late 2012 mac with mavericks and would like to upgrade to a new 27" 5k model. I know that all my photos will have to go into the new Photos app when I migrate from one to the other.
Can someone please tell me whether the photos app will still keep all my events and albums from iphoto. Im assuming that any slideshows wont be imported.
Also...do you just drag and drop pics into Photos like you do in iphoto?
If you do just drag and drop do they automatically appear as a new album and do you have the option of naming that album whatever you want to.
I actually like iphoto and some of the horror stories I hear about Photos is putting me off upgrading.
I also assume that you cant create slideshows in the new app or tranfer photos directly to flickr.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Events and albums will be retained but they will all be albums.
Slideshows are imported.
Drag and drop is still supported.
You can name an album whatever you want, I don't understand the rest of that particular question.
You can create slideshows and upload photos to flickr.
