Q: Photos and imovie 10.2.1 duplicate libraries
I´ve always kept all my media in a external Lacie drive. Ever since I upgraded to El Capitan, I have been trying to make things work, media wise.
First, after migrating to new Photos, I ended up with 2 photo libraries (one says photo library and another says iphoto library) when I was ready to delete the older iphoto for extra space, I read that it does not matter since they were mirroring the same space in the hard drive and I should NOT delete the older library. So I kept both libraries in my external drive.
So Now that I upgraded to the new imovie 10.1.2, I noticed that it says iPhoto library NOT a Photo library and then I discovered that iMovie upgrade had created a New Photos Library in my Mac Hard Drive (with just data and no pictures, as if starting new)
Should I delete this new Photo library in my Mac Hard drive or does imovie 10.1.2 need it? I also want to delete the new imovie folder that it got created because I want all raw movies to import to the external hard drive and not the Mac Drive.
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.5)
