Q: Can all my iPhoto Libraries work with 9.2.3, since automatically upgrading since 2012?
In January 2011, I purchased an iMac with iPhoto installed, and I set the preference file to automatic updates.
I haven't had time to pay great attention to all things iPhoto, so I just added photos thoughtlessly. Now I have 4 or 5 libraries and I'm asked to choose one for the current blank iPhoto 9.2.3. I have no idea what to choose. Will they all work on 9.2.3, since they've automatically updated throughout the 5 years? Or is there just one that will work, or can I alternate at different times and think that they'll all be workable? I have no idea. I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I don't want to upgrade anything right now. Does anyone have any idea what I can anticipate? Thanks in advance for any light you might shed on this.
VIN, iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2010), Mac OS X (10.6.8), iPhoto 9.2.3

Maybe - it depends on unknown information like what version of iPhoto they were created with - basically if they were created by iPhoto '09 or '11 they will - if they were created with iPhoto '08 or earlier you will need to download and run the iPhoto library upgrader - Using the iPhoto Library Upgrader tool - Apple Support
try to open each one and see exactly what happens
