Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
We have a brand new MacBook Pro and need to be able to upload all our photos from both phones going forward to the same computer so we can see everything under the same user. We don't want the photos on the cloud. I am strictly trying to figure out how to get them in the same place in iPhoto. Is this possible?
1 - choosing to use iPhoto is a bad decision, it was discontinued over three years ago - you should learn and us Photos, the new photo organizer
2 - make sure that iCloud Photo Library is disabled on all IOS devices and either use MyPhotoStream with the same Apple ID or use USB direct import from the photos to iPjoto (or preferably Photos)

Why do you not want to use separate user account on your Mac? If you are sharing one account on the Mac, you cannot have separate calendars, contacts, mail, etc on the Mac.
You can share an iPhoto Library or Photos Library between user accounts, if it is kept in a separate partition of the internal drive or on an external drive: Move your Photos library to save space on your Mac - Apple Support
Thank you for this link. We may want to do this in the future. Right now my husband maintains contacts/calendar on his work computer but I want all the pictures of our family from both phones in the same place.
Disabling iCloud and using the USB direct import worked. Thank you!
How can my husband and I both upload our photos to our MacBook Pro from two different iPhones and have the photos be in the same iPhoto file?
