#IPHOTO UPDATE FOR YOSEMITE MAC#
Apple wants to make sure that anyone with both an iOS device and a Mac gets a seamless experience with their photos, same as they already get with everything from their iCloud mail to their iTunes music to their iWork documents. Increasingly, more and more of them own a Mac as well. Hundreds of millions of people own an iPhone, iPod touch, and/or an iPad. They're going to make Photos not just an app but a service for everyone on every Apple device. With Photos, Apple is saying pictures and video - our memories - are so important they're going to make them an integral part of iOS, OS X, and iCloud at the system level.

They were built in an era before iOS and before iCloud and while they've had some interface and compatibility layers bolted on, they were never rebooted the way iMovie and Final Cut Pro were in terms of interface, or Pages, Numbers, and Keynote were in terms of compatibility. IPhoto and Aperture are, by modern standards, old apps. When it comes to learning and remembering, less really is more. The important part here is that, wherever you're accustomed to finding a photo or video in Photos for iPhone or iPad, that's where you'll be able to find it in Photos for Mac.

Likewise, Apple hasn't said how "special" albums like Faces or Places will be handled, but hopefully more information will be made available about that as Photos for Mac gets closer to release. There's also a Projects tab in Photos for Mac, though we'll have to wait and see how that maps to projects as they currently exist in iPhoto and Aperture. Shared photos will keep track of all your Shared Photo Streams, likely including the automatic shared family album set up as part of Family Sharing on iOS 8. How existing iPhoto Events get mapped, be it to Moments, to Albums, or to something else, remains to be seen. In terms of organization, Apple has shown that the same, automatically generated Years, Collections, and Moments views that currently exist in Photos for iOS will be implemented in Photos for Mac, as will Albums. (Aperture and iPhoto libraries are already compatible, and have been shareable since versions 3.3 and 9.3 respectively.) Likewise, if you use iPhoto, you'll be able to migrate your library over to the new Photos app as well. All the non-destructuve edits you've applied to your Aperture photos will be preserved in Photos, and preserved non-destructively.

When you migrate, all your albums, folders, keywords, and captions will move from Aperture to Photos. If you had iPhoto 8 (09) or earlier you'll have to begin using the new Photos app that came with Yosemite.Come early next year, you'll be able to migrate your existing Aperture library to the new Photos app for Mac. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. IPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?

See this article for details on how to unhide it. Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. If iPhoto 9.6.1 is there, close the App Store, drag your existing iPhoto app ( not the library, just the app) to the trash and then go back to the App Store.

If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1 Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. What version of iPhoto were you last using? If it was some version of iPhoto 9 you should be able to get 9.6.1 from the App Store buy following the directions posted by Tererence Devlin in this post:
