I would do it before the migration, as a single bad apple in your library could cause the background processes to hang on incompatible items and Photos might not be able to scan for faces, recognize objects, or scan for duplicates, or sync the library with iCloud. It is harder to find and convert the incompatibe legacy items in the migrated Photos 8 Library than in your current library.
At least keep your old mac until all photos and and videos have been migrated properly. On your new Mac it will be harder to convert incompatible videos and image files, as they are no longer supported by the system and you will need to use third party apps to convert the videos and image files.
What you also should do on your old Mac is to identify and convert any videos or image files, that are in a format, that is no longer supported on Macs with a 64-bit only system version. Media files that are incompatible with Photos 8 on Ventura may be causing trouble, when they are still in the Photos Library and cannot be processed by Photos 8.
You can easily test for files that need converting, by creating a new, empty library on your new Mac, then try to import the iPhoto Library into the new test Photos Library. Photos 8 can no longer migrate iPhoto Libraries, but it can import the media files directly from the iPhoto Library.
It it a bit late now. It has been easy for six years, all system versions from OS X 10.10.3 to macOS 12 supported it to open an iPhoto Library in Photos, but now on macOS 13 Ventura we can no longer open the iPhoto Library in the successor app "Photos", it has to be done on a Mac with an older system version.
As I recall, in iPhoto, you can go into preferences and select the iPhoto library to use (as with Photos). SO, if you copy your Library to an external drive, be sure to go into the preferences and point iPhoto to the Library you copied to the External drive. THEN, go into Photos and upgrade the Library (which is now on the external drive). To keep things from getting confusing, maybe add a "2" or something to distinguish the library name as you work.
I agree with Yer_Man. It's not the SAME, but the rollover was 7 YEARS ago now. So, there are new features probably workflow changes that you didn't see slowly over time. It may be helpful to look at some older videos discussing iPhoto vs Photos just to get the overall concept changes (not for a how-to or an instructional guide).
I turned on iCloud Photos just last year. That gave me some issues. The switch from iPhoto to Photos was less problematic, IMO. I DO seem to recall issues with red eye removal I did in iPhoto and pics I edited with plug-ins not working right. I had to revert a lot of pics.
I've just made my first slide show in iPhoto and want to set it to music. When I click on the music symbol in the side bar I can see a list of my Apple Music albums but the song titles are in a light font and I can't open or add them to the show.
As a consumer, it should make no difference to me whether the music is played through one Apple program - iTunes - or through another program - iPhoto - en route to the output device, speakers or whatever. You tell me that there's an obvious legal or licensing difference between these two pathways from the hard drive to my ears and my response remains the same - whatever.
I've got to jump in here because I too can see the artist but the songs are grayed out, so I can't add music to the slideshow. In the early 2000's I was able to easily add music to a slide show. In fact as recently as November 2015 I easily added music to a slide show. I don't remember when the Apple Music Subscription service went live but I have been a subscriber from day one. Once we subscribed, we did not need to "own" individual songs anymore -- we had access to the complete library and we could download them when we needed to. So, in our case, we elected not to store our 1000's of purchased songs in the cloud or on our resident computers. Now 1 1/2 years later, in 2017, and we can't use those songs for a slideshow we plan to play on our own computers? Seriously? According to the replies on this thread there's been some kind of change in the copyright requirements. Is the answer that we need to pay $1.29 extra for the songs we want to use with a slideshow? While irritating, is that the solution to the problem?
I called Apple on this. It is as described in this thread. If you get your music from an Apple Music subscription it apparently isn't the same as personally owning the song. If you want a specific song for a slide show you must pay the $.99 or $1.29 and buy it from the iTunes store. But if it is part of your library that you have built using Apple Music, you will need to remove it from your library before you purchase it. Once you've purchased it it will be back in your library (as a purchased ACC audio file) and it can be used for your slide show.
Apple Music was not introduced until 4 years after Steve Jobs died. Before Apple Music one had to burn any iTunes purchased music to CD and then rip to remove the DRM and use the tracks in slideshows, etc. Not sure when the opportunity to purchase DRM free tracks from iTunes was introduced.
Apple stopped attaching DRM to songs purchased from the iTunes Store some time before iTunes Match came out. At that time we could pay once for iTunes Plus and all protected songs have been turned into songs without DRM, if such a version was available at the iTunes Store. iTunes Match did the same.
All songs now for sale in the iTunes Store are iTunes Plus. If you previously bought music with DRM from the iTunes Store, you might be able to download DRM-free versions of your songs with an iTunes Match subscription. The tracks must show as Matched or Purchased in the iCloud Status column in your iTunes library. The same album or song must also still be available in the iTunes Store.
I assumed that DRM wouldn't apply to an Apple program, running music purchased from Apple on an Apple computer. The USP of Apple, apart from killer design, is that their programs and hardware are supposed to be integrated. Obviously not in this case.
That is not the reason, Mike. The problem is, that using a song as a soundtrack for a slideshow will allow you to create a video with this song as a sound track. And this video will no longer have the digital rights attached to the embedded audio file. You cannot use Apple Music in any application that would convert the sound file to a different format and remove the digital rights. You cannot use Apple Music in Photos, Aperture, GarageBand , iMovie either.
You will just have to pay more to get the rights you want. Then you need to purchase individual songs from the iTunes Store instead of using apple Music. Songs you purchase individually are not in a protected format and you can use them in slideshows or in a movie sound track, and convert the format freely.
It's been a while since I did this but I think I had to close down Photos and reopen it. Then when it reopened it was available to use. But I have a short memory so please let me know if this works for you. ?
Perhaps it needs downloading from iCloud. Are you Music in the Cloud? Then play the song in iTunes once or click the download arrow to force the download from iCloud, before you try to access your iTunes Library from Photos.
Its been a while since I did this but if I remember correctly I needed to close Photos and reopen it. At that point the recently purchased song is not grayed out and is available for use. I've got a short memory, however, (I know I closed something down -- think it was photos) so please let me know if this worked for you. ?
That worked! It was there. There is still some issues, as sometimes when I preview the video, the song is playing. Sometimes when I preview, it plays. I don't like the new slideshow as much as the old one. It's not nearly as user friendly. But at least I can use the song. Once I finalize it I think it will be okay. Thanks again!
I have been trying to add a text to a photo. Just text, so I can print te photo with the text on it, however so far have been unsuccessful. I even tried using ipages but to add the text over top of the photo but then it will not allow me to save the image with text into iphotos. Help, I have a class project due shortly and I am stuck!!
There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
The downside with iBorder is that it forces you to save it as a new image file and then reimport it back into iPhoto and a new import. Using one of the 3rd party editors or Preview as the external exitor in iPhoto you can add text to a photo and have it saved as a modified photo like it's done with iPhoto itself.
