Migrating from iphoto to photos6/20/2023 You can read more details about how PowerPhotos converts iPhoto and Aperture libraries, plus see a detailed chart of how it differs from Apple’s earlier Photos migration capabilities. If you want to carry out any more complicated operations-copying, exporting, merging, and so forth-you’ll need a paid license. For many people, conversion might be enough. PowerPhotos developer Brian Webster has made this lifeline broadly available by including library browsing and conversion to a new, standalone Photos library among the features offered with the free version of PowerPhotos. That’s better than nothing, of course, but less than ideal. Before the release of PowerPhotos 2.3, the only option for Ventura users was to import just the photos stored in iPhoto or Aperture libraries, losing albums, stored edit history, and metadata in the process. But there could still be hundreds of thousands of people who never got around to it, or who suddenly find a library on an old backup or Mac. Apple dropped that capability from Ventura, assuming rightly that most people have already made the transition in the 8 years since Photos replaced both iPhoto and Aperture. They also added features beyond what Apple provides, particularly in letting you merge libraries and export subsets of libraries without losing metadata or editing history.įat Cat has upped the ante again with PowerPhotos 2.3, offering a lifeline to users missing support for iPhoto and Aperture migration into Photos in macOS 13 Ventura. Both apps can make changes directly within the wacky packages that Apple built for the Photos and iPhoto libraries.
