That includes potentially losing metadata, location tagging, and edits. Lots of stuff doesn’t get included, so you’re left with exporting the photos but not a lot of the hard work you may have put into it. The problem with export is that iPhoto is terrible about exporting data. You have a few different paths to take, although you will lose something no matter which route you opt for. There’s no tool in iPhoto or Photos for merging libraries, and you can only import photos and folders of photos from within Photos. Select an item to see the path to distinguish among generic and same-named entries. Photos allows you to select among iPhoto libraries to convert and Photos native libraries. Choose the last option, Rebuild Database. You’ll be prompted to repair the library. Launch iPhoto and hold down Option to select a library, but then hold down Command and Option when clicking Choose. (If you have trouble with Photos stalling during an import, I recommend rebuilding the iPhoto library first.
