I had been wanting to upgrade iPhoto ’09 to iPhoto ’11. But I have been reading few horror stories as how the upgrade would kill iPhoto, make it crippled and inaccessible and most importantly trash photos beyond recovery. I did not jump to upgrade right after iPhoto ’11 was announced.
Then, there in fact was an update from Apple. I then followed few discussions on that. Sadly there were either new problems or the patch did not work for many. Then I came across one more patch from Apple. So then I thought I would give it a shot.

Backup
My iPhoto ’09 library is little over 13GB. I had spent LOT of time to edit, enhance and organize my library. I didn’t want to loose ‘any of them’. Even before I had planned the upgrade I had been taking snapshots of it, using Time Machine. In addition to that, I chose to ‘export’ photos by ‘Events’.
Under ‘Export Options’, I chose to save them as originals as otherwise, you have to convert them to JPEG, PNG etc. (those are time-consuming too).
These were copied into a local folder and those were backed up by Time Machine as well, before the upgrade.
Aperture

If you were like me, looking for a push to check out Aperture this would be the time. Aperture has a superb option to either ‘Copy’ of ‘Move’ photos from iPhoto ( iPhoto ’09). Before I started the upgrade, I chose to import using Aperture and it did a fantastic job. So essentially I had another (much more powerful) photo management software handling my photos. I didn’t want to delete all my photos and start from the scratch, even though I think that would have been an easy option. Since I had redundant backup’s I thought I would try to upgrade my 13GB library to see what happens.

Upgrade
Honestly, I find the documentation on the upgrade from Apple, very confusing. If you read the same page (that I pointed earlier), it refers to update 9.0.1, but when you visit the link (pointed), it has the version 9.1.
I was not sure if I had to assume that 9.1 would include 9.0.1.
At least I didn’t find any documentation on that. So I followed the following steps (after taking backups, as listed above)
- Install iPhoto ’11 (version number : 9.x), but do not open it (yet)
- Patch up 9.0.1 [ If you try to run the patch with iPhoto ’09 (version number : 8.x), it will throw errors) ]
- Patch up 9.1 [ again, If you try to run the patch with iPhoto ’09 (version number : 8.x), it will throw errors) ]
- Reboot (not required, but thought I’d just have a clean start)
- Do a software update – Ironically, Apple by then had issued their 2nd update for iTunes (with in 24 hours), not related to iPhoto
- Then I started iPhoto ’11
- It prompted that my library has to be upgraded to be used with iPhoto ’11. I went ahead, it took a while (may be because of the size) and it came to life
- Since I had the entire library in Aperture, comparison (to see if any photo or event is missing) was very easy
- I didn’t miss anything – Events, Photos, Faces (I had painstakingly set, Geo Coordinates) were all intact !
And needless to say, iPhoto ’11 is awesome. Thanks to this exercise I finally got around to play with Aperture as well.
