Transferring iPhotos from one machine to Photos on another machine. Hi, first time here so please be kind. I have a MacBook 13” late 2009 that has iPhoto ‘09 version 8.1.12 (424) running OS 10.9.5. (13F1911) I would like to be able to transfer the photos on there to my MacBook Air Retina 13” 2019 with Photos v.8.0 (511.0.180) running on OS Ventura 13.0.1. What is the best and hopefully easiest way to do this please? TIA for your help.
