Photos for Mac is preinstalled as a part of Catalina. Look for it in the Applications folder. The icon looks like a flower in rainbow colors.


Double-click Photos while holding down the options key ⌥. When the dialog to select a library appears, relate the options key.

Then select your iPhoto Library to create a Photos Library from the iPhoto Library.
