[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1647164"] Who cares if you can't copy the iPhoto *application* from one partition to another? That's not where the photos are. The photos are in the file/package called iPhoto Library. THAT's the only thing that needs to be moved over (well, might as well copy the whole Pictures folder really). Any later iPhoto you install on your more updated partition will be able to read that old iPhoto Library. The Pictures folder (and iPhoto Library specifically) are located in your home folder on the older partition. And ffs start backing up your photos!! [/QUOTE]
