[QUOTE="poppi, post: 1870378, member: 214058"] The photos file to which I refer was named iPhoto in an earlier O/S version.When I upgraded to 10.11.6 it became photos. It's icon is in the dock and I open it by 2x clicking on that icon. When I import photos to the iMac i send them there (currently 10,500 photos). I religiously assign key words to the photos, largely the names of people in the photo. When I see a photo in my rotating desktop that I want to find I type the names in the search box and search by key word. One example - I recently saw an older photo of my mother snd father in law on the desk top and searched by her name, his name, both names, and the year, none of which worked. The mystery is that photo on the desk top came from somewhere but it is definitely not in the PHOTOS database. I should mention that my desktop setting in System preferences is set to "Photos" Hope this helps poppi [/QUOTE]
