[QUOTE="HDmojo, post: 1118647, member: 174021"] [b]Sometimes you won't know where that new blank package is though.[/b] IF you browse to the default location 'home\pictures\*' and there isn't a tiny iphoto package, that means iphoto is opening a new package from somewhere else and you need to locate it and delete it. The easiest way I've found to locate the new package that iphoto is opening is to open iphoto, import an image, click on 'photos' on the top left, right-click (or ctrl-click) on that photo and choose 'show file'. This will show you the location of the iphoto package that that file is within. Close iphoto, delete the package you just located (the small new one with just the one photo). Restart iphoto, and then you can point it to wherever you saved your big old iphoto package. [/QUOTE]
