[QUOTE="usagora, post: 1814104, member: 60390"] And if you're referring to folders with photos in them that you are managing yourself (vs having imported them into Photos), then simply connect your external drive to your new iMac, open the external hard drive in Finder and drag those folders containing the photos to wherever you want to keep them on your internal hard drive. That will copy them over. You can delete the originals (on the external drive) if you wish after confirming they all copied over successfully. [/QUOTE]
