[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1633263"] On such an old version, I'm not sure. If there is a command in iPhoto (under "File") to "switch libraries," then yes, you'd see what other iPhoto libraries are available, and by virtue of having named each one something different (which of course you have done!), you'd know which one you currently have open. If that command isn't there because your version of iPhoto is way old, then the only way is to pick a library, double-click it. iPhoto will open it and that will be the default library opened going forward (unless it is in a remote drive that is no longer available, obviously). This is still very ill-advised. There's a reason Apple made the iPhoto library invisible in recent years: see if you can guess why. This might be fixed by invoking iPhoto's repair dialog, which is done by launching the program with command and option held down. The only way I can think of is to look at the modification dates of the libraries. Hope that helps! [/QUOTE]
