A Support document containing detailed information about the update is also available.
Knowledge base article HT4431 begins with Apple noting that “Before an existing iPhoto library can be used with iPhoto '11 it must be upgraded.
“This process occurs when you open your library with iPhoto '11 for the first time. In extremely rare cases, if you do not follow the recommendations below during the upgrade process you may experience data loss,” the company acknowledges.
According to Apple, the article outlines the various events that may occur during the library upgrade process. It basically offers advice on how to avoid data loss.
“The library upgrade process is generally safe and reliable, but it's always a good idea to have a backup of your library in case of unforeseen issues,” reads the document.
Before upgrading to iPhoto 11, users must keep in mind that fully upgrading a very large library can take a long time, Apple says, “even up to an hour or more.”
“Before updating to iPhoto ’11, it is recommended that all customers download and install the iPhoto 9.0.1 software update,” the document continues to reveal.
“From the Apple () menu, choose Software Update and check for the iPhoto 9.0.1 Update. You can also manually download the iPhoto 9.0.1 update here. Follow the instructions to install iPhoto 9.0.1 and then reopen iPhoto '11 to complete the update,” goes Apple’s advice.
