Ok, we got new computers nearly a year ago or maybe over a year ago. I transferred all my stuff immediately, but Mrs Duckryder wanted to start fresh and work through her old documents on her old computer. This proved to be a daunting task.

She's very anti cloud and will not use iCloud after a few bad experiences. I strongly suspect this would wreck her notes in contacts and so forth as well.

- How to deal with 2 Photos libraries and keep then from intermingling.
