Just bought Photoshop Lightroom, but am having problems accessing iPhoto. Can anyone help. I've never used it before, and have 16,000 photos to access.

Appreciate any help available.

Never used Photoshop Lightroom, but I believe you have to export your iPhoto images into a compatible format, and import them into Photoshop Lightroom.

The two apps have different indexing, so won't automatically just work together

Have you set Photoshop Lightroom as your external editing option in iPhoto's - Preferences - General - Edit Photo?

It should then just be a matter of right clicking on an image to open/launch Photoshop Lightroom

Any joy MMF - PMA? Forgot to ask if you are using Lightroom to edit or organise your collection?

Hi DireTribe. Managed it a slightly different way. Imported, anyway. However the challenge will be exporting. I'm trying out lightroom for both, and aim to get Photoshop Elements in a week's time. I have more time on my hands, currently, and want to get more experienced with photography.
