1. One of my customers has a MacBook Air and an iPhone 4s. She’s become accustomed to taking pictures with her iPhone and having them arrive, via iCloud’s Photo Stream service, in iPhoto on her MacBook Air a short time later. It worked great for a long, long time. Until it stopped.
  2. A huge chunk of the fun that you’ll find on the web is the ability to download images and other files to your MacBook. If you’ve visited a site that offers files for downloading, typically you just click the Download button or the download file link, and Safari takes care of the rest.

Any ideas on how to get my photos library to load on an older version?

Photos cannot open a library, that has been updated to a newer version the version you are currently running.

You can downgrade your Photos Library by uploading them to iCloud Photo Library on the Mac with macOS 10.13.4 nd download the photos from iCloud Photo lIbrary to a new, empty Photos Library with macOS 10.13.1.

This will save all photos and albums, but the projects will be lost, because iCloud Photo Library does not store the projects.


It would be much less trouble however to upgrade your MacBook Air to the same version as the other Mac. Then you can save your projects as well and do not need the paid cloud storage.
