Photos replaced iPhoto years ago. Photos can convert your iPhoto Library. Launch Photos with the option key held down. From the resulting dialog, choose your iPhoto Library. Photos will create a new Library from your iPhoto Media. Your iPhoto Library will not be changed.


Note that Photos works a little differently than iPhoto, so expect a bit of a learning curve.
