I recently had to transfer all of my photos to another computer so I placed the entire iphoto folder on my external HD and figured I would be able to simply drag it back into iphoto on the new computer and it would sort everything into my folders and subfolders.

Not only did it not sort them into my folders/rolls it wasnt even able to import a lot of the photos and just stalled for hours. Am I doing something wrong? Should I import just the jpeg images and not the whole iphoto folder?
Why does iphoto have all these weird numbered folders anyway? It seems as if there is no set pattern to the way it organizes photos. I am starting to hate the program.

Anyone suggest a good alternative?

Thanks in advance
