Is there a way to move a library out of Aperture and into iPhoto while retaining all of the project information, tags, etc.?

Todd,

No, it’s a one-way street. Why do you want to go back to iPhoto?

Although you can take the Aperture preview image back into iPhoto using the Aperture viewer within iPhoto.

Just my three ha’porth. I maintain my elderly parents iPad from my Mac and they have an account with iPhoto. So, I don’t know why Todd wants to do it, but I’d like to be able to export stuff my parents would like to see with faces and places intact into their iPhoto.

David,

Places should be intact if you just export a JPG and bring that to iPhoto, because all it’s doing is reading the embedded GPS coordinates then geo-matching them on the map.

Faces though it probably can’t do, because while naes from Faces will get exported as keywords on the file, you won’t have the placement relationship so you won’t get to use the “Faces” interface in iPhoto. I’m guessing here, but that’s logical.
