Does anyone know how to repair IPHOTO when you get the aperture needs upgrading error?

I just had my MACBook Pro repaired at the Genius Bar and I am still aving issues with IPHOTO.  When I try to open the application I get an error that states I need to upgrade to Aperature 3.3.  I have never had this.  They installed OS X Mavericks.  Could this be why I am getting this error?

Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

    Does anyone know how to do a text search in the new Safari for iPad iOS 7?

    The feature has been removed to make safari even less useable. You need to download a third party browser like atomic web browser to get the functionality you want back.
    Like many new IOS 7 "features", safari on the ipad is a FAIL.
    At least you can now bury safari in a folder containing hundreds of icons that you can only view 9 at a time.

  • Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Thanks. I've tried this and apparently the template I'm using is one of those where it doesn't work. I've tried dragging it as well as cutting a pasting but it always travels back to the end of the book. Maybe I can try changing the template temporarily, move the preface page, and then convert back to the original template. I'll experiment a little.

  • Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper)

    Does anyone know how to use pages so you can export pdfs from the internet and automatically drag words from the document into the file name of the pdf (i.e., author, title of a scientific paper). For example, if I am downloading a paper by smith called "Surgery" that was published in 2002, it will automatically set the file name in the download to smith- surgery 2002. I have heard pages is smart enough to do this.
    thank you

    Pages can export only its own documents. They may be exported as PDF, MS Word, RTF or Text files.
    Pages can import (ie. Open a file as, or Insert a file into, a Pages document) documents in several formats, but won't rename the document as you describe. Documents that can be Opened (eg. Text, AppleWorks 6 WP, MS Word files) are converted to Pages documents, and retain their original names, with .pages replacing the original file extension. Files that can be Inserted (generally .jpg, .pdf and other image files) become part of the existing Pages file and lose their names.
    It may be possible, using AppleScript, to extract the text you want and to Save a Pages file using that text as the filename, but that would depend in part on being able to identify which text is wanted and which is not.
    How will the script determine where the author's name begins and where it ends?
    How will the script recognize the beginning and of the title, an decide how much of the title to use in the filename?
    How will the script recognize the year of publication?
    For papers published in a specific journal, with a strict format for placing each of these pieces on information, or containing the needed information as searchable meta data in the file, this might be possible. But it would require knowledge of the structure of these files, and would probably handle only papers published in a specific journal or set of journals.
    Outside my field of knowledge, but there are some talented scripters around here who might want to take a closer look.
    Best of luck.
    Regards,
    Barry

    Yeah, it's simple. You scan your images singly, then import them. Then, one by one adjust them. Under the adjustment brick, pull up the CURVES tool. It is one of dozens available from the pulldown menu on the left side.
    So, with your image in view, you click on the adjustment tool, select CURVES (which will be at the bottom of a few other adjustment sliders such as EXPOSURE) under the Histogram and then grab the bottom of the right hand curve and swing it all the way to the left. Then grab the left hand curve and drag it all the way to the right.
    The right curve represents highlights. The left curve represents shadows. Now the two are reversed. Your negative is now a positive. For added control, you can create mid-tone curves of your own and make finer adjustments. I haven't done this much so the experts might weigh in here with corrections and added advice.

    does anyone know how to delete songs that came with the iPhone 6 in the music?? i tried deleting them from iTunes but i couldn't.

    I know you already solved this but for future reference, there is also another setting to only keep songs downloaded to your device visible in music.
    Go to Settings --> Music --> Show All Music and make sure it is turned off

  • I have a ibook that i just bought off of someone . does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

    does anyone know waht i have to do to get the internet working on it ?

    Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) is the newest OS you can use with it.
    Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Requirements
    Newer versions won't work; they require faster processors and the last two require Intel processors:
    Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Requirements
    Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Requirements
    Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) System Requirements
    What is the hard drive capacity, and how much space remains available on it?
    The iBook is going on ten years old, so if the hard drive hasn't been replaced, that may be necessary (if not now, soon). A hard drive usually lasts from three to five years.
    An iBook G3 (Dual USB) uses an original AirPort Card (with the 802.11b standard). You need to make sure that your router (or wireless modem) will handle that standard if you want the internal card.
    The reason it's telling you that it's up to date is because you have the last version of Mac OS X 10.3 installed. If you want Tiger, you will have to buy the installation disc(s) for it. Does it have a Combo drive or a CD-ROM drive? The reason I ask is that Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) usually comes on DVD, so it's much easier to install on an iBook which has a Combo drive (which will read DVDs).

  • Does anyone know how to work iPhoto?

    Im trying to work out how to use iphoto?
    I have all these photos that i have taken over the years and now that i have the time to sort them out im not sure what to do with the photos that i havent put into a folder.
    I have put the ones that i want into folders and they still stay in the photo libary but i want to delete them as i have put them in folders? how can i fix this problem??

    Doew anyone know how to use iPhoto?
    Sure - millions and millions and millions of people know how to use iPhoto
    If you want to learn I suggest taking the tutorials - http://support.apple.com/videos#iphoto - and - https://ssl.apple.com/findouthow/photos/
    And if you have questions after going through the tutorials ask here - when you ask you must remember that we know nothing about yoru system or use except what you tell us so we need the versions of iPhoto and the OS, details of what you are doing, what you want to do and what is not working
    And you need to use the same words that others and iPhoto uses - for example in iPhoto folders can not hold photos - foders hold other folders or albums - albums hold photos and you can view the photos in yoru library by events, photos, faces or places
    If by chance you are calling albums folders - and that only a wild guess - then you need to learn that albums are logical things - creating an album and putting photos in it simply creats links in the iPhoto database pointing to the photo in the library so it is not duplicated and you can not remove it from the library (and there is no reason to) since if you remove it form the library it is gone in every view - albms, places, faces, photos, events, etc
