IPhoto does not recognize formate of photos after lost os x 10.9 update

I have a macbook pro after last update iphoto does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures.

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? What do you mean by :does not recognize the formate of a lot of my pictures."? Are these photos already imported into the library? What do you see when you open iPhoto?

I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

IPhoto does not recognize old backup of library

I have a iPhoto library backup disk (dvd) that dates back to 2006. Iphoto does not recognize the photos and they will not open. How do I get to see the photo's?
Iphoto 11
iMac 2.4 ghz intel core duo
OS 10.6.8

The only thing I can think of is that the Library is corrupted in some way. Unusual that the main computer can access it - though it rebuilds the thumbs each time, whiile the other two cannot. I suspect that the permissions warnings are bogus.
Neither of the other machines would be able to read that library without updating it, and in fact, once the 9.5.1 version updates it, the 9.4.3 version wouldn't be able to read it either.
But either way, each library should ask to upgrade it upon opening, that the don't suggests that the Library is damaged.
You need to decide what version you want to want to view this library with - as you can't view it with either of the other two once you upgrade it. Then from that machine rebuild the Library with iPhoto Library Manager.
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.

Iphoto does not recognize email/password combo

I'm trying to email some pictures but it keeps saying that iphoto does not recognize my email or password combinations for both mine and my husbands accounts.

Have you got iPhoto as the email client or Mail? If iPhoto go into iPhoto's Accounts preference pane, deelete the email account, reboot, relaunch iPhoto and add the account back. Then try again.
Or, set Mail as the email client in iPhoto's General preference pane. It's a better way to go, IMO, as you have better access to Contacts, get a sent copy automatically and also have photo layouts to use in the Stationary/Photos section of Mail.

PCI-GPIB does not like returning from computer power-save mode. I need to restart the application. Uggh! Customer not happy.

It seems volatile memory is lost on the PCI GPIB Card. When the system returns from power-save, I cannot get to my GPIB instruments. I have to close the application and restart it. I've tried unregistering and reregistering the gpib globals and resetting the device interfaces (reissuing the ibdev command) without luck. I am using Visual Basic 6, but I also get the Measurement and Automation Explorer to fail in the same way, so I don't think it is my development environment.

Can you change your power save settings? What operating system
are you running?
Also, some BIOS's have options for power save. For example, recent
IBM's can be set to maintain power to all peripherals, or only to main
memory. Of course, you would want it to maintain power.
I suspect the GPIB board and its driver are completely unable to
handle power save operation. It probably was never considered while
it was being designed.

IPhoto does not recognize Tiff format

I am trying to import my photos in TIFF ext however I get a response from iPhoto that it does not recognize the format.
What I am doing wrong?
thank You!

Did this test in the begging, and it doies not give me the option to create a new library.... : /
Then you're not holding the correct key or not holding it long enough while launching.
But I could import all to Aperture and then from iPhoto import the pictures......however when in the iPhoto library they have been "converted" to JPEG file and lost all quality...the same picture in Aperture (TIFF) has 36MB while in the iPhoto after I imported 684KB!!
You need to understand how to use Aperture. You're getting the Aperture Previews, not the original files.

Iphoto does not recognize .jpg format

Any advice on why iphoto will not recognize a format that it has in the past

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

Search the forum. There are lots of posts from Kodak owners with a similar issue. Workaround: use a USB Card Reader, Reformat the card with your Camera.

IPhoto does not recognize iPhone4/Does not download Camera Roll

I have tried to download my photos and videos from Camera Roll on my iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) into my iPhoto '09. It used to do it automatically a year ago, but now iPhoto does not respond when I plug in my phone through the USB connector cable.
1. I have tried this: http://leimobile.com/faq-how-to-fix-ios-5-photo-sync-issues/ by deleting the iPod Photo Cache, but iPhoto still does not respond when I plug my iPhone into my Mac.
2. I have tried Image Capture, but it did not recognize my iPhone 4 either. It does "download" the JPG files but the program stalls as it waits to detect a camera device.
3. I have turned off Photo Stream in my iPhone Settings menu.
Please help, because I need to have many photos from Camera Roll onto my computer for work... I am sending the important ones one by one through email!

Restarted my computer... iPhoto now recognizes my iPhone.

IPhoto Does Not Recognize File

No search. I have a file that iPhoto will not recognize. I made a jpeg and tiff, and it will open in Preview and Photoshop, but not iPhoto. Says it doesn't exist, or is corrupt. Neither is true. Any help is appreciated.

Claude
Where is the file? Have you put it into the iPhoto Library Folder? iPhoto will not import pics from there - a sensible precaution against duplication.

Iphoto 10 not able to download photos from kodak digital camera.

Working fine every time till recently and now the thumbnails have no image, just blank boxes and won't import new photos.
error message returned "can't access photo" or similar

Kodak cameras have been giving trouble for a while now. You can read more about it in these topics:
iPhoto no longer recognizes photos from my Kodak EasyShare V803
Re: Does the latest OS (10.6.8) have issues with iPhoto downloads from Kodak cameras?
Help with Kodak Easyshare v1253 camera
So far have not seen a fix for the problem. A workaround is to use a card reader to upload the photos to the Desktop and then import into iPhoto.

IPhoto does not play movies from digital camera

When transfering photos and movies to iPhoto, the movies are not playing in iPhoto.
Error message:
THE MOVIE CAN'T BE OPEN. YOU MAY NEED TO INSTALL ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE TO PLAY THIS KIND OF FILE
I am using iPhoto '09 v8.1.2 and QuickTime Player 10.0 on Snow Leopard 10.6.3
I deleted QuickTime 7 Pro after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
My digital camera is a Pentax Optio S6 that creates movies in the MPEG-4 format. The ending of the movie file after transfer to the Mac is .avi
What Codec do I need? Or should I reinstall QuickTime 7 Pro?

Try install Perian
