There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Since updating to Mavericks, i can no longer use my USB Ethernet Adopter

    Since updating to Mavericks, i can no longer use my Ethernet USB adopter as the drivers are only supported to the previous version. I need to use this where i work as Mac's cant accsess the wireless. Ive been told the only option restore to the prev OSX.. The only problem is i havnt set up time machine.
    Is there anything i can do to either revert to the original OSX ( the mac is only a month old) or restore to an older version without using timemachine.... Or even better just get my Adoptor to work?
    Any help  would be very much appriciated as i can only go for so long with the internet at work.

  • After updating to Mavericks I can't open iTunes. I keep getting a popup telling me to unclick "run in 32- bit mode" in iTunes info. I have done that several times and rebooted. Everything else seems to be working fine.

    After updating to Mavericks, I can't open iTunes. I keep getting  a pop up telling me iTunes needs to run in 64-bit mode. After following directions several times to go to Finder, iTunes, Get info and "unclick 32-bit mode" it still won't work and i keep getting the smae pop up window. I've rebooted several times also.

    What version of iTunes do you have? The current version of iTunes for Mavericks is 11.1.5 and the default mode is 64 bit. If "Open in 32 bit mode" is checked and you cannot uncheck it are you logged on using an account with administrative priveleges?

  • Just updated to Mavericks and can't open spread sheets in numbers

    Just updated to Mavericks and can't opean spread sheets, says I must update numbers but numbers is already updated?

    Hi REBOS1,
    A key point in the article to which YeOldMacFan links is that you now have two versions of Numbers on your Mac, the new version in your main Applications folder and the old version in a subfolder named iWork '09.
    Both versions can coexist on your Mac, even run at the same time, but you need to make sure you are opening a particular document with the correct version. The old version can't open documents that have been edited in the new version, and that's probably the reason you are getting the error message.
    If you have old documents, it's best to make copies of them and open the copies in the new version, leaving the orginals unchanged.

  • Since I downloaded Mavericks I can't open iPhoto anymore. Does anyone know where i can get a free update?

    Hi,
    I downloaded Mavericks a couple of days ago and since then I can not open my iPhoto (Version 9.2.3.) anymore.
    I cant find a free update...but I dont want to pay for the whole app again.
    What can I do?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You are running iPhoto '11, so you can get the latest iPhoto update for free. Open the Mac App Store, go to Updates and update iPhoto to the latest version.
    If you don't see it, switch the Mac OS X language to English in System Preferences > Language and Region, and restart

  • Since updating to Mavericks I can't use the smart groups in Contacts to send emails.  How do I fix this?

    Since updating to OSX Mavericks I can't use the smart groups in Contacts to address emails. This was not a problem previously.  How do I get the functionality of smart groups restored?

    I discovered this problem this morning after upgarding to Mavericks.
    I've found an easy answer: Apple have changed the way it confirms the addition of Groups it seems.
    Type the name of the group in the Cc: or Bcc: field, hit the Space bar, then hit Enter. Vavoom!!
    Hope this helps.

  • Since upgrading to Maverick, I can't open my emails in aol on my iMac.  Any help?

    Recently upgraded to Maverick (OS X  version 10.9.4) on my IMAC.   I have a mail account on AOL.  Since my upgrade, I can't open any of my messages.  Searched the net and can't seem to get an answer.  Any ideas?

    Two things you can try.
    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
    Rebuild mailbox
    Try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • Updated to Mavericks. Can't open my itunes now?

    My hard drive on my MBP recently crashed, and I had to have it replaced. On the old OS X, I had to download Lion from the App store. When I rebooted my computer with the new hard drive, you have to use Mavericks. Well, I downloaded it, and went through all the steps. I even updated my computer before downloading mavericks so that all my applications would work.
    Unfortunately my itunes won't open. It won't even try. No error code or anything. It just refuses to work. Is there a way to re-install itunes and get rid of the other one that doesn't work? Or do I have to re-install the entire OS X? I tried re-starting, and that did nothing. I even checked for more updates.

    i know you probably have resolved the problem but others may have not. so in case someone else has this problem then try clicking on applications, then right click on itunes, then get info, then change all permissions to "read and write" you should be able to go about your way from there. but if that doesnt work this will for sure.
    i had a problem similar to yours and better yet, i have the fix for it. i downloaded maverick 4 months ago and was without itunes ever since. all itunes icon did was bounce. itunes would never open and whats more, is when i would try to update it, i would get a "thank you for downloading itunes!" page , but the download would never work. so i scoured the net for solves. nothing that worked. <4 months later> then last night i took a new approach. i decided even though maverick would not allow me to uninstall itunes, i would find a way to uninstall itunes. then i would reinstall back to 11.1.5 i was successful and heres what i did. step one-Back up your iTunes Library.itl file, found under ~/Music/iTunes(even tho i didnt, i only had 3 artists in there at the time. and they didnt get erased but i advise you back up just in case.) step two-download itunes 10.7 from apple. i used this link Download it from Apple here(i pulled the link from Aarons website (awesometast.com). you download 10.7 however you want but i used the link above and have had no issues).although im not sure you need to do this step ( you may be able to download 11.1.5 itunes without 10.7, i did because i was following intructions fromhttp://awesometoast.com/downgrading-to-itunes-10-7-from-itunes-11-on-osx/)step 3-open Terminal step 4-enter in these 3 commands hitting return after each line. 1st line nothing seems to happen, 2nd line nothing seems to happen and 3rd line gives you a warning and requires password to continue. when i did it, my password didnt appear as i entered it and i hit return without looking, so i entered it in again, although im not sure i had to the 2nd time.
    killall iTunes
    killall "iTunes Helper"
    sudo rm -rf /Applications/iTunes.app/
    step 5-drag off and dump the itunes icon (which now has the ? shadow in it) off your dock. step 6-install 10.7 itunes you downloaded earlier. (not sure if this part is neccesary. you may be able to just download 11.1.5 but i downloaded 10.7 because i was following Aarons steps.) itunes now works. step 7-go to apple and update to 11.1.5 itunes. install it. open it and you have itunes 11.1.5 in perfect working order. assuming you have a decent internet speed for the downloads, the whole process takes very little time. with those steps above, you can solve itunes just bouncing and not launching issues and also the "thank you for downloading" and nothing downloads issue. enjoy. also i would like to give a shout out to http://awesometoast.com and thank Aaron for the knowledge that enabled me to get itunes back into my life

  • Updated to Maverick. Can not open many PDFs now.

    I updated my Mac to Maverick last night. This morning I went  to open a PDF and got an error:
    I get this error with every PDF in this directory. I have found I can open PDF's in other directories fine. I can open the PDF's in Illustrator, Photoshop and Preview without issue. The PDFs were working fine yesterday on a Mac and PC. The PDF's live on a server and still open in acrobat on other PC's and Mac's that are connected to the server, just not on mine. Any ideas on what I can do to resolve this?
    I have Acrobat 9.5 Pro.

  • Since updating to Mavericks, I can't transfer files to my External HD!!

    Why? I never had this problem prior to updating.

    Firewire or thunderbolt hard drive of ANY Mfg?.......... or USB WD using WD Drive Manager?.........OR just a WD hard drive of any kind using WD Drive Manager ?
    FIrewire & Thunderbolt drives are having issues with Mavericks and HD using WD Drive Manager , avoid same until a fix is issued if you can.
    many are reporting same, there is a firewire fault and TB HD on external HD from LaCie (Seagate) and from WD especially.
    Technicians are looking into it.
    Until there is resolution, consider setting up a USB ext. Time machine HD.
    Until then consider confining Mavericks use with USB HD.
    Ive tested a very long line of USB HD on Mavericks, all seem fine.
    *However some are reporting now even USB HD are having problems IF they are running WD software
    Recommend  DO NOT ATTACH any WD MyBook externals (firewire, thunderbolt or otherwise).     
    I dont have same to test, so I dont know if the problem is in the firmware on the SATA bridge or if its a problem with the WD software

  • I updated to Mavericks and can't open iTunes

    I keep getting a report that says "iTunes quit unexpectedly while using the PubSub plugin". Anyone know what could be going on here?

    I had the same issue, only I got a blank box popup with an ok button. Click the ok and it shuts down what little of iTunes may have been open.
    Downloading and re-installing iTunes did the trick for me.

  • Since updating iOS yesterday, I can't open the Podcast app.

    I updated last night and when I tap on the icon today, the screen goes white for a second and then goes back to the homepage.
    Any suggestions?

    What format are these videos in ?
    You may have to get a suitable app from the App store.
