Update to Yosemite now iPhoto does not work

Upgraded to Yosemite. Now the iPhoto says that I need to upgrade to the latest version. It goes on to say that "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I then search the app store and it says "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Canadian Store". What do I do? Thank you for any help.

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

    What OS X version did you upgrade from? What iPhoto version did you have before upgrading? You cannot upgrade a version of iPhoto from a pre-10.10.2 OS X version installation. You needed iPhoto 9.6.1.

  • FaceTime and Messages stopped working on my MacBook after I updated to Yosemite. Handoff does not work either. How can I fix this?

    Before I updated to Yosemite, I could FaceTime other people and Message other people with the MacBook Pro apps. However, after I updated to Yosemite, they stopped working. I get "not delivered" feedback on Messages, and "call failed" on FaceTime. I made sure that both have the correct emails checked and unchecked in the settings as my iPod, and made sure that the "make calls from" or "begin new conversations from" coincide with my handheld Apple media player.
    Am I not doing something? Am I doing something wrong?
    Any feedback would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • IPhoto does not work under Yosemite

    I just installed Yosemite and iPhoto does not seem to be working. It says that I have to update iPhoto and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?

    and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?
    Which version of iPhoto do you have?
    If your version of iPhoto is not an iPhoto '11 version but iPhoto `09 or earlier, you cannot update iPhoto but need to buy the upgrade.
    In that case   go straight for the "Featured" tab of the App Store, enter iPhoto into the search field and buy iPhoto 9.6.

  • Prompted to update iTunes today and now it does not work.  tried reinstalling and caanot successfully reinstall.

    prompted to update iTunes today and now it does not work.  tried reinstalling and caanot successfully reinstall.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • HT3180 In the middle of the updating, iTV was unplugged. Now it does not work at all. Do you have experience, what to do now?

    In the middle of the updating, iTV was unplugged. Now it does not work at all. Do you have experience, what to do now?

    Ouch.  I am afriad the news is not good.  If there is no longer a working firmware instance on ATV there is nothing you can do.  That's why it has that message about not unplugging it during the update.
    Nothing happens when you plug it in?

    Just updated my iPad with iOS 7 and now internet does not work anymore, how to fix if???? Desperate

    Try resetting your iPad:
    Double click the Home button. Slide up with one finger on ALL your apps to close them.
    Then, Press the Sleep/Wake button + Home button and hold 15 seconds or until you see the Apple logo.
    This will reset your device without erasing data, apps or settings.

    I recently updated my ipad wifi only to the new ios 6.1.2 and initially I had the auto cover lock option which can be seen in the Generals tab, but then it stoped working!! Before the update, the auto cover lock worked fine. So after trying all the options, I then did a complete reset on the ipad and now its gone all together from the General tab!! I can no longer see the "auto cover lock" option.
    The iPad cover lock is for when you use a cover with magnets in it to lock and unlock the iPad when you close the cover or open it. Try running a refrigerator magnet along the sides of the iPad and see if that trips the iPad Cover Lock back into the settings.
    That is not the same thing as the iPad Auto Lock setting which allows you to set an allotted time before the iPad goes to sleep.
    You can try resetting all settings to see if the Auto Lock feature retinrs to the iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. This can be a little time consuming re-entering all of the device settings again.

  • My Iphoto does not work properly, after downloading Mavericks.  How can I fix it ?  loading Mavericks

    My Iphoto does not work properly after downloading Maverick. How can I fix it ?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you mean by not working properly? Explain in detail.
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Changed icon now iPhoto does not respond

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me, I went a bit silly changing my folder icons, but have now found that iPhoto does not work. I did change the icon for my pictures folder, and the data is still there, but now when I try to open iPhoto it just says 'loading library' and nothing happens. I am using iPhoto 4.0.3.
    Thanks
    G4 Powermac   Mac OS X (10.3.2)  

    HI, Stuart. Changing a folder's icon puts an invisible icon file inside the folder, so you changed your iPhoto Library folder's contents without iPhoto's participation or knowledge, and now iPhoto sees its database as damaged. This is a useful lesson in letting well enough alone, particularly where no useful purpose is actually served by your meddling. "Purely cosmetic" tweaks of the user interface can have more-than-cosmetic adverse effects on how things work (or don't).
    Delete your custom icon from the folder, then hold down the Shift and Option keys while starting iPhoto. Keep holding them down until you're asked whether you want the database rebuilt. Say Yes and let iPhoto do its work. You will probably get everything back again in good shape.
    If your adventures with custom icons haven't messed anything else up, you're probably lucky.
