When I try to open iPhoto (9.2.1) it says 'You can't use this version of the application iPhoto with this version of OS X.  All my photos are on there.  Please help.  Thank you.

Did you upgrade to a new MacOS X version? Then you need to update iPhoto as well.
Only iPhoto 9.6 is compatible with MacOS X 10.10 Yosemite.  Update from the Mac App Store.
Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Check the "Updates" tab of the App Store for an iPhoto update and run the update.
When you laugh iPhoto after the update, it will warn you, that the library needs upgrading, That may take a while.
Just in case that you see a warning, that the update is not possible because of an error message: "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, but do not empty the Trash, so you can put iPhoto back, if need be.
Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/

    Title: Urinalysis Quality Control  
    1.0 Purpose:
    The purpose of this work instruction is to define the procedure for performing Urinalysis Quality Control.
    2.0 Scope:
    This work instruction covers the Laboratory personnel in the Hematology Department.
    3.0 Definitions:
    3.1 ml = Milliliter
    3.2 RPM = Revolutions per Minute
    3.3 C = Centigrade
    3.4 UA = Urinalysis
    4.0 Procedures:
    4.1 Principle
    MAS Liquid Urinalysis Control is intended for use in the clinical laboratory as a urine control for qualitative urinalysis procedures and microscopic sediment analysis.
    4.2 Reagents and Equipment
    4.2.1 MAS Liquid Urinalysis Control Level 1
    4.2.2 MAS Liquid Urinalysis Control Level 3
    4.2.3 Centrifuge
    4.2.4 Urine centrifuge tubes
    4.2.5 Urinalysis Reagent Strips
    4.2.6 Icto test tablets and mats
    4.2.7 Clinitest tablets
    4.2.8 16x100 test tubes
    4.2.9 pipettes or Kova petters 
    4.2.10 glass slide and coverslip or Kova slide
    4.2.11 Microscope
    4.3 Frequency
    The controls for instrument urinalysis and microscopic analysis should be run once each day of testing in the morning, and again every 8 hours.  
    4.4 Procedural Steps
    4.4.1 Compare the lot number printed on the MAS Liquid UA Control insert in the package with the lot number of the appropriate bottle of MAS control; they should match.  
    4.4.2 Thoroughly mix the contents of the vial before each use by gently inverting the vial several times.
    4.4.3 After labeling a clean centrifuge tube for the control to be tested, open the vial and pour 12ml of the appropriate MAS control into it.   Allow the control in the tube to equilibrate to room temperature and test in the same manner as an unknown specimen; follow the directions for using the Urisys 2400 (see Urinalysis procedure), refractometer, clinitest tablets (when applicable), and ictotest tablets (when applicable) (see Back up Urinalysis procedure).
    4.4.4 Return the unused portion of control to storage between 2-8°C. immediately after removing the above amount.  It will remain stable for 30 days if stored between 2-8°C. and kept tightly capped.
    4.4.5 Centrifuge the MAS control for 5 minutes at 1500 rpms and examine microscopically in the same manner as an unknown.
    4.5 Reagent Lot Change
    4.5.1 If urine reagent lots change, a new calibration must be performed and (dipsticks, alternate test reagent lots, etc…) QC must be run on UA controls and compared to the new lot readings. This is to verify the performance of the new reagent lot. Log the lot number of the new reagent on the logsheet and the results.
    4.6 Expected Results
    The lot number specific MAS control expected results are printed on the corresponding value sheet insert found in each box of MAS control bottles.
    Form number F-WI-HEM-052-A is used to record all Urinalysis control results.  Use the following procedure to complete form F-WI-HEM-052-A.
    4.6.1 At the beginning of each month, fill in the following information across the top of form F-WI-HEM-052-A for each level of control to be used.
    4.6.1.1 Month and Year
    4.6.1.2 Level of control being tested
    4.6.1.3 Lot number and expiration date of the control
    4.6.1.4 Transpose the Reagent Strip/Method specific
                         expected range for each parameter being used in
                         Urinalysis testing from the corresponding lot
                         number/control level value sheet.
    4.6.2 On the line corresponding to the current date and time (am or pm) of use, record the results of each parameter tested into the appropriate column.  Review ranges for each parameter to ensure that the control is achieving the expected value.
    4.6.3 Record the result of all refractometer testing, Icto test (when applicable), and clinitest (when applicable) into the appropriate column across from the day of testing.  Review ranges to ensure that the control is achieving the expected value.
    4.6.4 Record the microscopic test results for WBC and RBC into the appropriate column across from the day (am only) of testing.
    4.6.5 The person who performs the test is to place their initials in the Tech column for the current day and time (am or pm) of use to signify that the control ran as expected and patient testing can be performed.  If the control fails to perform as expected, rerun the testing on a fresh aliquot of control.  If it again fails to perform as expected, obtain a new bottle of control and retest on an aliquot from the new bottle.  If after rerunning the test on the fresh bottle the results are still out of expected range, notify supervisor and discontinue patient testing.

    I now use the TenFourFox browser on our remaining PowerPC Macs including a G4 PowerBook. Web sites see it as a newer version of FireFox tha and G4 can support and you get much better compatibility. Wikipedia info/history here:

    Downside: the last version of TFF that supports plug-ins was V17 so current versions won't play Flash animations. Even when TFF played Flash, the old G-series Mac processors were struggling with modern web video content, so you are not losing much.
    If you must have smooth-playing web video, you'll need a new computer, as very little web video content is optimized for our PowerPC processors on old Macs.

    Why did you mark your post as solved?
    You will be better off posting in either the Lion or the iPhoto forum areas as this area is for Macbook Pro issues.  You are having software issues.

  • When I try to open Iphoto by clicking on the icon, it doesn't open but instead the App Store opens... what to do ?

    What is your current iPhoto version? If you just upgraded to Mavericks, you may need to update iPhoto as well. With Mavericks you should be using iPhoto 9.5.1 for full compatibility.  If your current version is iPhoto 9.x.y or later,you can update for free from the App Store; but if your iPhoto is older, you need to purchase the upgrade.

  • I just did a software update that was apparently for iPhoto. When I try to open iPhoto it stops at "step 5" and will not go further. what do I do?

    I just did a software update that was apparently for iPhoto. When I try to open iPhoto it stops at "step 5" and will not go further. what do I do?

    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

  • I just upgraded to os 10.9.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I am told that the version I have(9.3), is not compatible with the os. But it came with it when I upgraded. What do I have to do to get an iPhoto that works with 10.9.5? TIA

    I just upgraded to os 10.9.5 on my 15 " macbook pro from os 10.7.5. When I try to open iPhoto, I get the message that it is not compatible with the os. How can that be??? It came with the upgrade. It says the version of iPhoto is 9.3. How do I get an iPhoto that works with os 10.9.5? TIA

    This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgradeto iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
    Note 1:  every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
    Note 2:  If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1

    i have apps to be updated but when i try to update them a message pops out saying "You have updates for other accounts, please sigh in with the other id". Can some one help me how can i still update the same with the new apple id ive created. As i dont have the access to the earlier id anymore.

    You cannot. The apps are assigned to that Apple ID and there is nothing you can do to change that. You could choose to download them again with the new Apple ID, any paid apps will need to be purchased again.
    Hope that helps.

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    That's a problem that all users of a second-hand Mac released after the OS X Lion launch have. OS X, iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand are registered to the Apple ID the first owner used to register the computer, so you can't use them legally without repurchasing them. Furthermore, there's a bigger problem: you have to get iPhoto, iMovie and GarageBand on a DVD, because the App Store makes impossible to purchase these applications on a second-hand Mac.
    Nothing will happen if they are already installed, but you won't be able to reinstall and update them, so I recommend you to delete them and buy iLife '11 on a DVD to install the applications from there. Also, take note that you can't also reinstall OS X, so if OS X gets damaged, you will have to take your computer to an Apple Store.
    Open  > About this Mac, and tell us the OS X version you have. If you are using OS X Lion, you can upgrade to Mountain Lion with your Apple ID, so then you will be able to reinstall OS X
