Attempting install iPhoto '11 gave me "plist parsing error". Help!

I just installed OS X Lion because it was required for the new iCloud features on the iPhone. I have everything working smoothly on my 27" iMac 3.2Ghz Intel Core i3 and it's working well with my iPhone. I went to enable it on my macbook and it told me I have the old version of iPhoto. When I attempt to install the new version of iPhoto '11 however (from the App store) it gives me the error "The application could not be downloaded. plist parsing error". Can anyone tell me what might be causing this so I can get my macbook up and running iCloud stuff!?
Thanks

Check if it actually downloaded an installed.  I had the same error happen to me not 10 minutes ago but found when I looked in the applications folder it was actually installed and there.
Edit: after shutting down the app store, running iphoto once, closing it and then re-openign the app store it shows iphoto as fully installed.  Hopefully that means it will keep it up to date.  (BTW, I had to login to my account in the app store and click on "show hidden apps" and unhide iphoto for some reason first.)

  • Can't log in to Apple store; 'plist parsing error' after STATUS_CODE_ERROR

    Two week old 15" MacBook Pro. I had two updates this morning, xCode command line tools and iMovie.
    The xCode command line tools installed and restarted the laptop.
    After that, I couldn't log in to the Apple Store to install iMovie; I got a STATUS_CODE_ERROR in the lower left hand of the login dialog.
    I quit the App Store app, then restarted it, and tried to install iMovie again.
    I still couldn't log in to the Apple Store to install iMovie; I got a plist parsing error in the lower left hand of the login dialog.
    There is an Apple Support Communities string for STATUS_CODE_ERROR that has 1800+ entries, seems to be global.

    same,same

    May be it depends on selling to much things in too short time; new products!?

  • Showing users fills logs with plist parser errors?

    I'm starting with a clean 10.9.4 install, updated to 10.9.5, and installed server 3.2.1. I then set up a new Open Directory domain and using Workgroup Manager imported a bunch (377) of users that I had exported from my existing 10.8 installation.  Everything appears to have gone smoothly, and works as expected, however whenever I click on the users entry in Server.app, I get thousands (around 3,300 to be exact) of entries like the following in my console:
    9/22/14 9:55:36.799 AM Server[371]: CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary on line 1. Parsing will be abandoned. Break on _CFPropertyListMissingSemicolon to debug.
    From what I can tell, these entries aren't indicative of any functional issues, but I would really like to know what is causing them, and how to stop them. Thanks!

    I don't see any syntax errors in your code. I assume from your first sentence that the code worked fine in your local testing environment. That raises two possibilities:
    The path to the Zend Framework is incorrect.
    If the path is OK, the other possibity is that your remote server doesn't support PDO. Check phpinfo() on the remote server.

    My dad bought a new retina macbook pro over a year ago.

    "to update this application, sign into the account you used to purchase it"
    We are logged into the only account that he has ever had.

  • Designer.xml Fatal Parsing Error

    I ran into a little snag working with a new web page. When I
    fired up DreamWeaver CS4 it gave a fatal parsing error associated
    with the designer.xml file. DreamWeaver would sit and spin its
    wheels and would not load. After trying several things to fix it,
    and with an extreme desire to not go through a complete reinstall,
    I decided to rename the designer.xml file and restart DreamWeaver.
    Cool part is it worked. DreamWeaver created a new designer.xml file
    and all seems to be functioning properly.

  • "The product distribution file could not be verified" while attempting to install iPhoto

    Hello,
    I have accidentally deleted my iPhoto '11 application, because the iPhoto icon was showing up twice in the Applications (F4 key) and I wanted to clear the space up.
    I have disks that came with my MacBook but they are somewhere that are inaccessible at the moment and I urgently need to reinstall iPhoto.
    I have tried going to the App Store and installing iPhoto through Purchases, but "The product distribution file could not be verified" error shows up.
    I have tried the method of using Console + deleting my 9n /var/folders and the Keychain Access OCSP and CRL methods to no avail. I even tried the Mac OS X Recovery.
    Bottom line is, I don't know where the root of the problem lies and if I'm working on an atrociously wrong tangent. I am going to bring my MacBook to an Apple Store ASAP but am hoping to get some help here even sooner.
    Thanks.

    Hot dang, I found something that worked for me!
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57530446-263/fix-corrupt-mac-app-store-down loads/
    Basically you execute a command in the Terminal Utility, delete your Appstore cache and relaunch App Store which now allows me to download iPhoto '11!

  • Time machine osx 10.6.8 problem slow backupd CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary. mdworker32 kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.

    Hello Guys I have a problem that I can not get to the bottom.
    Time Machine has suddenly stopped working it really slow to make up. Copy a few kb at a time and long hours it takes to close the back. (up to a few tens of megs, 10, 20 Mb).
    I made ​​the following list of tests that will follow along with the log file.
    First of all I made ​​a copy as root with Carbon Copy Cloner disk of the iMac. (So that they can go back in case of disaster)
    Following the guides Pondini (pondini.org) I did the following steps:
    1) Changed the internfaccia FW800 to USB hard drive (does not change anything, still slow)
    2) Changed to another external HD for time machine with FW800 and USB (nothing changes still slow)
    3) Recreated the full backup with Time Machine on either drive (still slow)
    4) Reinstalled the 10.6.8 Combo Pack (still slow)
    5) Re spootlight indexed with the disk (still slow)
    6) At this point, in desperation I reinstalled on the internal drive of my iMac 10.6.8 creating a new user, User Migration Assistant from my hd clone with Carbon Copy Cloner. Recreated the full backup with Time Machine.
    The first full backup is fast, but slow incremental backups are back (as to 'start a few kb at a time).
    I compared the log files with those of my other machine with same configuration and I found these errors:
    backupdir [19376]: CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData (): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary.
    mdworker32 [20950]: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint () to catch errors logged as They Are.
    You know help me? I saw that this error is from 10.5 to 10.7, but no one has found a real solution to the issue.
    I never installed antivirus software and tried with different external drives COPN capacity equal to or greater than the external drive. Only at the end I tried to divide the external drive to back up into two parts by a 1.5 TB and 500 GB but with the same mistakes that I have described.
    thanks
    Stefano
    Ciao  Ragazzi ho un problema a cui non riesco a venire a capo.
    improvvisamente time machine ha smesso di funzionare va veramente lento a fare backup. Copia pochi kb alla volta e impiega tanto tempo ore per chiudere il backup. (backup di poche decine di mega, 10, 20 Mb).
    Ho effettuato le seguenti prove che vi elenco di seguito insieme al file log.
    Prima di tutto ho fatto una copia  come utente root con Carbon Copy cloner del disco del imac.(in maniera tale di poter tornare indietro in caso di disastro)
    Seguendo le guide di Pondini (pondini.org) ho effettuato i seguenti passaggi:
    1) Cambiato internfaccia del disco rigido da FW800 a USB (non cambia nulla, sempre lento)
    2) Cambiato hd esterno con un altro per time machine con FW800 e USB (non cambia nulla sempre lento)
    3) Ricreato il full Backup con time machine su entrambe i dischi (sempre lento)
    4) Reinstallato il Combo pack 10.6.8 (sempre lento)
    5) Re indicizzato con spootlight il disco (sempre lento)
    6) A questo punto preso dalla disperazione ho reinstallato sul disco interno del mio imac il 10.6.8 creando un nuovo utente, Assistente migrazione utente dal mio hd clonato con Carbon copy cloner. Ricreato il backup completo con time machine.
    Il primo full backup è veloce, ma i backup incrementali sono tornati lentissimi (come all' inizio pochi kb alla volta).
    Ho confrontato il file log con quelli di un mio altro mac con la stessa configurazione ed ho trovato questi errori:
    backupd[19376]: CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary.
    mdworker32[20950]: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
    Sapete darmi aiuto? Ho visto che questo errore è presente dal 10.5 al 10.7 ma nessuno ha trovato una vera soluzione alla questione.
    Non ho mai installato software antivirus ed ho provato con diversi dischi esterni copn capacità uguale o superiore al disco esterno. Solo alla fine ho provato a dividere il disco esterno del backup in due parti una da 1,5TB e una da 500 Gb ma con i medesimi errori che vi ho descritto.
    grazie
    Stefano

    Thanks for the quick response.
    I followed the steps you listed and also remove the files that were creating problems spootlight, including the audio plugin and the panel preferences file.
    Then I stopped by the timemachine reindexed spootlight 'option in the preferences panel spootight privacy. After I restarted my iMac and formatted the external drive again, Time Machine and restarting a full backup. This morning after a quick full backup and disk indexing completed incremental backups are always slow. Proceeds with a few kb at a time. I resend you the log files and screen capture. My iMac is constantly backed up.
    Thank you for your time.

  • I attempted to update iTunes yesterday and I thought the process completed without any issues but when I tried opening iTunes today, I got an error message that said "iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7"

    Attempted to update iTunes on January 23rd and it appeared to install properly.  When I tried to open iTunes on January 24th, it would not open and gave me an error message that said "iTunes was not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes.  Error 7 (Windows error 126)"  I then tried to reintall iTunes and it again appeared to install properly but when it attempted to open, I was given the same error message.

    Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
    Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7,now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP,head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
    If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

  • I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    I have just installed iPhoto 11 and all of photos on my iphone have now all disappeared and ended up in my photo stream and the library in iphoto does not display all my pictures?? Can anyone help?

    And I cant work out why all of my pictures are not diplaying in iphoto?
    Is this iPhoto on your Mac?  Are you referring to the photos that were in your iPhoto LIbrary prior to the upgrade to iPhoto 11?  If so then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If that's not what you're referring to then you should describe what is happening in more detail. Remember we can't see your Mac or your iPhone so need detailed and accurate descriptions of what you're experiencing.
    Also we need infomartion like do you have an iCloud account and are you logged into it on all of your devices, iPhoto and Mac? do you have Photo Stream enabled on both.

  • Trying to install iphoto 6.0.4 update gives me an error message

    I just installed iLife 6.0 and when I went to install updates, all of them worked expect for iPhoto 6.0.4 which gave me the following error message:
    The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by “Apple”.
    Any suggestions on what to do about this?

    Hi All
    I have a mini mac (G4 PPC) bought second-hand last July. It came with iLife pre-installed and all the built in apps worked fine. Recently, I found the video ones refused to launch, but iPhoto and iTunes (which I use all the while) caused no problems.
    Until now!
    Although iTunes still appears to work, iPhoto has started crashing on launch as described by others here.
    Like another respondant, I tried repairing disk privilages, etc to no avail. I then created an extra user (normally I'm sole user and adminstrator) and finally, starting at a vacant destop) tried running it again. This time it also crashed, but asked if I wanted to retry and than it suceeded with an empty library.
    Having switched back to my normal account however, the same old problem re-occurs. Have also tried to opt/apple keys trick and it happlity rebuilt the various options. Then crashed again!
    Has anyone got any more ideas? I need it working with my regular library.
    I'd also like to get iMovie working to make some video podcasts and as part of iLife maybe the problems are related.
