Can't find iPhoto pics in new MBPro

I just got a new MBPro 13 Retina and had Apple do the data migration from my old MBPro. However, I can't find the pics on either computer. Where are they?

I have no idea. But have you used Sptlight to search for .jpg? Have you opened iPhoto on the new Mac.
Also download ansd install EasyFind and search for iPhoto Library.photolibrary. It should be in your Username folder under Pictures.
Open a Finder window and go to the folder Users, do you see 2 user names there or just one?

I cannot find iPhoto on my new macbook pro

Where can I find iPhoto on my new macbook pro?

iLife apps don't come preinstalled on new computers. Now, open App Store > Updates and accept iMovie, iPhoto and GarageBand, so they'll be registered to your Apple ID and you'll be able to download them whenever you want

Hi, I recently got a newer desktop to replace my old laptop and I uploaded my pics with my picture keeper and I can find them in images BUT I can't find iPhoto. On all my other device sit always loads to iPhoto automatically! Help please!

HHi, I recently got a newer desktop to replace my older laptop and I upl my pics from my picture keeper and I see them in images but I can't find iPhoto! Help please.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a 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? A new iMac will have Yosemite. Confirm.
what system version are you running? Download iPhoto 6 from the App store. Did you?
what do you mean by "picture keeper"?
have you looked in the Applications folder for an iPhoto application?
is your iPhoto Library in your Pictures folder ?

Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new sad and upgraded to Mountain Lion., but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this? Graham

Hard drive packed up, but had Time Machine backup. I installed new ssd and upgraded to Mountain Lion, but I can't find iPhoto library and photos or iTunes songs? Is there an answer to this? A backup run did not install either photos or songs. Graham

Thanks so much but none of that helped. It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive. I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
Thank you for your help and replying to this. Guess I made my own issue!

1 - you need to update your profile as you state that you have OS X 10.6.3 in it
2 - for Yosemite you need to backup your iPhoto library and install iPhoto 9.6 from the App store - if you are upgrading from iPhoto '08 or earlier you need to also run the iPhoto Library upgrader prior to launching iPhoto 9.6
3 - Your photos are NOT in iCloud - it is not a place to store photos - it is only to move photos between devices (MyPhotoStream) or people (shared PhotoStreams) - they are (by default) in the iphoto library in your pictures folder - if you did not backup your iphoto library prior to erasing you disk then they are gone

Okay I use iPhoto 6 on an older mac and don't want to upgrade past 10.4.11. Can I upgrade iPhoto without the newer operating system? For the life of me I can't get iPhoto to recognize my camera reliably - although it does sometimes. Any advice, help?

The latest version of iPhoto which can operation with OS X 10.4.11 is iPhoto 7 which is part of iLife 08. You might be able to find a copy of iLIfe 08 on Amazon.com or Ebay.com.
iLife 08's full system requirements are:
Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 processor
iMovie ’08 requires a Mac computer with an Intel processor, a Power Mac G5 (dual 2.0 GHz or faster), or an iMac G5 (1.9 GHz or faster)
iDVD ’08 requires 733MHz or faster processor
512 MB of RAM; 1 GB recommended; high-definition video requires at least 1 GB of RAM
3 GB of available disk space
DVD drive required for installation

I can't use iPhoto on my new MacMini. Why?

I can't use iPhoto on my new MacMini. I transferred my photo library from my old Mac tower's iPhoto library. The photos are in there - I can find them in the photo library - but I can't get them into iPhoto - or even open iPhoto. What happens is a message: "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto." Then, when I choose "Upgrade", I get : "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable." It goes on to tell me to Quit iPhoto, Reopen while keeping Option & Comand keys pressed." Did that over and over. Nothing changes. It also says: "Try restoring our photo library from back up" but I don't know what that means. Help.
Note: My transferred photos are in there via: Finder / Judy / Library / iPhoto Library. But I can't work with them, e.g. edit, in iPhoto or access them any other way than one at a time in that library... not exactly what I want or need.

I did everything you suggested and it seemed to be a repeat of everything I did yesterday. Going through "Macintosh HD" just got me to the same place I was in yesterday, going through Finder to 'Judy' to 'Library' to 'iPhoto Library'. There just isn't anything there that looks like what you describe: 'Permissions' or 'Rights & Priveges'. From everything I see when I monkey around in my 'User' folder, there are no restrictions on anything.
BDAqua is indicating one of the standard paths/locations for the iPhoto Library:
Macintosh HD -> Users -> Judy -> Pictures -> iPhoto Library
At least that's where mine was on Snow Leopard and is on Lion. The location you've indicated, isn't standard:
Macintosh HD -> Judy -> Library -> iPhoto Library
When you get to "iPhoto Library",
- select/hightlight it
- Then click cmd-I (or under the "File" menu, select "Get Info")
- At the very bottom of the "Info" window you should "Sharing and Permissions" -- that's what BDAqua is asking about.

Where does one set space after paragraph in the new Pages 5.0? It used to be under text in the Inspector in the previous version, but I just can't find it in this new version.

Where does one set space after paragraph in the new Pages 5.0? It used to be under text in the Inspector in the previous version, but I just can't find it in this new version. Paragraphs seem to only be dealt with in styles, and the Formatting window for text doesn't seem to have the space after paragraph contrtol that the older Inspector had. What am I missing?

Sorry I did this without looking:
Side panel >Text > Style > Spacing > Turn the triangle > Before Paragraph/After Paragraph/

The older version allowed me to save all open tabs by giving it a name, i.e. April 29, but I can't find it in the new version. Is there anything like it available? If so, I really want it back

Tonight, for example, I have many tabs open which I'd like to close but re-open tomorrow.
I'd like to save them all as "April 30" in my Bookmarks... the 0ld version allowed me to do this, but I can't find this in the new version.
The only way I don't seem to lose those open tabs I'm working with is by doing "Contol + Delete", but I know this shouldn't be done all the time...
There must be a better way, but if there isn't, would I be able to get back and work with the old version?

Can't find iPhoto after upgrading from 10.1.4

I can't find iPhoto on the Tiger install disc or on my hard drive. I can't find it on the original install discs that came with the machine. Where should I be looking?

It's not part of Tiger.

That's exactly what I tried to do, but the iPhoto librry doesn't show up in the pulldown menu. If I click "Choose Folder", the iPhoto library is greyed out and unable to be selected.
For some reason, iPhoto is an option in the pulldown library on my older iMac but not on my MacBook Pro. What gives?

Where can I find iPhoto download for OS 10.9 on a Mac Book Air

reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first
