Can't install iPhoto 11, currently have iPhoto 08

I am currently using iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5. I have tried to purchase the latest version of iPhoto from app store, but it won't let me. I have tried to uninstall current version but I can't do this either. I have tried to download updates from apple website, but my mac tells me these are now considered as unauthorised developers!! Help!! How do I get the latest version of iPhoto??

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to 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 bought a 2nd hand late 2008 macbook air and can't install iPhoto as it requires update 10.9 or higher i can't seem to update any further than 10.7.5 help???

    I have bought a 2nd hand late 2008 macbook air and can't install iPhoto as it says it requires update 10.9 or higher i can't seem to update any further than 10.7.5 can anyone help please???

    Thankyou for your response... being new to this i have had a look and it says the following
    This system can run the last version of OS X 10.8 "Mountain Lion" as well as the current version of OS X 10.9 "Mavericks," but does not support the AirDrop, AirPlay Mirroring, or Power Nap features. It is not supported booting into 64-bit mode when running Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard." It does support "OpenCL" and Grand Central Dispatch introduced with Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard."
    Please note that OS X "Lion" 10.7 and subsequent versions of OS X, like Mountain Lion and Mavericks, are not capable of running Mac OS X apps originally written for the PowerPC processor as these operating systems do not support the "Rosetta" environment. To run PowerPC applications on this Mac, it will be necessary to use Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" or earlier
    what do i do next
    Thankyou once again for your reply

    how many computers can i install Iphoto 11 on

    If you buy it on the App Store any Macs that you own or control for personal use. So, all the Macs in your family, yes. All the Macs in your Office... no.

  • I have downloaded OS X Yosemite using recovery from boot but while installing error occuring showing unable to extract essential.pkg so can't install. problem is i have already formatted my drive and dont have any os right now. please help

    i have downloaded OS X Yosemite using recovery from boot but while installing error occuring showing unable to extract essential.pkg so can't install. problem is i have already formatted my drive and dont have any os right now. only the downloaded new os x yosemite in the os x base system. please help

    Please try again after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already taken.
    Step 1
    Reset your computer’s PRAM.
    Step 2
    If your model has user-replaceable memory, and you've upgraded the memory modules, reinstall the original memory and see whether there's any improvement. Be careful not to touch the gold contacts. Clean them with a mild solvent such as rubbing alcohol. Aftermarket memory must exactly match the technical specifications of the machine.
    Step 3
    Back up all data to at least two different storage devices, if you haven't already done so. One backup is not enough to be safe. The backups can be made with Time Machine or with Disk Utility. Preferably both.
    Erase and install OS X. This operation will destroy all data on the startup volume, so you had be better be sure of the backups.
    Step 4
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider to have the machine tested.

  • HT1222 How can I check if I currently have QuickTime 7?  Is there a charge for QuickTime 7.7.3 and what is the charge for the QuickTime 7 Pro registration?

    How can I check if I currently have QuickTime 7?  Is there a charge for QuickTime 7.7.3 and what is the charge for the QuickTime 7 Pro registration?

    This is the iPhone forum, you should check the Quicktime forum. But, to try and help a little, I would say go to Help, About Quicktime and it should tell you what version it is. Also, Quicktime Pro does have a cost involved.

  • Can I install iphoto 6 if I have '08 already installed?

    Ive just upgraded to '08 but I need the option to print without dust jackets - like in iphoto 6.
    So can I use my install disks to install iphoto 6? Will that work running 2 versions of it? With 2 different library's?
    Thanks
    Mark

    FWIW I found the dust jacket to be a big improvement as I could add information about the book and author just like commercial books. All of the recipients of the newer design were very pleased with it. But then, different strokes for different folks.

  • How can I install iPhoto on a 10.6.8 Macbook?

    Hello all-
    I had a quick question regarding the newest version of iPhoto '11.  Quite a while ago, I had to replace the hard drive of my (very old) Macbook Pro, and during this process I installed 10.6.8 on the new SSD.  Everything works perfectly, but I did lose my iLife install when the process was finished (I used the upgrade version of 10.6.8 as opposed to the full version, forgetting that the new drive wouldn't have my previous 10.4 install on it).
    Anyway, I'm looking to buy iPhoto '11, but the requirements on the App Store claim that it can only be used with 10.7.4 or later.  I can't find an older version of iPhoto that I can buy, so my question is-
    Can I use iPhoto '11 with a 10.6.8 Mac?  Has anyone successfully installed (not upgraded) iPhoto '11 on a 10.6.8 Mac?  If it won't work, how do I find/buy an older version of iPhoto which will work with my computer?
    Thanks for your help!

    I contacted App Store support, but it doesn't look like they'll be able to help me- apparently you can't buy the CD version.  I did find this on Amazon, however- I believe it's what you're talking about. 
    However, I'm not sure if this version will even run on my Mac- any idea on whether it'll work or not?
    Additionally, I found my old 10.4 discs that came with the computer when it was new- I'll try to get iPhoto installed off the bundled software installer and see if I can upgrade it from there.

  • Can't install iphoto 6.0.3!! help

    Hi, I hope someone can help me. I have a imac G4 256 MB w/ OX 10.4.6. I am still running iphoto 2 (what the computer came with) Now I finally want to upgrade to iphoto 6.0.3 and the computer won't let me. When I am told to select a destination to install it, my Mac HD icon comes up w/ a red exlamation point through it. When I select it I get this message: "you cannot install iphoto update 6.0.3 on this volume. An eligible iphoto apllication was not found in the location application/iphoto/app." Does anyone have any idea what I need to do. I am not very computer savvy. Also my computer says that I have 38.3 GB (is that memory?) w/ 21.8 free and iphoto needs 52.9 MB so I think I should have enough. Any help or thoughts is greatly appreciated. thanks

    hello brooklyngirl
    you say that you are still using iphoto 2. you have to have iphoto 6 installed before you can download version 6.0.3. the only way to get iphoto 6 is to buy it. that is buy the ilife'06 package. once you install it then and only then will you get the update. sorry this is the way it has to be.

  • Can't install iphoto for ipad on my ipad air running ios 7

    On the ipad, I start App Store, search for iPhoto, and all I get is a bunch of auxilliary photo apps but no listing for Apple iPhoto. If I use safari on the iPad and go to apple.com, I can search for and find a page for iPhoto on the iPad, but there, the link to 'download iphoto' does nothing.

    I can't install the drivers for my printer Photsmart C7280 on my Mac Air running Mac OS X 10.7, Lion. The HP center sends me to Apple Updates which says no drivers available, see HP which repeats the circle.
    Lion should include the driver you need but since its not working lets try this:
    Let's uninstall with the 'scrubber option' like this:
    1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ click on HP Uninstaller and click Continue
    2. Highlight your device on the left pane
    3. Hold the Ctrl, Opt and Cmd keys and click on Uninstall
    4. There will be a pop up that asks if you are sure you want to uninstall ALL hp software. (At this point, if you continue, any HP printers you have installed will need to be reinstalled)
    5. Click Continue and let it finish
    Now, run a Software Update. This can be done by clicking the Apple in the top left of the screen then clicking Software Updates.
    Next, let's reset the printing system:
    Go to System Preferences > Print & Scan
    - Right (or control) click in the rectangle listing your printers and select Reset Printing System.
    WARNING - this will delete ALL of your printers!
    - Select the plus sign to re-add a printer. Select the Default tab on the top of the window. Look for the printer, select it and wait until the "Add" button becomes available. Click it.
    Finally, download and install the software from here.
    Let me know how this works for you!

  • HT2638 How can I install iphoto 6 on an older mashine with snow leapard where to get it

    Please can you help
    I have an old whight mac duel core intell just installed snow lepard and now need iphoto but version11 will not work so ? can I use version 6

    iPhoto '11 will work with 10.6.8 - as will iPhoto '08 and '09 (and iPhoto 6) - you can purchase any of thoses ilife DVDs that you can find on eBay on Amazon and install iPhoto or all of iLife
    The App store only sells the latest version and it will not work on 10.6.8

  • Can't install iphoto 9

    After about an hour, the progress bar gets to 1GB out of a total of 1.15GB and then I get a red error message  "an error has occured" and can't go any further.  I am trying to install now for the third time, but any ideas?

    Also make sure you have plenty of free space on your boot drive.  I'd also run Disk Utility to repair disk permissions and verify the drive.
    Is your profile correct, i.e. the system version?  Are you trying to install iPhoto from the App Store?

  • Can't install iphoto 6 on mac g4

    HI, is there a trick to installing iphoto 6 on a g4 flat panel. 700hz machine. It won't install. Says there is an error. Tried everything. Thanks.

    Yes, that easy, unless you’re a: Using the wrong disk (for instance, trying to install it from a System Restore disk from another model of Mac) b: A faulty disk or c: a faulty drive.
    That machine can certainly run iPhoto 6.

  • I can't install iPhoto 11 app on second hand macbook air

    Hey,
    On a second hand macbook air with formatted ssd disk + reinstalled Lion, I can't install ilife. It is already installed by another user (former owner of the macbook air ?).
    How can this be solved ?
    Thx

    Just an agreement with Csound1 - you need to begin again anew (is that repetitious?).
    CleanMyMac has obviously made the installation of Adobe products impossible. Which products, specifically, are you trying to install and which versions? You should ALWAYS use the provided Adobe Uninstallers to uninstall an Adobe product. Kind of pointless information at this time, I know, but just as a reminder for 'next time,' when you surely will no longer be using CleanMyMac.
