Cannot access iPhoto after Maverick upgrade

After upgrading to OSX 10.9.1, I am unable to access my photos. I get an error message stating that the photos are on a locked disk. It tries to repair teh access but top no avail. I can view my photos on my phone.

Your phone access to photos is strictly on your phone.   It sounds like you put your photos on another account, or an external hard drive that doesn't have the right permissions.  You could sync up the photos from your phone to your computer, but that requires these steps:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4252343
The Pictures folder should not be outside your Users -> yourname -> folder.  Otherwise iPhoto generally won't know where to find it, without a rebuild of the library.  If you did put it outside of there, command-option keys need to be held simultaneously while launching iPhoto, and locate the iPhoto Library xml file in the folder that has your library once it asks you to relocate the folder.

  • Cannot access Facebook since Mavericks upgrade

    Since I updated my Snow Leopard to Mavericks about a month ago, I've been unable to access Facebook through Safari, Google Chrome, or any other browser. However, I'm still getting Facebook message notifications via the notification centre.
    I am very confused as to why Facebook is simply not loading when every other site is working fine.
    Any ideas?

    I also have the same problem until now after upgrading to Mavericks. I cannot access Facebook on all browsers. Have done the following:
    - cleared cache, etc.
    - uninstalled and reinstalled all browsers (except Safari)
    - reset all browsers.
    Please help. Thanks!

  • Photos missing from iPhoto after Maverick upgrade

    Down loaded the updated Maverick on July 6, 2014, today July 8th all of the photos have disappeared.  Some of these photos are not replaceable.  help!!!

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Cannot access my photos at WD using iPhoto after Mavericks!

    Cannot access my photos at WD using iPhoto after Mavericks!

    Did it.
    iPhoto opens nicely but without the photos:-(
    However I can reach the them by: WD > iPhoto Library and then right click Show Package Content > Originals
    All the photos are there and reachable manually.
    I am guessing that there should be a software patch/update by either Apple or WD to bridge the photo portfolio at the external disk and the iPhoto.
    Thanks your efforts.

  • After upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose?

    after upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose, what will not be readable?

    In the current version of iPhoto, nothing.
    In previous versions of iPhoto, the ability to access any part of it.
    Back it up before doing this.

  • Cannot update iPhoto after upgrading to Yosemite

    I have a Macbook Pro which I upgraded to Yosemite but now I cannot access iPhoto because it says I need to upgrade. The problem is that it won't let me upgrade because it says that it was either bought by a different user (I am the only user of this computer) or the item was refunded or cancelled. None of these are applicable. What can I do?

    In that case you'll need to contact the App Store support personnel via this website:  http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/

  • Cannot access internet after upgrading to IOS 6.1.2 on iphone 4

    cannot access internet after upgrading to IOS 6.1.2 on iphone 4.

    ok here is the issue.
    After i upgraded the IOS to IOS 6.1.2 I'm not able to use mobile internet as i have a data sim card.
    As the settings provided by the service provider are not compatible with IOS 6.1.2 and the service provider cannot do anything about it, as it's something that has to be ressolved by apple.

  • I cannot open iPhoto after upgrading latest apple updates.  Getting a message latest iPhoto version is not available in the US

    MacBook pro, 8GB,  OSX Yosemite
    I cannot open iPhoto after latest apple upgrade.  Getting message latest iPhoto version is not available in the US.

    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.

  • Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there?

    Hi, I just updated my mac from version10.6 to 10.9.3 os mavericks. i went to open iPhoto and it says "Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade." does this mean I have lost all photos i had in there? It does not give me a choice, it just says quit or upgrade? p.s. i didn't realise ther was  a way to back up my computer beforehand, which i am guessing this is time machine?

    1. No, you haven't.
    2. Back up the iPhoto library(this can be done through Time Machine or by dragging it to a drive, partition, or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended) and then click Upgrade.
    3. Aside from Time Machine and drag-copying items from your home folder, programs such as the Disk Utility, Carbon Copy Cloner, and SuperDuper can make backups.

    Thx Leonie,
    Surprisingly, I just went to the crash reporter and there were no reports re: the iPhoto issue. This is the only report I found, which I not sure is related to the iPhoto issue:

    As for the TimeCapsule indeed, I use it as an extended drive but I'm surprised it would be considered a FAT-32 formatted drive as this is an Apple device.
    I asked the apple reps if I could use the TimeCapsule for such purpose and no one raised a concern. It's also surprising that I didn't have an issue with this prior to the upgrade to OS X Yosemite.
    Having said the above, thank you for your help - if the TimeCapsule is indeed the issue, perhaps I can solve the issue by transferring the iphoto library to an OS extended hard drive.

    iPhoto should be still in your Applications folder and will still work. But if you failed to keep it up to date then Try Terence's instructions here  Is Iphoto gone ?i want it back!
