Cannot open iPhoto without update....why? how can I avoid?

I just updated to maverick, and now I can't open iPhoto without a demand to update aperture which I have never owned or used. How can I get around this expensive update?

Download the iPhoto 9.1 updater and try to apply it. If that is successful download and run the iPhoto 9.3.1 updater and apply it.

Cannot open iPhoto in Mavericks. How can I recover my pictures?

I have just updated my OS to Mavericks and now iPhoto does not open because it is version 9.2.3
I want to recover all my pictures!!! How can I do it!?
This is my main concern now. I do not want to pay 15 dollars just for the iphoto update, since I barely use the app.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Eze

I had the same issue after upgrading to OS Mavericks.
SOLUTION!
Download iPhoto 9.4.3 from apple support website:

Check to see if the developer has released an update to the app.

An update for numbers was shown for my macbook pro, however even though this has been done I cannot open numbers without updating and when you try to update again it advises you that this is already done so we go round in circles getting nowhere, any idea

` I cannot open numbers as it requires and update, and the update has taken place yet it still maintains that an update is required and when you look to iupdate it advises you that you have already updated so we go around the circle and get nowhere. Help please.

Hi renrut,
Do not delete the old version of Numbers (Numbers 2.3, Numbers'09). It has features that the new Numbers has lost (in particular, Print View).
Numbers '09 has been moved to a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. The icon on your Dock continues to point to Numbers '09. Launching Numbers from that icon is why you get the "Update" message. Numbers 2.3 is trying to open a Numbers 3 document.
The new version of Numbers (Numbers 3.2 is the latest version) lives in your Applications folder (not a sub folder). Drag that icon to your Dock. It will become an Alias. Right click (or control click) on it and Options > Keep In Dock. Now you can chose which version to run.
Numbers 2 on the left (three columns)
Numbers 3 on the right (four columns).
Both versions will run happily side by side. Just be sure which version you use to open a Numbers document. If Numbers 3 tries to "steal" a Numbers 2 document, you will get a warning when you start to edit:
Edit a Copy will preserve your Numbers 2 document and create a Numbers 3 copy. Cancel will get you out. Upgrade will convert your Numbers 2 document to a Numbers 3 document.
If all else fails, you can do Menu > File > Export To > Numbers '09 to revert.
Do not delete Numbers '09 (or Numbers '08) from your machine! You will need them.
Regards,
Ian.

Cannot open iPhoto or access library due to failed update

I have tried several times to update my 10.7 MacBook Pro but the combined update always hangs and gets stuck on "moving items into place". I ignored it for a while and realized without this update I cannot open iphoto or even access my photo library. Every time I click the dock icon I get an error that states I need the most recent version. So I guess my two questions would be what can I do to update this software successfully? And how can I access the iPhoto library without updating (in case I can't update)? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

I am trying to make a iphoto book but every time i click on a single photo or folder it opens up a new book. How can I avoid this? This is iphoto 10.

Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. Select Size = Medium or Large.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
NOTE: If you're running iPhoto 9.5 the export options will be different.

I cannot open pages; I am told I can't open pages while updating. I did not know I was updating. I cannot open a new pages document. My menu list is ok, but when I click on a document it won't open. Can you help?

I cannot open pages. The message says, can't open pages while being updated. I did not knowingly update anything.
The program is stuck in this mode. can you help?

Your copy of Pages may have gotten stuck when downloading. This article explains how to fix a stuck Mavericks download; the same procedure should help with any application:

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know some details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
where is you library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

You cannot retrieve the already published site as iWeb CANNOT open it - it has no import facility.
You need your domain.sites file, which you can find under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. You do not need any kind of account for this because it is your domain.sites file that resides on the hard drive of your Mac anyway. Find this file and you can alter your website.
Use a spotlight search to try and find it and if this does not work you can download something called Find Any File. If you really can't find it, then you'll have to start from scratch because iWeb cannot open a site that is already published.

I've lost my password for my Airport, and cannot set up AppleTV without it. How can I either reset or recover the password?

I've lost my password for my Airport, and cannot set up AppleTV without it. How can I either reset or recover the password?

While you can reset your password, it might be wise to first check and see whether you can retrieve it, which will save you some time as far as setting up new connections on all of your devices with a new password.
On your iMac.....
Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the AirPort router icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
Click the Base Station menu at the top of the screen....up where the other File, Edit, Window, and Help menus reside
Click Show Passwords

WILL ANYONE ANSWER MY QUESTION? WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET A REPLY FOR MY CONUNDRUM/

I also cannot access part of the App Store, I have been trying to down load a magazine app, it has been trying to connect but it has been taking a long time. Also since I did my last update I have lost the ability to face time, I also cannot open iPhoto's

Since my last update on the newest version iPad I have not been able to download a magazine app that I have a subscription for as well I cannot open iPhoto's or video. When I go into settings and go down to where iTunes Mail etc are it freezes my I pad and I cannot access these. Is there a apple system problem? This has been going on for over a week now.

For FaceTime try the troubleshooting advice given here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3367
Also try resetting your iPad:
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.
