Did you delete the receipts first?
To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2. Download it from the App Store to reinstall It's on your Purchases List* there.
For older versions that have been installed from Disk you'll need these additional steps:
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 or later they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
*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.

reinstall iPhoto - go to your receipts folder ("Your hard drive" ==> library ==> receipts) and remove any iPhoto receipts and reinstall from the restore disks that came with your computer - do a custom install of bundled software only

Welcome to Apple discussions.
You'll likely get more responses if you post in the iPhoto discussion group instead of the group for Pages.

I have 'upgraded' to iPhoto 9.2.1 and now cannot print my photos. It says that "this feature is unavailable" because there are no "themes" installed. Themes? I just want to print one of the 6,000 photos I never had problems printing before.
Yes.

I cannot print from iphoto and I desperately need to!
I have an Epson Stylus Photo 1400, connected directly to my macbook with a USB. Up until yesterday it worked perfectly fine.
Yesterday when I tried to print in iphoto, the printer status said "stopped". Even after I clicked "resume" it would still say "stopped.
I spent 2 hours on the phone with Epson support. I uninstalled my printer, reinstalled it, deleted the drivers, reinstalled the drivers, ran some kind of error check on my harddrive, just about everything imaginable. Then he spoke with a supervisor who said that they've heard of this problem before, and it is an iphoto issue, not an Epson issue.
He said that it could be avoided by clicking "customize" on the first print screen, and going through that step before printing. I tried that while I was on the phone with him and it worked.
Well, today I opened iphoto to print- followed his instructions- and I'm having the same problem. I am an artist and I sell art prints that I print on this printer-- I've already sold some that I need to print, but I can't! I don't have an alternate printer to use, since this is for wide-scale prints. I really need to print, and I have no clue what to do!!
It's been over 90 days since I purchased my macbook (I purchased in April) so I can't call tech support without purchasing some kind of extra support package? Help!!!!!!Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First, try the universal iApp fix: delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder. Launch iPhoto and try again.
A modification on Dayla's workaround would be to do a print to PDF. That would set the page and image size you selected in iPhoto. Then Preview can print to the paper size you want and it should be almost as printing directly from iPhoto.
Do you have Photoshop? If so I suggest you print from it as you will have much more control over the color management that with iPhoto.

You can set up PS to be the editor of choice in iPhoto as follows:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.

says no theme is available ? recently had problems with my old mac computer MAC OS X 10.6.8 and took it in then i guess they cleaned it out and it works pretty good but now i can print when i use iphoto???
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
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

Themes_iPhoto_11_Restore
First look in your HD/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one there move it to the Trash. Also look in your Home/Library/Application Support/iPhoto folder for a Themes folder. If there is one move it to the Trash. Reinstall iPhoto as described below:
1 - delete the current application.
2 -files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,
Click to view full size
3 - mount the disk that iPhoto 11 came on, either an iLife 11 disc or the system disk that came with your computer and do a custom install selecting only iPhoto.
If iPhoto 11 came with the computer then double click on the "Install Bundled Software Only" file and do a custom install.
Apply all of the latest iPhoto 9 (11) updates followed by a repair of disk permissions with Disk Utility. Also make sure you're running the latest Quicktime version.

I Updated my iMac to Yosemite 10.10.1 and cannot print from iPhoto 9.6 to my Epson picture mate PM240 photo printer. I had no problem printing before the upgrade. It seems like I don't have a connection between the iMac and Epson Printer. I checked all connections and they are correct. I visited the Epson site and there were no updates available for the PM240. The problem arises after I select a picture to print. When I select PRINT from the FILE the spinning color wheel begins and I cannot go further.
I Contacted Apple and the technical adviser ran the iPhoto troubleshooting programs within IPhoto. This seemed to solve the problem, but the problem almost immediately reocurred. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?Thanks for the replies guys. Epson put me through a complex set of instructions to install an earlier driver. The problem was not solved. Apple also tried to solve the provlem by getting rid of the printer, unplugging it etc and then re starting and checking computer/printer communication by printing a test page from the system preferences/Pring & Fax options. This worked proving the the computer and printer are talking to each other.
The printer works properly as a stand alone unit. That is, I can copy and print and scan and print with no problems.
The Apple support guy didn't suggest any Apple alternative drivers so I assume there aren't any.
Neither the Epson nor Apple assistants seemed interested in the printer generated error message. I would have thought it would at least provide a clue to the problem to someone with technical expertise.
It seems that there are a lot of problems with the 10.6.8 update so maybe Apple will get to work and bring it up to scratch. I hope it gets things right soon. -
Can't Print From iPhoto 8 to Color LaserJet
I recently purchased an iMac with iPhoto 8 installed. This is the cleanest, easiest-to-use version of iPhoto yet!
Except for a huge problem: I cannot print from iPhoto to my HP Color LaserJet 4650. I can print to that printer from all other applications, including photos in Photoshop and Preview. But when I try to print from iPhoto, I get a message on my printer saying "insufficient memory," which is not true. There is enough printer memory (160 mb) to handle almost any print job I can throw at it. Also, others can print photos from their older versions of iPhoto to the same printer without issues.
I have called HP, who say there are no known issues with their printers and iPhoto 8. I have also trashed the iPhoto preferences with no luck. Even my outside tech guy is stumped. For the time being, I can work around by exporting photos to the desktop and printing in Photoshop or Preview, but I would like to print directly from iPhoto. Any advice?Scott:
Thanks for the direction. Tom Rice's link took me to a site where I downloaded some scripts and a driver. After selecting the driver for my HPCLJ4650 everything worked just fine. I don't know why Apple and/or HP are not aware of the problem, but when I read the discussion link you sent me, it sounds like there are a lot of users out there having the same problems with their HP printers and iPhoto '08.
Anyway, I appreciate the help! -

Can't print from iPhoto. I have the :"There were no themes located"
I've read other threads. I have the Themes folders in both the HD and User folders. I tried moving from the User folder to the HD folder and rebooting. I cannot however, reinstall from the disk onto my iMac , because I installed the application from one of the two MacBooks I bought last year.
Could there be a problem with the Themes folders? I see similar files - one ending in -V.IPBookTheme and the other ending .IPBookTheme. Just trying to think of something. Any tips would be appreciated.
I don't imagine I could reinstall iPhoto 7 at this point could I? Would my photos transfer backwards okay from iPhoto 8 to 7?
I actually dislike Events so much that it might be worth it. But for now I would settle for printing from iPhoto. Thanks for any help.because I installed the application from one of the two MacBooks I bought last year.
That is in violation of the Apple licensing agreement.
"*2. Permitted License Uses and Restrictions*. This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single computer at a time. This License does not allow the Apple Software to exist on more than one computer at a time, and you may not make the Apple Software available over a network where it could be used by multiple computers at the same time. "
You'll have to buy a copy of iLife for you computer and do a fresh install.
An iPhoto 08 (also known as iPhoto 7) library is not compatible with iPhoto 6. You will have to start over with iPhoto 6 by creating a new V6 library and importing just the Originals folder from the V7 library.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard. -
