Cant view photos on iPhoto following iPhoto upgrade and reinstall after back up

I backed up my HD, i then reinstaled everything. Iphoto was missing, I upgraded to OS X 10.9 and then upgraded to iphoto 9.5
I cant see any photos at all
Ive tried rebuilding but no joy
I can see lots of files in finder/pictures with the sufix .apalbum im assuming these are the reinstalled photos following back up
but nothing showing on iphoto
Any help appreciated

  • I get a message that my photo library needs to be upgraded and my photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade.  I don't dare do anything.  Please help

    I keep getting a message when I try to open iphoto that says that my photo library needs to be upgraded and my library will not be readable by previous versions of iphoto after the upgrade.  What do I do??

    Depends - you first off need to suypply us with information since we only know what you tell us
    Like what version of iPhoto are you using? Have you recently installed any iPhoto (or iLife) updates or upgrades? Do you plan to use this iPhoto library with two or more different versions of iPhoto (no possible so stop now if you do)? Where is your iPhoto library?
    Anything else that you can tell us that might let us give you a good answer to your question

  • There's a glitch somewhere. iphoto just wont open. upgraded to yosemite and downloaded iPhoto upgrader and it doesn't work, just keeps telling me to upgrade when I did already or quit, so no way to do photos on this brand new mac. that's a pity!!

    You need to have iPhoto 11 v9.6 (which you can get from the App Store) to use iPhoto on Yosemite. If you already have iPhoto 11 then the update is free. Otherwise it's a purchase.

  • Viewing photos in iPhoto '11

    I don't know if its merely a setting that needs adjusting but when I view photos in iPhoto a large proportion do not fill the entire screen as they did in iPhoto .09.
    Can anybody help me fix this issue??

    VERY frustrating not being able to view the photos filling the screen. It's a way to get us to buy another program. I don't understand why Apple takes away features that are valuable and necessary.
    Why did Apple do this? I have to use Photoshop to see the photos in a large format - very inconvenient.
    There is enough information to answer the question. Why can't we see our photos like we did in version 9???
    There must be a competitor to iPhoto out there that will fulfill this need.

    How to get same order of appearance of photos in Iphoto album and album shown to IOS devices after sharing?

    Hello Leonie!
    I use Iphoto sharing with my family on their ios devises.  And it works. 
    The only problem is that, now, I try to organize the photos in a meaningful way (not chronologically) before Iphoto Sharing (Icloud)
    But on the ios devices the photos is arranged chronologically.
    Is there a solution?

  • How do I uninstall iPhoto 5 and reinstall iPhoto 4 in Tiger

    I would like to uninstall iPhoto 5 and go back to iPhoto 4. I am using a Pentax Optio S4 Camera and have 3500 pictures in iPhoto 5 and am very unhappy with the performance since upgrading to iPhoto 5. I have read others are also having problems with certain cameras because of EXIF information used to create Maker Notes. With iPhoto 4 my system was very responsive, fast, and reliable. I've decided that the functionality of iPhoto 4 out weighs the features I will loose with iPhoto 5. So, I am wondering what the process is to uninstall iPhoto 5 and reinstall iPhoto 4. I am running Tiger 10.4.3. Has anyone else done this?

    Hi xjfo,
    To go back to an older version of iPhoto, you must have a backed up Library from that version. An older version of iPhoto will not open newer versions libraries.
    If you have newly imported photos in your 5 library that are not in your backed up library you will need to share/export them now. Export the Original to the desktop. These can be imported once you are back in the older version of iPhoto.
    Navigate to /Applications and drag iPhoto to the trash
    Navigate to /Library/Receipts and drag all of the iPhoto receipts to the trash
    Navigate to ~/Library/Preferences and drag com.apple.iPhoto.plist to the trash
    Navigate to ~/Pictures and drag your iPhoto 5 Library folder to the desktop. You can keep it on your hard drive in another folder, or you can rename it and keep it in the Pictures folder, or you can move it to an external for safe keeping or you can burn the entire iPhoto Library folder for safekeeping.
    Insert your older iLife CD/DVD and choose to do a custom install.
    Install iPhoto
    Run Software Update and update iPhoto to the latest version. that means if you installed 4 there should be some updated version of 4
    Put your backed up iPhoto Library in the Pictures folder. If it is named iPhoto Library then it should open when iPhoto is launched.
    If you renamed it, then launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and have it open the library you navigate to.
    If you don't have a backed up version of the iPhoto Library of the version you want to install then you have a lot more steps to do.
    If done this way, all albums, keywords, folders will have to be redone because you are starting from scratch with a new library and importing these photos into the new library.
    Close iPhoto
    Rename your old iPhoto Library to "iPhoto Library_old"
    Drag this library to your desktop
    Hold down the Option key and launch iPhoto
    This is the window you will get
    Create a new library or choose a library to open
    Choose to create a new library
    Once this new empty library is open it is time to import the images from your old library
    Go to File>add to library
    Navigate to the old library on your desktop and choose it.
    iPhoto will start importing the images from your old library
    This is what to expect:
    Your images will be imported in nice dated rolls. (make sure your view is set to sort by rolls to see it) There are a couple of caveats to this. You will get rolls named "Originals" These rolls will contain your video clips and your original images that you had edited. If you had RAW files they would be in those rolls too (I don't do RAW, so I don't know for sure) Delete what you don't want from those rolls. You will also get the jpeg pointer files to your video clips imported. They will just be jpegs and will not point to the video clips anymore as iPhoto made new ones when the clips were imported again. You can delete those. they should be in a roll right next to the newly imported video clips so they are not hard to find. The thumbnail files don't get imported as iPhoto makes new ones when the images are imported.
    Once all you images have been imported, check through the library and make sure everything looks ok.
    You can now start making your Albums, and do your keywords or any other organizational steps.
    You can also delete the old library on the desktop.
    It is also a good time to backup this new library to CD/DVD by burning the iPhoto LIbrary folder in the Finder, or copying the iPhoto Library folder to an external drive formatted for Macs, or copying the iPhoto LIbrary folder to an iPod.
    Good luck!

    Phonebooth is in your home folder under pictures with Iphoto and Ichat. Deleting pigtures from phonebooth should not remove any from Iphoto library. Something else had to happen.
