Current iphoto '08 version
Hi,
What's the most current version of iphoto 08? The version in my macbook pro is 7.1.5? my iphoto says it's iPhoto 08, but the version is 7.1.5? Is this what it's suppose to be?
Thanks,
Is this what it's suppose to be?
Yes. The numbers are different because there was no iLife 07.

My current iPhoto'11 version is the 9.2.1 one. I just attempted to install the 9.2.3 update, but all I got was an Alert sign stating that "iPhto 9.1.0 or later is required to install this update." I then tried to download the 9.1.0 update, with the same fruitless results. What can be wrong here?
Put iPhoto back into the Applications folder, not in any subfolders, and ensure it's named iPhoto or iPhoto.app.

You can’t open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto.
I am using the current iPhoto and O/S 10.8.2Make a temporary, backup copy of your library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

When opening the version of Iphoto i have an error message appears that says; You can't open your current iphoto library using this version of Iphoto. You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iphoto. What? If I can't open the current library using the latest version of iphoto, and I am asked to make changes the the newest version!!! I'm asked to run in circles chasing my tail...I had a new hard drive installed about 6 weeks ago. I am running MAC OS 10.5.8
What version of iPhoto do you have? If you're on 10.5 then you're not running the latest iPhoto
Any chance that the library was opened with another version?
Simplest solution will be to just restore from your back up. -
I currently have iPhoto '08 version 7.1.5 and need to update. However, will I loose any of my saved calendars or books?
In gereral no - iPhoto '09 and iPhoto '11 both have the same themes as iPhoto '08 - there may be some changes necessary depending on themses used, fonts user, etc
Before upgrading be sure you have a good backup in cae something goes wrong

I cannot open iPhoto. The error reads: "You can't open your current iPhoto library using this version of iPhoto.
You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version."
But, I don't ever recall doing that, and I need to access my iPhoto. Anyone help?Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

I switched my current iphoto library out for the saved one on my external drive by mistake. It said, Switch Libraries.... Do you want to switch the current iphoto library from AAA iphoto library (what I called the old one I guess - in my OWC) toOWC Mercury on-the-go and relaunch iphoto? cancel or relaunch
Sorry, I was looking for a way to save my current iphoto images to my hard drive. Yeah, I guess just drag something over right? Anyway, now I cannot retrieve my last 2 or 3 years of photos, Can You HELP me?
Mac os X version 10.6.8
2.66 GHz Intel core 2 Duo
etcDepress the option key and launch iPhoto = use teh select library option and select the correct one
yes to move your library to an external drive
Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

Hi! I just updated to Mountain Lion to make full use of iCloud and am attempting to turn on PhotoStream. I have iPhoto '09, version 8.12, so I think I need to upgrade to iPhoto '11. I'm reluctant to do this as I've read a ton of bad reviews written by people who have purchased the new version. Any suggestions? Is it worth it?
Obviously only you can decide what is "worth it". Millions and millions and millions of people use and like iPhoto '11. Some don't. If you want PhotoStream then you must upgrade to the minimum software levels

I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto ’09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn’t need it).
I am totally happy with the way iPhoto organizes my photos and how I can work with iMovie to create slide shows with music from iTunes, etc.
I have been shooting mostly high resolution jpegs and I continue to learn more and more about photography, post processing etc. I realize that the small adjustments I can make in iPhoto are good, and are adequate most of the time. However, a have started to experiment with shooting RAW images and would like to go the next step, ie. post processing.I am totally technically challenged and need SIMPLE, INTUITIVE programs and am certainly NOT anywhere ready for Photoshop CS whatever!
After having these programs sit on my computer, I decided to try to see if I could figure them out. When I opened Aperture, this is what first comes up.
“Welcome to Aperture 3.2
Your library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of Aperture. Once upgraded, you will not be able to use this library with previous versions of Aperture.
Upgrading a library from previous versions of Aperture 3 generally takes a few minutes or less, though larger libraries will take longer. After that, Aperture 3.2 will upgrade your library's thumbnails, but you can use the application during that time.
Tip: To open a different library, quit Aperture and hold the Option key down while starting Aperture
Current Library Location:
Jadzia (home) -----Pictures------Aperture Library
QUIT UPGRADE”
I have heard horror stories about moving your entire library to Aperture, ending up with 2 libraries, etc. etc. hence my previous reluctance in attempting Aperture. In addition, many of my photography friends are saying: Go with Lightroom 3.....you’ll love it!
So here is my dilemma. I don’t want to mess around with my iPhoto library. All I want to be able to do, is to isolate a few photos, export them to Aperture, Elements, and work on them there, then bring them back into iPhoto.
Can I do this? Should I forget about Aperture and Elements and look at purchasing yet another program like Lightroom?Export those few photos via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop. Then import them into the Aperture library. That would keep one copy in your iPhoto library and another in your Aperture library to edit, etc.
You can use Photoshop Elements 9 from within iPhoto as your editor of choice. However, if you edit a raw file in iPhoto with PSE9 the resulting edited version must be saved outside the iPhoto Library and imported back in as a new file. For editing jpegs just do a Save (not a Save As) and it all will be kept within iPhoto.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts 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 the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

I am trying to upgrade my iPhoto 09 version 8.1.2 to iPhoto 11 on my mac but i am confused
I currently have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 which was installed on my Macbook when I bought it. I have recently upgraded to OX Lion & want to upgrade to iPhoto '11 so I can use iCloud between my mac & iPhone but every time I click on the App in the App Store it keeps giving me a warning message: "iPhoto 8.1.2 is already installed and was not purchased from the Mac App Store - Do you want to buy iPhoto 9.2.3?"
I am worried that if I select BUY it will delete my current iPhoto programme & I will lose everything?
can anybody tell me what to do?Back up your library and install it.

IPhoto '11 version 9.0.1 didn't fix"iphoto is unable to open this library"
I upgraded iPhoto to version 9.0.1 but I still have the same issue : iPhoto '11 is unable to open and update my photos library. After launching iPhoto, it tried to update the library but I got the message "iphoto is unable to open this library". I tried all the workaround mentioned by the members of this forum without success. I even rebuild my library with the maintenance mode of iPhoto '09 before trying again to update it with iPhoto '11.
What should I do? Am I the only one in this case with version 9.0.1 ?
I need to access back to my photos and I'm surprised Apple is yet unable to propose a workaround for bypassing this library updating issue. By the way, it is strange that for being able to update a defective library you need to run the rebuilding options, but for being able to rebuild the library with iPhoto '11, you need first to update it. We are in a dead end!
Message was edited by: Fred@MYou are not alone! I have the exact same problem, and 9.0.1 didn't help me either.
iPhoto 9.0 originally gave me this error. I removed it and re-installed iPhoto 8, which opens gives errors about the library needing repair. After running some of the rebuilding options I got the library open but all items from 2010 are missing.
I then reinstalled iPhoto 9.0.1 and tried to open an older backup of my iPhoto library that works fine with iPhoto 8. That won't open either, with the same error message- "iPhoto is unable to open this library." So basically I can't use iPhoto 9.0.1 at all, and with my most current library trashed I will have to go back to my nearly year-old backup library (I know, my bad) and import all newer photos, which I fortunately have stored elsewhere, again.
Or more likely, I will keep using my "backup" library on my PC with Picasa until I can try another iPhoto update that will hopefully restore my damaged library (wishful thinking, I suspect!) -
Will iPhoto '09 version 8.0.2 (402) work within Mountain Lion??
I have downloaded Mountain Lion but hasn't installed. Currently running on Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Before I install mountain lion I wanna make sure the iPhoto version I have will still work, as I can't live without it? Not sure I want to pay another £10 for it from the App store, to be honest...
Thanks!
ChloeiPhoto '09 works in Mountain Lion without any problem. However, you are running an outdated iPhoto version, so open > Software Update, and install the most recent iPhoto '09 version before upgrading to Mountain Lion.
Before upgrading to Mountain Lion, make a backup of your data and check that your applications are compatible > http://www.roaringapps.com -
Trouble upgrading from iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 to latest version
Currently, I am using iphoto '09 version 8.1.2 and want to SAFELY upgrade to the latest version of iPhoto (and I have already upgraded to Lion). I've heard about a lot of lost data when doing this! I started by trying to install version 9.0.1 it won't load on my hard drive saying that I need to install version 9.0 first. I thought about just going ahead with iPhoto '11 but I'm confused and don't want to risk losing data. Any suggstions?
Make a back up before upgrading anything.
Somewhat confusing but iPhoto 11 and iPhoto v9 are the same thing. 11 is the marketing name for version 9 of iPhoto - like 09 is the marketing name of version 8 of iPhoto.
To upgrade to iPhoto 11 (v9) you need to purchase it. You can do this on the App Store.

Have iphoto '08, version 7.1.5 & can't buy photos or book.
Have iphoto '08, version 7.1.5. Won't let me buy prints or books. Says I need iphoto 7. What's the website to get it, how much does it cost and will it delete my current photos if I download it. Thank you.
You are correct - is OS X 10.3.9 correct for your OS as your profile states?
There are third parties that may be able to print the book from a PDF - Google will return some

Can I update iPhoto from version 8.1.2 to 9 or higher versionfor free?
Can I update iPhoto from version 8.1.2 to 9 or higher versionfor free?
Is your profile signature "Mac OS X (10.6.8)" still current? With that MacOS X version you can upgrade to iPhoto 9.2.x. Only, the iPhoto version 9.5.1 currently sold at the AppStore requires MacOS X 10.9.x. If you you are not running Mavericks, you could try to buy a boxed retail version of iLife '11. That will have a compatible early iPhoto 9.x version.
