Doesn't iPhoto come with 10.5?

I recently tried to use iPhoto, probably for the first time since upgrading from 10.3.9. The version listed in my applications folder is 2.0.1, which isn't compatible with 10.5.5. Doesn't the most recent version of iPhoto come with the OS? How can I get an iPhoto that works with 10.5? Or do I have to buy something else?

Or follow the Adobe model and simply charge a nominal fee to upgrade
As I said, you can buy the complete iLife '08 package of applications for about half the price of just a Photoshop upgrade.
The point is, the Apple applications and the Adobe applications are aimed at different markets. iPhoto isn't designed to compete with Photoshop and Photoshop isn't designed to compete with iPhoto. (BTW, I've been a Photoshop user since the original beta test when it fit on a single floppy disk.) I almost never use iPhoto, but I do use iDVD, iMovie and iWeb and occasionally GarageBand. I think the iApps are a GREAT bargain!

    I have multiple iPhoto albums, so this move is pushing thousands of pictures to each library. Why doesn't this come with a "No, Thanks!" option since I've ALREADY ensured the MobileMe albums were captured? I've never seen Apple force an action like this!
    Worse - According to http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4328, "photos you published to MobileMe from your library may be moved from their original events into a new event called "From MobileMe"." - so the forced move has probably scrambled my events in every library. The 'fix'? Search for matching photos and if not found, copy and paste into the desired event. It will take DAYS for me to recover from this undesired and ill-considered forced action.

    Load your backup from just before this and when you launch iPhoto click on learn more. Go back to iPhoto and in the iPhoto preferences remove all references to MM and do likewise in the system preferences

    I had facetime and I have mountain lion. However, after an update facetime disappeared.  Doesn't it come with mountain lion?  What do I need to do to find facetime?  Do I need to repurchase it?

  • HT1338 does iphoto come with mac osx

    I recently had to get my hard drive replaced by Apple, and was wondering - doesn't iPhoto / GarageBand come standard with OS X?  I've not had to pay for it (and my Apps Store purchases confirm this), but now that I have the hard drive back, I don't have iPhoto, GarageBand or iMovie anymore.  If someone could cofirm this for me, that woudl be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Niel.  That helps - I guess my question is if you think that if Apple (under warranty) had to replace the hard drive, if they should have installed iPhoto and other software again?  To me they should as the replacing of the hard drive was not my choice.  But I am a relatively new Apple customer and so unaware of their practices.
    Your thoughts are appreciated.

  • Didn't iPhoto come with Tiger?

    Isn't iPhoto part of OS-X Tiger? I could have sworn I had it on my Mac when I installed Tiger. I might have deleted it thinking I would never use it as I have been disappointed by past versions. But the more I read about it, I want to try it again. How can I get it back?

    Hi Brian,
    No it does not come with tiger. It probably came installed on your new computer. You will need to either buy the iLife package or try to install it from your computer software CD/DVD. check out the links for a solution that pertains to your situation.

  • Why doesn't it come with an A/C power adapter?

    I haven't yet purchased a separate A/C adapter. I thought that if one were necessary, it would have been supplied -- after all, an iPod ain't cheap. I know I can charge it by plugging into the USB port on the PC but this does more than charge it. I find that, although I have set it up not to sync automatically, it will reset things on my iPod -- for example, I lose my currentl Now Playing playlist. The Do Not Disconnect message is also very disconcerting until you figure out how to eject it.
    When it got stuck in the diagnostic screen (another thread) I had to borrow a friend's A/C cord and plug it in so it could diagnose it ok. I don't know whether it would have been okay with just the USB cord because it asked for that too.
    So, it appears that an A/C adapter is really a necessity. So why isn't one supplied with the unit?
    HP Pavilion Notebook   Windows Vista  

    Many people purchasing an iPod nowadays already have a previous version, thus they alread have an AC adaptor. By not including the adaptor in the box, they are able to keep the price down a bit (if it was included, we would be paying for it to be there), and allow the users to decide whether they need/want one or not.
    For example, I bought a 5g iPod last december. I had no need for an adaptor because the adaptor that came with my mini I had purchased several years earlier still works just fine. By not including an accessory that I have no use for in the box, Apple probably saved me $20 or so. Seems fair enough to me.
    Cheers!

  • IPhoto doesn't come with Mountain Lion??

    Whats the deal? iPhoto comes with Lion when you upgrade from Snow Leopard, but not when you go from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion?? Apple is all about this iCloud crap, but they malke you pay another $15 to use photostream?? Crapple Apple.

    Gee thanks
    iLife is not available for a PC  -- 
    Of, course, it is pretty irreleveant to this discussion, but I thought I would point it out.

  • How come iPhoto is for sale if it comes with a Mac

    I am thinking of buying my first Mac and was told that iPhoto comes with the Mac for free. But when I searched it online it said that iPhoto was available in the Mac App Store for €11.99. I was wondering whether the one that comes on the Mac is a trial version or is it the full version, and if so why is it for sale on the Mac App Store

    Your new Mac will have iPhoto, GarageBand and iMovie free, but it doesn't come preinstalled. You have to download them in the App Store, but they will be free for you because the App Store checks the serial number. It can be purchased in older Macs

  • I have the version of iPhoto that comes with my OS when I purchased my MacBook, but now I can't open it, because it says this, "You can't open the application "iPhoto" because it may be damaged or incomplete. Please help I have tons of family photos.

    I have the version of iPhoto that comes with my OS when I purchased my MacBook, but now I can't open it, because it says this, "You can’t open the application “iPhoto” because it may be damaged or incomplete. Please help I have tons of family photos.

    1 - the iPhoto application is an application and does not hole your photos - your photos are in the iPhoto library an dour normal daily backup will back them up so your photos are safe
    2 - what exactly does the error message say? You probably need to reinstall the iPhoto application form the original source
    3 - note that no version of iPhoto comes with any OS - iPhoto comes with all new Macs but not with any OS and most OS versions can run many different versions of iPhoto

  • IPhoto compatible with Sony Handycam (with mini-DVD)?

    I have a Sony Handycam and a MacBook Pro with iPhoto. The Handycam takes decent pictures and video, but it does not have a port for a memory stick. Also, the upload software that the Handycam came with... well... isn't so good. (I'm not sure if it's even Mac-compatible.)
    Unfortunately, the Sony Handycam is not listed as one of the "cameras" that iPhoto comes with. (I put the word "cameras" in quotes because the Handycam is more a video camera than a still camera even though it takes still pictures.)
    If anyone here knows of a workaround so that I can upload pictures from my Handycam to my MacBook Pro using iPhoto (or other appropriate software in the iLife suite), please let me know! I'm dying to have an excuse to not install the uploading software the Handycam came with.
    Thanks in advance!

    The Handycam's video format is one that in not OS X compatible. i don't know about the stills, however. I don't believe the mini-DVD disc that it create is Mac readable either. It's designed to go straight to DVD players and display the videos and stills on a TV set.
    Do a search in the iPhoto 6 forum for "Sony Handycam" and you'll find previous topics on the subject. You might also try in the iDVD and iMovie forums.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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 written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Logic Studio comes with quicktime 7 Pro.   where is it?

    as the box indicates in the "contents" section beside the requirements section in the top side of the box, it gives the list of all the softwares that come with logic studio (e.i. logic pro, soundtrack pro2, waveburner, compressor... blah blah blah all that... but it says close to the end: quicktime PRO 2, which i guess is a "better" version, or it has more features... i dont know. the thing is i dont quite see that i actually have it installed on my mac. when i open quicktime and check on the "about quicktime.." it says its only quicktime.. but doesnt say anything about being PRO 2. its also the 7.5.5 version...
    Since i installed everything from logic studio.. and still cant seem to find a way to see that QT pro 2 has been installed on my mac, can anyone explain to me what could be happening?
    thanks.

    This has had a lot of people confused. Logic doesn't actually come with any software for Quicktime Pro, because you already have it imbedded into the regular version of Quicktime. When you buy QTP, or buy something like Logic that includes it, it simply 'unlocks' your regular version of Quicktime, which allows you access to a bunch of features that regular Quicktime didn't have.
    Open System Preferences->Quicktime, and it should say: 'Registered To: Apple Pro Apps User' and 'Registration Code: Automatic.' You'll also notice that the 'Q' graphic on that window has a little 'PRO' tag on it too.
    If you were still running the regular Quicktime, when you went to the QT Player, and dropped down any of the menus from the menubar, most of the options would be grayed out and say 'Pro Only,' or something like that. Now all of the options in those menus will be available.
    And yes, it should be version 7.5.5.

    Where is the "Accept" portion of the screen ?
