Downloading iPhoto

I have an iMac and have the downloaded the trial version of Elements 9.
My version of iPhoto is 08 and the Elements Organiser states that I must update to version 8.0 to 8.1.2. Not sure if this means I must update to 09 version. Can any one advise?
I have copied some photos from iPhoto onto a CD and imported to Elements Organiser, which was successful, but will this duplicate photos and use up my hard drive?

While importing from CD or any other removable media drive, Organize import dialog gives you three options:
1)  First one is to copy the files on hard disk. In this case, the files' paths will be that of hard disk. You can use them as you use your hard disk photos.
Option: Select 'Copy File on Import' checkbox. It is checked by default.
2) Second one is to save the files as low resolution previews. Though your files' paths will remain that of the CD but for general viewing, emailing and printing these low resolution previews will be used.
Option: Select 'Generate Previews' check box. It gets selected on unchecking 'Copy File on Import' checkbox.
3) Third one is to neither copy nor generate previews. You can view the file but it'll get pixellate on increasing the size. All Organizer operations will require CD in the drive.
Option: Uncheck both 'Copy File on Import' and ''Generate Previews' checkbox.

    i currently have a macbook 2.1xersion 10.6.8 and want to update. what can it support? Everything i try, it won't support! I can't even download IPhoto! I can't open anything in my ICloud account either! its not on my current browser nor am i able when logging onto my ICloud account. Can anyone give me some advice besides buying a newer laptop?

    Lion 10.7.5 is as far as you can go. You must have at least 2 GBs of installed RAM.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
    If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. Or you can order directly on the online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • I just downloaded iPhoto 9.6 onto my iMac, that runs Yosemite, and the program won't open at all.

    I just brought my iMac back from the Apple Store after having a new hard drive installed. I wanted to put my photos back onto the computer using the back-up I had made on an external hard drive.
    I downloaded iPhoto from the App Store, and initially it opened. I tried to import a folder of photos, but nothing happened. It froze. I did a Force Quit, and tried to import just one photo. Again, it froze, and I did a Force Quit. Then I tried to simply open the program. I got the spinning wheel, and when I looked at the Force Quit box, iPhotos had stopped responding.
    I tried to open it using Command+Option, and tried the first option to repair (I can't remember what that option is now), but got the same result. Then I unplugged the external hard-drive and tried twice to open it - once normally, and once using the Command+Option method. Same spinning wheel, and "not responding" message in the "Force Quit" box.
    I sent the Force Quit reports (or whatever they're called) to Apple, but I have no idea what they said as I don't understand them.
    I have a 27 inch mid-2011 iMac, running Yosemite (10.10.1), and iPhoto is 9.6.
    Please help! What am I doing wrong?

    I just tried to open iPhoto by holding down option+command key, and opening it from the dock (and not the icon in applications) - and it opened!
    Right-click or ctrl-click the icon in the Dock and select "options > Show in Finder". ,This will show you, where the iPhoto version is installed, that you are running.
    It should be revealing the iPhoto version in your Applications folder. Does it? 

  • I can't download iphoto after upgrading to Yosemite

    I keep getting the message "unknown error" when I try to download Iphoto from the app store.

    This error message will appear erraneously, if you skipped the update to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1 and went straight from an earlier MacS X version to Yosemite, without first updating to iPhoto 9,5.1 and associating it to your AppleID.
    Try first to buy iPhoto with your AppleID, as Kappy suggested. Delete iPhoto from Applications, but don't empty the Trash, then go to the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto. If you are lucky, it will show as free and you can buy it directly.
    If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support: Ask for a redemption code. You will need to provide a prove of purchase for your mac with iPhoto preinstalled.

  • Can't download iPhoto from App store to my MacBook

    Hi
    I have been trying to  download iPhoto from the desktop app store to my MacBook Pro. No probs downloading other apps. Signed in with my Apple ID to make the purchase etc. After I click on "Install" it loads up - takes quite a while -  then nothing happens and it seems not to complete - it just shows the "Install" button again and I have to go through it all again, with the same result!  Help! It's so annoying!

    Contact the support on the App Store. You've bought it but they haven't managed to deliver it.
    Regards

  • I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id.

    I purchased a macbook air from someone on craigslist, and when i try to download iPhoto, it tells me that these apps were already designated to another apple id. any way to reset the app store from thinking it's still alligned with him? Lion was reset already, but this isn't. If i download on my mac mini, will i then be able to retrieve the download on my air?

    Hi...
    On the MBAir drag the iPhoto app to the Trash, empty the Trash.
    Then try purchasing and downloading iPhoto.
    You can re download iPhoto on all your authorized Macs. To authorize the MBAir, launch iTunes. From the menu bar click Store > Authorize This Mac. You will be prompted for your Apple ID and password.
    Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
    Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
    Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed  then click Install.
    Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

  • I just downloaded iphoto from the app store and now it tells me I have an update but it tells me I need to sign on to the user name I used when I purchased the upgrade. I am in the correct username. Whats wrong?

    I just downloaded iPhoto upgrade for my Macbook. I just bought Lion and wanted to upgrade my iLife suite. I downloaded this and it works great. I looked the other day at the App Store and saw it said upgrade beside iPhoto. I clicked it and it told me to sign in as the username I bought the upgrade from. I am in the correct log in.
    Also I have Lion and it is amazing but it says download beside it. I have Lion and I don't need to download it again. I click it and it reinstalls it to my computer just to tell me that it cannot be installed. Whats up with these situations?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities,
    I had a similar issue and it was an easy fix for me. First you need to log out of your account completely in the Mac App Store. Quit the application. Re-open the Mac App Store. Click log-in, enter your Apple-ID and password. Now when the screen pops-up that has all of your billing/credit card information on it DO NOT select done. Instead select View my Account, then select View hidden purchases. There you should be able to find iPhoto. Hope this helps if not let me know. I'm still searching solutions for you.

  • Why won't iPhoto download? I've downloaded the new Yosemite and now it won't let me download iphoto 9.6

    I have a Macbook pro. I recently downloaded Yosemite and once that had downloaded iphoto was not compatible (it had a barred sign across it). So I moved it to the trash bin and went to the app store to download the latest version of iphoto 9.6. However when I get there it says install but when I try and click on it nothing is happening. No pop up comes up, the button does not change to say installing. I do not understand. Please help!

    If you're having problems with the App Store you might try this:
    1 - enable the Debug menu in App Store:
    open the Terminal application.
    copy the command below and paste into the Terminal window:
    defaults write com.apple.appstore ShowDebugMenu -bool true
    followed by Enter.
    launch App Store, login.
    2 - select the Debug ➙ Reset Application option:
    3 - try again.

  • My iphoto library has become unreadable. I am wondering if I shoudl delete iphoto and reinstall? Can I download iphoto from the web? I bought my computer in February of this year. Do I have to buy a new copy of iphoto?

    My iphoto library has become unreadable. I am wondering if I shoudl delete iphoto and reinstall? Can I download iphoto from the web? I bought my computer in February of this year. Do I have to buy a new copy?

    It's probably the library that's the prolem and not the application. Try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If you can create and open a new library then your existing library is damaged.
    If that's the case, Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library 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.

    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.

  • Hello I formatted my iMac today and wanted to download iphoto again but after i press the button to install it in the app store nothing happens! same with the yosemite upgrade..

In the iPhoto ratings there are alot of other people facing this problem I hope somebody can help me. thank you in advance

    If you have OS X 10.6.8 as you state you can not get iphoto form the App store - you must have Yosemite OS X 10.10. installed to download iphoto 9.6 from the App store
    If Nothing happens then you need to contact App store support - link is on the right of the App store window

  • Fail to download iPhoto on App Store...Os X Maverick 10.9.2

    I just recently updated to Maverick. Everything works great except when trying to download iPhoto keep gets fail messages. i already made purchased iPhoto and is in my cloud but can't download it. Please help. I've been trying to download for several days already still get fail message after a few minutes in download process.

    That's actually an issue with the Mac App Store,  and as you paid for the app they have to deliver it. So contact App Store support. There's a link on the right hand side of the App Store Window.

  • I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x.  Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications.  Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures.

    I just downloaded iPhoto 9.5 to replace my old ver. 7.x.  Downloaded the library upgraded but have no idea where it installed as it is not listed in Applications.  Opened iPhoto added my Library (12.5 GB) but iPhoto shows no pictures. In fact, iPhoto indicates that I have zero photos in the library while at the same time indicating the file size as 12.5 GB.

    If your old iPhoto version was iPhoto 7, you need to run the iPhoto Library upgrader:  http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1523
    It will install itself in the Utilities folder in your Applications folder.
    Run it, and after that, you should be able to open your iPhoto Library with iPhoto '11.

  • Bought a 2nd hand MBA but now can't download iPhoto

    I recently bought a 2nd hand Macbook Air and it already had Lion installed. It didn't come with the Lion USB so I can't do a reinstall if I wanted.
    Now when I sign in to the App Store and try to download iPhoto or Garageband, I can't. It says something about my profile not being allowed to download it as the download is attached to another account, presumably the previous owner.
    So how am I able to download iPhoto? I don't mind paying for it, but it still won't let me as the only option I get is "Download".
    Any ideas would be great.
    Thanks

    I think you will need to wipe the drive and reinstall Lion after purchasing your own copy from the App Store. I suggest the first thing you should do now is backup anything on the drive you need to keep. Then sign in to the App Store under your Apple ID and purchase and download Lion if that's possible - I think you should be able to do that.
    How To Re-Download The Lion Installer
    This appeared as a hint at MacOSXHints.com, and will work to force the download of any purchase on the Mac App Store.
    Open the Mac App Store.
    Navigate to your Purchased page.
    Hold down the Option key on your keyboard and click on your 'OS X Lion' purchase link (not on the 'installed' button).
    You see the Lion product page. It should say 'Installed,' but that button is clickable. Hold down the Option key again and click on 'Installed.' If you don't hold the option key it will tell you there's already a newer version installed.
    Enter your login credentials.
    Download.
    It's important to hold down the Option key twice. Once on the Purchased page, once on the Lion page. You also can't navigate to Lion directly, you need to open it from the purchases page.
    If you follow this procedure you should find the Lion Installer in your Applications folder. Be sure to move it to your Downloads folder for safekeeping. Do not use it to install Lion, rather make a copy to use.
    Once you can download Lion you want to keep it and make a bootable USB flash drive installer for yourself:
    Make Your Own Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Lion application. After Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing Lion.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the InstallESD.dmg disc image file into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable Lion installer that  you can use without having to re-download Lion.
    Use the installer to first erase your hard drive then install Lion:
    Install or Reinstall Lion from Scratch
    If possible backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive.
    Boot from your USB flash drive installer:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the USB flash drive and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Erase the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
