Error:: This Library creaktkekdk with unrelesed version of iPhoto. Help.

The message goes on to say, open in iPhoto 2 or 4 before trying to upgrade to 6. I have numerous Libraries on external RAID. All opened fine under 5.
I certainly never had unreleased version of any Apple program, nor do I know where to get copy of iPhoto 2 or 4. ANY IDEAS? THANKS.

Should have said CREATED with unreleased version.
SORRY the gardner walked by and my fingers went wild for a moment

  • Iphoto message: library created with unreleased version of iphoto

    Hi I'm brand new to the forum--know others have had a similar issue--
    I get the message that says library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto, and I should quit and open with version 2 or 4. when this message appears the only choice is to quit--iphoto menu bar is not available.
    I'm also new to Mac. I bought my powerbook August 2005, but I can't even open iphoto to tell exactly which version I have. I imagine its 5.something.
    I have about 3500 photos on here, but can only see them through preview, not my iphoto library. Wondering if this is related to the fact that my 512 usb memory stick seems to have been making my entire computer freeze (there are photos stored on it). Is it possible I picked up a virus from a PC via my memory stick and it's messing with iphoto? please help. I am completely dependent on this machine--I use it for 8-10 hours every day.
    thanks,
    RF

    Hi RF,
    Just highlight the iPhoto.app in your applications folder and in the next column it should tell you the version (viewing in column view)
    I don't know the reason you go this message, though you are not the first one.
    So far I have not seen any solution for that error message in these discussions. If you have a recent backup of your iPhoto Library folder then take the old library out of the Pictures folder and put your backup library in there (I suggest you backup the backup before you do this) Launch iPhoto and hopefully everything will be back to normal. If you don't have a backup then...
    The only thing I can tell you to do right now is to create a new library and import/add to the library to reimport your images.
    these are the steps:
    Close iPhoto
    Drag the iPhoto Library folder to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto
    In the next window that opens choose to create a new library.
    When the new empty library opens go to File/add to library
    In the next window navigate to the library on your desktop and choose it.
    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.
    You will have to redo your albums, keywords, etc.
    Good luck!

  • When opening the latest version of Iphoto 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 lat

    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.

  • Opening iphoto I get an error message that says "you can't open your current photo 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.

    Opening iphoto I get an error message that says "you can't open your current photo 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."  I wouldn't have a clue as to how to change to a new version of iphoto even if I wanted to. 

    If you don't have a backup you can resort to give this a try:
    Starting over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • I try to open iphoto and it comes up with You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. I have downloaded photo manager and it's telling me to update but it wont update...

    I try to open iphoto and it comes up with You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. I have downloaded photo manager and it's telling me to update but it wont update...

    iPhoto is Apple's included program to manage your photo's and pictures.
    It receives updates over time with Software updates and new machine or iLife purchases.
    When iPhoto gets updated or a newer version is used, it may alter iPhoto support files, but newer iPhoto versions usually always compatible with older files which it then updates.
    If you used a newer iPhoto on your iPhoto support files, then they got altered to the newer format, older iPhoto versions can't read the older format.
    Somewhere along the line you somehow got a older version of iPhoto on your computer, you need to fine the newer version of iPhoto (not this photo manager, sounds like another program)
    Or somewhere along the line you used a newer iPhoto version (like on another Mac) and it altered the iPhoto support files on your older version of iPhoto.
    So the key here is to find the newest version of iPhoto and use that to access your iPhoto support files.
    If you didn't access your iPhoto support files from another Mac, then you should have the newer iPhoto version on your computer.
    Once you find it, and get it in the Dock, you should remove the older iPhoto version from your computer to prevent this from happening again.
    Lastly, if the newer version of iPhoto is somehow gone off your computer, you should be able to get a copy off the latest OS X install disk or iLife using a free program called Pacifist.

    Then you need to check for updates for iPhoto in the program itself, the current version is 9.1.2

  • You can't open photo 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

    you can't open photo library using this version of iphoto. you have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iphoto. please quit and use latest version of iphoto. iphoto 11 is installed.

    This is a message you got?
    If so, as your post isn't clear, it may be a bogus message caused by a corrupt database.
    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 just reinstalled and this is the question that show "You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Do you want to quit and use the latest version of iPhoto, or do you want to create a new photo library?"  what do i do next

    I just reinstalled and this is the pop up that shows "You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Do you want to quit and use the latest version of iPhoto, or do you want to create a new photo library?"  what do i do next? it just keeps popping up and loading but only gives a quit button?

    Update it.
    How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
    If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
    Otherwise you update via Softare Update

  • You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. What can I do?

    My home was recently burgularized and my Intel MacBook Pro was stolen I had a backup but my other computer is a G5 PowerPC running 10.5.8 and I am getting the following error:
    You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto.
    Obviously I cannot install a newer version of iPhoto on my G5 so what recourse do I have to get my images back?
    Help

    You have two options:
    Run the Library on a machine that has the same version as the machine that was stolen.
    or
    Recover the files from this library and start over from scratch.
    To recover the files:
    Go to your Pictures Folder (or whereever you have the back up) and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Your originals are in the Masters folder.
    Note this will only recover your photos as imported from you camera.

    This is the message I'm getting when I try to open iphoto. This happened after a member of the genius bar fixed the problem with the download of the update of the Mac OSX combined.

    Well, I'll guess it's iPhoto 11 then.

  • You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Do you want to quit and use the latest version of iPhoto, or do you want to create a new photo library?

    Long story short, I made a backup using TimeMachine of my iMac.  I got my MBA which was being repaired and i restored from backup.  Everything works fine, except for iPhoto which is not saying:
    "You have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Do you want to quit and use the latest version of iPhoto, or do you want to create a new photo library?"
    I have OS X 10.7.2 and iPhoto 9.1.4.  I've tried:
    Repairing permissions
    Deleting iPhoto, installing agaian, and updating
    Repaired iPhoto Library (stays stuck at 98% when rebuilding database)
    I've also tried iPhoto Library manager which cannot even see the library
    Tried restoring from backup from iPhoto and it messed up library (I still had my backup)
    Quite frustrating - any ideas on how to get iPhoto back to life?

    Dunno why Software update was not displaying the latest version of iPhoto (9.2.1 as of January 27, 2012)...updating to this has fixed the issue

    How do i update my camera raw? I can not find the download update I've just brought a new d4s and I'm using the iMac with cs6 version. PLEASE HELP..

    The Adobe auto updater is pretty decent in CS6.  Just go to the Photoshop Help menu > Updates.
    You will be able to update ACR, Photoshop and Bridge right there, if there are in fact updates available.
