Finally, I got iPhoto 6 installed, no regret.

I just picked up a copy of iLife06 after dinner, did what Old Toad mentioned in the other thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=348637&tstart=0. Before the installation, I recorded the numbers of each photo folder. Installed iPhoto 6, repair permission, restart my powerbook. Launch iPhoto 6, convert my library and rebuild thumbnails. Installation took a few minutes and it was nice and smooth. After all, I check my photo folders again, the numbers of photos are exact the same as what I had in iPhoto 5. I quickly went through my photo library and all the photos are still there. Then I run the 6.01 update and repair permission, launch iPhoto again and it works. One thing I don't understand is, most people in the forum claim the iPhoto library size has been increased after upgrade, I actually got less after upgrade. Before upgrade the size was 8.46gb, now I have 8.37 in iPhoto 6 folder.
Thank god.......I will spend a bit more time playing with iPhoto 6 tomorrow, keep you guys posted. Cross my fingers
P.S. The performance is incredible, much faster than iPhoto 5, it rocks!

It means you will need to upgrade to iPhoto 08 at least. As to what else you need to upgrade will depend on what exactly is on your machine.

Finally got iphoto to open....

Hi,
I finally got iphoto to open. I removed my old library of 2500+ pictures to the desk top and created a new library (after five hours of trying to get it to load my old library). Now I troed to imprt pictures from my old library and it is saying that the file could not be loaded because it is an unreadable file type or that the file does not contain valid data.... now what should I do

Hi Kim,
the steps you took seem like they are right, but let's go over them again to make sure.
Close iPhoto
Drag iPhoto Library folder from the Pictures folder to the desktop
Launch iPhoto and at the prompt, choose to create a new library
Name the new library
Go to File/add to library and navigate to the library on the desktop and choose it
If these were the steps you took, and it looks like they were, I am not sure why you are getting the error message.
Usually the two reasons you get this error message are:
1. You are trying to import files that are already in the iPhoto Library folder that you are currently using.
2. The files are corrupt
To check to see if the files are corrupt, navigate through that library on the desktop and double click the images you find. If they open in Preview they are fine and not corrupt. If they don't open in Preview, then they are corrupt.
Check back with your results.

Had to install a new hard drive, and I cannot get iPhoto to install

I just had to replace the hard drive in my PowerBook, and I seem to be missing iPhoto after installing everything. All of the other iLife apps installed, but for some reason, no iPhoto in the Dock or in the Applications folder. I will explain what I did to restore my system in case I didn't do it correctly.
When I bought my PowerBook back in '05, it came with Panther, and when Tiger came out, I upgraded. Since the Tiger box and discs do not say "Upgrade" on them, I figured they are a full version of the OS and all of the iLife apps. Also, I thought that if it is only an upgrade that I would not be able to install the OS from the Tiger discs. I had no problems installing Tiger (without having to install Panther), but none of the iLife apps were on my computer. I got out my original Panther restore discs and chose to install applications, and it listed all of the iLife apps. When installation was complete, all of the apps were there except iPhoto. Doesn't make sense to me why it would install everything else and not iPhoto.
Can anyone help me?

I have iPhoto 11 installed on my iMac. Has been working for last several months ok. I am trying to create photo books but it gets hung up after I select create book. Does not create the project. Used to work but won't create any projects

ILife 11 (iphoto 11) installed over a year ago with no issues. Have been creating Apple Books with no issues till now. iPhoto now will not create books, calenders or anything else. After I select "create" it does nothing. Used to work Ok. Program seems to stall and do nothing. I can still look at events and other picture files but it will now not create a "project" / "book" Anyone with a similar issue????

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

I can't update iPhoto after installing yosemite

i can't update or open iPhoto after installing yosemite

Ok so here's what you gonna do. (had this problem myself today, and after some fiddling figured out what to do.)
Find your old iPhoto with a cross through it, right-click it and select 'show package contents'. A folder will open. In that folder go to Contents>MacOS and there will be three little things there. Click on the one called 'iPhoto' and terminal will open. Leave terminal open and wait four seconds and VOILA! iPhoto opens. Leave terminal open until you are finished with iPhoto, because if you close terminal, iPhoto will close with it. THX! ENJOY! Hope it works.
P.S.
You can close terminal once you close iPhoto. I also suggest backing up your iPhoto library while you can.

I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice. Also, a second library was created and it became the default library. I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open. what can I do to revert to the old library?

I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice. Also, a second library was created and it became the default library. I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open. what can I do to revert to the old library?

Both iPhotos open to a default library (#2) which has 300+ photos, I attempted to "switch to library" under the file tab in iPhoto and tried to choose "other library" which had most of my photos. When I attempt to open it, it doesn't do anything. I can see it and there are 2 libraries but it won't open.
Have you tried to open your old iPhoto library by double-clicking it directly, instead of using the File menu? That should work, if you are running iPhoto '11 and the library has been created by that version or an older version. DO you get an error message, if you select the library directly in the Finder?
I checked and it is the latest version of iPhoto.
Is it iPhoto '11, version 6.0.5? "Latest version" is ambiguous, because it will depend on your system version.
Where is your iPhoto Library stored?

I've got Blackberry Link installed, but I can't get my BB to sync with my Outlook contacts

I've got Outlook 2010 installed on my laptop.
Blackberry link appears to have installed properly.
When I try to sync my Q5 with Outlook I don't get any error messages, but after the process is completed I check Outlook and none of the contacts have sync'd from my phone to Outlook (but it has successfully sync'd the existing contacts from Outlook to my phone).
Edit: should probably mention that my email address is a gmail account, and most of the contacts in my BB are being pulled from my gmail contacts. Does that make a difference?

Not sure if the above link will help, worth a look.

I had final cut express 4 already installed on my new macbook but can't open it because it is asking for my serial number which is on the disc. I've put it in with and without dashes and dots and it won't accept it. What do I do?

I had final cut express 4 already installed on my new macbook pro at the shop but I'm trying to open it up and it wants my serial number. I've typed in the number on the disc labelled 'product serial number' but it won't accept it. The number has lots of dots and dashes in it and I've tried typing these as well, but to no avail. What can I do?

You do need the dashes.
Also double check that O & 0, I & 1 are not being confused.
The serial no. pretty much follows a three numbers then three letters approach.

Issues printing with iPhoto after installing OS X 10.10.2

After working with 2nd and 3rd level Apple Support I was able to print photos using iPhoto after installing OS X 10.10.2. I have an HP 7520 all in one ePrinter and the latest Yosemite driver have been installed. When I tried to print a photo using iPhoto the application would hang and I had to force quit to continue. Apple support was able to identify the problem. The iPhoto application had an outstanding print job listed in the Recent heading on the left side of the screen, I do not know how this happened, but after clearing out this print job I was able to print from iPhoto. The Apple Support person said I could avoid this problem by hitting the cancel button located near the print button on the bottom of iPhoto, after any print activity had finished. He said this was a known problem when using iPhoto and Yosemite.

EW,
Kernel Panics here on the same model. My problems started after the recent Firmware Update for Airport and Airport Expresses (7.6). No other new software installed besides the Firmware Update and they are occurring daily.
I haven't seen any remedies yet....

IPhoto says "installing" in app store, on iMac with Yosemite, but it never gets installed.

I have an older iMac, 24" from the late 2009 era, have upgraded to Yosemite, but now iPhoto won't open. It says that I need to go to the app store and install the new version. When I do that very thing, iPhoto says, "Installing" in the gray box that used to say Install, but it never seems to finish installing. What can I do to fix this?

What can I do to fix this?
Start over.
Find iPhoto on the Launch Pad, hold down on it, till the LaunchPad items start to wiggle, then click the cross to uninstall iPhoto.
Restart your Mac, then try to install iPhoto again.
