Getting iPhoto back after Leopard installation.

Hi
I installed Leopard a while ago and promptly lost iPhoto. I was told to reinstall ilife from the original tiger disks open it in finder and double-click on "install bundled software only".
I did this but it won't let me install bundled software only as the install or 'continue' button is greyed out.
Can anyone shed light on why this is happening and how I can get around it to install iPhoto?
Many thanks
kate

You need to re-install iPhoto from the system restore disks that came with your Mac. Choose to install the bundled applications only.

How to get iphoto back after upgrading to 10.6.8

How do i get iphoto back after it has been deleted

Phone Apple Support and order replacement disks, or restore it from backup, or if your computer supports it, upgrade the OS and buy iPhoto from the Mac App Store.

HT4711 how do I get iPhoto back after reinstalling mac os x lion?

I lost Iphoto app after I reinstalled mac os x lion, and cant get it back.....any suggestions?

iPhoto is not part of the OS X installation. It's a separate app.
Log in to the App Store and download it again - it doesn’t require a purchase.

How do I get iphoto back after Yosemite 10.10.3

I have just added the Yosemite 10.10.3 security update to my macbook pro and found that iPhoto has been replaced by a piece of software called Photos.
The replacement application was not wanted and has been forced onto my machine without asking.
Question is.... How do I get my original iPhoto back and the photographs without resorting to a full restore?
Any ideas..... please.....
Andy

Yes as you already now know iPhoto can still be found in applications,,, HOWEVER, be warned that apple just informed me yesterday that it will eventually disappear and you will need to have all of your iPhoto albums transferred from iPhoto to new Photos pgm just to be prepared for eventual shelving of iPhoto,
I found this out because immediately after updating to os x 10.10.3 and as well after updating to the new photos pgm, my iMac all of a sudden no longer shows my camera under Devices in the Finder, and worst of all would NO longer recognize .jpg downloads from my camera (specifically Canon Powershot G6), I have spent 2-3 hours per day for last 2 days on phone with apple techs and they made me do a sh L t load of tests, and file caches adjustments etc… etc…, including a recovery re-install of these recent updates, but it still does not work, they have decided that the issue is definately not a problem with my camera as I was able to download the pics to an old laptop successfully, and then transfer them to a thumb drive and then was able to successfully transfer the .jpg's to my iMac using the thumb drive,(a long and painful process), plus all jpg's that were already in my iMac are still recognized and usable, it's when i try to download jpg pictures from a camera to either of the following pgm's; "image capture", "iPhoto", and even new "Photos" pgm, computer does not recognize .jpg's and gives error (-9937).
they said that problem is with one of 3 issues;
1) new OS X 10.10.3
2) Application specific ("Image capture", "iPhoto" or "Photos") - not likely that all 3 now have issues at same time.
3) Compatibility issue (specifically that the new OS system is no longer compatible with my specific camera)
They refused to pick one, and the specific tech dept. "photos team, image capture team" would not speak with me and simply told this tech guy to tell me to do a recovery re-install of these new updates and OS, which did not work.
BTW, this tech guy i am talking with is a senior tech who claims he does not know everything about image capture issues. he is supposed to call me back today (Day 3) (LOL are we having Fun yet??? LOLL) to find out if re-install worked,,, IT DID NOT!
MOST IMPORTANT PART OF STORY;;; I have found online that jpg downloads not being recognized occurring immediately after an OS update/upgrade go back as far as 2009/2010. on a hit and miss occurrence.
I am going to take a guess and say that there is a bug in new OS or somehow the proper Drivers incl. in update for my camera have a bug. Canon web site says drivers are not available on their site for OS X 10.10.3 and are included in iMac OS software. Also Canon's Image browser software is no longer available for OS X 10.8 or higher.
They said senior tech who is calling me back today says if recovery re-install of updates do not work(it did not) he would take some pertinent info from my computer or on their end, (he was vague about that) and report it to appropriate dept. to see if they can get back to me shortly with a fix, (not holding my breath), or a future Bug fix/OS Update which he said could take 3-6 months.
They also recommend that I buy a memory card reader and every time I wish to transfer pictures from my camera to my computer, that i should remove the compact flash card from camera and put into memory card reader and transfer it to my iMac that way (for me thats 2-4 times per day, as I sell on eBay, Kijiji and Craig's List.), No more simply plugging my camera into my iMac using USB.

How do i get iPhoto back after deleting

bought a imac and had pre loaded ilife apps ready to be downloaded in purchased tab and accidently deleted iphoto and imovie. how do i get them back?

If I'm following correctly it sounds like you may have clicked on the 'x' when viewing your purchases. This, as you've discovered, hides them. To make them visible again, log in to your Mac App Store Account and select 'your account' and you should see that you have some hidden articles. In the image the arrow shows what you need to click on - it should be obvious from there.

I paid for upgrade on iphoto, now i can not get iphoto back after deleting it

How to get iPhoto back after hard drive replaced?

I went in to get a new hard drive on my MacBook Pro because it had stopped working and lost everything on my laptop including iPhoto.
How should I go about getting the app back?

reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

Is there a way to get iPhoto back after updating to photos beta for mac?

I recently purchased a new macbook air. I wanna transfer all my photos from my current iMac to my new laptop. I have several problems though. I did the beta program and i'm running 10.10.3 on my iMac. as a part of having 10.10. 3, you get the photos beta and no longer get access to iPhoto. i see no way of backing up your photos to an external HD using that program. There's nothing online regarding the matter either. I don't think this beta of 10.10.3 is very good either. I want to use the regular 10.10. 2. That's why i don't simply just use Time Machine. Does anyone have any tips?

i see no way of backing up your photos to an external HD using that program.
You do it exactly the same way as you do with iPhoto.
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store
The Photos beta does nothing to iPhoto. It coexists with it. Did you ever have iPhoto on the machine?
The only way to roll back an update when you don't have a back up is to erase the disk and start over.

IPhoto lost after leopard installation- new Mac user needs your help!!

First, let me state: BRAND NEW MAC USER- BEWARE!
Just got a new mac for Christmas (refurbished). It came with iPhoto. My first call was to technical support about issues installing Leopard. After we resolved those problems, iPhoto was gone (as well as several other less essential things like checkers, etc). Since I installed Leopard, do I now need to repurchase iLife or iPhoto? iPhoto was the real reason we bought the system- I'm dying to use it but it has vanished. I know so many people have posted questions about similar issues but they all seemed to have existing libraries that aren't working correctly. So forgive me if this is a repeat questions but I'd really appreciate the help. Take pity on a very new and very lost user... Thank you!

How can I get iPhoto back after clean install mac os x 10.8

Hi All,
I have some problem after I upgrade mac from 10.7 to 10.8 with clean install I can't find it in app purchased from iTune.
Could you please advise me how to fix this problem.
Thanks,

Most likely the original source is the App store (choice 2 in my answer) for this system. Look under the purchased tab in the app store while you are logged in under the Apple ID you regisitered the computer with

Can I get my iPhotos back after a harddrive crash?

Can I get my iPhotos back after a hard drive crash?

Assuming you have been backing up then yes just restore from your backup. If you have not been backing up then you are about to learn a painful lesson on why backing up is critical. Recovering data from a crashed HD is expensive (thousands of dollars expensive) and slow. You will need to contact a Data Recovery service or purchase data recovery software such as Data Rescue 3.
If you can provide more information then perhaps we can give you more advice.

TS4036 I can not find my photos or contacts. Help how do I get them back after a icloud back-up was done due to needed a new phone..

I cannot find my photos or contacts. Help how do I get them back after a iclound backup was done due to needed to get a new iphone. HELP

I believe I had leopard and I was having issues getting errors of system not being supported. I contacted Apple and was advised I needed to upgrade to snow leopard. My laptop is from 2009 and I haven't done anything to it till now. The apple rep also stated I should do a fresh install when putting snow leopard on so my laptop would run faster. Apple rep told me to get a external hard drive to put my info on it so the fresh install would reset everything to like it was brand new. I had someone help me with getting everything on the EHD.. doing the right format and such and then once that was done I put in the CD for snow leopard and hit install. Which brings me to now, with everything but my pictures. I have the EHD plugged in... now what? What do I do? I have looked in the EHD in iphoto and it was all standard images *not my pictures but images of a check mark or an arrow again not actual pictures. I don't see a folder pictures and i looked for images and found nothing. I have Applications, Included Free Designs, Library, System, User Guides and Information and Users, those are my options and non of those have a "pictures"
I have iPhoto '09 version 8.1.2 & Mac OS X version 10.6.3

How can I get iPhoto back on my iMac?

My Mac died so I'm now using my brother's old iMac running Mac OS X version 10.5.8.
He didn't give me any disks to do a reinstall so I used a friend's to wipe the data and start new with mine. Unfortunately, I didn't think about all the programs that were on it. Luckily, I had my software disks still for Microsoft suite & Quicken. But, iPhoto isn't on here and now I can only view my massive amounts of photos using preview. Nothing is organized in folders, I can't edit, and generally is making me very sad.
I can't purchase iLife or iPhoto because I'm running an older version of OS X.
I don't can't upgrade to the newest OS X because I'm running too old of a version of OS X.
I can't find anywhere to buy or download from Apple any version of OS X but the newest one.
What gives?
Any suggestions on how to get iPhoto back?

Well, you can purchase and upgrade the OS o Snow Leopard here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard and then run software update to get to 10.6.8 to access the Mac App Store and purchase iLife.
Or you can just go here http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_0_5?url=search-alias%3Dsoftware&field-key words=ilife&sprefix=Ilife%2Caps%2C183 and purchase iLife

How do i get Iphoto back?

I deleted Iphoto and now i have no idea how to get it back.
I recently changed apple ids and deleted my old one which i first used on my macbook pro about 3 months ago. Now i have i have accidently deleted iphoto and whenever i go to the app store to reinstall it i get an accept button instead of a buy/purchase button and then this error message once i click on the accept button:
"These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."
So i dont have the apple ID they were first assigned too and i dont want to purchase this application. So i was wondering if there is any way to reinstall it or recover it because my macbook pro came with iphoto already installed.

iPhoto is part of iLife, not OS X. You'll need to either reinstall iLife from your original disks (not sure what version you have or if it will even work with Leopard) or get iLife '08 (probably the most straightforward way to get iPhoto back.)
