HELP I had iPhoto 5 on my IMac and tried to update but WONT WORK now
I just updated my iPhoto 5 to iPhoto 6, it deleted my library, but I fixed that. Now the new iPhoto won't fully download, and when I try to open the old one (5) it tells me to quit and use the newer version.
How do I go back to the old one get the new one to open?
Maybe I'm missing something when I download it. There is one file and one driver-looking thing (both say iPhoto 6). How do I extract or get it to work.
I am new to all this, and getting discourraged just as quit as I started. Help, Please! : (
Jackie:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did you buy iLife 06 to get iPhoto 6? If you did not and tried to run an iPhoto 6 updated on your copy of iPHoto 5 then that's part of the problem.
Now the new iPhoto won't fully download
Download what and from where?
Can you be a little more specific on what version of the iPhoto application is in your Applications folder (select it and type Command-I and the info window will have the version).
Do you Twango?

Deployed and tried to update to 3.0 - now having SERIOUS issues. HELP!!!
Ok, there's a little bit of a back-story. I'm currently deployed but had 3 days in port and tried to update all of my iPhone/Macbook software in between bar visits. Well, my AT&T SIM card was left on the boat so I didn't have it when I tried to update to 3.0. Upon returning and re-inserting my SIM card my iPhone 3G now stays on the 'slide for emergency' screen with no change nor hope of change. We are no longer in port which means I no longer have access to internet on my personal computer, only work computers with no downloading capabilities due to security issues and painfully slow internet. When I plug in my iPhone, iTunes launches immediately (like always) but then goes to the error pop-up telling me that I need to re-check my network settings and try again. I can click on my iPhone in the side menu in iTunes but NOTHING shows up in the window. Like I said, I cannot access the internet on my personal computer.
I decided to attempt to re-install/revert to my old iTunes and just go back to the way things were and try to update again in the next port - remembering to bring my SIM card with me next time. Well, going into Time Machine and attempting to restore iTunes from my last backup a week ago I get an error pop-up that says 'The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient priveleges for "iTunes"'. I have many various Time Machine backups from the time when my iPhone and Macbook were both working well together but have never had to use Time Machine and am thoroughly unfamiliar with it.
While the iPhone is, obviously, crippled due to lack of network capabilities while deployed, I still use it for my daily calendar, alarm clock, music and movie source at the gym, note-taker and various other network-not-required tools and desperately need it back. Please, anyone, PLEASE help me.i suspect you will need a network connection to activate the iphone...
...as for the time machine help might want to check in another discussion forum they might be able to help with time machine better in macbook group or macos group or even the !
thanks for your service... hang in there... don't forget your sim next stop! -
i tried to update my software to 10.9 and forgot i had a disc of pictues in the computer. i stopped the istall as it was trying to go onto the disc of pictures. now its stuck on the os x page and i cant get it to my home screen. can anyone help?
I'm not really sure what you mean by "the os x page". It sounds like the installation did not complete.
I would try this:
hold down the power button until the computer shuts down
take out the disk with the pictures!
restart and see if it will boot up
if it boots up normally, I'd probably try to repair your HD: Boot into your recovery partition (hold down ⌘R at restart until you see the Apple symbol), go to Disk Utility, and repair your hard drive. While you're there, repair permissions too. OSX Tips Using the Recovery HD
Then I'd try to reboot and run the installer again. I think it's a good idea to do the installation in safe mode : Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? .
if it won't boot up normally, I'd try booting from the recovery partition and repairing your HD.
if it won't boot into the recovery partition, your options are:
Try to repair your hard drive with internet recovery: OS X: About OS X Recovery
If you have access to another (working) Mac and a USB thumb drive, download Recovery Disk Assistant, which you can use to repair your hard drive or reinstall OSX: OS X: About Recovery Disk Assistant
Try to boot into single user mode and repair your hard drive: Repair Your Hard Disk in Single User Mode | Everything Macintosh -

Installed YOSEMITE. Lost entire iPhoto Library on my iMac. Tried Apple's UPGRADER 6 times. No LUCK. Please help.
Your iPhoto library is usually kept in your pictures folder. Did you look there? If it is still there then you did lose your photos. Just need to get the iPhoto app at the latest level.

Hello, can anyone tell me how to share my home macbook pro to my imac in the office? I tried file sharing but never worked for me...appreciate if anyone can help!
I should have added to my posting (instead of using this "reply" - it is the server passwork it is asking for and I have never known that I had one and assumed it was the passwork I always used for this type of thing.

Had CS4 on Power PC Mac (Non Intel) along with prior Photoshop versions. Now I have new iMac and trying to install CS6 but it won't accept my original serial number (Starts with PSW401, etc.).
I know what you are saying. I had purchased the CS5.5 upgrade, and a week later got the CS6 upgrade. I did this back in 2012. I had a old Mac Power PC which does not allow you to install CS5.5 or CS6 because it was not an intel processor. So even though I had the upgrades I never installed them. I waited until my old MAC died which it did this past weekend. And now that I have a new iMac I tried to install the new software. All of my past upgrades referenced my original Photoshop that was still resident on my old Mac. But since the install no longer has that reference because of the new computer, it will not accept any of my past serial numbers that it needs for the install.

Hello, I have a 2009 iMac, and my harddrive has failed several times now.
I tired to reinstall snow leopard with the install DVD that came with my iMac. However the disc is damaged so I bought a new Snow Leopard but my iMac wont read the new disc, it just stays in the apple logo screen, I have tired safe boot, holding down the "C" key on startup and tried using disc utility but getting nowhere.
Please help. Thanks.Might be related, if your hard drive is a 1TB drive,it could be a Seagate drive.
The drives are known to fail and your iMac maybe covered for free replacement under the Apple's Seagate hard drive replacement program until April 12 of this year.
I Believe the 2009 models are covered under this replacement warranty.
You can find out if you are eligible here.

I want open a small hotspot I have three iMac and two iPad 2 but I would like to control everything from one iPad like time and what they are watching o copies too. What can I do? Please help me guys
Home Sharing is designed to work on your local network not across the internet/cloud.
Stuff is accessed under the Computers column where your local iTunes library on a local computer would appear.
Home Sharing would share your iTunes content (i.e. stuff stored in itunes on the computer, not in the cloud) with AppleTV or an iPad etc on the SAME network.
AppleTV2 will not be able to see itunes content on the work computer over the internet. It's not designed to. if the work computer was on the home network it would.
iCloud is in it's infancy and is not a mature product - iTunes TV Show purchases appear on AppleTV, but currently music does not unless you are subscribed to iTunes Match. I find this rather odd to be honest, along with the inability to buy music on AppleTV2. Movies purchased in iTunes are not authorised for iCloud viewing currently either.
Maybe it has something to do with iTunes Match 'getting in the way' - i think they assume you'll use that whereas you really want to be able to access Purchased music from the cloud without subscribing to itunes Match which is overkill for some.

I am extending my airport extreme by adding an airport express. I had no problem setting it up and got green lights but now I cannot get on either because it says it is a self assigned IP?
i am extending my airport extreme by adding an airport express.
Does this mean that you are connecting the AirPort Express to the AirPort Extreme using a wired Ethernet connection....or....are you connecting the AirPort Express to the AirPort Extreme wirelessly?
but now I cannot get on either because it is a self assigned IP?
I suggest that you first concentrate on getting the AirPort Extreme working correctly. Power off the modem and both the Extreme and Express, wait a few minutes, then power up the modem and let it run a few minutes. Then, power up the AirPort Extreme and check the network for proper operation. Leave the AirPort Express off for now. Report on your results.
