How can I get Iphoto back working?

updates messed up my iphoto. I guess that is what happened as I didn't do anything to cause it. It happened right after I did an update around the middle of May this year. It just keeps crashing. I think I have iphoto 08 and version 8.1.2. I have tried reinstalling the bundle package on disc that came with the imac but still crashes. What is the solution? I have read many forums and browsed the internet trying to find some kind of solution. I have even thought of buying the Ilife disc on Ebay for that version. Please I have spent way to much time. I brought this imac in 2009 I don't have an ilife disc just the bundle package disc that came with the imac. It didn't seem to work when I reinstalled it. Please advise. This imac is my first one. These are harder to troubleshoot then the PCs. Thanks for any help you can give.

My iphone froze when backing it up, how can I get it back working

My iphone froze while backing it up, how can I get it back working?

Do a soft reset.
Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until Apple logo appears.
You should then see this screen:
You will then be able to restore from a backup

How can i get iPhoto back?? I accidentally deleted it!! :(

Photos *****. How can I get iPhoto back

Photos lacks many of the features of iPhoto that I used all the time. How can I get it back?

It didn't go away. Look in your Applications folder.
If you didn't update it to the Yosemite version, see this tip: Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS X 10.10.3

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 can i get iPhoto back if it was a standard app on purchase?

as i didnt purchase the app from the app store i cant reinstall without another purchase.
surly my ID should have an update somewhere where it can varify i used iphoto?
Please Help
Thanks

iLife apps come with your system. If your Mac shipped with any system prior to Lion, it should be on your install disks that shipped with your Mac.
You can use Pacifist to extract and install just that app.
If you lost the disks, that shipped with your Mac call Apple for replacement, give them your serial number and they will send them for a nominal fee.

I delete iphoto incident . how can i get iPhoto back?

i want iphoto back
how can i get this ?

How did you delete it? (not a silly question)
If all you've done is removed the icon from the Dock, go to the Applications folder, find iPhoto and drag it's icon to the Dock, being careful not to release the mouse until the other icons in there move out of the way for it. (if you release too early, you'll leave the application on the Desktop and will have to drag it back to Applications and try again.)
The icons in the Dock are only aliases, so can be replaced easily.
If on the other hand you've somehow deleted it from the Applications folder, there are two possibilities -
If the trash hasn't been emptied, open it, right click on the iPhoto item and select 'Put Back'.
If the trash has been emptied, you'll need to reinstall it from the software restore disc (disc 2 of the grey discs that came with the Mac), or from the iLife DVD if that's where you installed it from, or if on Lion, I believe you'll need to go the App Store and re-download it (but someone may correct me on that).

How can I get iPhoto back?

I accidentally deleted iPhoto from my computer a while back (and it's been emptied from my trash since then). I don't have the disks that came with my computer because I lost my mac box while moving. I also don't have it backed up on time machine. Does anyone know how I could reinstall iPhoto? I really need it.
Thank you!

Depending on which version of iPhoto, as part of iLife, your
now missing version was, you may be able to buy an iLife
vintage suitable for use in Leopard 10.5.8 & it should work.
+{But the better deal may be to see what a replacement set+
+of original discs from Apple Sales/AppleCare will cost; if+
+they still are available, direct from Apple.}+
The retail meal deal, on its own install disc. And you may
not have to install All of iLife in order to use the iPhoto;
if there isn't a custom install mode to choose single iApps
(an option in a few cases, where you can choose One item)
you still could get only the iPhoto package to install from a
install disc through use of Pacifist utility, a download that
should work in demo mode for free; to extract just the one
item from the install disc & from the Mac's desktop install it.
(And before you try to start iPhoto the first time, be sure to
run Software Update first and get it updated to the last
version available for it; then it may actually work OK in your
computer. Even if it wasn't the exact version as shipped.)
Somewhere in not too old of Discussion posts, there was
a question asking what version of iLife was best for use
with OS X 10.5 Leopard; if one of the retail versions of
iLife has an iPhoto suitable for your existing OS and files
you may have saved, a retail iLife installer should do.
• iLife: System Requirements (versions: '04, '05, '06, '08, '09)
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27615
There are hardware and other limits as to which iLife would
work in different Macintosh computer configurations over time.
Since your computer specs don't tell me what it really is, I
can't help narrow the field as to which of the newest versions
in the above linked support article may mirror what you had.
Hopefully if you do call AppleCare support/sales to buy a
replacement restore-install DVD for your computer and
supply them with the machine's serial number, you can
get the exact item that has gone missing; and it may be
at a cost lower than someone reselling an old iLife '08/'09.
And you still could use Pacifist to install just iPhoto, if that
iLife installer disc does not allow you to choose one app.
• Pacifist - Charlessoft: shareware app (read page info)
http://www.charlessoft.com/
Hopefully that comes together for you, in any case.
Good luck & happy computing!

How can I get iPhoto to work with Lion? It comes up with an error about not working with this version of MAC os.omes up with an error

Iphoto was working fine until I downloaded and installed LION. Now I get a problem message to check that iphoto is compatible with this version of MAC OS X.
I always download software updates.

Have put iphoto into trash and tried to re-install it from cd, but although it is there on the list when I try to install, it is not in bold and does not permit me to tick it.
I have been to the app store and it tells me that iphoto is on my computer.

How can i get iphoto back n the dock?

my iphoto and address book icons disappeared from the dock!i can't find iphoto in finder either!what can i do now?

Open the Applications folder, find them one at a time & drag them to the Dock, likely/hopefully you just dragged the aliases up off the Dock.

How can i get iPhoto to work? It locks up after I launch it every time single time.t

iPhoto has gone nuts!! it will not work and keeps locking up. Open the program and within a few seconds i get the spinning wheel of death. i have tried the basic fixes, the ones you get with you hold down command and options at launch, like rebuild library ect.
What can i do?? I have several thousand photos here and i do have a time machine backup.

Correct, the plists don't work in Mavericks the way they used to. Good news is, we've isolated it to that specific library. You said you already went through the rebuilds, lets try to do them again, but one at a time in a specific order.
1) Repair Permissions
2) Repair Database
3) Rebuild Database
If that still doesn't work, try running these steps from TS4040:
1) Run Software Update and install all updates (including the OS X Lion v10.7.4 Update, or later) until it reports "Your Software is Up To Date."
2) Open the Get Info inspector for the account's Home folder:
In Finder, select Go > Home or press Shift Command H (⇧⌘H).
In Finder, select File > Get Info or press Command I (⌘I).
3) If needed, click the disclosure triangle to expand the "Sharing & Permissions:" section of the Get Info window.
4) If needed, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the Get Info window.
When prompted, enter an admin user name and password, then click OK.
5) From the Action menu (the cogwheel) at the bottom of the Get Info window, choose "Apply to enclosed items…"
6) Click OK in the confirmation sheet.
7) Wait for the process to complete.
If we're not able to access the library afterwards, I have a solution that should work, but would remove any albums, books, etc... etc... etc... that you had created in iPhoto and leave you with just your photos and events, so I'm trying to avoid that as much as possible. Let me know what happens.

How can I get iphoto to work again in my main admin account?

iphoto does not work in my main account. it works in other accounts but it just hangs when launched on my admin account. I have tried rebuild and deleted com.apple.iphoto.plist still no luck. it is iphoto 11
thanks

Do not import one iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - the correct thing is to drag a working iPhoto library to the pictures folder (default location) and launch iPhoto - it will open and convert the library as needed
Not sure what your comment about dragging an iPhoto library on means but if you dragged it onto the iPhoto icon or the iphoto window you are importing and will have to let it finish and then start over
As noted back please post back for more information

My bookmarks & browsing history has disappeared. Backward & forward arrows not working. How can I get this back working?

Message I'm receiving from Firefox is "The bookmarks and history system will not be functional because on of Firefox's files is in use by another application. Some security software can cause this problem." I have not made any changes on my computer. I did uninstall and reinstall Firefox but bookmarks and history system still not working. I am using the latest version of Firefox on Windows Vista.
Thanks

This indicates that there is a problem with the file that stores the bookmarks and history. Re-installing Firefox does not by default remove the profile folder where that file is stored.

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

I went swimming but forgot to take my iPhone out of my pocket, how can i get it back working?

hello everyone,
i went swimming today but i forgot to take my iPhone out of my pocket, it was only about a minute in the water, but still it can't be good. I haven't touched anything to avoid damage. The screen is withe on the upper edge, behind the camera glass you can also see water vapor. More than that i don't know. I don't think it still runs because i can't hear anything, but again i haven't touched a button or whatever.
greetings

1. Turn it off.
2. Your warranty is now void so don't take it to Apple.
3. You need to dry it out, put it in a tub of dry rice in a warm place, the raise will absorb the water.
4. Leave for a week before you try to turn it on.
