How can I reinstall iPhoto?  It's crashing after a fresh install of Leopard

I ran software update and did the 10.5.1 update. The disk utility finds no problems. Created a new account and iPhoto crashes there before it finishes launching. Everything else seems to be working. Is there anyway to just reinstall iPhoto from the Leopard DVD without redoing the whole install... that takes a very long time.

Lynn:
First try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try launching iPhoto again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    How can I reinstall iphoto for OSX 10.5.8 I had to delete the application, and I can't find how to reinstall

    If your computer came with iLife pre-installed, then you will find iPhoto on one of your original installer discs.
    If you purchased iLife then you can restore it from the iLife DVD you received.

  • How can I reinstall Iphoto if the installation is aborted?

    I just bought Iphoto 9.2.1 from Apple store and I installed it on my Mac  OS X 10.6.8. When I launch Iphoto I receive the following error message:
    Dyld Error Message:
      Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/NyxAudioAnalysis.framework/Versions/A/NyxAudioAnalysis
      Referenced from: /Applications/iPhoto.app/Contents/Frameworks/iLifeSlideshow.framework/Versions/ A/Frameworks/iLifeSlideshowProducer.framework/Versions/A/iLifeSlideshowProducer
      Reason: image not found
    It's possible that the electric power went down during the installation but I'm not sure that it happened during the installation.
    Can I download and reinstall in some way the application from Apple Store?
    Thank you

    Yes.
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • How can I reinstall deleted free Apps which now show as installed but are not actually there?

    How can I reinstall free Apps that I have deleted (because ALL stopped working) which now show as installed but are not actually there?
    I loaded a bunch of free Apps (maybe too many?) right after I got my 4s yesterday, and at some point I noticed that none of the downloaded Apps would work. The screen would blink when I tapped the icons, but the Apps stopped opening. Resetting the phone didn't help, so I decided to delete all the Apps I had downloaded and start over.
    I can get the "Purchased" list to show up by pressing Updates button (is there another way?) but the show as "installed" in greyed-out letter, so I can't figure out how to get them back.

    Your iPad screens aren't completely filled up are they? If they are, you will only be able to find them using the search feature on the iPad.

  • How can I add the audio content cd after logic finished installing ?

    There was an eror installing the Audio Content CD 1 and I did not notice. Everything else installed properly, Audio Content CD 2, Jam Pack, but how can I add the Audio Content CD1 after Logic has finished installing?
    If you can help me please be very specific as to how to do it so that I can follow the directions properly.
    Please help me.
    Thanks

    Hi
    You could re-run the installer, or, once you have updated to Logic 9.1.8 you could use the "Download Additional Content" function in the Logic Pro menu. It will tell you what is installed and what is incomplete.

  • How can I reinstall iphoto on new hard drive?

    Original purchase came with iphoto installed.  After hard drive crash new hard drive does not have iphoto app.  Anyone have any idea how to reinstall without having to purchase?  Had to install original OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard

    reinstall from the original source
    Could be
    1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced = probably your case
    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

  • ¿How can I reinstall iPhoto after having it accidentally removed?

    The thing is iPhoto came with my MBP when I first bought it, back then the osx was Lion. I was having trouble using my apple id to download stuff from the app store so my ex girlfriend (back then my girlfriend) used her id so that I could download free apps and stuff. that turned out to be a huge mistake because her id was instantly saved in my osx and all future apps and upgrades were made with her id. I upgraded to Mountain Lion as soon as it came out and iPhoto was working correctly until one day it no longer wanted to update, it kept me asking for my ex girlfriend's apple id password. It seems to me that the osx is still recognizing her apple id for some apps she downloaded to my computer, but why iPhoto? didn't it came with my MBP?
    So I thought that iPhoto was free in the app store, since it came with my MBP, and attempted to delete the app from my computer and redownload it with my apple id (which eventually I could make work for the app store) so that I no longer had to depend on my ex girlfriends id, when it came to the surprise that it was not free. So I no longer have iPhoto and I'm needing it really bad because I bought an iPhone now and can't transfer photos to my computer via photostream.
    I would really like to now:
    1. How to get back iPhoto and make it upgrade with my ID.
    2. How to eliminate all possible traces of my ex girlfriend's ID from my computer.
    Thank you before hand.

    Ok
    So you need the Apple ID it was registered to or you need to purchase it
    You can contact App store support using the link on the right of the App store page and see if they can help

  • How can I reinstall Adobe Premiere Elements 12 after computer crash without my old keys?

    I need to re-install Elements 12, but I can't find my product key.

    My World
    You should have two choices for obtaining working installation files....
    1. If you purchased the installation files from Adobe....go to the Adobe web site, sign in with your Adobe ID and Password, go to the Search field at the top right of that web page and type in My Orders. Then follow the My Orders to your orders and select the order involved. There should be a place there to download new installation files.
    2. You can go to the following web site and download and install Premiere Elements 12 tryout. During the installation of those files, you insert your purchased serial number to make this your working copy of the program.
    http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-12-direct-download-links-premiere.html
    The important matter with this route is read and carry out carefully the web site's "Note: Very Important Instructions" and the "here" button in the instructions so that you do not get Access Denied.
    Please let us know if any of the above works for you.
    Thanks.

  • Every restored apps from 2.* crash after a fresh install of 3.1

    Hi,
    I restored by iPod Touch 2g (16gb) with my newly purchased OS 3.1. I had previously synchronised my iPod that had 2.* firmware on it. I did not restored the profile, instead, I created a new one. It went well, I installed few apps and everything was fine. Then, I tried to sync my old applications, things started to go wrong.
    Every each of them installed, but I can launch them. It show the slpash screen then it return to the main menu. How can I fix that?
    *My OS 3.1 is not and will not be jailbroken, it is not the cause of the problem.
    **Every of those apps are legally purchased, I never used any kind of hacks on the Mac I use to sync my iPod
    *If I upgrade broken applications via the app store, they stay broken

  • How can I fix iphoto 08 so it will edit photos with Snow Leopard?

    Ever since I upgraded to SL, my iphoto 08 (ver 7.1.5) won't edit photos anymore. I just get the beach ball of death if I try to edit in full screen. I have sent two feedback msgs to Apple but have not received any sort of "fix." Where can I find this info? I have looked and read, and hoped....... HELP! Thanks so much!

    Bak to the main Library:
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places 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.

  • How Can I Reinstall Disk Utility?

    Hi,
    I been having problems opening Disk Utility to format an USB drive since december 2009, every time I tried it freezes like 1 minute an never opened. Then I supposed it was a problem with my hard disk maybe corrupted data.
    Today I tried to use the Disk Utility using Mac OS Install DVD, holding C key. After that, I put to verify my MacBook hard disk, and after that told me that I need to repair. So I've tried to repair, but Disk Utility could not do it, and it stops booting my hard drive.
    I needed to use a full restore of a Time Machine backup, but now I can't open the disk utility and give me the following message:
    - You can't open the application "Disk Utility.app"; because it is not supported on this architecture.
    *So how can I reinstall the Disk Utility from my Mac OS Install DVD?*
    Thanks,

    Use Pacifist to extract it from your Leopard DVD.
