How do I install iphoto for my mac with my start up discs for my mac?

I have an mac OSx which was bought in may 2005. Mac gave any new mac users the iphoto program into the mac installed discs. ( I have 2 I dont know which one its on)
My iphoto needs to be reinstalled as its not importing photos anymore. I need to instructed know how to use my disc to get iphoto in my computer. I dont want to reinstall my whole mac system. I just want iphoto put on.

Start by getting Pacifist (versiontracker.com). Launch it. Then. in the Restore disk, go to System/Packages (something like that), and try to find the package you think is the right one. It will be obvious. Drag it onto the Pacifist window. Search for iphoto, and install.
Before you do that, search for "com.apple.iPhoto.plist" and delete it. relaunch iPhoto. If that doesn't work, hold down opt+cnd, and launch iP. Rebuild it's database.

  • How much traffic/cpu load must i expect with my 1TB imac disc for 1TB TC

    hi
    i want to buy 1TB TCapsule.
    my concern is:
    i have round 600MB occupied on my internal imac 24" 2,8 disc
    and i work with huge image data day per day (200-800MB changing per day)
    must i expect very high cpu load when backup/timemachine is running in background
    constantly? is it advisable to buy this 1TB TC for my backup-timemachine-purpose?
    i presume that the first initial backup would take very long via air? (550MB backup to TC)
    maybe 1 week or so? or i could simply do this first backup via ethernet cable?
    thanks!!

    Did you mean 600 GB rather than 600 MB ?

    CPU load will not be that noticeable IMO. With daily churn rate of 200-800 MB you will be just fine. After 48 hrs TM will reconcile the hourly snapshots when creating its daily snapshot and only keep last revision of file(s). The 1 TB TC should work well for meeting your requirement(s).

    First TM backup/snapshot will always take a fair amount of time no matter. Again, you specified 550 MB which is a SMALL amount of data. If you meant 550 TB then that's a LOT of data and will take some time to backup up. Using say 7 MB/sec for WiFi then you can transfer 420 MB per min and thus in a perfect world the 550 GB will take 1310 minutes or some 22 hours. Using ethernet should reduce this transfer time considerable and will ultimately depend on the sustained TC's disk i/o rate.

  • New mac with full start up disc

    My imac a few weeks old keeps telling me that my start up disc is full, what is the issue?

    franciswp,
    Not sure why this is occuring but I'd recommend calling AppleCare in the morning. You have 90 days of free  phone support and I'm sure they can help you de-bug the problem. BTW you can purchase AppleCare if you want to extend the warranty to 3 years, this will include the phone coverage too. I'd highly recommend doing so. They're open M-Saturday during business hours.

  • How can I install iPhoto on a 10.6.8 Macbook?

    Hello all-
    I had a quick question regarding the newest version of iPhoto '11.  Quite a while ago, I had to replace the hard drive of my (very old) Macbook Pro, and during this process I installed 10.6.8 on the new SSD.  Everything works perfectly, but I did lose my iLife install when the process was finished (I used the upgrade version of 10.6.8 as opposed to the full version, forgetting that the new drive wouldn't have my previous 10.4 install on it).
    Anyway, I'm looking to buy iPhoto '11, but the requirements on the App Store claim that it can only be used with 10.7.4 or later.  I can't find an older version of iPhoto that I can buy, so my question is-
    Can I use iPhoto '11 with a 10.6.8 Mac?  Has anyone successfully installed (not upgraded) iPhoto '11 on a 10.6.8 Mac?  If it won't work, how do I find/buy an older version of iPhoto which will work with my computer?
    Thanks for your help!

    I contacted App Store support, but it doesn't look like they'll be able to help me- apparently you can't buy the CD version.  I did find this on Amazon, however- I believe it's what you're talking about. 
    However, I'm not sure if this version will even run on my Mac- any idea on whether it'll work or not?
    Additionally, I found my old 10.4 discs that came with the computer when it was new- I'll try to get iPhoto installed off the bundled software installer and see if I can upgrade it from there.

  • I upgraded to snow leopard but iphoto was not included. How do I install iphoto on snow leopard 10.6.8?

    i upgraded to snow leopard but iphoto was not included. How do I install iphoto on snow leopard 10.6.8?

    IPhoto is not included in any OS upgrade. It is a seperate application. Unless you choose to erase your drive when you upgrade no application including iPhoto is affected by the upgrade (except potential compatibility issues). If you need to reinstall iPhoto for and reason you do it from the original source. Either
    1- the restore disks that came with your computer
    Or
    2- the iLife DVD upgrade that you purchased
    Or
    3- the App store

  • How do I use my late 2011 iMac ( with thunderbolt) as external monitor for laptop/Xbox or other device with hdmi as output.

    May be this question has been asked thousand times. how do I use my mid 2011 iMac ( with thunderbolt) as external monitor for laptop/Xbox or other device with hdmi as output. if apple hasn't removed that feature and has just moved that functinoality to thunderbolt then how can I use it. currently there is no laptop available with thunderbolt output. no 3rd party converter available. whats the use of having feature on latest functionality if we cant use it. I wish they would have made one port has mini-dvi and other thunderbolt for backward compatibility untill some vendor comes up with converter.

    It Says :
    Mac (21.5-inch, Mid 2011) and iMac (27-inch, Mid 2011) and later computers support Target Display Mode via Thunderbolt to Thunderbolt cable (2 m) when the source is another Thunderbolt-equipped computer.
    Name one computer model/vendor which has thunderbolt as output for display + audio. this is so stupid to move to new technology without availbility of its compatible devices.
