How do I upgrade iPhoto?

I have OS 10.5.5. I thought iPhoto gets upgraded with it the OS but it turns out I have version 2.0.1 (don't laugh).
How do I upgrade it so I can use it? I tried downloading the current version but it won't let me install it. What do I do to get up to date?
Thank you.

Purchase iLife "08 - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB615Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA&mco=MTY2NDcxOQ
iPhoto upgrades do not come with OS pgrades - iLife does come with new computers

How do I upgrade iPhoto for Yosemite?

How do I upgrade iPhoto for Yosemite 10.10.3?

You ned to upgrade or update iPhoto 9.6.1 with Yosemite 10.10.3, and that update version is only available from the App Store.
It will depend on the iPhoto version you own, if you still can update to a Yosemite compatible version. If you have any version of iPhoto '11, and it is listed at the Appstore among your purchases, you can move the incompatible version to the Trash and reload the appStore Purchases page with ⌘R. Then try, to reinstall from that page.
If you own an older iPhoto version, you cannot update it, you need to buy iPhoto '11, bu apple is no longer selling it. And the retail versions on iLife installer CDs are not compatible with Yosemite.

How do I upgrade iphoto on older macbook?

How do I upgrade iphoto on older macbook?

Purchase the Snow Leopard disk from Apple here: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). Then update to 10.6.8 with this updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
With 10.6.8 you can run iPhoto 9.2.3 which is available via the iLife 11 disk from a 3rd party vendor like Amazon.com or eBay.com. You'll need to run the 9.1, 9.2 and then the 9.2.3 updaters which can be found here: Apple - Support - Downloads

You can check into iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ - for the possibility of downgrading your library -I've not personally tried that

HT4906 How do I upgrade iPhoto on a family computer, when App Store tells me it is already installed?

How can I install iPhoto 9 and use iCloud Photostreaming, when App Store says it is already installed? I have two Apple IDs (family computer) which may be the root of the confusion. The one I use for iTunes purchasing and use solely on my work iMac has already upgraded successfully.

install iPhoto 9 and use iCloud Photostreaming
To use Photo Stream and iCloud you will need iPhoto '11 ( version 9.3.x) not iPhoto '09. The version numbers are rather confusing.
when App Store says it is already installed?
Do you see it in the AppStore as installed, when you sign in with your AppleID, but you cannot update it?
Backup your computer and you iPhoto libraries.
Then delete iPhoto from the Applications folder, or from whereever it is installed; you do not need to empty the trash. This way you will be able to put iPhoto back.
Sign into the App Store with your apple ID and reinstall instead of update.
Does that work?
If not, put iPhoto back and try with the other AppleID.

How can I upgrade iPhoto from 8.1.2 but without upgrading OSX from 10.6.8?

I have an iMac ca. 2008 vintage which is currently running OSX 10.6.8. Due to various problems I had to do a restore and everything worked OK afterwards except iPhoto (v. 8.1.2.). When I try to launch it I get the error message "iPhoto cannot be opened because of a problem" - Error log below.
As I understand it I cannot reinstall the original version of IPhoto that came ready loaded on the iMac. On the App Store the only version of iPhoto available requires Yosemite and I don't want to upgrade to that.
Any advice?

Not sure why you "understand" that you can not reinstall the original version - you can 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
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
But the error looks like you may need to reinstall the OS as you are missing sme required system elements

How do i upgrade iphoto 6.x in mac os x 10.6.8?

hi there, i don't know if this is the right place to post this question... but i do
Before posting it in ilife section, i'd like to know if someone here has, or had, the same "problem".
This all originated from the upgrade i did on my ooooold macbook (2005/2006) to 10.6 one year ago (more or less).
Once i realized i had to upgrade ilife... it's too late because of system req.
Any hint appreciated, thanx
.rik

Thanx for replying
But since ilife components in the App Store have sys req too high for me (i.e. 10.7.5+), what would you suggest me to do?
Apple stores don't sell boxes anymore; Amazon.com doesn't sell software to Italy; ebay.... nope; what else?
just don't upgrade? mmmmhhhh, too easy!
aaah, according to you, why 'about garageband' says it is garageband '11?

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

You can upgrade to iPhoto '11 with OS X 10.8.5 by purchasing an iPhoto '11 DVD from Amazon, eBay or other source - or you can upgrade your OS to Mavericks for free if your system meets the requirements and then purchase the upgrade to iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x from the App store - in either case backup first in case of problems

How can i upgrade from iphoto 7.1.5 to 8.1.2 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8 ?

How can I upgrade from iphoto 7.1.5 to 8.1.2 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8 ?

With the above listed config that I have (iphoto 7.1.5 on an older iMac running OSX 10.6.8), how can I move my iPhoto library from this old iMac (2006) to my NEW iMac (2011) that is running iPhoto 9.5.1 ?
To open an iPhoto 7.1.x version in iPhoto '11 you need to run the iPhoto Library Upgrader. See this Support document:
iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrade
Download and install the upgrader, then run it on your iPhoto 7.1.5 library. After that, iPhoto will be able to open your library and upgrade it to version 9.5.1. And you will be able to merge the libraries with if Library Manager.

Before upgrading to OS X 10.9 Mavericks, you need to first purchase a retail install disc of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to install first.
If you are from Canada or France, you need to get this discs from an online Apple website in your country.
Here is the disc you need here in the U.S. Apple Store website.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After getting this disc and installing the initial version of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, you can use OS X Software Update feature to update to OS X 10.6.8 where that update gives you access to the Mac App Store and the free upgrade to OS X 10.9 Mavericks, if you choose.
Another thing you need to do is to upgrade the amount of system RAM in your Mac.
Currently, your Mac only has 2 GBs of RAM installed. This a bare minimum, paltry amount of RAM for running the newer versions of OS X.
Newer versions of OS X really need a real working, mimimum RAM amount of 4 GBs.
Your Mac model can take a total of 6 GBs of RAM.
I advise installing the complete total 6 GBs of RAM.
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
OWC ( macsales.com) has the 6 GB RAM module kit.
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/5300DDR2S6GP/
If you are not from the U.S., OWC (macsales.com), I believe, has international shipping of their products.

Again for Aperture questions it is best to ask in the Aperature forum. This has nothing to do with iPhoto. It only involves Aperature

How do i upgrade from 6.0.6 to the latest version of iPhoto . I have a mac pro with OS 10.7.5 ?

The latest version of iPhoto - 9.5.1 - requires MacOS X 10.9.x. Is it possible to upgrade your Mac to Mavericks? Then you can buy the latest iPhoto from the AppStore.
If your Mac does not support Mavericks, you could upgrade to iPhoto 9.4.3, see: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1650 , but this version is no longer availbale from the AppStore. Buy a boxed retail version of iPhoto '11 from Amazon or eBay, and then update it from the support page http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1650 .
