How to uninstall old iphoto and reinstall it in old Mac Pro (new iphoto not compatible)

I can't install the new iPhoto in my Mac Pro (2006-2007 model) but my old iPhoto is not working, won't open and I can't uninstall it and install it again.
Any ideas how to do it?
Thanks

You probably do not need to
99.9% of the time iPhoto problems are not related to the application but to the library
However we need details - not just "it doesn't work"
What version of ihoto? Of the OS? How does it not work? What exactly happens? what recently changed since it sorked?
If you do need to reinstall you reinstall from the original source

    Hello,
    I have installed mountain lion on my macbook pro ,but it made my mac very slow. Would someone please tell me how  to uninstall this one and reinstall snow leopard? I tried to do it by my original CDs but macbook  pro didn't let me to do it.
    Thanks

    It would be easier to just fix whatever is making your machine slow.
    I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.

  • Aperture and PS performance difference on Mac Pro - new Macbook Pro 2.53

    I am considering selling and replacing two computers with one new MBP 2.53 ghz 15 inch with 4gb RAM. The new MBP would be replacing a nearly three-year-old Mac Pro dual 2.66 with with 9gb RAM, a Nvidia 8800 GT graphics card (512 vram); and a Macbook Pro 2.3 ghz of about the same age. The replacement is due to space issues mainly (we are renovating the house and accommodating our new baby!) but also because I tend to dispose of my macs at about three years to before the resale value drops too much. My main concern is about what performance reduction (or even enhancement?) I will see compared to the Mac Pro tower in general and, more specifically, performance when it comes to running Aperture, CS4 and Lightroom. It would be good to here from anybody (especially photographers) who has made a similar switch. Also I have read that the new MBP is supposed to take 6gb Ram (through "not supported by Apple") any info on this would be good, too.
    Note that I have cross posted this to the Aperture forum.
    Cheers

    I cannot from personal experience describe what the performance change will be but my expectation is that properly set up with E/C34-eSATA external hard drives performance would probably equal or exceed the G5. The real unknown is the effect of 4 GB RAM instead of 9 GB RAM - - especially when we are on OS 10.6 Snow Leopard a few months from now.
    What I can comment on is buy the 17" MBP rather than the 15" MBP. My reasons:
    • More screen real estate, a very big deal when in the field and no external display is connected.
    • Much higher pixel count, a very big deal when in the field and no external display is connected.
    • Available matte display, a very big deal (to many pro photogs, including me) when in the field and no external display is connected. Note however that none of us have actually seen the new 17" MBP because it has not shipped yet.
    • Faster; the added size and easier heat dissipation of the 17" apparently allow Apple to make less engineering compromises.
    • Twice the available RAM, a very big deal moving forward as app vendors evolve apps to better utilize available cheap RAM, OS 10.6 and boxes with more RAM access. Under OS X Photoshop (and probably Aperture as well) can already take advantage of up to 32 GB installed RAM, maybe more.
    • Longer battery life is alleged, which matters not to me but some folks care.
    • After years of using 15" and smaller, starting with the Duo, I now use a 2.33 GHz 17" and far prefer the larger size.
    • All the above benefits and it only weighs 1.1 pound more than the 15" MBP.
    IMO graphics performance of the new 17" MBP with 8 GB RAM will easily exceed your G5. Unfortunately the cost of maximizing RAM in the new MBP is still exorbitant, but that price will fall.
    -Allen Wicks
    P.S. Adding RAM adds heat, which may be why Apple does not support more than 4 GB RAM in the 15" size.
    P.P.S. If you move to a laptop-only workflow use Referenced Masters, keep the Library on the internal drive and make sure the internal drive stays underfilled for speed of all apps.

    Hello Anthony:
    There is no "uninstall." If you have a backup (hopefully you do) made before you moved to OS X 10.6, restore that.
    If you do not, this article gives you the options:

    How do I uninstall creative cloud on my old laptop and  reinstall creative cloud on my new laptop?

    There is no need to uninstall on the old machine, but you can sign out thru the CC Manager if you like and then uninstall like you would any other software (depends on your operating system).
    To install on the new machine repeat what you did originally with the old machine...
    Download/install the desktop application, sign in, install the subscription application(s).

  • How do I import an iPhoto Library  (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

    How do I import an iPhoto Library  (V.7.1.5) created on my old MacBook (10. 6.8) into my new Macbook pro (10.9.1) running iPhoto 9.5.1? I tried copying onto memory stick and moving to new mac, but new iPhoto doesn't recognise the library.

    So what exactly did you copy over? If it's a 12 gig iPhoto Library then it sounds like the files are there. Perhaps the copy went wrong along the way.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    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 do I uninstall safari 7 and reinstall safari 6 (snow leopard)?

    How do I uninstall safari 7 and reinstall snow leopard? I was on pinterest and it said I needed up to update my browser, so I did and now safari won't open for me since I have 10.6.8. How can I get safari back on my computer? I didn't know that my computer isn't compatible with the new software before I downloaded it and I can't figure out how to uninstall it so I can have my previous version back. Thanks!

    Classic Mac operating systems don't run Safari.  I've asked this thread be moved to the appropriate forum.

  • How do I uninstall mountain lion and reinstall snow leopard

    If I had known that I would not be able to use my excel files I would not have purchased OSX Mountain Lion.  Is there a way to uninstall mountain lion and reinstall snow leopard?
    Thank you,

    To get more to the point the answer is the only way to go back to SnowLeopard is if you have a complete backup of your system from before the upgrade.
    If you do you would boot off your original SL DVD wipe the disk and install SL and then restore from your SL backups.
    Short of that here is no way to go back. But as the others have offered there are other less drastic means to deal with the problem.

  • I have uninstalled my CS5 licence from my old computer and reinstalled it on my new one, but it says I only have a trial? Why?

    I disabled my licence for CS5 on my old computer and reinstalled it on my new MacBook Pro. The software shows up and I can see the icons in my Applications Folder, but when I click in the Adobe Illustrator icon, for instance, up pops a box with "Creative Suite5.5 Design Standard Trial" and asks me for a serial number?
    Why is it a trial? I own a license for the full Suite?

    Perfect! It worked! Thank you!
