HT5037 Upgrading Iphoto to Maverick

I upgraded my IPhoto on Maverick per Apple'sinstructions.  Now I can't see any of my photos.  Only a dotted outline with the name.  HELP!  HOW DO I GET THEM BACK.

Try the following:
Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button,                         
and select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2:  Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • Can't upgrade iPhoto with Mavericks

    I upgraded to OS Maverick, now iPhoto doesn't work. I tried to download the iPhoto Update but it tells me "this is not available for this Apple ID  because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled. I went to the purchases- nothing there about iPhoto and nothing hidden, I reset alerts. Still no work. I went to associate my User (again) in the Apple preferences.. still not work. I don't know what to try next. I am on Day 2 of trying to upgrade my MacBook

    Please test after each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes. Keep in mind that no one here represents Apple or can help with customer-service issues.
    Step 1
    A purchased app can only be updated by signing in to the App Store with the same Apple ID that was originally used to buy it. There's no way around that limitation, which also applies to free apps. If you can't sign in with the buyer's ID, delete the app and reinstall it. You'll have to pay for it again, if applicable.
    Step 2
    If you get the alert when trying to update a bundled iLife app, select the Purchases page in the App Store and locate the app in your purchase history. If there's a button marked ACCEPT on the right, click it.
    If you have a used Mac, the bundled apps were linked to the original owner's Apple ID and can't be transferred to you. Reportedly, customer service has issued redemption codes to some second owners who asked, but it's not guaranteed.
    Step 3
    If you're trying to update iLife or iWork apps that were installed from a purchased DVD, or if you have a refurbished Mac bought directly from Apple, contact App Store customer service for a redemption code. You may be asked for the part number of the DVD.
    Step 4
    From the App Store menu bar, select
              Store ▹ View My Account
    Enter your Apple ID password at the prompt. At the lower right corner of the window that opens, click the Reset button. Close the window.

  • Iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i access these files?

    iphoto and itunes files disappeared when i upgraded to os mavericks. How can i retrieve these files? Time machine is not opening my backup files on an external Lacie HD.

    Apple keeps books for a short time (used to be 40 days. I've not seen a recent time frame)
    What version did you have?
    Books do nor exist except in the iPhoto database so you can not "find" a book vista TM. You restore a previous library (be sure NOT to overwrite your current library) and switch to it

  • My HD died and the Apple store installed the new drive and upgraded me to Mavericks.  I no longer have iPhoto which I miss very much.  How do I get it back and do I need it or do my pics go somewhere else? help

    My Hard Drive died and when the Apple store installed the new drive they upgraded me to Mavericks.  I no longer had iPhoto.  Where do I get iPhoto, do I need it and where are my pictures going when they import???  Help I'm SO confused and frustrated.  Thank you. 

    You need two items
    1 - the iPhoto application -
    You install it from the App Store
    2 - and the iPhoto library - restore form your backup from just before the disk died - no importing involved - simply restore and launch iPhoto and it will look in the pictures folder and open it and it will be exactly the way it was when you made the backup
    As to your question Do you need it - No you can manage your photos anyway you please - iPhoto is a good way but not required - you can use any software you want and you can import photos using image Capture (in your applications folder)  or any other software you choose - If you use iPhoto then they by default going your iPhoto library - if you use other software then they go where you say to put them

  • Photos Missing from iPhoto with Maverick Upgrade

    I have recently upgraded to the Maverick OS and noticed that all my photos are now missing from iPhoto however I can see them under Preview when I use the Finder application. Also, when I open iPhoto it prompts me to enter personalized settings as if I am using it for the first time (ie: Face recognition, etc.) How can I get my photos back into iPhoto? I am worried I may lose them.

    Have you upgraded iPhoto after your Mavericks upgrade?
    Be aware after updating iPhoto save your iPhoto Library before you open it in the new version of iPhoto Library. If you don't and you have other Macs running eariler versions of iPhoto, they won't be able to open the Library.

  • Can't upgrade iPhoto after update os to mavericks

    After update os mountion lion to mavericks I can't open iPhoto also its not in lunchpad and applications
    when I try to upgrade iPhoto give this error :
    "These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."
    "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    "There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (null)"

    Log in using the Apple ID that was used to purchase iPhoto (or used to set up the computer if it came on the computer). Other than that contact App store support  the link is on the right od the App store window

  • I upgrade OS-X Mavericks and I lost my iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand and so on, is there a way to get it installed?

    I have a pre-installed  OS-X Mountain Lion Mac book air(2012). I upgrade OS-X Mavericks.
    After the upgrade i lost my iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand and so on ....
    I checked my purchased from app store. But i can not see anything.
    When I want to install from app store, it wants me to pay for them.
    By the way I have no any backup for OS-X Mountain Lion.
    How can I have these aplication on to OS-X Mavericks without paying?
    Also, can I return back to OS-X Mountain Lion and How?

    You should be able to install your iLife applications from the App Store. This Apple Knowledge Base article has the directions.
    OS X Lion: About Lion Recovery
    Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X Lion  If you reinstall Lion on a new Mac that shipped with OS X Lion installed, on an erased or replaced hard drive, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.After installation, start from Lion.
    Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
    Enter your Apple ID and password.
    Click Purchases.
    If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
    You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your Lion based computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to compete installation of your applications.

  • Not sure order: upgrade iPhoto and OS Mavericks?

    So, I'm trying to figure out this order b/c I'm going in circles.  I know I need to upgrade iPhoto from iphoto 11 9.3 to 9.5 before the library will work in Mavericks.  BUT when I go to upgrade iPhoto, it says I have to have OS 9 or higher.  I'm still on OS X 10.7.5 Lion - have option to update directly to Mavericks BUT I thought then mess up the iPhoto library?
    Can you please help me get from here to there? 
    My Time Machine is updated to the minute, so I'm backed up.  Is that sufficient or would you recommend something else? 
    Thanks!

    Backup - upgrade your OS to Mavericks  10.9.x and then upgrade iPhoto to version 9.5.x  (you can not upgrade iPhoto to 9.5.1 until after you upgrade the OS to Mavericks)

  • Just upgrade to Os Maverick, IPhoto app is no longer available, now I can not open my iPhoto Library. Any solutions suggestions?

    Just up graded my iMac to OS X Maverick after saving all file on external drive.
    HELP: Can not open my iPHOTO Library file because previous iPhoto application
                 is no longer available.
                What to do? If I need new application, which is the best ?

    Have you upgraded iPhoto to the current version (9.5.1)?
    Have you failed to allow your previous iPhoto library to be upgraded?
    Have you tried holding the "option" key while opening iPhoto to point to your iPhoto library?

  • After upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose?

    after upgrading to os maverick iPhoto wants to upgrade it says..Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. What exactly will I lose, what will not be readable?

    In the current version of iPhoto, nothing.
    In previous versions of iPhoto, the ability to access any part of it.
    Back it up before doing this.

  • IPhoto quits after upgrade to OSX Mavericks

    I have a macbook pro & I have recently upgraded to OSX Mavericks & installed all the latest updates.
    My problem is with iPhoto unexpectantly quitting after selecting slideshow to view an album. I set the transitions ,music etc then click play, then it quits.
    I have created a slideshow then again selected transitions, music etc, clicked play & iPhoto quits again.
    Perhaps there is something I am missing in the new upgrade, just can't see what.
    Can anyone help please.
    Regards Robyn

    As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
    If the problem goes away in the new library you'll need to fix your current library.
    Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Upgrade iPhoto '09 to '11 on mavericks

    My English language very poor, but I will try to tell you what is my problem
    I have OS X Mavericks (10.9.5) and I want upgrade iPhoto ’09(v8.1.2) to iPhoto ’11, but the iPhoto version in the app store (iPhoto 9.6) is woking just with OS X Yosemite (10.10)
    how can I find iPhoto version older than 9.6?

    Buy an iLife '11 DVD. There should still be copies available at Amazon or Ebay.. It will contain an early iPhoto '11 version 9.x.x.  You can update that version from Apple's Support page.
    But if you can, consider upgrading to Yosemite. Then you can upgrade to iPhoto 9.6 from the App Store.
