I cannot open iPhoto in Mac book Pro

"You can't open the application iPhoto because the Classic environment is no longer supported."
OS X 10.7.5
tried to open got the spinning cursor and then the icon got one of those international 'do not' cicles with the line through it.

First off Mac Pros and MacBook Pros are different machines (the former is a desktop, the latter a notebook), but that matters not for your question.   I'll request this thread get moved.  Secondly, iPhoto has a newer release which came with your MacBook Pro out of the factory.
Is your machine older than July 20, 2011?    If not, you'll probably have to restore the factory software after making a clone backup or buy iLife or iPhoto from the Mac App Store.    If it is older than July 20, 2011, there is an original installer disc that came with your computer, you should call AppleCare for, if you lost that includes a newer version of iPhoto than the Classic only compatible version as part of its restore application.   Classic is not compatible with any Mac newer than January 1, 2006.

On my new machine I get a message saying "You can't open Photoshop CS2 because Power PC applications are no longer supported". I don't have a Power PC on either machine and this App does run on the older machine with an Intel processor. benrusy

    This is not new.  The fact that Mac OS no longer supports PowerPC applications starting with OS X Lion has been known for over a year now.  You'll need to upgrade to the latest version of Photoshop

  • I cannot open Iphoto on my macbook pro

    I cannot open Iphoto on my macbook pro what do I do?

    That's a bit like saying my car is broken, what do I do?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • How to transfer photos from iphoto 09 on iMac to iphoto on Mac Book Pro

    This is my first posting as I have tried unsuccessfully to find an answer to my query in the many answers to questions already posed.
    I have an iMac and recently my girlfriend bought a Mac Book Pro. Whilst I have managed to transfer my music library to her Mac Book Pro using the new sharing facility in the latest version of iTunes, I have been unable to transfer the photos which I have on my Mac in iphoto 09.
    Any help, advice or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks in anticipation of your assistance.
    Best regards
    EDIT: Just realised that I have posted this in iPhoto 08 instead of iPhoto 09 - I hope someone can still help!

    Many thanks for your reply Terence
    I understand what you mean, but would you be so kind as to explain how I should connect the machines. At first, I thought that some form of double ended USB may do it, but when I spoke to someone at work, they suggested a cross over ethernet cable.
    Your advice would be appreciated.
    Thank you once again

  • How to re-install iphoto in mac book pro

    I have mac book pro, I used to have iphoto installed and today I can't use this application. I tried to reinstall it but not able to do that as it won't let me update new os. Currently I have 10.6.8 and tried to update to os 10.7.4 to reinstall iphoto .But unable update os 10.7.4 or any latest os.. Please advise me to get iphoto.
    Regards
    12tsuki

    iPhoto does NOT come with the OS. It is a separate App. Yes it is included on every Mac when new.
    Since you are running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 you got 2 DVDs witrh your system. One is for installing the operating system, OS X, and the other is for reinstalling the iLife Apps that come with every Mac.
    So find your original system discs and the Applications disc in particular. Delete, "Move To Trash", the current iPhoto app then reinstall from that Applications disc. Then use Software update to update it to the most current version.

  • HT204264 iCloud library beta on iOS  and iPhoto on Mac Book Pro

    I turned on iCloud library beta on my new Ipad Air 2 and my iPhone 5. Photo stream disappears as well as camera roll. All photos in the cloud are now in ALL PHOTOS on the Album page of the the iOS devices. I chose to keep the originals on my devices rather then optimizing space. I am not that trusting especially in beta form.
    When photo stream was enabled, all new photos would be pushed to a monthly photo stream album in iPhoto on my mac book pro. Now what happens? How do  the new photos taken get to iPhoto on my mac book pro?

    Restart the Mac again.
    Next time:
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .
    Regards

  • Cannot sync exchange on Mac Book Pro yet on my itouch it works fine

    I have sucessfully set up active sync on my itouch and down load, read and send emails when connected to a network. Bought a Mac Book Pro at the weekend and have failed to get mail to sync. exchange server is set to auto discover, has service pack 1 roll up 4. It comes back saying make sure the exchange server is set to auto service pack 1 roll up 4. Using connection doctor just gets a red dot and failed to connect. Doubt anyone can answer the problem but any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
    It's just how come the itouch works and the Mac Book Pro does not? There is only one difference in terms of information input the Mac does not ask for a domain name.

    Did autodiscover automatically populate your server info? The mail.app settings are different than the activesync settings on the itouch.
    I happen to have the same setup and I could only connect with autodiscover setting things up. Before trying autodiscover, I manually changed the settings to match a co-workers settings but it didn't work.

  • Cannot access my CDROM: Mac book pro 8,1 - Intel Core i5 – 2.23 GHz (early 2011)

    Aloha & Happy New Year,
    Was running (triple booted with rEFIT) MAC OSX, win7 (64) and Linux (BT5/64) all was well. At some point Win7 crashed, thus I began the reinstall process.
    Problem one, reinstalled OSX with install CD without issue.  Then during the Q&A segment of fresh install vs.- use a backup copy option; I chose backup copy and somehow I ended up without the correct login pw. So now I cannot login. Nor can I reset using the Master or Firmware pw.  I have tried every imaginable pw.
    Problem two, during the iphone /iOS 5 upgrade debacle (The "Encrypt iphone backup "PW issue") I lost amongst other vital info, my notes which contained a copy of my firmware and master pw.
    The main issue, I cannot access or utilize my CDROM in order to reinstall or access the disk utility. It simply bypasses any CDROM straight to the login screen.
    I have attempted:
    Restart HOLD-C, PRAM, NVRAM, Option key, restarting with WIN7, restarting with Linux, two different USB drives. Powered off, removed all cables. Opened up back panel, (grounded myself) removed power from logic board and re-connected all parts after several minutes.  The question, why is the CD bypassed each and every time? Mind you, this is not the first time I have faced the bypass of the CDROM, yet each time before I have somehow solved the issue. It is a mystery. As in other threads I have posted I do have an iMAC next to my MB Pro. I unseccusfully attempted to use the iMAC for assistance in accessing the mb pro. 
    I AM AT A LOSS.

    Yes, you royally hosed up your machine.
    You should first try to get your files off, any way you can to a external drive.
    Your going to need to hold c and boot from the disk that came with your computer and a couple of screens in under the menu is a option for Disk Utility.
    Select your drive and Erase with Security Option Zero, format the drive HFS+ Journaled and when that's finished (about a hour or so) then quit and install OS X from the installer.
    I hope this works, but I suspect it won't. Others have hosed their machines trying to use a Linux disk without proper partition formatting too.
    Another option might be to use another Mac to c boot off the Snow Leopard disk and install OS X onto a external drive, take that to the problem Mac and try holding option and booting off of it to erase your internal drive.
    You could replace the drive.

     The Option key brings me to the grey screen with a padlock.
    Is this holding option while booting?
    There was someone else around here who hosed their Mac with a Linux disk too. Try to find it.

  • I did not find iPhoto in mac book pro

    i bought a mac pro and i did not find the backages of iphoto and imovie

    It would be helpful if you indicated the exact MBP you have.
    If it is a new MBP it should be included.  Check the App store account and download them.  If there is a problem, give Apple support a call.  (all new MBPs come with free 90 day telephone support)
    Ciao.

  • Downloaded Yosemite and now can't open photoshop on Mac Book Pro?

    I have downloaded Yosemite on MacBook Pro and now can't open photoshop.
    I have updated Java but still no help.
    Anyone know anything about this please?

    If you updated the OS after Photoshop 5.x was installed, the nefarious Yosemite disjointed beast damaged your Photoshop installation.  Thank Apple for that.
    You need to UNinstall Photoshop again, look for, download and run the Adobe CS Cleaner Tool, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, install Photoshop from scratch again, apply any and all available Photoshop updates, and ONCE AGAIN Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility—in that precise order.
