IPhoto 9.6.1 not in App Store?
I want to update my iPhoto to 9.6.1, but I'm unable to find iPhoto when I search the App Store.
Has anyone else encountered this?
Do you know if Apple will make iPhoto available in the App Store?
(I always update when the App Store notifies me, but I don't ever recall getting an iPhoto 9.6.1 update notification. I'm currently at 9.5.1.)
I know this is tagged as solved but just in case my experience helps others...
I am in the UK so this all relates to UK apple store. I upgraded my mac two days ago to Yosemite 10.10.3, Apr 15 2015. Beforehand, vaguely concerned about iPhoto, I checked that you could still use it in Yosemite by looking on my husband's newish mac book air that still showed it working - with hindsight, obviously should have looked into it in more detail, but thought it would go as smoothly as previous OS upgrades. Didn't spot that he had the latest iPhoto whereas I had 9.5.1.
So, then when I could no longer use the old version in Yosemite but could also not upgrade it through the App Store, I found this thread. Like tedster998 step 3, I went to the App Store "Purchased" tab and found the "Update" button, clicked it, it whirred for a second or two but seemed to do nothing. I then went to the App Store's "Store" tab and spotted the "Check for unfinished downloads..." option. I clicked it thinking maybe this would finish the update process - iPhoto starts downloading for 20 minutes. The button switches to saying "Installed". (I think I have done it!)
Now, here I am not sure what had actually happened - I think checking for unfinished downloads must have picked up an unfinished download of an old version because, after my Restart and search for iPhoto using Finder, it says it was modified today but still appears to be version 9.5.1 (as it had been throughout).
However, I then try the steps all over again. I move that version to Trash again, go back into Purchases, and now it presents iPhoto with a new "Install" button (which I hadn't got before even though I'm pretty certain I'd moved the old app to Trash that time too - curious). Click that again for another 20 min install, Restart mac and, hey presto, iPhoto.app is installed and shows 9.6.1. And it is back in my toolbar with its old tropical beach/camera icon.
Basically, my lesson from this is 'if at first you don't succeed, try again'!
Only a few hours work searching the internet and all these forums - now, wouldn't it have been easier, Apple, simply to have kept it available to upgrade in the store? Thanks everyone in the thread - would never have got there without you!

Iphoto 8.1.2 (NOT via App Store) - Yosemite upgrade
I am using IPhoto on Lion 10.7.5 for old photo libraries (and Aperture 3.4.4) for newer ones.
I want to move to Yosemite. I plan to move Aperture off my laptop, upgrade to Yosemite, then get Aperture again from the App Store as it is listed as a purchase. BUT IPhoto is not listed as a purchase, I didn't buy it through App Store.
How can I upgrade iPhoto to the latest version or ensure I can buy the latest version somehow after or before moving to Yosemite?
Many thanks
BWand what version o iPhoto do you currently have installed? Probably 8.0.0 - you need to update to he version you had before you reinstalled - 8.1.2 - and then everything will be fine
If you want to upgrade to Mavericks go ahead ands purchase iPhoto '11 version 9.5.x in the App store - but there is not need to do that if you are happy with what you have - simply update iPhoto to 8.1.2

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.

my computer is running iphoto 9.4 something but the app store says 9.5.1 is insstalled an won't let me try to update it??
while it is possible to keep two different copies of iPhto around it is a really bad idea
the iPhoto application MUST be in the applications folder on your main boot drive - if it is anywhere else it will not update - if you have multiple copies of the iPhoto Application you must delete all except the one in your applicaitions folder on your boot drive
You need to get rid of all iPhoto applications except the one in your Applicatiosn folder on the boot drive (third time for this suggestion) and update it to the latest then update all iPhoto libraries to work with it

EasyFind – Spotlight Replacement
Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Can not open app store in iPad 3
why I can not open app store in iPad 3
IF you get app update notifications, are you able to use the App Store from the Updates Tab? Try closing the App Store and reset your iPad. You will not lose any data.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -
i accidentally deleted some drivers from my macbook air and now i can not access app store and system preferences as it says the following message (You can't open the application System Preferences because it may be damaged or incomplete)
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu. -

I have had my MacBook for 5 years and ever since upgrading to the new system which added the App Store to my computer, I have been curious about the difference between the iPhoto that came pre-downloaded when I purchased my computer 5 years ago and the iPhoto available for purchase on the App Store. What makes the iPhoto from the App Store so different that I have to pay $15 for it, when I already have it for free on my computer?
Lots and lots of new features - and since you have upgraded to Mavericks much better operation
For information on what has changed there are many. many reviews on the web as well os a writup on the App store recapping the new features of the latest version vs the previous version
as to your choice - totally personal - do or don't - you choose - it does no involve anyone here in any way

Can not open app store on macbook pro/imac after installing Mavericks
I have just installed Mavericks on both a Macbook Pro and an iMac. I use the same Appleid on both.
But now I can not open App Store
I have tried clicking on the App Store symbol in the dock, starting it from the program folder in a Finder window, and starting it from the Apple menu. The result is the same: Nothing happens except that the menubar that was active before the attempt becomes inactive (dark). There is no App Store Window, and no App Store menubar.
I have one idea why this happens. I removed the "OS X Mavericks" from the list of downloads/purchases in App Store by misstake before I installed Mavericks. If that is the problem how can I solve it?Ok, now it works again. I got a Notice that I could update some applications and I answered that I wanted to do that. Then, when I tried to start App Store the menubar showed up but no window. I choosed "Windows - Minimize", exited App Stored and started it again. And now it works - on both computers!
