Iphoto does not start up

My program Iphoto does not start up anymore.
I don't know what to do anymore. Updated Iphoto, re-installed the program, nothing works. Please help me!

Did you trash the receipts before reinstalling?

  • After update 7.1.2 Iphoto does not start

    After installing the 7.1.2 update, Iphoto does not start anymore. only the Icon bounce in the dock a few times.
    Restoring the previous Iphoto.app in the applications folder resolves it and iphoto works O.K.
    when i install the 7.1.2 update it again does not start.
    Can someone help me with this??

    You should probably post in the iPhoto discussions:

  • IPhoto does not start to update after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite.

    iPhoto has been "paused" after my iMac was updated to OS X Yosemite. iPhoto does not start to update when I click "UPDATE" in App Store "Updates". The circle on the left top corner just keep circling. Do you know how to fix this problem? I cannot download my photos to iPhoto without updating it.

    Thank you LarryHN,
    I could not follow what you have explained to me as I struggled to find iPhoto 9.6. Anyway, while I was struggling, I managed to update iPhoto somehow. Finally, I can use iPhoto!
    Thank you very much for your quick response.

  • IPhoto does not start up with incompatible Prokit error

    i installed the new version of iphoto 9.3 ( as prompted by software updates). post installation, iphoto does not start up. it throws an error " incompatible prokit framework".

    I have Mac OS 10.8 too and it won't run the last versions of both iPhoto and Aperture. It does work with earlier versions (Aperture 3.2.2 and iPhoto 9.2.3).
    I suggest you to downgrade iPhoto rather than the OS as in less than one week Mac OS 10.8 will be released and hopefully you will be able to update it and to run the last version of iPhoto with it.
    By the way, I think that my grandmother upgraded to this new OS but I don't know how to downgrade it.. LOL

  • IPhoto does not start up after upgrading

    On my new iMac iPhoto does not start up after migrating. Upgrade from iPhoto 6/Snow Leopard > Lion 10.7.1 with iPhoto 9.1.5. When the conversion is finished I can see the new library, it works allright. And with packet-inspection (or how is that called in English) all maps & data seems to be OK; I can check the seperate pics.
    But: iPhoto won't start up a second time (grey screen with infinite spinning wait cursor). The same thing is happening when I add a new library and drop in some pictures.
    What can cause this problem?

    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. .

    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.

  • IPhoto does not start but gives an error message

    As soon as I start the iPhoto this messages shows up:
    I actually do not know  what I did wrong previously with iPhoto. Any help appreciated
    Ueli

    Sorry, that the error message did not show up. I copied the error message from a screenshot (cmd-shift-4) into my post but now only a question mark can be seen. Sorry.
    I am now at a different computer. But the error message said that the iTunes Library is locked or on a locked drive and at hitting the ok button the error message and iTunes closes.
    I checked already the harddrive (get info window) regarding that there is a permission missing. But that was ok. The user was allowed to read and write.
    I checked the iPhoto Library (get info window) trying to find there a missing permission but everything was ok.
    I really do not know that cause.

  • IPhoto does not start - spinning beach ball of death

    Hi
    When I try to start iPhoto I get the spinning beach ball of death and the whole laptop freezes.
    Cannot force quit, have to restart via power button.
    I have tried starting iPhoto while holding the Option key - no difference.

    I am trying to copy photos from an iPad to a Mac Air, but iPhoto does not recognize them. Please forgive the ignorance, but we have just started moving to apple products and I know nothing about them. Do you have to use PhotoStream to do this?

    How did the photos that you want to copy off get on the iPad  ? To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a Mac you should be able to use iPhoto, Aperture or Image Capture
    To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

  • Aperture does not start after iphoto update

    Hello,
    It seems that recent update to iphoto made Paerture not to start.
    At first attempt, Aperture opened the window, but never went into normal and beach ball was over the blank window, no functions worked.
    After Force quit, it does not start at all:
    From dock it just silently does not start and from Launch pad the error:
    "The application "Aperture" can't be opened
    -1712"
    is displayed.
    What could this be and how to make Aperture working again.
    This is Mavericks, 2012 MacBook Pro, Hires.
    Thanks a lot

    Computer reboot solved the issue.
    Aperture now sarts normally.

  • IPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1

    iPhoto does not recognise iPhone since upgrade to iOS 5.1. Have tried every suggestion I could find but to no avail. Using iPhoto 9.3 and IOS 5.1. This has only started happening since upgrade to IOS 5.1
    Image capture does not recognise iPhone device either, yet iTunes synchronises ok

    Any helpful suggestions to resolved this issue welcome!

  • Changed icon now iPhoto does not respond

    Hi,
    Can anyone help me, I went a bit silly changing my folder icons, but have now found that iPhoto does not work. I did change the icon for my pictures folder, and the data is still there, but now when I try to open iPhoto it just says 'loading library' and nothing happens. I am using iPhoto 4.0.3.
    Thanks
    G4 Powermac   Mac OS X (10.3.2)  

    HI, Stuart. Changing a folder's icon puts an invisible icon file inside the folder, so you changed your iPhoto Library folder's contents without iPhoto's participation or knowledge, and now iPhoto sees its database as damaged. This is a useful lesson in letting well enough alone, particularly where no useful purpose is actually served by your meddling. "Purely cosmetic" tweaks of the user interface can have more-than-cosmetic adverse effects on how things work (or don't).
    Delete your custom icon from the folder, then hold down the Shift and Option keys while starting iPhoto. Keep holding them down until you're asked whether you want the database rebuilt. Say Yes and let iPhoto do its work. You will probably get everything back again in good shape.
    If your adventures with custom icons haven't messed anything else up, you're probably lucky.

  • Iphoto does not download

    Hi Guys! I just updated to Yosemite and I tried to update Iphoto but the downloading process does not start; it just says "installation" and nothing happens.. I already tried moving Iphoto to the trash and trying to download it again but that did not work either. Anyone who knows what to do? I am a little bit desperate:( could this have anything to do with the fact that I bought my laptop in Holland and that I updated it while in the US..?

    move the iPhoto application to the trash, reboot , verify that your internet connection is working correctly and try to install from the App store again

  • I just downloaded iPhoto 9.1.5 from App store. Now iPhoto does not open. Mac is an OS X, version 10.6.8. What now?  by Joan E

    I just downloaded iPhoto 9.1.5 from App. store. Now iPhoto does not open. What now?

    Same question.
    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • IPhoto does not remember faces when I name them in another person's batch

    I have been tagging faces in iPhoto 11 for the last few hours on my Retina MBP. In severeal cases I used the option of naming the face when it appeared in the wrong person's batch (ctrl+click > name). But then the "named" photos do not appear in that person's list of photos.
    I.e. - I have 26 potential photos of Bob. I go through them and see a photo of Dan. I ctrl+click on that photo and choose "name" and then type in Dan. After I am done with Bob's photos I go to Dan's folder (via the Faces corkboard) and I do not see the photo I named before anywhere.

    Faces has identified the wrong person.
    Actually iPhoto does not identify people - iPhoto suggests and you confirm or reject so you confirmed incorrectly (which happens to all of us)
    How do I re-assign to the correct person?
    double click on the photo to open it and click on "name" and type the correct name for the person
    Mary and Jane are in a group picture and have been identified by iPhoto, not me.
    In Mary's Faces album, Jane's picture is the thumbnail. In a way, the group picture is correct. I would rather have all of Mary's thumbnails show Mary.
    The choice offered by iPhoto is accept or reject. Going into Edit for the pictures does not give the option to identify faces.
    If you reject the person will remain un-named- and in the confirm names mode (starting with version 8.0.2) if you right click (control click) on the photo you can accept, reject or name
    I am reluctant to reject because the group picture may not show up again.
    You can always make a smart album with name is unnamed and find all photos with unnamed people (started in version 8.0.2)
