IPhoto doesn't open after migration/upgrade

I see several discussions similar to mine, but not exactly.
I just migrated from a MacBookPro 10.6.8 to a Pro 10.8.2.
My iPhoto was iPhoto 8, vers 7.1.5.
After migration and upgrade my iPhoto is vers 9.4.1.
When I try to open iPhoto I get the message that the library files must be upgraded.
I downloaded and installed iPhotoLibraryUpgrade. When I try to run the program, it says:
You library can open with the current version of iPhoto and does not need to be prepared with this tool.
I have tried opening iphoto with the cmd-opt key, but nothing here will run.
Get the same message: the files must be upgraded.
I downloaded the libraryManager and tried to open the library "package" but an unable to.
It's "untouchable".
Please, any suggestions would be great as I sit here with no access to my iPhotos.

With iPhoto Library Manager you need to run the Rebuild command not open the package.

  • Iphoto doesn't open after update MAC OSX 10.6.8, error message says: library not loaded

    iphoto does not open after software update.
    i am using MAC OS X 10.6.8
    it says: library not loaded,...reason image not found
    EXC BReakpoint (sigtrap)

    It's missing background frameworks:
    Library not loaded:/library/frameworks/ilifepagelayout.framework/versions/a/ilifePageLayout
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • IPhoto Won't Open after Migration

    Migrated hard drive content from a 15" MacBook Pro running Mavericks to a 17" MacBook Pro.  iPhoto app did not appear in 17" hard drive.  Downloaded latest iPhoto version from Apple web site.  Now iPhoto won't open.  Tried various suggestions from forums (Command-Option opening) and rebuilt files several times using the four methods shown on the window.  No luck.  Spinning wheel goes on and on and finally gives me an "iPhoto Quit unexpectedly."  Can anyone give this neophyte a helping hand to show me how to recover my nearly 11,000 photos that seem to be running just fine on my 21" iMac with Mavericks?
    Would appreciate any assistance.

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9,  go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
    where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

  • Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
    Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading.  When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
    See this linked document:   Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library.  So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well  on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
    There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more.

  • IMessages won't open after Mavericks upgrade

    iMessages won't open after I upgraded to Mavericks. I keep getting prompted to "enter the keychain password," but I never created a keychain. I never used it before the upgrade, and I skipped the step during the upgrade because I did not want to use keychain and it was an option to skip it during set up.

    HI,
    The OS X Mac have been using Keychains for a long time.
    In the Applications/Utilities folder open Keychain Access.
    This should show you at least two keychains.
    The Login one for your Mac User account and the System one.
    Generally speaking the Keychain keeps the passwords used by various apps and it needs to be Open.
    In most cases the Login password for the Mac Account user is also the password that opens the Keychian when the computer is started up.
    As each Mac User Account owns it's own Keychain there can be issues when you drag an account from one computer to another rather than using Migration Assistant.
    i.e. you might Own it on one computer but not on another.
    In the Finder > Go Menu hold down the ALT key and select the Library that appears.
    In the library navigate to Keychains.
    Click to highlight the Login one.
    Now use the CMD and i keys together (Get Info)
    At the Bottom unlock the padlock
    Highlight the name that has (me) next to it (it should be your Shortname).
    Once you have highlighted this use the cogwheel item at the bottom.
    This should be greyed out but saying "Make you (Me) the Owner."
    You should also have Read and Write permissions like in the Pic.

    Hi,
    Install the v10.6.6 combo update available here. It's ok to do this even though you are already running v10.6.6. The combo includes fixes that were not included in the original update.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
    Restart your Mac and try the MAS again.
    You can download apps directly from the MAS once you have it running.
    Considering the TM backup took so long, make sure there's enough space on your Mac startup disk.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. *Make sure you always have a minimum of 15% free disk space.*

  • Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Safari doesn't open after i updated it to 1.6.8

    Reinstall Safari 5.1.2
    Then restart your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, you may have a third party add on that was compatible with the prior version of Snow Leopard, but not 10.6.8.
    Troubleshooting help here >  Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    And try Safari in another user account. If you can't open Safari there as well, that's an indication the startup disk may need repairing.
    Log back in to your admin account, launch Disk Utility. That's located in /Applications/Utilities
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.

  • I just downloaded Ilife 9 and now my Iphoto doesn't open. The error message says: You cannot open your library using this version. Quit and use the older version. What can I do?

    I just downloaded Ilife 9 and now my Iphoto doesn't open. The error message says: You cannot open your library using this version. Quit and use the older version. What can I do?

    iLife '09 is not available as a download - it is only available as a purchase
    iLife '11 is available as a DVD purchase and the compoments of it are available from the App Store (iPhoto '11 (version 9.1.5), etc)
    Exactly what did you do? And exactly what does the error message say?
    On the surface it appears that you are attemptying to open a new library with an older version (iPhoto '09 can not open an iPhoto '11 library for example)
