IPhoto un-update possible?

I updated iPhoto and now if I try to upload a file somewhere with a "choose file" option, and I click on Photos (under Media) and then on "iPhoto library" it tells me "Open iPhoto to see photos from your iPhoto library in this list" but it still doesn't work if I have iPhoto open! This has historically been my primary way of uploading photos, which as a model is of supreme importance to me. I liked how iPhoto was BEFORE this update, and was wondering if I could un-update and go back to what I had. Help would be appreciated.

Quit iPhoto
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for files  called AlbumData.xml'.
Drag it to the Desktop.
Start iPhoto. Opening may take a moment or two longer as this file is recreated. Then try upload again.

  • How do I stop iPhoto from updating

    How do I stop iPhoto from updating itself every time I put a backed up iPhoto disc in to play? Now I quit or force quit iPhoto to stop it happening. Happens every time I install a CD or DVD disc. It cant possibly be necessary every time.

    Chances are, that disc was created by an earlier version of iPhoto. iPhoto is trying to convert the library on the disc into an iPhoto 6 library, because the file structure is different in v6. The only fix I know is to copy the disc to your Mac, let iPhoto update your disc as an individual library, then burn a new disc that iPhoto 6 will like.

    problem updating to iphoto 9.6 after upgrading to Yoesmite  I am getting the following message when I try top date iPhoto This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or canc

    "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." ?
    This error message will appear erraneously, if you skipped the update to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1 and went straight from an earlier MacOS X version to Yosemite, without first updating to iPhoto 9.5.1 and associating iPhoto to your AppleID.
    Try first to buy iPhoto with your AppleID instead of updating. Delete iPhoto from Applications, but don't empty the Trash, then go to the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto. If you are lucky, it will show as free and you can buy it directly.
    If iPhoto  is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support: Ask for a redemption code. You will need to provide a prove of purchase for your mac with iPhoto preinstalled.

    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    is the garageband, iPhoto,iMovie update free, as I have purchase mac book pro last december, I am unable to update it from app store. When I try to do so it says "To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it"
    I have apple ID but after signing into that account too, it does't allow to update. None of the updates for these application are show in software update of late, but it flashes in the dock where app store is . Kindly suggest.

    Should be the account you registered your mac with, and/or the account you used during the setup assistant.

    I'm using OS Extended 10.9.5.  I don't know what the original version of iPhoto was.

    Have you run the iPhoto Library Upgrader? You need to direct it to the location of your old iPhoto Library by clicking the "Choose Library" button in the lower right corner of the panel you are seeing when the upgrade starts.

  • Since iphoto 11 update, why can't I  upload photo to facebook. It says that fb can't recognize my email/password combination

    Since iphoto 11 update, why can't I  upload photo to facebook. It says that fb can't recognize my email/password combination. I can't seem to find out why.

    in the iPhoto preferences ==> accounts delete your e-mail account and reenter it
    OR
    IMHO the better solution is to set Apple mail as the email client in the iPhoto preferences

  • Before removing iPhoto (latest update crashed the app), I accidently removed it from my purchased Apps from the App Store. I accept iPhoto when I search for it, but does not put it back in my list. How do I get this back so that I can reinstall iPhoto?

    Thank you.

    I found the answer just after posted this.  Thanks to a user named CloudWalker.  Solution is to go in AppStore, View Account under "Store" Menu and unhide any purchases.

  • I want to re-install OS but keep all the photos in the iphoto, is that possible?

    Please describe the problem, in as much pertinent detail as possible, rather than your conclusions as to what's causing it or how it should be solved.

  • Lion and iPhoto not updated?

    On October 13 i wanted to install ios 5, iphoto 9.2, lion 10.7.2, and already had itunes 10.5
    I updated ios 5 without problems, and then went to software update to update my mac.
    i found 3 updates: lion, iphoto and recovery. i wanted to install lion and iphoto, leaving recovery behind for 1 day or 2.
    i selected iphoto and lion to update and left the computer. i found later an error message saying that it was not able to download, but went to software update to redownload and iphoto and lion were not there(as they were already updated). Now i go to about my mac and the version is 10.7.2 and iphoto is 9.2, but if i search photostream or icloud i can't find it, instead of icloud i can sign in for a mobile me account (same in lion 10.7.1) so makes me think that i have the old version, but computer thinks is the new version, what to do? even searching in iphoto for updates, says is up to date. what can i do? i really need iCloud

    Log out of iCloud in the System/iCloud preference pane and disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's Photo Share preference pane.  Then log back in and re-enable, respectively.  That should jump start Photo Stream.

    It looks like you installed the Library Upgrader, but did not run it. It is installed in "Applications > Utilities". Launch this tool and click the "Choose Library" button to direct it to your iPhoto library.

  • Unable to import photos in Aperture after iPhoto last update 9.6.1

    Hi,
    I have no clue if it's related, but after iPhoto last update to 9.6.1, I'm no more able to import photos in Aperture from my Pentax K-50.
    Spinning wheel and after that, I get the message that no pictures were imported.
    Everything was going fine until that iPhoto update!
    Sometimes, it will import 1 picture and then Aperture will crash, saying that it was impossible to import pictures.
    I formatted my SD card, but same result.
    Any idea why this is happening?
    Thanks

  • Iphoto not Updating to version 9.6 after Yosemite install

    I installed Yosemite over Mavericks, my current system. My version of iPhoto never updated from 9.5.1 to Version 9.6. When I go to the App store and bring up the iPhoto app to update it gives me the option to "Open", but not update. I select "Open" and my iPhoto version 9.5.1 opens. I remove iPhoto 9.5.1 from my drive and went back to the App store. I still only had the option of "Open" when I brought up the iPhoto App. I then selected "Open" and nothing happens. When I select the "Updates" pane in the App store, it shows that I Updated to iPhoto 9.6 on November 13th. No mater where Ii look, I'm unable to find my upgraded version. I've had Apple and Mac since time began, so I'm not new at this. I feel like I'm missing something.
    How do I update to iPhoto version 9.6?

    When I go to the App store and bring up the iPhoto app to update it gives me the option to "Open", but not update. I select "Open" and my iPhoto version 9.5.1 opens.
    9.5.1 won't open on Yosemite. It seems like you did update. I'd ask this on the App Store forum as that seems to be the where the problem lies.
