IPhoto update from 9.1.5 to 9.2 not possible

My iPhoto/iLife 11 version came with Lion and was installed after a harddisk crash last summer.
Now the program updates don't show up in the Softwareupdate-program, but only in the App Store. I can update any purchased program there, except iLife programs (at the moment Garage Band an diPhoto), as I get the answer: "updates for other accounts available - switch to the account you have purchased the program with". Indeed I have a second account, but get the same message when I try to use this one.
I also downloaded the update from the apple website, but it doesn't install!
What can I do to finally get iPhoto to update on the new version?

You're going to need to sort out that account issue with the App Store. As it's an account issue only they can help. It seems that the install is attached to the account of whoever installed after the HD crash.

Update from 8.1.2 to 9.2 not possible

Hi
my mac runs Lion and iphoto 2009. I'm trying to but from the Mac App Store the new iphoto 11 but the computer says:
"Unable to verify the distribution of the product as it can be damaged or has not been signed"
Please, helpme

You cannot upgrade across full versions. Only folks who have iPhoto 9.0 or 9.1 can upgrade to 9.2. You have to purchase iPhoto '11 (which is iPhoto 9.X)

IPhoto updates from App store.

Would anyone know why iPhoto updates from the App store seem to take ages to load.
They always seem quite large in content and for all I know could be replacing the entire
iPhoto program.

It seems pretty much in line to me.
You have a 14000 kps download speed. That's about 1.4 MB per second - but... That's assuming you have only one download going, depends on the contention rate of the ISP, how fast your Mac can write to the HD and how fast the output from the server is.
So, there can be considerable variation from download to download depending on these factors.
But even if you divide the size of the download by the nominal speed (and divide that buy 60 to get minutes) you'll see that it's not far off. So, 740/1.4/60 you get 8.8 minutes or thereabouts.
When your App checks for updates it basically says something like "Hello, I'm iPhoto v9.1.5, do you have an update for me". That's really all that Apple know. The update mechanism on your Mac performs a similar equation to get an estimate of the time.

Uninstalling iPhoto Update from iLife

Does anyone know how to uninstall the iPhoto update from iLife (and even for iMovie too)? I really don't like the new iPhoto as simple things are now more difficult or aren't available anymore. The changes seem more superficial as I haven't found any new tools or processes that help. Don't even get me started on the iMovie problems. Please tell me there is a way to go back.

iPhoto 7 did not make things harder to do, in fact it is virtually identical to the previous version!
I generally agree - But a few things are different and there is a requirement that a user LEARN how to use the new features and those that have changed - for doing that you get a greatly expanded capability so IMHO it is a great trade off - but for a user who is unable or unwilling to learn a few new things it can be difficult - as can ANY new version of ANY new software

How do I Restore my iPhoto library from my time machine if it does not give me the restore option?

How do I Restore my iPhoto library from my time machine if it does not give me the restore option?
When I go into my backups and click on the iPhoto library it does not come up with an option to restore it just says open and of course then won't let me open it because it is a back up in time machine? I need these photo very important.

After updating from SL to Lion my iMac does not start

Hi,
after I updated from SL to Lion, my iMac did not boot correctly. It came to the apple and the turning wheel, or at the best up to the desktop and then the black screen > maschine was off. I repaired the HD, after 6-7 trials, I reached a very slow Lion environment, not satisfieying at all. I installed Lion again, no change. Now I can only use the iMac after star with shift key, i.e. protected mode.
Any idea what to do?

Imagine calling to your Doctor and saying "I'm unwell. Please advice (sic)"? What would he say? I think he'd start by asking a for a whole lot more information, wouldn't he? So, same here.

Can't recreate iphoto library from time machine. Sais there is not enough space where there is more double.

can't recreate iphoto library from time machine. Sais there is not enough space where there is more double.

Recover the iphoto library to a different location eg, a USB drive.. since there could be issues with the new photo app.

after update to IOS 6 on my Ipad2 it not possible to go to month view of March 2013 in the calendar app?
on my Ipone with IOS there is no problem
is Apple aware of this problem?
When will it be solved?

Probably the app developers fault but then Apple needs to warn people about compatiblity of apps... I will add a review note to TOP 3 to warn people
If it is an app compatibility issue - it IS the app developers responsibility to make sure that they update their apps in order to work with the new iOS. Apple owes no users a warning whatsoever. Common sense tells me that a very old app that has not been updated for the last two iOS updates just might not make the grade in the third iOS release since the app came out.
I can't even find an App called Top 3 Solitaire in the U.S. App Store. Perhaps the app was so old and it hasn't been updated in so long so it was pulled from the App Store.

Can you use an application in hyper-v environment in Windows server from each client computer or that is not possible?

hi,
I like to know besides running 2 or more operating systems,like exchange or SQL ect .
what other benefits it has for example when you install 2-3 applications in t hyper_v environment can you use those applications from each client computer or that is not possible at all. ( I don't mean cloud )
thanks

thanks,
so , now what is the benefit of hyper-v role on essential 2012r2 . it that means that I can install only one operating system on it only one instance and no more. also I can run some applications on this server just like you say with RDP licence
for each user to acces this virtual server!
and if I want more instances then I have to get datacenter.

IPhoto update from iLife06 won't open HP Scans. Help?

I decided to install iLife06 and had instant problems. I have a 2.5 Dual G5 running 10.3.9. and am using an HP 4890 scanner. Prior to installing the iPhoto update as part of iLIfe06, everything worked fine. I would scan a photo and transfer it to iPhoto and open it and work on it and whatever. Now...scans won't open in iPhoto. No matter how I try to sneak the scan into iPhoto, (via Preview, etc.), it won't open, freezes and has to be force quit. Reinstalled HP software to no avail. All the prior scans done on the same HP 4890, that were already in iPhoto, open fine, but new ones....nada. Had issue with iWeb too, not happy with this iLife06...how do I get rid of it, get back the old iPhoto, and back to serenity? If I use the original disks can I just install the old iPhoto?

Hi redcatres,
I do not know the answer of why the scans are not opening in iPhoto. Do you scan and save to a folder (not the iPhoto Library folder), then import into iPhoto?
To get back to iPhoto 5, you would really need a backup of the iPhoto 5 Library folder that has not been updated to version 6 in order to keep your metadata such as comments and keywords, and also all your albums, slideshows, books.
You can go back to 5 if you do not have a version 5 backup, but you will have to reimport your photos and lose your metadata.
Steps:
To reinstall iPhoto 5
Drag the iPhoto Library folder in the Pictures folder to the desktop and rename it it iPhoto 6 library
Navigate to /Applications and drag iPhoto to the trash
Navigate to /Library/Receipts and drag all iPhoto receipts to the trash
Navigate to ~/Library/Preferences and drag com.apple.iPhoto.plist to the trash.
Insert your iLife 5 CD/DVD and choose to do a custom install. You will have to keep ongoing through the steps of the install before you get to the screen where you can choose a custom install.
Install iPhoto.
Run Software Update and update iPhoto to the latest version of 5
Put your backup iPhoto 5 library in the Pictures folder and launch iPhoto.
If you do not have a backup iPhoto 5 library:
Open the iPhoto 6 library folder on the desktop
-double click the iPhoto Library folder on the desktop to open it
-the two main folders you will need to import are the Original folder and the Modified folder (only if you want to import the edited images).
-the Originals folder has all your originals photos unedited. the Modified folder has all images that you have edited, rotated, cropped, etc.
-Drag these two folders to the desktop
-If you want to save the edited image, find it in the roll in the Modified folder and drag it into the roll of the same name in the Originals folder. It will replace the originals and now will be the original.
-If you don't care to save any edited images, then don't import the Modified folder into iPhoto or don't bother replacing the edited image with the original image like I just described.
-If you import the Originals folder into iPhoto you will have all your originals in their named rolls.
-If you import the Originals and Modified folders into iPhoto, you will have all of the being in the originals folder in the finder. The roll with the same name as the other will have a _1 appended to it's name (in the finder)
-the roll from the originals will be next to the same roll from the Modified folder within iPhoto. You can then delete any of the images from there if you want.
I know this might sound confusing but it really isn't.
Get back if any of this sounds like something you might want to do.

IPhotos update from 2.0.1 to the one that has multiple editing facilities

My effort to upgrade from OS X 10.3.9 to OS X 10.4 was a total disaster as it corrupted all of my most important Applications:- broadband, email, Appleworks, printer, and others.
I have had all my most important material saved, mostly 25,000 photos & family stuff, and a clean instalation done of OS X 10.3.0. I upgraded it to 10.3.9. which is where I was before. This gave me about 14GB more space on HD, which was down to 1.5GB.
I will be buying a top iMac very soon, but in the next 6-8 weeks, but I still want to edit my recent music photos, and edit them properly. I don't do Photoshop, neither am I yet on iLife.
I still do my popular website on iMac, (Does it still exist?)
So my question is:- Which is the first/most appropiate iPhoto application/ update that does all the multiple photo editing processes after iPhotos 2.0.1 in OS X 10.3.9 Panther.
Where can I find it?
Your help will be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Rupe.

Thanks Larry,
I understand that low HD memory causes difficulties, which is why my new iMac will have up to 1 Terabyte of HD memory.
I am looking for the same version of iPhoto as I had previously, before having to do a clean install.
In edit mode iPhotos 2.0.1 can only alter brightness/contrast. The slightly higher edition which I had before, could alter about 8-10 aspects including sharpness, exposure, brightness, contrast, warmth, straightening, antiquing etc. I can't rememember all the effects, because I only ever used a few of them, plus sometimes red-eye or crop. Neither can I remember the number of the application, but I think it would probably be iPhoto 2 or 3, maybe 4. Higher versions probably would not work on OS X 10.3.9.
I am talking pre OS X 10.4 applications for iPhoto, which I have only been using for around the last year or maybe a bit longer, which would work on OS X 10.3.9.
Forget iLife '08 and iPhoto '08. I am not yet into that, but I do look forward to using it.
When I go on Software Update it does show any iPhotos updates.
Are you able to help me.

How do I download my iPhoto update from App Store?

I have iPhoto on my iMac (it is the one that came preinstalled - it has likely had updates made to it since I had the iMac as I have had it a few years now, but I never use iPhoto so don't know which version currently.)
I am running 10.8.2.
I have just got an iPhone and wish to download some photos, so I read on the apple site that iPhoto will automatically do so when I connect with USB.
I have gone to my iPhoto application and it won't open. Instead a message comes up saying "You can't open the application iPhoto because it is being updated." When I open up the App Store to see where to update it, iPhoto is listed in the lists of update apps with RESUME next to it. (Perhaps I may have tried to upload the update before...) But I go RESUME a box pops up saying "You cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software."
Could someone please help. What do I need to do to get the application to update? (I need my photos off my iPhone to send to someone quite urgently!)
Many thanks.
Fran

Hello, I finally went to the App Store support who rang me back and went through it. It seems that Mountain Lion will not operate iPhoto 9.3.2, you have to have 9.4.2. So trashed the application in my Applications folder (which has cleared my App Store of the hanging iPhoto updater) and they signposted me to the download for 9.4.2 (mind you it is taking hours to download!!) I live in hope that this will fix it. If it doesn't I'll let you know!

Remove apps from I tunes history...why not possible?

IPhoto update from Mavericks deleted my library. How can I get my pictures back?

Soo my iPhoto just decided not to find my photo library anymore.
When I open iPhoto, it only opens a windwo where I can decide which library I want to open, but gives me no choices, the list is empty. Normally this window opens when my external HD is connected to my macbook since then there's two iPhotos available, but now it just doesnt find even one.
I had another problem with the iPhoto on my external HD, i wanted to open it but a window opened to tell me that my library is used by another programm or that the library can't be read anymore. I was able to save those pictures by showing the contents and copying the pictures.
Buuuut now on the macbook, when I do the left click thing to open the contents of the package, there are no pictures in it at all, no folder has pictures in it. When I copy the version from time machine, nothing changes. iPhoto has a size of 1.7 Gb, which is way to small. God dammit.
How can I get my pictures back?

Thank you Terence!
Okay, so here the details:
iPhoto Version 9.5.1
OS X Version 10.9.1
So here what I did, detailed. (pardon my english, I'm swiss)
I downloaded Mavericks, few days later updated iPhoto (the iPhoto icon was orange before and turned blue after the update). All went well, until one month later, all of a sudden, I was not able to open my iPhoto on the external harddisk. A window opened to tell me that either my library is being used by another programm or that it can't be read anymore. To solve this problem iPhoto tells me to do several things, for example shut down the computer and then open iPhoto again, or set up my library again or open iPhoto by pressing command and alt. But non of those instructions helped. So I opened the contents, I looked for the folder with the masters of my pictures and copied the whole thing onto another harddisk.
I think I got those Pics saved, but I still can't open iPhoto on the external harddisk.
Oh and by the way, the iPhoto icon on my external harddisk looks different now, it's three pictures in a row and the one on top shows a redish flower.
So now, two days later I try to open the iPhoto on my regular macbook. A window pops up and says that I have to choose a library that I want to open. (iPhoto usually did that when I had my external harddisk connected since there were two different librarys then, one on my external, one on my computer) But now, instead of showing me the library's I can choose from it only shows nothing, no list or anything i could even choose. And then below there's this button that says something like "create a new library".
So what I did:
I open the contents and looked for the masters of my pictures, but there weren't any pictures at all. The iPhoto has a size of 1.7 GB which I think is too small for all the Pics and videos i stored in there.
I tried to get the IPhoto from Time Machine, but nothing changed. Iphoto still's 1.7 GB.
I opened the file "Pictures" in the Finder, but there's no such file like "iPhoto library", like it's deleted or something like that.
So i think that I used iPhoto usually, nothing speciall. I imported Pictures from my iPhone or camera and left them there.
Does that help?

How to remove apple store iPhoto-update from screen?

I bought an applebook pro recently ... apple store offers an update indicated by an encircled red 1.
When hitting up-date a pull down message tells me to enter with the account I purchased iPhotot with.
This makes no sense as iPhoto has been part of the bundle of programs installed on the laptop already.
Is there a solution out there or a way to remove this update reminder from the apple store icon?
Thanks,
Peer

Thanks for your help which does not help much ... as said I bought the applebook along with iPhoto not separate ... Apple store asks me for an ID I don't have ... I cannot apply my Apple ID which I set right after purchasing ... in other words ... I get allowance to enter apple store with my ID but when hitting the up-date button apple store ask for an ID I cannot have as I bought iPhoto long with the applebook ... do you have other ideas how to overcome this issue?
