IPhoto update to Version 9.3.2

I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and just did the iPhoto update to V9.3.2, now it says photo library is damaged or unreadable. Anyone experienced this?

Back up your iPhoto library, depress the option an command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your iPhoto library

  • IPhoto update - Photos version 1.0

    Ugh.  Hate the new photos ap.  Why do we need iMacs and laptops if all aps are going to be the same as on iPads and iPhones.  But anyway....two quick questions.  In the new photo ap, can I change the background from white?  And is there a quick way to have my events as they were in iPhotos before this update?  I know I can drag and move all my events but I literally have at least 100 and I don't want to spend the time reorganizing something that was done before in iPhoto.  I know I can change my view to by title or by however they programed automatic as (what is that way - does anyone know??)  Am I just someone who likes things the way it was, or is anyone feeling my lack of excitement over this new iPhoto ap?  Its possible I am not seeing the good in it, and would love to hear what features is liked by people so maybe I can change my opinion on it.  Thanks.

    I'm with you. Can't do a thing with it. It's uploading all my photos (6k+) to iCloud and jamming up my bandwidth and processor/HDD, it's not importing photos from my camera, I can't see filenames any more, and it's taking forever to close down when I ask it to. What was wrong with iPhoto? Is there anything right with the new Photos? So far, so blooming rotten. Apple, don't patronise your customers, please, by dumbing apps down.

  • I just ran the updates for my MacBook Pro and now my iphoto will not open.  It says "You can't use this version of the application "iphoto" with this version of os x.  You have "iphoto 9.2.3

    I just ran my updates for my MacBook Pro and now my iphoto won't open. I get a pop up that say's You can't use this version of the applicaton IPhoto with this version of os x.  You have iphoto 9.2.3.

    This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks.  It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
    Note 1:  every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
    Note 2:  If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto 9.5.1.

  • Iphoto won't open, says not latest version, yet ran software updates and version didn't get updated. what's wrong?

    iphoto won't open, says not latest version, yet ran software updates and version didn't get updated. what's wrong?

    Hi,
    This happened to me with Lion (10.7.4). Here's what I did;
    1). Download and install the 9.1 Update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1322
    2). Download and install the 9.3 Update http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1545
    Hope this helps.

  • I can not download the last Iphoto update, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    I can not download the last Iphoto update that I already purchased it by app store, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    Thanks for your replay,
    Finally the Iphoto 9.5 was installed...any way ..I had to go to app store to purchase it because the previous version did not updated autimatically... only shoed me that there is a new version ...but it guided me to the app store to purchase it.... and I did it because I did not know that the up date was free...and the sistem did not adviced me about that...
    I have the last up date of os x 10.9 already...
    in this new version I have no problem to send the photos by e-mail... but in the previous one it allways showed me an error message like ¨I should try later because the server does not work¨  but I tryed with 4 differents e-mail account that worked perfectly in the app Mail.
    any way, this new version is ok..
    thenks a lot

  • IPhoto Update version 6.0.6 download appears to hang

    I opened iPhoto about an hour-and-a-half ago and I received a message indicating there were new updates (5 files). I indicated that the process should go forward. The files downloaded and began to install. The fourth one in the list, iPhoto Update 6.0.6 (smallest one - 7.3 MB) is currently in the process of installing, but it has been in this state (spinner spinning) for the last hour. What gives?
    iMac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    My bad (chock it up to the fact that until last week I had never touched an iMac). I had the application open and apparently the update needs to install with the application closed. As soon as I closed the app, the installation finished - 2 decades of Windows indoctrination has numbed my senses.

  • I downloaded the iPhoto update and now it won't open the library on my external hard drive telling me it is locked (which it isn't) what do i do?

    What format is the disk?

  • ITunes, Remote.app v2: Does v2 still work in iOS7 or will I be automatically updated to version 3? (Plus v3 and iTunes issues)

    Remote.app (version 2): Does it still work in iOS7 or will I be automatically updated to version 3?
    That is basically the main question I've come to ask (with some side commentary in parenthesis below).
    After trying out iTunes Remote App version 3, I saw that it scrambles playlists (such as Recently Purchased), which makes my playlists worthless. For example, using Remote.app, it's no longer possible to simply play the songs you bought over the last week at the iTunes Store using the Recenlhy Purchased Playlist. Since I buy a lot of music through the iTunes Store, I naturally want to listen to what I just paid for, just as I could using Remote.app version 2.
    But it's not just the Recenly Purchased playlist, it's all my playlists. Through the last decade, day in and day out, I've carefully orgnized hundreds of playlists that I've very crafted, song by song like old mix tape casettes.
    They payoff for this work has been enormous. Since starting with mp2 in 1995, then mp3 and continuing through to the thousands of dollars I've spent purchasing songs through the iTunes Store and tens of thousands on iPods, iPhones, iPads, and computers—I've been able to make music match whatever mood or music was juuust right for the moment, making for great moments and memories with friends and families. For some artists, I always want to hear their latest songs first or I want to to hear top rates songs first. Other lists are about creating a particular mood for just about any occasion. I can even shift the mood in the room with the right music list. It's really been fantastic the memories and moments I've been able to set the tone with the right song, and most of this has been not the song itself, but the flow of music I've created by orgnizing music lists. That's a lot of work I've invested. So the order of the songs matters a lot to me, especially the very first song that starts that list. That's the song I want to hear first, not somewhere in the middle.
    As of Remote.app version 3, these carefully crafted songlists are scrambled, making the App worthless. When I first noticed this I couldn't believe it, must be a bug. Nope, no bug, by design I found out. It's like when Lucy pulls the football away. It's mean spirited to take back features you've sold and promoted and people have grown to rely on in the workflow of their lives. So I downgraded back to Remote.app version 2.
    ((Actually, they're not really technically scrambled, they're actually presented in alphabertical order, which I think is really the same thing to me. Think about it: listening to an artists work alphabetically by title is really the most random and completely scrambled way to listen to their music. Or if you don't want to listen to them alphabetically, you can have them shuffled. Those are now the only two choices. Either way, the lists are jumbled, and like iTunes 11, several of the most powerful features have been taken away. In this case the exact thing that's missing is that the iTunes Remote no longer reflects the sort order of iTunes playlists.
    I don't know if this is a quiet, update-by-update shift away from our playlists and towards iTunes Radio or not, but I would think so. Why else would you make it less powerful. To quote Merlin Mann Apple tends to "fire a warning shot" feature wise before taking something away. The Finder has gotten less and less powerful in finding files and folders by their name and size through the last decade.
    I'm now noticing the same thing with iTunes, it's becoming more difficult to find the currently playing song. In iTunes 10, Go to Current Song would open the folder containing the list of the currently playing song, highlight and move that list to the top of the left column and then highlight that song. In iTunes 11, Go to Current Song will only highlight the folder that contains that song and nothing more. At that point you're on your own to hunt town the currently playing song. This feature has been broken—on purpose I suspect.))
    SO—I don't want to be forced into Remote.app version 3 and have my playlists scrambled on my iPhone and iPad. Is there anyone who knows the answer from first hand experience?
    If customer loyalty is as important to Apple as it should be taking away features in iTunes and Remote app will only drive old customers away.
    Thanks!!

    I like that I would be able to maintain my iPhoto library data for Faces and Places in Aperture, but am concerned that when the iPhoto library is "upgraded" for Aperture, and I decide I don't really need that program, the upgraded library won't work with iPhoto anymore.
    The iPhoto library isn't changed in any way by Aperture. Aperture will import the Library and you can choose to copy the files to the Aperture Library or reference them within iPhoto. As long as you don't delete files from the iPhoto Library via Aperture (which you could do if you choose to Reference) there is no impact on iPhoto
    Will I still be able to use iPhoto to access and organize my library, or will it be forever converted for use with Aperture?
    They are completely different libraries.
    Recently, iPhoto bugs make Events show up multiple times in iTunes when syncing for iPhone and iPad.
    Fixed in the 9.1.3 update.
    Will I find a better user experience with Aperture, or does it also use the single file library and suffer the same struggles iPhoto users have been seeing lately?
    Like iphoto, Aperture can use the "single file library" or it can use a Referenced Library (just like iphoto can). Note that using a Referenced Library offers not a whit more in terms of features or capabilities. It's file storage plain and simple. Nothing more.
    No you won't see the "same struggles iPhoto users have been seeing..." because Aperture is an entirely different allication.
    But you my see Aperture or Lightroom struggles

  • 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.

  • Losing Keychains from iPhoto Update

    Since the iPhoto update yesterday, when I attempt to click on Mobile Me to upload a gallery, I get prompted to keep my current keychains or update them (nothing new). However, when I click to update them (which I usually do), I lose them ALL and I can no longer access any secure sites, including Mobile Me.
    My iMac basically becomes non-functional as far as internet/email/networking/etc. Although, if I re-start my computer, my keychains return but I am once again prompted in iPhoto to update them. If I say no, it will keep asking me.
    Help???

    Andrew:
    First quit iPhoto, delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder, launch iPhoto and try again. If that doesn't jump start your MMe access give the following a try:

    After waiting a day for the rolling restore to happen, I called AppleCare because Apple had sent an email saying my service was back, and it wasn't. I still could send and not receive using Mail.
    Here is what fixed it. Go to MobileMe (terrible name) in System Preferences, log out. Then enter a garbage name and password and try to log in. This apparently clears the MobileMe preferences. Then enter your real UserName and PassWord. For me this was lights on.
    I am left wondering how long ago I could have had email had I known this preference reset scheme.
    Although it's for a Mail problem it will let you flush out the MobileMe preferences and enter your user name and password for a fresh start. See if that will help.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Iphoto update

    Hi
    I'm not sure why but my computer says it will not accept the new iPhoto update....why is this? Also, I burned a disc of cd's from my friend who had the iphoto update and tried to then upload these into my computer but it said I couldn't becuase I didn't have the latest version..
    what should I do ...thanks

    Hi Jenna,
    What version of iPhoto are you running? To find out, when iPhoto is open, go to the menu bar and click on iPhoto/about iPhoto. iPhoto 2 was the last free version of iPhoto. You now have to purchase the iLife suite which includes iPhoto, iTunes, iMovie, iDVD and Garageband. You probably downloaded the update to version 5 of iPhoto and it will not install unless you have iPhoto 5 already installed on your computer.
    Next, if you want to burn images to view or import into iPhoto from your friends computer, this is what you need to do.
    Creating a CD or DVD to be viewed in Windows or by a photo processing company
    I am thinking that the way you did it was within iPhoto. The disc you get from burning that way, is a mountable iPhoto Library. Meaning if you insert the CD into your computer, it will open iPhoto and mount in the source column for you to view the images.

  • 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!

  • Does iPhoto update a gallery from the changes to the album?

    When I create a web gallery I first create an album and drag photos into to. I do this in part because I also use my Apple TV to play a slideshow of albums. When I publish a web gallery of an album it uploads it just fine.
    But when I add a photo to the album, it doesn't make the change in iPhoto to the gallery or online. Do I have to make the changes in both locations? That seems like extra work. Doesn't iPhoto update the galleries from the albums that created them?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Only photos added to the actual web gallery in iPhoto will be added to the online gallery when updated. The album you use to create the gallery is not connected in any way except as a convenient way to group the photos initially and start the gallery. You don't need an album to create a gallery.

  • Comparison books Iphoto 4, iPhoto 5 early, iPhoto updated

    I just had delivered last night 5 copies of a hard cover 52 page book.
    First off, very fast turnaround time as it took 5 days from order to delivery. Impressive.
    Half the photo's in these books have been repeated in 2 previous hard cover books, one was made with iPhoto 4 right after that was released and one was made right after iPhoto 5 was released but prior to any updates.
    The initial iPhoto 5 book was made from the default dpi pdf setting and the 5 books were created at a hacked setting of 300dpi.
    The iPhoto 4 book is by far the sharpest, most balanced and cleanest as far as image out of the 3.
    The newest 300dpi books are a slight improvement in sharpness over the previous iphoto 5 book - however the contrast and color balance are quite different on some of the repeat images from the earlier 2 books.
    Somewhere the newest version of iPhoto 5 or the production pdf seems to blow some of the contrast way out. The invisible PDF is not like this and test prints form this same pdf to a high end printer I have access to were not like this.
    The lpi of the images has changed along the way - I will measure the actual screening used tonight and post back. A much coarser screen appears to be used now.
    Addiionally, according to FedEx, my books were shipped from a New York State address unlike the west Coast pick-up point of the previous orders. Maybe the problem is varying equipment/QA, etc., from factory to factory?

    I did take home a line gauge and a loop to give the 3 books a once over. Just a reminder that all 3 books are hardcover, 1 from iPhoto 4 with default dpi, 1 from iPhoto 5 (initial version with default dpi), 1 from iPhoto 5 after updates with increased dpi to 300dpi. The last iPhoto 5 book I had delivered via FedEx shows a New York State pick up point instead of the previous West Coast pick up points. Maybe books are being produced in multiple locations?
    For comparison I looked at common photo's used in each version of the book. The photo's are the same ones from my iPhoto library and were not changed and reproduced the same size,
    Because of the fineness of the screen I could not get an accurate reading on any of the screens but they appear to be 150lpi+ in all books.
    There is a noticeable difference from the iPhoto4 Book and both iPhoto 5 books. The iPhoto 4 book was a finer screen and I would say by a decent enough amount. Both iPhoto 5 books had slightly coarser screens and if they are different between the 2 it would be by a small amount.
    There is a large difference of clarity between both iPhoto 5 books and this is mostly due to the 300dpi change in the prefs file. Though some of it could also be due to equipment differences or quality control as well. The sharpness of the iPhoto4 book is unmatched in the others.
    One item I noticed is a difference in the paper. I did not have a paper gauge to measure the weight of the paper but it seems similar as does the vibrancy and coating of the paper. The iPhoto 5 books have a paper that folds over easier and when turning the page can fold in on itself if the paper is gripped lower towards the spine. This may be the result of the chance the paper grain being vertical instead of horizontal. Maybe this is a result or requirement of the 2 sided printing?
    Also, in both iPhoto 5 books there is a noticeable difference in image tonal range. There appears to be less mid-range tones and an increase in each extreme resulting in images having much more contrast with increased shadow and highlight. This means more blacks/darks, and white areas being more white with less midrange tones. It appears to be more of a problem with single tone images (black and white but saved as rgb and not greyscale) rather than color images. Sepia images exhibit this a great deal as well.
    Why this happens can be anyone's guess but may be as simple as a problem with iPhoto and how it handles the images, to incorrect calibration on the image output, or the actual reproduction mechanism or simply less quality control.
    Lastly, the iPhoto 4 book is top quality, the initial iPhoto 5 book was only OK and print quality certainly improved with iPhoto 5 updated with the 300dpi resolution change but does not equal the level of quality with iPhoto 4. The 5 books I had delivered this week will be used and hopefully appreciated but it is too bad they are not to the initial quality I was excited about.

  • IPhoto update help

    Hi,
    I recently installed Leopard on my PowerBook G4 that previously had Panther running. I have been trying to download the most recent iPhoto updates but I keep getting the message that "An eligible iPhoto application was not found in the location /Applications." which I am assuming means that I have a really old version of iPhoto and that I need to download older updates first before downloading newer ones. I tried loading updates as early as 4.0.3 and got the same message. Help!

    You need to purchase iLife to upgrade. Free updaters will not change the first digit of the version number except for the now-pulled iPhoto 2 download.
