IPhoto version 4 wont open pictures burned on CD using version 5?

i have a G5 iSight PowerPC and my girlfriend a G4 ibook (2004). I downloaded our vacation pics from my camera to my G5 using iPhoto v5.0.4 and accidentally erased my camera's memory card after the download. So - I thought I'd burn a disc with the new photos and then import them onto her G4 (which uses iPhoto v 4.0.3). Everytime I insert the photo disc into the G4 I get a message saying iPhoto cannot open album as it was created using a later version of iPhoto.
I'm stuck since she cannot get our vacation pics onto her computer ! Can anyone help? Thanks in advance..
iMac G5 iSight Mac OS X (10.4.7) compatibility, versions, iPhoto v4 , v5
ibook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

iPhoto 5 is perfectly capable of exporting photos to a folder on your desktop. Just drag the selected images from iPhoto to the target folder. Burn that folder to a CD, and you can share it with anyone who has a computer with a functioning CD drive.

  • Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true.

    Cannot open my library. iPhoto says I opened it before with a newer version which is not true. I am using Snow Leopard and iPhoto 7.1.5 which seems to be the latest update. How can I reach my photos? I don't particually care for iPhoto anymore since I am using Lightroom now, but I would very much like to reach my picture files, HELP

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    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. 
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption. 

  • My keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me

    my keynote has frozen and wont open but the saved version wont open either. if i restart my laptop i am afraid that it will erase my work. please help me

    Try this repair for Keynote 6.2,  ensure you complete all the tasks and in the order shown:

    delete all the iWork applications if you have them, not just Keynote, using Appcleaner from Mac Update, its a freeware application

    empty the trash:  Finder > Empty Trash

    Shut down your Mac, wait 30 seconds, then power on the Mac, immediately after the start chime, hold down the Shift key
    When you see the grey Apple symbol and progress indicator (a spinning gear), release the Shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, then hold down the Shift key again as you click Log in. 
    Let the Mac fully boot up, it will take longer as the OS is repairing the drive
    4
    when fully booted, go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utility; click on the boot drive then First Aid tab and click  repair disc permissions
    5
    when complete, restart the Mac normally, Apple menu > Restart

    install Keynote from the Mac App Store
    let us know if this helped

  • There's a glitch somewhere. iphoto just wont open. upgraded to yosemite and downloaded iPhoto upgrader and it doesn't work, just keeps telling me to upgrade when I did already or quit, so no way to do photos on this brand new mac. that's a pity!!

    You need to have iPhoto 11 v9.6 (which you can get from the App Store) to use iPhoto on Yosemite. If you already have iPhoto 11 then the update is free. Otherwise it's a purchase.

    I am trying to open Captivate 8 after downloading a trial version but it won't open. Any ideas?

    This is how I fixed it with instructions I received from ajit:
    Hi There, The error you were getting because both files ( .7z and .exe ) of Captivate 8 not downloaded at the same location.  Please find the steps of download and installation of Captivate 8 ( 64 bit ) :- Open the link mention below in any Web Browser say Internet Explorer https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=captivate Sign in with your Adobe id and  Password, then you will be redirected to download Web Page of Captivate 8.   Do not click on Download.

  • Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email.  I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1

    Using Gmail in iPhoto and cannot find any of my groups to email.  I have at least seven or eight groups that I email, each containing over 50 addresses. Is there a way to locate my email groups using iPhoto to send out mail in Gmail? Using version 9.5.1  (902.17) OS is Mavericks 10.9.1.

    Your question and description is not very clear to me, so hopefully something here will help:
    1. Gmail is a service not an app or a place. So you need to access the service with an app - that can be iPhoto, Mail, Outlook or any other mail client, or even a Web Browser like Safari or Firefox.
    So you can't "go to GMail" as you write, but instead you go to an application set up to use the GMail service.
    2. iPhoto is not a mail client. It's a handy way to email pics to Grandma, but for what you're doing you need to use an app that supports all of the Gmail service. iPhoto doesn't. There is no way around that.
    3. How to send to groups will vary depending on what app you use to access the GMail service. All of these apps can receive photos from iPhoto, either - as in the case of Mail and Outlook, via the Share function - or, in the case of all the rest - via a Media Browser.
    For help sending to Groups using any of these other apps you need to ask omn their respective forums. But the workflow is quite simple:
    Using Mail or Outlook set in the iPhoto Prefereneces:
    1. Select the pic(s) you want to share.
    2. Choose email from the Share function
    3. Make your selections re size etc
    4. The email opens up in Mail or Outlook
    - from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.
    Using any other app:
    1. In the mail app create a new email
    2. Click on the Attach button or link
    3. Use the Media browser to select the pic(s) you want to send
    4. Attach them
    - from there you need to figure out how to use the email client.

  • Iphoto library wont open.

    After selecting iphoto library from external drive it iphoto still cannot open the library?

    My hard drive recently crashed so I got a new one and had everything moved over to it. I can still see all the pictures so I think they are there it just wont photos to a single bigger view of the them.
    How did you move your iPhoto Library to the new drive?
    What you are seeing in iPhoto are the thumbnails or previews of the edited versions, but to edit or export or copy your photos does iPhoto need to find the original image files.
    If you moved your iPhoto library to a new disk, it may be a permissions problem.
    Before you try to rebuild the library, try to repair the permissions first:
    Press and hold down the alt/option key ⌥ and the command keys at the same time and launch iPhoto. Keep holding down both keys until you see the First Aid panel.  From the panel select to "Repair permissions".
    If that does not already fix it, try all First Aid options in turn, but don't try the "Rebuild" without a backup.

  • IPhoto will not open - says: Library created with unreleased version

    I can't even open the app. due to a message that reads "The photo library was created with an unreleased version of iPhoto. Please quit and update this photo library by opening it in iPhoto 2 or iPhoto 4." I haven't done anything to the library recently. I did install Photoshop Elements and upgrade to OS 10.5 within the last few days. I got the same message in iPhoto before the upgrade to OS 10.5 however. Can anyone help me get my iPhoto open?

    Olla:
    Give Terence's suggestion a try. You'll end up with a new library and your old one for further attempts at fixing.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

  • HT5037 Iphoto Still wont open even after installed the prepare file

  • My iphoto app wont open

    my iphoto app wont open

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
    Next thing to try is a reboot of your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the devise restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Also some folks have found that a corrupt photo file causes iPhoto for iOS to crash. Removing all photos and recopying them to the iPad one or two albums at a time allowed some to find which photo was causing the problem and delete it.

  • My iphoto library was opened remotely on a computer using a newer operating system. Now it won't open on mine!

    My iphoto library was opened remotely via sharing on a computer using a newer (10.7) operating system. Now it won't open on mine (10.6). It says it needs a newwer version of iphoto, and I want this computer to stay at 10.6 for compatability with other programs. How can I access my photos?

    When the library was opened you were warned this would happen.
    You can restore your Library from your back up.
    You can try revert the Library to the earlier version using iPhoto Library Manager
    Or you upgrade to the same version.

  • Original iPhoto library wont open

    iPhoto.app version: 9.5.1
    OSX Version: 10.9.4
    In my Pictures folder I have:
    - iPhoto Library
    - iPhoto Library 2
    * iPhoto Library (original) is huge, 461.19 GB
    * iPhoto Library 2 is empty, which is okay as I created it trying to fix the issue of iPhoto Library (original) not opening.
    What the problem is:
    - iPhoto Library (original) doesn't open
    Here is what I've tried:
    - Creating a new iPhoto Library 2
    Here is an additional issue
    - Since I've created the iPhoto Library 2, iPhoto Library (original) does not display as an option to select if I open iPhoto.app and hold down the option button.
    So I can't select the iPhoto Library to while holding down the option and command buttons, this only brings up the repair menu for iPhoto Library 2.
    Iv'e tried to select the iPhoto Library (original) by opening iPhoto.app and holding down the option button, then selecting the Other Library button, finding the iPhoto Library (original) and then selecting it (BTW that's how I know what size it is). I can select it, but clicking the Open button does nothing.
    NOTE: I'm a software engineer and have no problem using the command line, I'm thinking this is a permission issue or a database issue it just needs to be reindexed.
    Question: I know from the command line I can reindex application data such as the mail.app, can I also do this with the iPhoto.app?
    Any other suggestions?

    to get the first aid option Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

  • IPhoto, iChat, wont open "due to a problem"

    iPhoto and iChat do not open, they close "due to a problem". I have repaired disk permissions a plethora of times, I used Disk Warrior to rebuild the partition. And Ive done everything, including deleting preferences (plists, etc). I appreciate any help.

    You may have older version of iPhoto and iChat that were written with Power PC code. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info and then System Report . When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Lion.
