Keeping iPhoto 6 AND using iPhoto '08

perhaps i missed something but i thought i understood that when iLife '08 was installed it left the prior apps in a folder somewhere so that i could use/revert to the older version if i wanted.
we are set up as 2 users. i updated the library on one user but on the other i would prefer to stick with iPhoto 6 because i use multiple computers and it says they are not able to be opened in earlier versions once i update.
does anyone know where the iPhoto 6 app is being stored? i haven't given iPhoto '08 permission to update yet so i know i still have the option to remain in iPhoto 6 but where oh where is it?
thanks robin
this is a powerbook 1.67 GHz Power PC G4 OSX 10.4.10

i thought i understood that when iLife '08 was installed it left the prior apps in a folder somewhere so that i could use/revert to the older version if i wanted.
This is true for iMovie: when you install iMovie '08 it retains iMovie 6 for you. This is because the new version is a completely different application, not a simple upgrade, and can't do a lot of the functions that iMovie 6 can do. So those who choose to upgrade can use both iMovies. However, from what I've read iMovie '08 simply won't install on your Mac.
I have not read about this behavior with any other iLife '08 application. To keep iPhoto 6, you will have to rename the application before installing iPhoto '08, to prevent v6 from being overwritten.
Regards.

  • My iPad 2 keeps crashing when using iPhoto.

    My iPad 2 keeps crashing when using iPhoto. Have cleared my 'open' apps, reset and restored the iPad, reinstalled iPhoto. But same result when editing pictures imported from SD card. Seems like iPhoto is built for the quad core GPU of the new iPad? Pretty a waste of my $5 until I get it to stop crashing. I'm on OS5.1. Thanks!

    It works on the ipad 2.  I heard of an issue where if you have too many photos in your library may cause app
    to crash.  Try to uncheck but a few of your albums in your library in itunes.  Sync.  See what happens.

  • My iPhoto starts up and freezes.  I have tried rebuilding and using iPhoto Library Manager.  I have an iMac running 10.7.3.  It was working before recent updates by Apple.  How can I troubleshoot?

  • Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff!

    Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
    Cheers

  • Unable to view and use iphotos within imovie or idvd

    I recently upgraded to iLife '06 and I would like to view and use my iphotos from within imovie. But for some reason I cannot. When I click on the media button, I can bring in any of my iTunes music. But when I click on the photos button, nothing, except for a message to launch iphoto2 or later appears. the Show Photo Settings button is present, but nothing happens when I click. I do keep my photo library on a second hard drive, not the one which stores the applications. I've rebuilt the database several times. any suggestions are appreciated. -ab

    I discovered the root of the problem was an " & " used in the file name of my iPhoto library. That is evidently a no-no. After I renemed the library and restarted, all was working fine. -ab

  • IPhoto slidshow keeps pausing and other IPhoto Problems

    We have created several slidshows with music and now they keep pausing every 15-20 seconds for a split second up to several seconds.
    Further, it seems whenever I try to do something in IPhoto, whether it is cut and paste a title or moving through pictures in an event  I get the "colorwheel" for a few seconds or many seconds.  I am using IPhoto 11 version 9.3.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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. .

  • How can I disable iPhoto and use my iPhone / iPad as in Windows?

    I really despise iPhoto and I would like to use my iPhone / iPad just like in Windows where I can drag and drop the photos and videos from my iPhone or iPad as if it's an external hard drive in windows.  iPhoto is the only thing I really truly hate about OSX. 
    Thanks.

  • IPhoto '08 using iPhoto & Photoship cs5 as editor, choose every time?

    I have been using iPhoto '08 for storing all my pictures and am also using it for basic editing. I also use Photoshop CS5 frequently. I know via preferences you can choose your external editor, which will then be your editor by default. I am wondering if there is an option that when you press 'edit' that you are asked to which external editor you want to go? Instead of having to change it under preferences every time...

    You don't have to change in Preferences every time. You can right click (or control click) on the image and choose 'Edit in External Editor'.

  • Searching iPhoto clips  using iPhoto keywords within iMovie ('09)??

    Just returned to Apple after a 30 years (yes, 30 years) absence with a lovely refurb iMac.
    Main problem now is moving over and categorizing my library of photos and video clips taken with my Canon g9 . iPhoto has got the photo end covered nicely, now that I figured out how to use Bibble to process the raw images.
    But videos is another matter. I really do like the way iPhoto uploads and categorizes my videos out of the box, and adding in the same keywords as my pictures makes it a winner for me. BUT, I noticed when looking at the iPhoto clips from within iMovie, the keywords assigned to the clips from within iPhoto are not accessible from within iMovie. Yes, iMovie has its own keywords, but geez must I really go through ALL those clips and re-keyword (new verb ?) them all after already doing it within iPhoto at import ?? AIUI, the keywords are saved in XML files in iPhoto. Isn't there a plugin or something available for iMovie that would allow it to search iPhoto clips using the iPhoto assigned keywords ? it seemed a no-brainer to me, given that these programs are designed to work together at some level, but apparently not. Or am I missing something ?
    iMovie has not impressed me as a stand-alone cataloguing program, so I've looked into iDive, Footrack, etc, but those are not accessible from Front Row, whereas there is a little tool that makes clips in iPhoto visible from FR (called Purre).
    A compromise might be necessary, but first I want to be sure that what I am suggsting cannot be done.
    your collective wisdom will be much appreciated
    -bun

    It might be worth it to you to keyword in iMovie. It is very different from iPhoto. For example, if you have a 30 minute movie in an Event, and you have 2 minutes of your child as part of the movie, you can keyword those two minutes and go instantly to those frames. In iPhoto, you could put a keyword that your child is in the video, but you would only know that it is somewhere in the 30 minutes and you would have to search for it.
    See [this video tutorial|http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/#mark] for how to do simple marking of your video.
