Latest iPhoto update cannot complete

I downloaded and installed the latest version of iPhoto. The installation went without a hitch. The problem started when I tried to open iPhoto for the first time after the installation. A note popped up saying the file or photos need to be somehow updated too. I clicked OK and that was the last I ever saw of iPhoto in any useable form. All I get now is a timer indicating the update is continuing. That little timer went on for a couple days and I finally gave up and Force Closed the application. Next time I opened it a similar thing happened. And the little timer thing just keeps going.

Hi folks. I'm having the exact same problem. In fact, I've done everything or selected every option available when relaunching while holding down option and command. The progress indicator has been indicating that it's "restoring faces" since 9:30pm last night. That's nearly 14 hours ago. Maybe it's stuck on how to restore my face. Heaven knows I need it! I'm just waiting for the progress bar to come back and say "sorry mate, there's nothing more I can do for you
Anyone have anyfurther suggestions?

Events after latest iPhoto update divided themselves on iPad, Apple TV and iPhone

After the latest iPhoto Update I noticed a strange behaviour: In iPhoto i have about 10 events of photos. When I connect an iPhone or iPad and click on the photos rider in iTunes, there are at least 25 events. For example the Berlin event exists in iPhoto only once. On the i-device the event divided itself in three events! How comes? Bevore the Update everything was fine. iTunes transferred the only existing Berlin event in iPhoto. Now i have 3 events to chose from. And only when I chose all 3 of them I get the full photo set.
I did not change any settings. Bevore the iPhoto Update everything was fine, now chaos. Any ideas?

Obviously, I'm not alone with this:

After latest iPhoto update source list icons have no color

After updating iPhoto with the latest software updates, the icons in the source list have lost their color. This happened on both my MacBook Pro and iMac. I have iLife 11.

It's a design decision by Apple. Let them know what you think

Latest iPhoto Update question.

I just ran the iPhoto update - says step 9 100% complete but it keeps running. How long after it says complete does it take to restart iPhoto?

Couple of momens. It may be hung.
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
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. .

After latest security update cannot access my wired network

After the latest security update on my MBP.... no longer can access wired network on laptop. Desktop did not update.... can still access wired network.
Anyone have a fix for the updated MBP?
Thank,
Reed

Is it all applications that these keys don't work?
Also is it a wired keyboard or bluetooth keyboard, either keyboard i'd suggest starting with resetting SMC (helps USB) and PRAM (helps Bluetooth)
Reset SMC
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Reset PRAM
Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
If it's a USB keyboard i'd suggest trying a different USB port and restarting the computer, for a bluetooth keyboard i'd suggest removing the keyboard from Bluetooth Preferences and repairing the keyboard.

After latest iPhoto update - Permissions Problem

I updates iPhoto on my iMac, after updating my iPhones and iPad to IOS 6. iPhoto than prompted me that my library on the iMac needed to be upgraded. After attempting to upgrade the library I rec'd a message that the library could not be upgraded due to a permissions problem and I needed to mix the permissions first. Ok, how do I fix the permissions in iPhoto?
Also, now when I attempt to sync my iPad or iPhones I receive an message, "The iphone/iPad cannot be synced. An unknown error has occurred - 1140", - iTunes is unable to finish the sync. I believe this is related to iPhoto since iPhoto is not even being accessed during the sync.
Can anyone please help? Since the upgrade to IOS 6 and the update od iPhoto I am unable to sync iPhones or iPad.
Thanks,
Sal

I just started having the same problem. Unfortunately the suggested solution didn't help. I had to uncheck the "Sync Photos from iPhoto" option to get the sync to complete successfully. Looking more closely at the sync options, I realized that they had defaulted back to "sync all photos, events, etc" - which I definitely did not want. (Must have happened when I upgraded iTunes and upgraded to iOS 6.) But - and this was the real surprise - the option to sync only "selected albums etc" is greyed out. I can't select it, whether the overall sync checkbox is checked or not.

Lost all photos after iphoto latest iphoto update

I have just lost all my photos in iphoto after latest update. Anyone knows whats going on?
Over 3,000 photos for last 15 years and I am devastated not forgetting I relly on apple as I own most of their products.
I see a trend in apple updates, deleting of user data as similar thing happened with email when I updated to OSX Mountain Lion way back.
Apple should know not forget user data is more importnat than updates as there is no point owning a device that will not give me confort that my data is safe.

Hi Terence,
I installed iPhoto Library Manager, and it's a great program, however I am still having issues.
I discovered today in the Day One App, as well as Mail that the Photo Browser contains the missing photos, projects etc. See image below. I have no idea where these photos are kept and when I search for the name of a photo, the photo does not appear.
I clicked on Aperture and it would like me to Upgrade, and I'm not sure if I should, please advise.
Lastly in the iPhoto Library Manager, when I select add library and click on Aperture I get the messsage attached.
Do you have any insight on this. It looks like the photos are there, I just don't know where to look.
Thanks for your help!

Latest iPhoto Update Supports Nikon D300?!?

what the heck? a reader over at MacFixIt.com is reporting that the latest update to iPhoto includes support for the Nikon D300 RAW format. i will confirm this when i get home later tonight. the update to iPhoto does not bring support for the D300 to Aperture however.
ugh.
here's the link:
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20080206094730580

First, this is all nonofficial information people have cobbled together on their own - no offical Apple dates etc.. Unfortunately Apple doesn't say anything about anything unreleased so the users are forced to do this...
According to this article (http://www.hardmac.com/news/2008-01-24/#7656), the OS X 10.5.2 update beta does have support for the new Nikons.
When the OS X update is let out into the wild, your D300 RAWs should be recognized. Estimates on the non official boards that track the beta OS X updates are guestimating for a release in a couple of weeks (presuming nothing horrible pops up in the newer betas).
What you do if your running Tiger (OS X 10.4.x) has, like everything else, not been addressed by Apple. Hopefully Apple won't leave those users hanging...as there are not any reports of a 10.4.12 update...it makes you wonder what Apple will do.
This will be a continuing problem Apple will have every time a new DSLR is released (which is pretty much constantly), unless they change their processes for RAW def creation/distribution. This problem probably has to be recognized and considered important by someone higher than the Lightroom Program Manager (since the defs are in the OS, I'm guessing they're the OS X managers responsiblity) and my suspicion is that the overlord of OS X could care less about when these things get out.

My photos no longer print out in good quality since the latest iPhoto update to 9.5.1. This is happening with photos that have previously printed out at a large size with no problem.

Since the upgrade to the latest version of iPhoto the photos no longer print in good quality. They appear crisp and in good focus on the monitor, then when they go to the page where they get edited and printed from, they go blurry. This is happening with photos hat I have previously printed out in large format ith no problems. I have looked at Preferencces but don't see anything about setting photo quality. Any ideas??

At that size all you're getting is about 100-120 dpi. 300 dpi is considered most desireable for prints. Do you have a 4x6 print of the same photo made before you upgraded to 9.5.1 and Mavericks to compare with?

Latest iTunes update cannot see iPhone 4

I updated to the latest version of iTunes today after prompting from iTunes which advised there was a new update.
Following this I restarted my Windows PC, then opened up iTunes.
I then connected my iPhone 4 using the USB connector.
My PC recognised the device
The device was not seen in iTunes
The device would not sync.
I then removed iTunes and installed an old Nov 2013 (or previous version) one and my iPhone 4 will now sync correctly.
I am not too keen on updating the s/w until anyone else has advised me that I should retry.

Hy there,
In order for you to solve this problem you have to follow these stept if your running windows:
1'st step is to go into the device manager
2 step is to go to portable devices (it is rught under network adapters)
3 step is to right clic apple iphone and click update drivers
4 step is to brows your drivers from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers
After that your itunes will pump up alown and youl see your iphone right there.
Good luck and sry for my bad righting.

I tried to reboot - bad habit from windows era still no improvement...
how can I rollback to previous version of software?
or/ is there a solution to this problem

Is it all applications that these keys don't work?
Also is it a wired keyboard or bluetooth keyboard, either keyboard i'd suggest starting with resetting SMC (helps USB) and PRAM (helps Bluetooth)

After latest itunes update, cannot run itunes: get error MSVCR80.dll is missing. What to do?

Tried uninstalling all apple programs, and downloading and reinstalling itunes. But itunes did not install correctly, and it tells me to reinstall. And if I click on the itunes icon I again get the error message than MSVCR80.dll is missing. (This is on my Windows 7 machine.)

Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

I get the error The iphoto update cannot be installed.

It then says... The file “iLifeSlideshow_v2.pkg” couldn’t be found on the server “swcdn.apple.com”. What should I do?

Hi All
I have a mini mac (G4 PPC) bought second-hand last July. It came with iLife pre-installed and all the built in apps worked fine. Recently, I found the video ones refused to launch, but iPhoto and iTunes (which I use all the while) caused no problems.
Until now!
Although iTunes still appears to work, iPhoto has started crashing on launch as described by others here.
Like another respondant, I tried repairing disk privilages, etc to no avail. I then created an extra user (normally I'm sole user and adminstrator) and finally, starting at a vacant destop) tried running it again. This time it also crashed, but asked if I wanted to retry and than it suceeded with an empty library.
Having switched back to my normal account however, the same old problem re-occurs. Have also tried to opt/apple keys trick and it happlity rebuilt the various options. Then crashed again!
Has anyone got any more ideas? I need it working with my regular library.
I'd also like to get iMovie working to make some video podcasts and as part of iLife maybe the problems are related.
