Lost iphoto, cant install again

I have lost iphoto, it is no where to be found and some kind soul from here advised me to reinstall. I cant. Help, please
Heres what I tried:
Installation disk 1- it restarts as it should. Then I get a window that says welcome to Mac 0s x. There are a variety of choices including "read before you install and also install mac os x". I click on that one. Then I go around again with the restart and the exact same list of choices.
On disk 2 I select the additional application pkg, get an installation window and select the HD as my destination. Then I get the following msg
A newer version of Additional Applications (version 1.0.0.6.547) already exists on the volume HD
This software does not allow older versions to be installed on top of newer versions
so I Cancel
Since I am wondering where the additional applications are I ask the FIND to locate them for me. Apparently there arent any because FInd cant find them.
I am wondering exactly what my problem is and do I need professional help.
I tried the disk utility program to verify and repair permissions and got 200 pages of information (example :Permissions differ on ./Applications/Internet Explorer.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/Help/Images/Icon_folder.gif, should be -rw-rw-r-- , they are -rwxrwxrwx
Owner and group corrected on ./Applications/Internet )
Thanks for any assistance, I like iphoto and want it back

Thank you silly rabbit but I still have trouble. I did install Pacifist and everything looked fine BUT There is an Iphoto icon in my hd/ applications and it says its an application(as opposed to folder,document). When I click on it it looks like it is open just for a couple of seconds i see the rainbow spinner then switches back to finder or the open application.
I threw it all out (Pacifist) and emptied the trash. I restarted and installed it again. Then I installed IPhoto again. Looks good, its in the applications and clicking on it brings it up to appear to be an open application. I see edit (rotate, arrange photos, set title, etc.)
I connect camera Iphoto opens, looks good
tell it to import photos and it quits there was a msg but I didnt get it
I undid the camera and shut down and restarted.Iphoto flashes in the finder then nothing
iphoto is in application folder--i checked -but when I click on it it just flashes again and goes right back to finder
Now I install Panther (10.3.9) figuring it will install IPhoto since nothing else did. Here"s what happened:
click on iphoto and it asks if I want iphoto to open when I attach the camera YES
attach camera------nothing detach
attach camera iphoto opens
click on import
iphoto unexpectedly quits detach camera
attachc camera iphoto opens
click on import
iphoto unexpectedly quits detach camera
Can someoone give me some idea of what I should do??

Deleted Safari.app - cant install again

Hi.
I have a time ago downloaded the Safari 4 developer preview.
Anyways, i got tired of it and i wanted to switch back to 3.2, or whatever is the newest product version. Well, as with any other uninstall i thought i'd just have to drag the .app into the trashcan.
Well, i did this and it went fine, and i emptied the trashcan and it went fine and stuff like that.
When i then tried to install Safari 3.2 it said that a newer version of Safari was already installed. Then i browsed around for a time and found out that i had to delete a folder inside ~user/library called Safari.
I did this, but it will still not install.
I went into the Disc Utility and repaired and controlled the Disc permission things you know.
Really hope ya can help, getting sick of firefox's inability to read RSS and its weird.. Look!
Thanks in advance!

Have a look at this thread for how to obtain Safari 4. I haven't tried it, so I can't vouch for whether the download is still accessible.
If you get the dmg file, install Safari 4 again. Then, uninstall it using the provided uninstaller. That will take you back to the last version of Safari used in your system prior to Safari 4.

Hello! I have Photoshop CS5, a Mac OS X 10.6.8. I put my programma CS5 direct in the trash...:( Now I cant install again de software.it comes a window with "Your CS5 is damaged... Now I ask you please if I can restores this damage? and how? Thank y

Could you help me please with this issue?

I don't do Macs, but don't you have a restore option wit the trash can? Otherwise I expect you are going to need to reinstall

It may well think it is still activated, but if not, you are going to have to phone customer support and explain what happened, and they will reset your activation.

Iphoto wont open and cant install of app install disc

2 days ago iphoto came up as damaged or incomplete when pressed.
I followed the instructions of here to remove the iphoto pkg files but still could not install iphoto again.
The disc that came with my mac just fails to install at the end,.
I really hope i havent lost my photos as there from years ago!!!
PLEASE HELP!!!!

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

i have iphoto previously installed. running but when i have synced my iphone4 the iphoto app. cant be launched anymore. a black screen with the hourglass running till it quits automatically. What should be the problem???

Try the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your HD/User/Home/() Library/Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your HD/User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
Fix #2
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.

Hi, I have a new laptop and would like to syncronise my iphone with iTunes (which I have installed again). But my old laptop has died so I could not transfer any media files, etc. Can I simply connect my iPhone to the laptop without any data being lost?

Lost iphoto after reinstall, dont have ilife and cant find in appstore?

I did a complete reinstall and clear on my macbook pro, I lost iphoto and garageband all those things that come with ilife. It did intiially come for free with my laptop, I read that if I go into the app store and just accept thse things I can get it back. Not true for me, I go in, log in, and they say accept but dont download or install. What are my options? I basically just want my iphoto back..

Well, mymacbook pro didnt come with any restore disks. its just got that , osx reinstall that you get from the net when you restart the computer holding down i think it was command r. the original source for me, was when i bought it, it just came with it.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

i cant installing iphoto .. it`s says iPhoto can't be installed on Macintosh HD because Mac OS X version 10.7.5 or later is required. and mine is 10.6.8 ... what can i do ?

You have two possibilities:
1. Keep Snow Leopard and your actual iPhoto.
2. Upgrade OS X.
If you want to upgrade OS X to get the most recent iPhoto, you can upgrade to OS X Lion or Mountain Lion. We are going to choose the most recent, Mountain Lion.
First, check if your Mac is supported > http://www.apple.com/osx/specs If it's supported, make a Time Machine backup and/or a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion. The installer will download and it will appear when the download finishes, so you have to follow the steps to upgrade OS X. See if your programs are supported > http://www.roaringapps.com
If your Mac isn't compatible, see if you can run OS X Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4949 If you can run Lion, call Apple to purchase Lion > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

I've downloaded osx lion but cant install, it says cannot verify maybe corrupted or tampered during download. And I try to download again but it can't. No more download menu. It just appear " installed"

Can't believe no one tried to help you. If it is saying it's installed, have you tried to reboot while holding CMD and R together? it'll take you to the partition of Lion that has the install information, try re installing your os after verifying the disk in disk utility (also available after hitting cmd R). Instead of a disk, Lion makes a partition in your main HDD/SSD. The idea is you'll never have to boot from your original CD again.

Have you already made two activations before you lost your laptop? You need to contact support directly for activation/deactivation and other installation issues. It is usually possible to get it fixed right away by starting an on-line chat whenever an agent is free.

HT204266 I lost iphoto while doing an erase and reload, I just had to buy it again?

Hi
While doing a 'wipe and reload' as advised by a genius at Southampton Store, I managed to lose a whole raft of stuff because my back up to time capsule decided it didnt want to let me restore. I have recovered most of the stuff but seem to have lost iphoto. It was very important to me so I went online and bought it again.   I believe that as I had it already, that I should have been able to reload it without paying. Is there any way I can obtain a refund please?
Next question:   all the same applies to iWeb as well and I am trying to find it online, but the Apple site seems to have everything related to iWeb but not the actual program.
I really do need to recover these two programs.   I have iphoto (big relief) and just would like to get my pennies back, and I believe it is probably only my own lack of knowledge that is preventing me from finding iWeb to download. Previous advice gratefully received told me not to download from any other sites, so that is a rule I am following.
Any advice most gratefully received please
Many thanks
Steve

You did not initially purchase it. Pre-order in iTunes means that they are reserving the content for you at that price. The link below is an article on how pre-orders work with iTunes. When you pre- order an album in iTunes it just means its reserving it at that price, since the price may change. When the album is available and released, iTunes will automatically download it should you have enough store credit on the account or a valid credit card on the account.
