Lost my iPhoto program/will not open

I am unable to open my iPhoto-any suggestions?

Try to open it holding down the Command+Option key, hopefully you'll get to a screen that allows you to rebuild the database. Tick the boxes and hopefully it'll then launch.

  • My iphoto program will not open, I get a message "you have previously used a newer version" open with that

    my iphoto program will not open I get a message "you have used a newer program in the past use that program"  I only have the one ???

    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. .

  • I have a Mac running OS 10.5.8. I downloaded Firefox 4 and not the program will not open at all. I am also unable to download the previous version that was running fine. I'm using Safari to contact you.

    I have a Mac G5 running OS 10.5.8. I downloaded Firefox 4 and now the program will not open at all. I get an error message that reads --
    "You cannot open the application 'Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture."
    I am also unable to find a link to download the previous version (3.6) that was running fine. (I'm using Safari to contact you.)

    Same proble here, although the Firefox system requirements says it is OK to have PowerPC G3 G4 or G5 ( I have G5 2GHZ)
    My solution; very simply use timemachine to restore the previous Frefox 3.x
    worked great in 3 mns

  • My adobe CS2 programs will not open on my macbook pro osx 10.5.8

    Today my adobe cs2 suite programs will not open.  They were working just fine a couple of days ago.  And they have worked fine for years.  I did not update to any new os that would cause them not to work.  I really need to get some image work done soon and this is a real monkey wrench in my plans.  I uninstalled everything and tried to reinstall from the disc and it would not let me do that either.  I tried to download picasa just as a quick alternative to get some images edited tonight and it would not let me open that either, even though it said it was good for 10.5 or above.  So the only thing I can think of is that I downloaded something that changed some settings? 

    Try http://www.lemkesoft.com/ GraphicConverter instead.
    Mackeeper can also be a problem:

  • Programs will not open from Dock

    I have updated my Macbook Pro with Yosemite which has led to - a lot. Programs will not open from Dock, they are just revealed in Finder. Scrolling with mousebuttons in a browser will zoom instead of scroll, the courser will not change after changing tool in Indesign. Just to mention a few problems i have discovered so far. I think I was an idiot to uppgrade to Yosemite. PLEASE HELP!

    Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions, then quit DU and Restart the MBP.  If that does not clear the issues, restart again holding the Command and R keys, and from Utilities on the menu bar select Install Mac OS X.  That will reinstall Yosemite but leave your content and settings intact.  See if that repairs whatever is broken.

    I Just bought iMovie for yosmite and the program will not open.. I will like a fix or a refund.. i am getting tired of these problems...

    Welcome to the world of downloaded software. There are no refunds.
    Back in the good old days when software was purchased on disk one could sell it (legally).
    Please describe your problem.  Give us some details to go from.   Are you using iMovie 06, or something newer?

  • TS2518 updated to Aperture 3.4, but program will not open, keeps telling me it needs to restore windows?

    I just updated to OS X 10.7.5 and Aperture 3.4, but program will not open, keeps telling me I to restore windows

    Quit Aperture, if it is running/ hanging.
    Remove the file com.apple.Aperture.plist from the folder
    Your home folder  > Library > Preferences
    The User Library is hidden by default. You can reveal it from the Finder's "GO" menu:
    Finder > Go,   then hold down the options ⌥ key, until the Library appears in the drop-down menu, select it and open the Library folder. Then go to the "Preferences" sub folder and remove the file
    your Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Aperture.plist.
    After removing the user preferences file, you will have to reset the Preferences, you selected in Aperture's preferences panel.

  • 7515 Program will not open

    I have an HP 7515 All-in-One printer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the operating programs on my Dell XPS 8700 Win7 Pro several times and it says everything is working the way it should but when I click on the desktop icon, the program will not open. I need to print an address on an envelope so I need to get into this program. Any suggestions?

    Hello DavidBez,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I'd like to help get your Photosmart 7515 up and printing from your computer. I am not aware of an area in the printer software that is installed on the computer's Desktop that allows you to print an envelope, but I hope this helps get the icon working again.
    HP Printer Assistant Opens the 'Printer Setup & Software' Window<---
    If the above fails to resolve the issue with the software, run the Print and Scan Dr and let me know its results.
    Cheers,

  • HT5037 I installed the iphoto library upgrader and iphoto still will not open

    I installed the iphoto library upgrader and iphoto still will not open. can anyone solve this?

    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. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    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.

    The next time the crash happens, note the date and time the problem occurred, then go to Applications/Utilities/Console and copy the log starting at the time of the crash. Paste the log in a reply. Please do not use a screen shot as they can be hard to read. If there are repeated runs of the same messages, please post only one run.
