Macbook air iphoto question

Hello all, I recently redid my entire computer and I am running os x 10.9.4 and for some reason I no longer have iphoto or my photostream.  I went into the cloud setting and it prompts saying I need to download an update. Can someone please tell me what I am missing here? I would at least, like to get my iphoto back up and running.
Thank you

  • Copying Macbook iPhoto '09 library to Macbook Air iPhoto '11

    Good evening,
    I was hoping somebody might be able to help me with a problem I am having with my new Macbook Air.
    I initially set up my laptop which automatically created a User Account\. I realise now that I should have used Migration Assistant before I set up my new laptop as this has now resulted in me having 2 User Accounts.
    I used Migration Assistant to copy all of the files from my old Macbook to my new Macbook Air.
    I can view all of the pictures that came across using Migration Assistant in the Temporary User Account but when I try and move them across to the User Account that I want to permenantly use, the photos become corrupt and I cannot view them all in iPhoto or Preview.
    I have tried putting the pictures onto a USB stick from my old computer and putting them onto my new laptop but this too doesn't work and the pictures are corrupt on one user account but not the other.
    Another interesting thing to note is that when I swap user accounts on my new Macbook Air, the pictures ARE NOT corrupt on that half, it is just when I move on to my actual user account on this laptop that they do not open.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!
    MAC OS X 10.8.4

    i have a time machine back up of my old imac. i have a external drive backup (mac. ext. journald) of my 09 iphoto library, 
    Assuming that these backs ups are good - and lets hope they are - pick one, restore it to the Pictures Folder on the new machine and launch iPhoto.
    Get iPhoto working. Then think about Aperture. You're making a simple procedure wildly complicated.

  • How to AirPlay from MacBook Air iPhoto?

    Anybody know how to reproduce a video that has been downloded from iPhone into iPhoto (MacBook Air) to Apple TV?
    I recently downloded all videos from my iPhone into my MacBook Air´s iPhoto to free space. When I played the videos on my iPhone, I was able to choose my Apple TV in order to whatch it on my TV.
    Now that I have the video on iPhoto, when I play it, Macbook Air does not give the option to reproduce it on Apple TV. Same goes for Youtube and other videos played on my MacBook Air.

    Mountain Lion (the next version of OS X) will have Apple TV mirroring built in.  Wait a couple months.

  • Macbook Air general question

    Ok, guys i have a question which sounds really ridiculous but as a new mac user, i cant stop thinking about it.
    Recently, i just bought my macbook air 13 inch.
    Yesterday, my wife was using it and she constantly used her fingers to drum around the area next to the trackpad and when she drums, she drums hard and i could hear her fingers hitting the aluminium body repeatedly.
    She also used her thumb to hit against the smooth aluminium edge on the area below the trackpad repeadtedly.
    My wife's really rough with my laptop and she did it for almost half the day. Is the Macbook Air's aluminim body able to withstand all these actions or will the trackpad and battery get damaged?
    Sorry for the stupid question and thank tou  for all your feedbacks/answers

    Unless you start denting the case, the internal components will be fine.  No hammers, please. 
    Ciao.
    The only time I dented a MBP is when I dropped a three foot 2" x 4" piece of wood on it.  (very stupid of me).

  • Ipad or Macbook air more questions

    I have an ipad and a iMac G5- intel core duo as host computer. We use airport extreme at home .
    I am considering the purchase of a new ipad 2 or a Macbook air
    My needs are mobility around the house as well as travel, place to up load photos during travel.
    We are retired and travel a good bit.
    My questions are Here:
    My questions for tomorrow night are:
    1. Will backup continue to be dependent on being tethered to the home computer? Will all software upgrades continue to be dependent to go through the host computer? If I have 2i pads where is the separate content (not photos) stored on the host computer.
    2. how would it work with cloud backup storage? any chance for time machine on the ipad?
    3. security issues unique to the ipad while using in public wifi areas?
    4. What is the possibility for the ipad to be scalable as technology changes. Are there functional differences in the apps for a Mac computer and the app store product for an ipad?
    5. Is there a disk utility on the ipad for usual housekeeping such as checking permissions and running a disk utility?

    The iPad will probably continue to need a host computer. But, anything could happen. Each iPad is recognized as unique by iTunes. Each one would have separate syncing preferences and back up.
    2. how would it work with cloud backup storage? any chance for time machine on the ipad?
    You'd need to see if the cloud storage option you're interested in has an iPad app. Dropbox, for instance does. However, cloud storage is not a subsititute for syncing your iPad to your computer. You can't really backup the iPad that way through something like Dropbox. Whether or not Apple ever enables something like Time Machine for the iPad, only Apple knows and they haven't said.
    3. security issues unique to the ipad while using in public wifi areas?
    None that I know of.
    4. What is the possibility for the ipad to be scalable as technology changes. Are there functional differences in the apps for a Mac computer and the app store product for an ipad?
    A Mac and an iPad use completely different OSs. The apps available for both reflect the differences in OS and hardware. You're going to have to look at the features of the apps in which your interested.
    5. Is there a disk utility on the ipad for usual housekeeping such as checking permissions and running a disk utility?
    Not necessary.

  • MacBook Air Flashing Question ? Mark Folder - Troubleshooting Help!

    I am trying to figure out a problem for a friend's Macbook Air. Not sure on the year it was manufactured, but it doesn't look to be but 2 or 3 years old. I have no clue what operating system she was running.
    The problem she is having is the flashing question mark folder. I have tried doing a safe boot, but when I hold down shift after powering it off and back on nothing happens. I have tried doing a PRAM reset, it chimes 3 times then goes back to the flashing question mark folder.
    The furthest I have gotten is holding down "alt/command" to see if the system preferences would pop up. But all I get is the option to select a wifi network. So that's something! Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this issue? I would like to have a bit more knowledge before I take it to the apple store. Has anyone ran into it asking for a wifi network instead of being able to boot it? Please advise. Thanks!

    On the bottom of the MBA should be a serial number.  Enter it here and post back the model/year information:

  • Installed new hdd in MacBook Air 2008, question folder and forbidden sign in screen, what to do?

    Hello
    I installed new hard drive to my MacBook Air 2008 and when I try to install lion/snow leopard/ mavericks it won't show up the disk. I can't find the hard drive.
    I don't now what to do. I tried everything. I spoke with a guy in macsupport here in Sweden and he said I have to buy snow leopard and install it from the original dvd in order for computer to format. My computer is old like I said its from 2008. I've never update it or upgrade. This is first time. It laid in storage for three years so I decide it to use it again but hdd was damaged so I had to change it, and now all I get is flashing question folder and forbidden sign, you know the sign for auto traffic.
    Is it true that the only way to restore or to find the new hdd or to boot the question mark and forbidden sign marks by installing osx from its original dvd or buy snow leopard?
    After I spoke with the guy from Mac support, I got little suspicious so I spoke to another one and he told me all I need to do is format hdd with the help of a sata hdd cable with help of another macbook and then I was good to go.
    What do u think?
    Should I buy snow leopard or can I burn it from my sister computer?

    I first would try Target Disk Mode to format and install an OSX on the new storage drive.

    You will need a OSX source that is compatible with the MBA.  If you have the original, use that.

  • All my MacBook Air iPhoto (9.5.1 on OSX 10.9.4) albums are missing; where have they gone?

    All my iPhoto (vs.9.5.1) albums (normal, smart and folders) are missing. On MacBook Air (2GB, 128GB SSD, OSX 10.9.4)
    Where have they gone, and how can I get them back?

    Give this a go:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete the contents the following folder:
    User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
    3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.

  • Hi there, my photos from Iphone wont upload onto Macbook Air Iphoto. It says it's loading but never does, Anyone have a solution?

    hi there, I am trying to upload my photos from my Iphone 5s to my Iphoto on my macbook air, but they wont load. \
    It says "loading" but it's not.... does anyone have a solution? Thanks in advance.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • MacBook Air related question (keychain) password !!!

    Does anyone know what the "local items" keychain is? I turned my MacBook Air on and got a message that some applications want to use it and I should enter the keychain password.

  • MacBook Air software question.

    hi how do i know if when i **bought** the macbook air was it the OS X Lion or it wasn't and the people in the store updated it?

    I'm a little confused. Did the people in the store show you the computer, demonstrate it for you, and sell you that one, rather than handing you a brand new one in a box?
    A brand new MBA right out of the box would have the software put on it by the "factory" not by the store. The store--we assume--wouldn't open any boxes of new machines and update them. The store, however, might have a demonstration model that was Snow Leopard rather than Lion.

  • Macbook Air hinges question

    just got the Decoded leather cover for my Macbook Air (which is just beautiful with no covers!)
    it got a leather and elastic straps that won't let the lid close completely (few mm gaps)
    asy idea if this would harm or loosen the lid hinges over time?

    A: it wont let the lid close , I can tell that by looking without you telling me that that is so.
    it can keep the unit from going into sleep because the magnetic reed switch isnt making contact with the magnet in the display to activate it.
    if there is any hinge torque when close due to the gap from squeezing it while closed at the opening point, there could be an issue, but that requires firsthand examination, which I cannot see.

  • Macbook Air resolution question - text not crisp

    I have the 13" Macbook Air (mid-2011 model). I found the text to generally be too small on the default resolution so I changed it from 1440x900 to 1280x800. Everything is bigger but the text actually looks slightly blurry and not nearly as crisp or sharp as before. Is this expected? How can i make everything bigger without losing the crispness??

    Yes indeed, I myself do not have one, but I got one for my wife, and she loves it. Last month I swapped out her hard drive for SSD and it is so much faster. What she loves is the ability to run Windows and Mac OS at the same time. She runs XP for her Lotus Notes for work, since she has so many programs that are windows only. But being able to run both at the same time and secondly, that the laptop is SO LIGHT, with incredible long battery life, gives her the ability to bringing it to work and go to meetings without dragging her down for weight. Nearly all the doctors at UC Davis Medical have MacBook Airs and iPads. They all are loving it.
    Next time you see somoene with a MacBook Air, just ask them, how do you like it.
    And the answer will always be the same. They love it.
    Don't take my word for it, ask the person. There are plenty of MacBook Airs to ask the person.
    Yes there is now compition and claiming that they are like a MacBook Air. The only problem is that they can only run Windows OS.
    That is where the Mac shines, it runs both. And just as fast

  • MacBook Air + iPhoto + External HD + iPad

    Because of the limited HD capacity on my MBA I have transferred my iPhoto Library to an External HD.  My question, which I haven't been able to resolve after browsing thru several Forums, is how can I view my iPhoto Library directly from my External HD on my iPad.  My local ARS said to wait for iCloud to come out, now that it's out I still don't see how. 
    I have overcome it by having a limited content in the iPhoto Library on my MBA which I can view on my iPad.
    Am I asking for something that is just not possible?

    No to date i still haven't found a way to resolve this.  it surprises me that more iPad / iPhoto Users haven't had this problem and that a solution hasn't been posted
