My i photo tells me to update software, but my software is fully updated but i photo still will not open?

HI All,
hopefully some one can help me with this one- its driving me crazy!
I have a Mac desktop computer. When i click on my i photo icon, it tells me to update software and will not let me go into i photo or see any of my pictures. However i have tried numerous times to update my software and it tells me im fully up to date- nothing to update. but still will not let me into i photo as apparently i need to update! So i am unable to get access to my i photo photos.
i am on max os x version 10.6.8.
Any ideas?!
Thanks

You could try rebuilding the iPhoto library by launching iPhoto whilst holding down the Command+Option/alt keys:

Hi Robin,
Can you update to the latest version? Also, do you have Java SE6 installed on your computer?
Thanks,

If you want us to be able to help, we will need a little bit more information.
What exactly happens, when you try?
Do you get an error message, if yes, what is the message?
Does Aperture hang or crash? If it is crashing, post the crash log here - copy and paste the first 60 lines of the crash log into your post, not a screenshot please.

I updated my face book app on my iphone 4 and now it will not open, even after i rebooted the phone. help???

I updated my facebok app after the app store said that it needed to be updated and ow the app wont load when I try to open it. I have tried to install and reinstall the app and I have also rebooted the phone several times with no results

try settings>general>reset>reset network settings, i mean this sounds like its a facebook issue its self and that you would have to wait for another update, they were probably getting prepped for ios 6 and somehow this one got out for an update, they are usually pretty good about getting updates out.

Just updated iTunes to 10.7 on Windows 7 64 ultimate. Application will not open at all.

Hey all. I just got a new iPhone 4. I was thinking I'd plug it into my computer and start dumping some music onto it, but I made the mistake of updating iTunes first. I don't even know how to begin troubleshooting this; the program doesn't even open when clicked. iTunes used to work on this computer until I updated. I tried reinstalling the udpate again, directly from the apple website this time instead of using apple updater to see if that fixed it. No change. What should I do?

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

I am trying to open iPhoto 9.3.2 on my iMac with OSX 10.7.4 and even after downloading the iPhoto updater it still will not open. Any suggestions.

In Mac os 10.5.8 firefox will not open at all. Updated latest version, used time machine to get back to older version and still will not open. Have to force quit with message Firefox not responding

Crash reporter fails as well. Says report cannot be forwarded to Apple.

Hey kbroch,
Have you tried starting Firefox in Safe Mode? Hold down "shift" while Firefox is starting up. If the crash doesn't happen in Safe Mode, you should read [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]].
There is also a lot of useful stuff in the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Firefox-not-start Firefox won't start] Knowledge Base article. If you've recently upgraded, you might want to check out [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_firefox-crashes-when-i-start-it this article] as well.
Hopefully this helps!

When i try to open firefox it tells me windows cannot access the specified device, path or file, you may not have the apperioate permission to open the item. I have tried to uninstall and re install and it still will not open.

this happened when i downloaded the latest patch and i have not been able to access it since.

I would expect wording related to connection, but see

Freehand can't convert EPS files into editable vectors. I
usually run
EPS files through Illustrator and then into Frehand. If you
don't have
Illustrator you can convert the EPS into a PDF and that
Freehand will
sometimes convert into editable vectors (though it does
involve a lot
more clean up than going through Illustrator.)

Mail Application will not open after 10.6.8 update

So, I'm currently trying to update my parent's computer and in the process of updating their Mail application it has become unusable. My computer at home (not my parents computer) ran into the same problem before I updated to Lion and deleting the preferences for Mail solved it. Plus, I have read previous posts about this similar problem and a typical troubleshooting solution was to delete the Mail preferences.
After all of my software updates (Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.8) and deleting the preferences for Mail, I still receive the same error message when trying to open the application. "Mail can't be used on this version of mac OS X. Try opening the version of Mail located in the Applications foler on your computer." My applications folder has not been adjusted, edited or even touched from it's original state in the dock/home folder.
I contacted AppleCare support and they advised me to reformat my computer. I think that's a little... unneccesary?? It's just Mail that isn't working. The rest of the applications (e.g. Safari, Address Book, iPhoto, etc.) open just fine.
Anyway, do you have any advice or insight to my problem here?
Much appreciated! Thanks!

After a second call to AppleCare, they had advised me differently than before. Once they found out that my personal computer has Mac OS X Lion installed from the App Store, they suggested I simply upgrade my parents computer to Lion.
So, I used my download from the App Store and upgraded. It went smoothly, but Mail still will not open properly. And instead of the original error message, it comes up with this:
"Check with your developer to make sure Mail can work with your version of Mac OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Check if there are any updates available for the application."
How can I re-install just Mail? A startup disk is not accessible for me right now. Can I download the latest version of Mail and install it from the Apple.com website?

I've just updated firefox and now it will not open at all. Please help!

I use gmail and a couple of days ago I started having trouble accessing it and in fact any google related site. Apparently my version of firefox was not supported so I updated to the current version this morning but then found that firefox would not open at all. There are no error messages. I have tried restoring my settings to those of yesterday but although my system says I have returned to the old version 3.5.15 it still will not open. I can now only access the internet by using an ancient version of Microsoft Internet Explorer - which is also not supported by gmail. Although I'm limping on I could really do with some help!!

Perhaps give one of the following documents a try:

Bridge will not open after Mac OSX update

Hi, I updated to Mac OSX 10.9.5 yesterday, and now Bridge CC will not open. What should I do?

I'm not familiar with Lr, not having used it since trying it and thoroughly hating it when I tried when it first came out, but… I'm not quite clear what you mean by "open in Bridge".
Bridge doesn't "open" anything, so I suspect you mean open in Adobe Camera Raw hosted by Bridge. Bridge is just a file browser, and as such it doesn't open, edit, manipulate or save anything; it just hands the file(s) to the appropriate application, whether that be Photoshop, Adobe Camera Raw (ACR), Adobe Illustrator, InDesign or even something like MS Word.
Perhaps you need to re-establish the file association at the OS X level. What happens when you bypass Lr altogether and just double-click on a raw file in the Finder?

Missing iphoto photos/ window will not open?

While working with downloading photos from a CD, I dragged some files from my hard drive Pictures Icon into the trash. When I tried to open iPhoto again, the wheel just spins and iPhoto will not open. I went back to "Pictures help" and read that items should not be moved from "Pictures." because it may affect iPhoto!!! I dragged everything from Picturers back out of the trash and back into the Pictures window. iPhoto still will not open. What can I do now to open iPhoto?

Start iPhoto while holding the shift+option keys until you're prompted to confirm your intention to rebuild the database. Click "Yes", the click "Save". Give it a few minutes.

Updated Facebook via the Apps store. Icon is "grayed" and will not open. It also will not let me delete, to download again. Anyone have this problem?

Updated Facebook via the apps store. Now, icon is "grayed" & will not open, nor will it let me delete it, so I can re-download. Has anyone had this problem?

Do you have another disk or Mac connected that has Pages '09 from the Mac App Store installed? If so, the MAS will "see" it & will report it as installed. Unmount any & all drives, including Time Machine backups, that might have Pages '09 on them & then relaunch the MAS & see if you can download it.

You have updated the app to a version that is not compatible with your iphone.

You should check compatibiity before updating your apps.
