My mac says that iPhoto is installing, when it isn't

Hi All - my macbook pro - which I recently updated to Mavericks, says my iPhoto is installing - when it clearly isn't. I can't access my photos. Can anyone please help?
Thanks

I tried that - it didn't work.
But what I noticed is that in the App store - if I look under 'Purchased' it shows that iPhoto's installation was 'Paused'. But when I clicked to restart downloading, it just says 'Waiting' - but goes no further.
Would another download of the Operating System help?

  • Application Manager says Acrobat X is installed when it isn't.

    I had CS5.5 installed on my Mac, and then I also installed CS6 via the Creative Cloud and Adobe Application Manger to try it out. After deciding to sign up to the CC license, I used the Adobe uninstaller to delete CS5.5. That went smoothly, but now Acrobat X is gone (as it should be after running the CS 5.5 uninstaller) and the new Adobe Application Manager says that Acrobat Pro X is INSTALLED. I can't seem to find a way to reset AAM and get it to recognize that Acrobat is actually now uninstalled and install it again.
    Any thoughts and help on the matter would be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Mac says usb stick is full when it isn't

    I'm trying to copy files to a usb stick but my mac keeps telling me the stick is full, even when I know it isn't. Deleting other files on the usb stick doesn't help at all. I've tried a few different sticks - sometimes I can get it to work but eventually it decides the usb stick is full even when it isn't and even if I delete all the other data off it, and then it won't copy.

    Hi and welcome to  Discussions.
    Just remember, after you delete something you'll need to empty the trash to recover the space, and for the USB stick it will need to be attached whilst that recovery takes place.

  • Nano 2G says that hold is on when it isn't

    When i connect my Ipod to my computer, the screen on the iPod comes on and the symbol that shows the hold switch being on is there. The hold switch isn't on. As a result, I pretty much can't do anything with my iPod. Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks
    Toshiba   Windows XP  

    that happened to me on my 2g nano. Its like the hold switch lags sometimes. What i did was jingle the switch on and off, and if that didnt work id keep it on hold posistion for a while and try again and itd work. if it doesnt try resetting or restoring your ipod, i never needed to, if that doesnt work then you might have to get it repaired.
    hope i can help

    i have a problem installing itunes (10.7)....it says that i've installed itunes successfully but when I click on the shortcut, a popup box states that "Itunes have stopped working and asks me to either search via windows for solution or close program"

    Yes, you should be on Quicktime version 7.7. by now. Have you ever used Software Update?

    I'm trying to get youmail. It says that it's installed but there is no app for it. When I try to get an app it tells me that it cannot connect to itunes.

    Yes, according to my information that was the model number for what you have. If you aren't sure then open Systemp Profiler and look for the model identifier in the display on the right. Following are the identifiers:
    5,2
    6,1 (this is the Late 2009; it is model number A1342)
    This should provide all you need to pick the correct item.

  • I want to install viber in my ipod 3g,but it say that it will install on only ios 7.0...and my ipod has ios 5.1.1.... w

    i have ipod 3rd generation..32 gb...ios 5.1.1..
    when i want to install it say that unable to install it will install on ios 7.0 or later..
    please help me what i do??

    Since the iPhone 3G will only run iOS up to 4.2.1, if these apps require a higher iOS level, there is nothing that you can do.
    There should be some dictionary apps in the App store that will run on iOS 4.2.1.

  • My phone is saying No SIM card installed, when I clearly have my SIM inserted?

    My phone is saying No SIM card installed, when I clearly have my SIM inserted. I can't make or receive calls. What can I do to fix this?

    Did you already try to remove it and put it back again?
    When changing the SIM card, power off the device prior to opening the SIM tray. After you have changed the SIM card for your iPhone you may need to reconnect it to iTunes.
    iPhone keeps a record of previously inserted SIM cards, but if the carrier name of your SIM does not show up in the status bar after you changed the SIM you will need to reconnect iPhone to iTunes. If you do not connect iPhone to iTunes after changing or reinserting the SIM, iPhone may not work as expected.
    If iPhone does not work with the SIM card after connecting to iTunes, you might need to restore your iPhone. Consult the iPhone User's Guide for more information on iTunes and iPhone.
    If your iPhone does not show up in iTunes (on the left hand side of the iTunes window under Devices), please see the following links for assistance:
    iPhone: Not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    iPhone: Not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2309 About swapping SIM cards
    If this does not work, contact your provider, maybe your SIM is damaged.

  • Why does my cellphone keep saying that estimating time remaining when I try to upgrade the system?

    Why does my cellphone keep saying that "estimating time remaining" when I try to upgrade the system?
    Is there anyway to fix this situation?

    Hi Eric_Sun,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    You may want to update your iPhone using iTunes on a computer if your device only shows "estimating time remaining" when you try to update wirelessly:
    If you can’t update wirelessly, or if you want to update with iTunes, follow these steps:
    If you use your device's Personal Hotspot for your computer's Internet connection, update your device wirelessly or connect your computer to another network.
    Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
    Plug in your device to your computer.
    In iTunes, select your device.
    In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
    Click Download and Update.
    If you see an error message while updating your device, you can learn how to resolve iOS update errors in iTunes.
