New Iphoto wont open after downloading Yosemite

I updated my 2010 Macbook Pro with Yosemite. Then I downloaded the new Iphoto from the App Store. The new iphoto is completely unresponsive and my old iphoto has a white circle with a line through it. Help!

What version of iPhoto did you have? Probably you need to drag it to the trash and then install 9.6 - if you have iPhoto '08 or earlier you ned to download and un the iPhoto library updater before launching the new iPhoto

  • New Iphoto wont open after yosemite update

    Also posted in Iphoto for Mac Community
    I'm working on a MacBook (2009) and upgraded to Yosemite, which went smoothly.  I was prompted to upgrade iphoto so I went to the App Store and it downloaded, but it wont open. The application appears in the applications folder but when I double click, nothing happens.In the application folders it says it was created modified and last opened on Nov 12, but I have yet to open or use the application.
    I've tried restarting the machine, with no change.  I've restarted the App store with no change. When I check the purchases tab in the App store, or Launchpad, it says the download is "paused" for iphoto. I hit the "resume" button and nothing changes.  One time it changed from "paused" to "waiting" It was "waiting" for several hours until the computer went to sleep, it went back to paused. Any ideas on what to try next to get iphoto to work?
    thank you in advance!

    hi Dahveed
    since installing yosemite my iphoto is also not working. When I want to update it it gives the following message..
    "this update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled."
    Please advise
    thank you for your time

  • Iphoto wont open after download

    I downloaded this new Yosemite OS X or something and now my iPhoto is greyed out with an X telling me the app is not availble in the US yet???

    With MacOS X 10.10.3 you need iPhoto 9.6.1.
    Which version of iPhoto do you have installed? Did you buy it from the AppStore? If you have any version of iPhoto, that has been updated from the AppStore and is associated with your Apple ID, try to reinstall from the "Purchases" page. 
    Unhide iPhoto, if it is hidden on your Purchases page (See this link: Mac App Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases)
    Trash the incompatible iPhoto version, but don't empty the Trash.
    Reload your Purchases page at the App Store with ⌘R
    Then download from that page.

  • Safari wont open after downloading 'genieo', its taken over homepage on internet and only opens for 1 second before closing rapidly. deleted it but still cant open internet. please HELP!

    safari wont open since downloading 'genieo' stupidly, well by accident i just looked what it is up..... as needed to crop song quickly and must have been on that page/..., i moved it to trash and removed it everywhere i could see it but its still taken over safari and so web page closes after 1 second of opening so i cant use it. There are removal instructions etc online but i cant get online to do them! how can i sort this out if i cant use the internet and change my homepage etc? Will people at Apple store be able to do this for me?

    There are some instructions that take time with some attention to detail to attempt and also remove all parts of the genieo and other adware malware bad content that come with visiting or downloading a variety of web sites which may spread their ilk to those who unknowingly or unwittingly get downloads or install content that has been doctored with some untoward idea in mind. Some of the posers do this to disrupt or sell more dysfunctional cures to their created mischief. The cure (incl their uninstaller) may be as bad as the problem.

    http://www.thesafemac.com/tech-guides/
    Genieo is a specific issue and has a section in there.
    http://www.thesafemac.com/?s=genieo&submit=Search
    For general adware, a script (beta, if you try luck)
    is available but it may not touch genieo...
    •Adware Removal Tool (applescript)
    http://www.thesafemac.com/art/
    The browser issue is covered under one of the topic areas, as that may also include a re-direct device where an extra button or home page to junk keeps loading. Incorrect removal of the badware may cause Safari to fail. However, you can get use a different browser to get information such as visit the above site, or here, etc.
    I do not know if the techs or genius at Apple Store would be able to remove the problem. One way it to erase everything on the computer, and start all over, and lose all your stuff. You should have a backup of your created content on a drive external to your computer, in addition to TimeMachine backups, for restoration purposes; this done before an issue strikes. The methods of removal are covered in the linked pages above.
    Another way, as suggested in detail by Linc Davis, can be followed and perhaps resolve the issue, too; at some point this topic thread will be seen by more than a few people. This is not a new topic here.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • I tunes wont open after download says improperly installed

    i tunes wont open after install

    sorry to say but if that error is in place, there is only one way to fix it. By uninstalling the itunes and re-installing it back. It will not take that long since apple has done a great job managing the installation, there must have some missing components that was not recognized as installed.
    To ensure that your installation will be flawless, its a great way to close all windows and perhaps other applications running at the back, and wait a couple of minute until the installation is complete

  • Iphoto wont open after system upgrade and iLife install

    I installed Leopard and reallized i had to also buy iLife because the old version of iphoto was not supported by the the new operating system. Installed iLife and everything works exept iphoto. It acts as though it is "loading library" and then a pop-up window shows up saying:
    "The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iphoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previouse versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process may take several minutes depending on the number of photos in the library."
    I have hit "upgrade". But it still does not open.
    I have about 9000 photos saved on an external drive.
    I have repaired permissions as well as trashed iphoto and re-installed.
    I read similar posts and am tempted to create a new library with library photo manager but am affraid i will lose some of my pictures.
    I should include that because I couldn't open after the os update, I went into the my photo folders through finder and added new pix that I needed to get off of my camera. I've sinced trashed those folders.
    Any ideas?
    THanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Thanks for the heads up on the out of date screenshot of BatChmod. It's been updated now. If all you your efforts to get your library updated and running fail you might try rebuilding the library with iPhoto Library Manager. It creates a new library based on the data in the AlbumData.xml file and leaves your current library untouched. Here's how that would work:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be untouched for further attempts at fixing or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    Note: There's now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • How do I get iPhoto to work after downloading Yosemite?

    I downloaded Yosemite and ow my iPhoto won't open.  The popup message tells me to open my library with this version of iPhoto it first needs to be prepared. 
    Then it tells me to download iPhoto upgrader to be used with versions of iPhoto 7 or earlier???
    My version of iPhoto is 9.6.  Im not supposed to have to download the helper...but I can't figure this out

    What version Did you have? If you HAD iphoto '08 version 7.x.x or earlier then you must backup your iPhoto library and down and RUN the iPhoto library upgrade (it will be installed in the utilities folder in the Applications folder) and then launch iPhoto 9.6

    Thanks in advance

    Well I don't know what "tried everything possible" means!
    top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
    - turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    - last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

  • New Shuffle wont play after downloading Songs from Rhapsody

    I just bought the 2nd gen. shuffle and after loading songs from rhapsody, it show them on the IPOD list but the ipod wont play. It blinks green-orange-green- orange and then nothing. I tried reseting it. Any ideas?

    "Will Rhapsody work with iPod?
    iPods are not compatible with the Rhapsody To Go subscription service. You may, however, use the iPod to play tracks purchased on Rhapsody. Or view the MP3 players compatible with Rhapsody To Go."
    That is from their website, even though countless posts on these forums have said their files are not compatible. So who knows. If I couldn't get my music from rhapsody on my iPod, I personally woudn't be too surprised, it's protected music, and it's not meant for iTunes it's meant for Real player. It looks like it depends on if your music was subscription or not. You might also read this.

    I hope you figure out how to get it on your iPod though.

  • Ipad air google chrome wont open after downloading on the app store

    did all the right things anybody know a simple fix

    I found this post made by Dominic Feira and it helped me.
    After GarageBand has completed downloading and installing all of it's extras, remove the GarageBand preferences file and relaunch GarageBand.  This took care of it for me.
    To do this in the Finder:
    Select Go -> Go to Folder...
    Type: ~/Library/Preferences
    Locate the com.apple.garageband.plist file
    Move it to your desktop.
    Relaunch GarageBand.
    This should take care of this problem.
