New used computer doesn't have iPhoto so can't transfer pictures from old computer without upgrading new one. Is there a way to download an older version of iPhoto?

I can't access any of my iPhoto pictures from my old computer since the new (used) computer I got doesn't have it. The new one is a newer version but the applestore only has the iLife 11 which would need me to upgrade. I'm not against upgrading I really just want to access these photos. I used an external harddrive to store the pictures from my old computer and am assuming that the only reason they're not showing up on the new one is because it doesn't have the applicatin (makes sense).
Is there a way to get an older version of iPhoto?
The pictures from iPhoto that are on the external harddrive will show up if i had to the application right? Will they show up on a newer version of iphoto even though they're originally from an older version?
Ahh sorry if this is confusing I'm just really frustrated at technology right now..../////

Is there a way to get an older version of iPhoto?
I suggest you don't do that. There is no guarantee it will work right with a more recent OS.
Install the correct version of iPhoto for the version of Mac OS X you are running. (Which is what?) The folks here will tell you how to get to the Library on the external drive when you provide more info about your computer.

  • Is there a way to download the older version of Pages 9 if you upgraded to the new one?

    Is there any way to download the older version of Pages (9) once you have updated to the newer Pages?

    If you’ve already purchased the new iWork apps in Mavericks, you can use this trick to get Pages 4.3. If you still have access to a Mac running Mountain Lion. It must be Mountain Lion or Lion. Snow Leopard won't work. If the iWork '09 apps are installed, compress them & delete the originals. Launch the Mac App Store & click on the 'install' buttons under the iWork apps. You will get a message that you can't install the new version on this Mac but it will offer to download the previous version for you. Voilá, you have the self-contained apps that you can copy to another Mac.

  • How can i transfer picture from old iPod to my computer

    how can i transfer picture from old iPod to my computer

    Are these pictures on your iPod no longer stored on your PC or in a backup somewhere?  If so, you'll need the help of third party software to assist you with the task of extracting the photos from your iPod to your PC.  Keep in mind that these synced photos are no longer in their full resolution, but instead are scaled down thumbnails of the original.
    If you stored these photos in full resolution, see this article for instructions on copying them from your iPod back to your PC.
    Use Disk Mode to copy photos from iPod
    Once the photos are on your PC again, you can configure them to sync to your iPhone.

  • Can't transfer files from old computer to new

    Hello, Bought a new MacBook Pro and have old pictures, files, apps and fonts on an old Powerbook.  Migration utility allows me to move entire files over, but would like to move only specific files. I remember once opening an old computer much like a hard drive and drag and dropping what I wanted. Any ideas.
    Thanks,
    Jamie Clements

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • Can I transfer pictures from my pc to a new mac via an ipod touch?

    Hiya
    So my new macbook pro is on it's way and i was trying to think of some easier file sharing from my old pc to my new mac than a thumbdrive back and fourth x amount of times.
    My Pc's wireless card burnt out or something like that happened that makes it impossible for the pc to connect to my wireless network unless i take it into a shop and pay x amount of dollars ha.(X this eliminates the possibility of my using dropbox or icloud to transfer files.
    So i was wondering if i could take a 3rd generation ipod touch, and download the pc's photos with itunes to the ipod then from the ipod to my mac with iphoto without losing quality?
    If theres any other ideas other than thumbdrives, and burning discs it'd be much appreciated
    Mainly i'd like to know if transferring files using my ipod touch would be a good idea or not? and if it could be done without losing quality.
    Thanks

  • How can I transfer playlists from old computer to new computer?

    I was using iTunes on a PC and finally threw in the towel and bought a new iMac. Got all my iTunes content transferred just fine. But, I can't figure out how to copy all my old playlists over. Can anyone help me with this?
    Thank you.

    Hello chaptx,
    First, you will need to export the playlists either to a flash drive, external hard drive, or back them up to a CD. You can do this by locating each playlist you wish to transfer to your new Mac, right->clicking on it and choosing the "Export" option or by going to the File drop down menu, choosing "Library" and then "Export Playlist" from there. From there, choose the location you wish to save the playlist to, whether it be a flash drive, external drive, etc.
    On your new mac, again, head to the File drop down menu and choose Library and then select "Import Playlist." Then navigate to wherever you have saved the playlist, whether it be on a flash drive, external hard drive, etc.
    Hope this helps.

  • I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8, and I need to download Adobe Digital Editions. Is there any way to download an earlier version so I don't have to upgrade my system?

    I am using Mac OS X 10.6.8, and I need to download Adobe Digital Editions. Is there any way to download an earlier version so I don't have to upgrade my system?

    OT,
    I have the exact same question as heathy32 (I just want to get a photobook ordered, but I'm currently running iPhoto 7.1.5 with OS X 10.6.8 and discovered right at the end of the process of making this photobook that it's no longer supported with the versions I have) but I just wanted to check something with you before I proceed with the iLife 11 disk...
    Namely: do I need download the iPhoto Library Upgrader first?
    There seem to be issues discussed in other forums about the Upgrader, I want to make sure I don't do something like downloading it if that isn't strictly necessary.
    I am perfectly happy just to install iPhoto 9 and upgrade to 9.2.3 using the updater you link to, just so long as I can get a photo book printed!
    Once that is safely out of the way, I intend to upgrade to Maverick etc.
    Your thoughts very welcome
    Thank you.

    This is really difficult to the point of not really worth it.
    Keep the old TM backups in archive.. and start afresh on the TC.
    Time Machine has a different way of backing up on Network drives cf Local drives.
    Pondini does have a method to do it... but I would not recommend it.

  • Best way to transfer files from old Macbook Pro to new one?

    I just got a new Macbook Pro from Apple...YEEEEAAAHHHH! 
    So....
    What's the best way to transfer files from old Macbook Pro to new one?  I know Migration assistant, but is there a recommended way?  I don't want to put do a system restore or transfer everything from the old laptop, but I do want to move important things like photos, music, documents and such over.  Any suggestions on best way to do this?
    Another question, perhaps subquestion.  If I have, say, an older version of iPhoto but a newer version of one on my new Macbook Pro, will it still transfer photos no problem?
    Just looking for hints from the experts so this puppy is set up in the best way possible.

    Just one comment on this:
    ‘If I have, say, an older version of iPhoto but a newer version of one on my new Macbook Pro, will it still transfer photos no problem?’
    the problems are ALWAYS in the reverse way, when you have the newest (or a newer) version of a given app, and wish to transfer its library to an older version.
    Otherwise, see the link to Pondini.
    I have been using Martin Jahn’s iBackup, with which I have become accustomed and works fine. It also makes daily backups. Its advantage over other apps is that you may add whatever you wish to save, beside its default settings (which you may delete or cancel, of course, even if not recommended); it also has a friendly interface and easily customizable. Of course, this is a personal view, you may try other methods as well, or other backup apps. All are good if you are satisfied and correspond to your needs.

  • Can not transfer pictures from iPhoto on my MacBook Air to any of my devices via airdrop.

    Can not transfer pictures from iPhoto on my MacBook Air to any of my devices via airdrop.
    I have a new iPad Air 2 and a iPhone 5 all running the newest updates and IOS,OS X.
    I can airdrop from my iPhone to iPad and vice versa.  But iPhoto on my macbook air does not give me the option via share to airdrop any of my pictures to my phone or ipad.

    My MacBook air is a mid 2012. When I go to finder then airdrop it shows me
    my iPad and my iPhone but when I go to iPhoto on my MacBook air it doesn't
    give me the option to airdrop pictures to them. Not sure why.

    How can I transfer files from my computer to my I Pad?

    Try a conduit such as Dropbox.
    Goodreader or Documents to Go also have helper apps that allow transfers.
    Goodreader is particularly good in that it has a integal file tree and you can mount your computers harddrive and navigate directly on your ipad.
    Use the open with to view/move files into other apps.
