OS X Mavericks iPhoto not installing/updating, doesn't show in updates

After updating to os x mavericks I couldn't accessing iPhoto and when trying to update iPhoto suddenly vanished from the Updates section in the App Store. When I searched for the app the option to update changes between "Update" and "Installing". Has it updated? Is it installing? What is happening?
I am terrified I've lost all my photos! Advice would be much appreciated!

It's doing exactly what is says - installing.

HT1222 Will not install updates?

Do you think it is because I have MacKeeper?

Hi Drew,
I have no idea how they can get away with advertising MacKeeper at all.
I even avoid linking to sites that advertise it.
You really really need to uninstall it, but maybe not using their uninstaller.
Klaus1's great post on MacKeeper...

I can not install updates for Adobe 9 Pro

I can not install updates for Adobe 9 Pro

When you can not install the updates from the Help menu, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (similar for MAC) and install the updates in order. It is a good idea to download from the most recent back in case there are any you can skip (each updates indicates the prior version required). You generally need to reboot only after the last update.

Why are my fonts are not installing in ox6 it shows as exec?

Why are my fonts are not installing in ox6 it shows as exec?

Are you referring to an icon that looks like a monitor and has the word exec in green on it? If so, that's OS X's way of saying "I have no idea what this file is".
I'm guessing you're trying to use an incompete Type 1 PostScript font. Type 1 PostScript fonts are a set. One file is a suitcase containing all of the low res bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts. As an example, here's Adobe Garamond.
Adobe Garamond
AGarBol
AGarBolIta
AGarIta
AGarReg

The first file which I highlighted in green is the font suitcase of bitmap screen fonts. The rest are the outline printer fonts.
1) The files for a Type 1 PostScript font must have both the screen and printer fonts for a given set in order to work. They also must be in the same folder.
2) The suitcase of bitmap fonts will work alone, but output will be terrible since the system will print the fonts using the 72 dpi screen fonts in the suitcase if the outline portions are missing.
3) Having only the outline fonts will not work. You can see the fonts, but they will not load. That's not a problem with Font Book, Suitcase or other font manager. None of them, nor the system itself will load outline fonts from a Type 1 PostScript font without the matching suitcase of screen fonts present.

IPhoto Not Installed After Snow Update

Ok let me get all the questions out of the way.
- I installed family pack Snow on both my MBP & wifes MBP
- My MBP works great, all that is advertised
- The other MBP is running just the same, except it’s missing iPhoto
Yes that’s right iPhoto is not installed on this Mac. I’ve checked everywhere, I’ve even done a check disk, searched the web far and wide without anything coming back explaining why it’s not on there.
If anyone has an idea as to why iPhoto 09 is not installed please let me know.
Thanks ahead of time.

Thanks Larry, to answer your question no I did not delete it.
Quick history….. I bought this specific MBP with Tiger on it two days after Leopard was released. Called Apple they sent me a Leopard upgrade disc for free to install. Just recently I found out that the Hardrive in the MBP was failing causing issues (1yr of use), so I bought a new one replaced that. Instead of installing Tiger, then Leopard, then Snow, I worked around that by installing Leopard then Snow.
Is iLife (the full install) on the original Tiger disc that came with the MBP? How the poo do I install it now with Snow installed? Can I call Apple and see if they could send me an iLife 09 disc? Could this be why iPhoto is not appearing on my MBP?

HT201375 Has anyone found a solution to the "Mavericks will not install new fonts" Issue? Has apple even admitted it yet?

Question is simple enough, Oh and by the way, my system is NOT what this forum page has decided to tell me that it is (no way evident to change it).

Hi Arthur,
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
1. I am glad your Mavericks doesn't have the problem. I am sure there are a lot of Mavericks out there that don't have the problem, and yes, you are correct, I, along with ALL of the other people that are complaing of this problem all over the internet, including this support forum itself, are having problems with our own Mavericks installations.
2. Agreed, Apple doesn't have a good track record of admitting to the bugs in its Operationg Systems, but don't worry, Microsoft is just as bad. Technology is about making money after all.
3. Thanks for the instructions for updating my profile.
4. I took the precaution of removing all of my data from this machine. and wiped its harddrive.
I did a fresh install of Snow Leopard (the OS it came with), upgraded to Mountain Lion, and then upgraded to Mavericks before doing anything at all to the machine, and before installing anything on it.
So with this Fresh, brand new install of Mavericks (I dont trust upgrades - for good reason) I installed Open Office, Adobe Creative Suit CS6, Google Chrome, Filezilla, Firefox and Thunderbird, and Microsoft Remote Desktop client.
That's it.
The font that will not install is any of the fonts from the Univers family.
We have had this font in our office for the seven years I have worked there. It installs fine on all Macs from Tiger (10.4) to Mountain Lion (10.8) (I have just finished tesing this on a number of these machines).
We have one other mavericks machine but this font was already installed on it when it was upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks so it works.

This is a lot more information than has been provided by almost all of the other posts on all the forums I have been reading about this problem, and most of the posts have a lot of people chiming in saying,
"It works fine for me, so it must not be a problem".
Not a lot of help has been forthcoming for the others in this same situation that I have been reading of, and most are resorting to Third Party Programs in an attempt to get fonts installed, all with varying degrees of success.
I am not willing to use a third party program to do something the operationg system should be able to do itself.
I have tried pasting the fonts themselves into all of the various fonts folders in the OS, to no avail.
I will be very interested to hear what you make of the information I have supplied.
Thank you again for your reply. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Mavericks will not install on brand new Hard Drive

Trying to install Mavericks to a brand new internal 2TB Samsung SATA 3.0 HD on a 3-yr old 12 Core Mac Pro system that was running Mnt Lion just fine. After multiple failures upgrading the Mnt Lion disk to Mavericks. Decided to just use a brand spankin' new hard drive and do a clean install of Mavericks. Now during the install to the NEW DRIVE, getting error message "Mavericks cannot be installed." Then I reboot and try to force the continuation of the install, doing this repeatedly, and I sometimes get a error log instead of a just an error message. Error log says: Thread 34 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.root.high-priority. Then the 1st line listed under that is: 0 libsystem_platform.dylib 0x000000010fa5a06a _platform_memmove$VARIANT$Nehalem + 138. If anybody knows what any of that means?
Thanks.

Without the full listing of the trace I can't be sure, however it would look more like a bonafide logic board or memory error rather than the HD that's causing the problem. The low level drivers on Mavericks have obviously changed (otherwise it wouldn't be a different OS version) and possibly they're exposing a lack of performance in your memory. The actual Mavericks install may not be the problem, but rather being corrupted during installation. In the line you quoted, Nehalem is the Intel name for your CPU, the memmove operation failed (move blocks of memory contents from point A to point B) and they shared library containing this was in the system library....sort of critical stuff.
You could try the following:
Re-seat the RAM and try again.
Try an old OS installation and see if it succeeds (Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, etc)
Try an install to an external enclosure
If re-seating the RAM does the trick, then you're set.
If it doesn't, then install an older OS to see if they work OK. If older OSes work OK using the internal drive and you have after market memory in the system, it would imply to me that the memory probably isn't quite up to snuff and Mavericks is exposing it. If it's original memory then it should be OK.
If the older OSes now don't install correctly and it's giving similar problems try doing the install in an external enclosure. The point here being to try to move your data path off the internal SATA cable. If these install OK, try it with Mavericks. If any of these work it could be the SATA cable or I/O controllers on the logic board (SATA cable most likely). A good reference for these sorts of problems is:
Bad Hard Drive Signs and Symptoms
Possibly a last option, which I would think (or hope) would be rare, would be that the binary for Mavericks install got corrupt during download. You could also try some of the resets they have in the linked document above. They might work and it doesn't take any effort.
Good Luck

Upgraded to Mavericks, iPhoto won't update

I upgraded to Mavericks but iPhoto won't update. Receive this 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." I have only had one user name. I can't get into iPhoto and no update will work. Says I have version 9.3.2 of iPhoto even though I updated.

Did that and now there is no update for iPhoto. Go to the iPhoto app and it says accept and I do but then nothing happens. Have I lost all of my photos??

Why can I not install updates or upgrade to 8?

When I try to install updates, all I get is "Connecting to the update server" And when I "download" version 8, and then go to open firefox again, it is still version 7...

Hi crazytwin123-
There can be a number of reasons why the updates are not installing correctly. Here is a link to an article describing how you might fix the problem:
[[Software Update Failed]]
Hope that helps!

Down loaded Mavericks, will not install on my computer because it says "this hard drive is used for time machine back up".

Down loaded mavericks, it will not install on my computer because it says" this hard drive is used for time machine back up". So I used my old computer hard drive for back up and reloaded the program but it still says the first hard drive is being used.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Make sure you have selected your MacBook Pro's hard drive as the destination to install Mavericks. If so, you have the "Backups.backupdb" folder in the root level of your hard drive.
That's the folder used by Time Machine to store backups of your files, and the Mavericks installer understands that your internal hard disk is the Time Machine drive.
To fix this, open a Finder window, select the Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type:
Then, delete "Backups.backupdb", empty the Trash and run the Mavericks installer. Finally, install OS X Mavericks
