Problem downloading iPhoto after i restore my OS X

how come i can't seems to down load iPhoto after i restore my OS X

With no information to go on: wild guess:
Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

Problem downloading Ipod software during restore

Hello everyone,
My iPod has had a flakey connection to iTunes, so I decided to restore my mini to factory settings.
All seemed to be going well until I hit the "Restore" button, which brings up a pop-up message "There was a problem downloading the iPod software for the iPod. The requested resource was not found".
Does that mean the software wasn't found or my iPod wasn't found? Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Hi again,
No luck I'm afraid. I followed the instructions on the link you provided.
Having run chkdsk, there were no problems.
I navigated down to the iTunes subdirectory, but I don't have anything called "iPod software updates". I did a search on my Documents & Settings with no luck. I've checked that I have enabled viewing of system folders under my folder settings.
All I can see are the following files;
CD Info.cidb
iTunes.pref
iTunesPrefs.xml
and I have an empty directory called iTunes Plug-ins.
In the iTunes sub-directory from 'All Users', all I can see is a file called iPodDevices.xml
I don't know if there's an error in the webpage you ent me, but I do have a directory called 'iPod Updater 2005-06-26' in my Program Files/iPod subdirectory. This contains the following files;
Acknowledgements.rtf
iPod Help.chm
iPod Updater 2005-06-26.exe
iPodUpdaterExt.dll
Readme.doc
StMp3Rec.inf
StMp3Rec.sys
StMp3Recnt.cat
Should I do anything with these?
As a furhter troubleshoot, I've borrowed a friends iPod Nano and connected it to my Itunes okay using my cable, so I know it's an issue with my iPod - any other ideas?
Thanks again for your help,

Problems with iPhoto after Maverick installation

After 'free' :-) installation of Mavericks, iPhoto doesn't work...
When I take a look in the App Store I recognized
that It isn't possible to update my Version of iPhoto..?
I bought iPhoto two years ago and I'll not buy it again - the same programm.
I need help!
Chris

This is the current message:
The Photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Problem accessing iPhoto after Upgrade to Yosemite

After upgrading to Yosemite on my MacBook , the result I get when trying to open iPhoto, which I use a lot , is : our photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete.
What does "not readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade " ? Am I not going to access my photos ?

Thank you Niel but I just found out that my back up to my Passport for Mac is not the same as before and am having problems with it .
I go to settings, select time machine , turn it on and it starts backing up .
Now it is asking me to choose between My passport for Mac and Other airport time capsule .
When I choose My passport for Mac , it gives me the choice : REMOVE DISK or Cancel .
If I choose the other one , it gives me the choice : SET UP or cancel .
I don't know what Other airport time capsule is and not sure if I have to set it up .

I can't download iphoto after upgrading to Yosemite

I keep getting the message "unknown error" when I try to download Iphoto from the app store.

This error message will appear erraneously, if you skipped the update to Mavericks and iPhoto 9.5.1 and went straight from an earlier MacS X version to Yosemite, without first updating to iPhoto 9,5.1 and associating it to your AppleID.
Try first to buy iPhoto with your AppleID, as Kappy suggested. Delete iPhoto from Applications, but don't empty the Trash, then go to the main page of the App Store and search for iPhoto. If you are lucky, it will show as free and you can buy it directly.
If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support: Ask for a redemption code. You will need to provide a prove of purchase for your mac with iPhoto preinstalled.

BIG PROBLEMS WITH IPHOTO AFTER MAVERICKS DOWNLOAD

Hi! I´ve read all about iPhoto and mavericks problem on diferent questions and answers around Communities and done every one of the suggestions and still can't fix it, I´vd already erased iPhoto (hoping my photos are alive, if not im dead!!!) so that I buy anew the app but I can't it just simply says "accept" but can't buy it. What can I do plis help believe me I tried EVERYTHING. FYI, my iPhoto came with my Mac Book Pro since new. Pleeeeeaaaaseeee help me I really need to recover my photos and work on the app. Thank you very much

I have the same problem since I "upgraded" to OS X Maverics. I can't open iPhoto, because it says my version is old (version 9.2.1.). When I try to download the update, it tells me my iPhoto was purchased with a differed Apple ID (it already came with my MacBook Pro bought last year!!) and need to update under the same Apple ID (?). This is very frustrating!!

Problems with iPhoto after upgrading to 11

When I upgraded to iphoto 11,my photos showed up in the library, but then when I clicked on them to enlarge them some of them (not all) were a black exclamation point. Following advice on this forum, I rebuild the library.
Now my entire library is just black squares with the file names of the photos that used to be there underneath. When I scroll down, the black squares turn into a single photo. When I click on them, I see a black exclamation point for a few moments, and then I see my photo. This holds for the photos in my albums as well.
I'm glad my photos are still there, but I have thousands of photos and I need to be able to see them in the library... Anyone have any ideas? Thank you very much!

So, I used iPhoto Library Manager. I rebuild the library, and everything looks great WITHIN the Library Manager app. Unfortunately, when I open iPhoto, I still have the same problem. All of my photos turn into the same photo when I scroll, and when I don't scroll, they're all just black squares. And the photos are successfully connected -- when I click on them, they open after a few moments. I wish I'd never rebuild the library in the first place -- that's when my real problems started.

Cannot download Iphoto after updated to Yosemite

I cannot update Iphoto anymore after updated to Yosemite. The system popped up a small window and showed that: update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled. But it is my own account, I just changed the password.
Please help me to solve this problem.

That means, that your AppleID is not associated with the iPhoto version you have installed.
Which version of iPhoto do you currently have? Sign into the App Store with your Apple ID (in the Store" menu).
If iPhoto came preinstalled on your Mac, check the "Purchases" tab of the App Store, if there is an "Accept" button besides iPhoto. If yes, accept iPhoto to associate it with your Apple ID. Then try again to update.
If that does not work, uninstall iPhoto - move the iPhoto app from the Applications folder to the Trash and then go to the "Featured" tab of the App Store, search for iPhoto using the Search field, then press the "Get" button to install iPhoto again, this time with your current AppleID:

Problems downloading iTunes after upgrading to Windows 8.1

I just upgraded to WIndows 8.1. When I opened my iTunes it said there was an update was available. I tried to update my iTunes but kept getting errors. SO i decided to try and download the update later but when I tried to go to the iTunes store I got an error saying there was a problem accessing the iTunes store and then my iTunes closed. I looked at some of the comments in the community and tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. Now when I try to download itunes I keep getting the following error:
I am the only user of the computer and the only administrator. I tried downloading the installer and then right clicking on it and selecting 'run as administrator' and this also doesn't work.
Please help
Thanks

"The installer has insufficient privileges to access this directory: C:\Program Files(x86)\iTunes\iTunes.Resources\sk.lproj\Printing Templates. The instillation cannot continue. Log on as administrator or contact your system administrator."
That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Windows 8 instructions in the following document: Disk Error Checking in Windows 8
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Problems downloading iPhoto on MacBook Pro

My hard drive was replaced on my MacBook Pro by the Geek Squad and when I got it back, iPhoto was no longer on the hard drive. When I try to download it for $14.99 it says it can't be installed with my version of software. Even after a software update I can't download. Is there another version of iPhoto I can download, maybe somewhere that is free? Help!

The disks that TD is reffering to will look like one of these:

Problems with iPhoto after exporting library to external hard disk

Hello all,
I am using iPhoto 8 on an iBook G4. I recently attempted to back up my iPhoto library to an external hard disk. I did this by dragging the iPhoto library to the external hard disk. I did not delete the library on my own computer. Since I've done this, iPhoto has not been problematic. For instance, when I attempt to open an event on my computer, I can not see the thumbnails of all the photo's in the event - iPhoto will display each individual photo in sequence. If I want to print a picture, I have to export the entire event - I can't just drag the thumbnail to my desktop. Also, when I attempt to upload new pictures from my camera it produces an error.
Does anyone know what might be going on? I need to be able to access my photo's, so can anyone give me some advice on how to fix whatever I've done?
Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

iPhoto will display each individual photo in sequence.
There's a slider lower right of the iPhoto Window - drag it left.
Why are you exporting to Print?
when I attempt to upload new pictures from my camera it produces an error.
What does the error say?
As for accessing your pics:
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
For 10.5 users: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto. With 10.5 you can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
Or, if you want to access the files with iPhoto not running, then create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use THIS
Other options include:
1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

Downloading iPhoto after deleting it! oops, help!

I deleted my iPhoto cuz it was giving me trouble and I couldn't fix it. Now that I'm trying to find it on the apple web site to re-down load it I'm coming up with all these problems, first one was with the iPhoto 5 it wont up load cuz there is no trace of iphoto on my computer, then whe i try to do the old version of iphot it says there is alread an updated version on my computer but I cant find it! What to do cuz i have been working on this for days!

The version of iPhoto you deleted is available for free on the disks that shipped with your computer. But if you want to update iPhoto 5, you've got to buy it and install it first. iPhoto 5 is available as part of the iLife '05 software bundle

Problems downloading Iphoto 5.0

Like many of you I have Iphoto 2.0 and I tried downloading newer versions of Iphoto and I was able to download 5.0. However, when it was time to do the whole license agreement thing and choose the folder in which it was going to be saved...a little red icon appeared saying on the installer saying that it cannot download because there is no iphoto saved in the applications folder. Which makes no sense. Can anyone help me?

You need to purchase iLife if you want a newer iPhoto version; the free updaters will not take you to a newer version of iLife. That updater will only recognize an existing iPhoto 5 application, not iPhoto 4 or earlier.
