Problems with iphoto '08 and maverick

After upgrading on Mavericks I tried to create a fotobook with my old iphoto 08 (7.1.5), but iphoto doesn't find any theme and so it doesn't work.
What can I do?
Is is necessary to buy a new version of iphoto or can I update something for free?
Thanks for your help.

if I try to get the new version of iphoto he tells me that I have a version of iphoto but that I have to buy the new one. Is this correct?

I am using iPhoto 11 and my library has 736.5mb on disk. I have problems with iPhoto stalling and needing to force quit. I have rebuilt my library. Can you suggest anything else?

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If that does'nt help log into another user account on your Mac and try iPhoto from there.

IPhone problem with iPhoto 08 and Web Gallery 08

I have created web photo galleries in iPhoto 08. Then I have opened iWeb08 and created a page an added a web gallery widget for each of the galleries on this page, everything works fine. Now I fire up the iPhone and go to my iWeb page where the widgets are located.
The problem is the web gallery widget appears on the iPhone screen as a blue cube with a question mark on two sides and some round grey circles on top. I can not access the galleries from iPhone. Are these cubes a representation for some program that the iPhone can't open? Any help is appreciated.

I'd post your question in the iPhone forum because it seems to be an iPhone issue rather than an iPhoto one.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto 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), 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 08 libraries and Leopard. 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.

Problem with iPhoto Book and pictures

Hello,
When i create a photo book with iphoto, i havent got my photo in the real size. iphoto crop my photos.
Other thing : is it possible to insert a 16/9 photo ? Choose the size of the picture : like square, panoramic ... ????
Thanks for your help.

You cannot change the actual sizes of the frames in the books. You can make some adjustments to the way your photo is displayed by double-clicking on it. You can resize the photo and move the photo within the frame, but that is about all you can do.
For information about the iPhoto books, check out this website: http://www.lizcastro.com/iphotobookthemes/
I hope this helps.

Time Capsule Connectivity Problem with Airport Utility and Mavericks

I have a Time Capsule from 2011 which worked perfectly with my IMac and Airport Utility 5.6.1 but since the upgrade to Mavericks, I cannot get it to work with Airport Utility. Any help much appreciated. Thanks.

When you say.....
I cannot get it to work with AirPort Utility....
What does not work? Can you open up AirPort Utility and take us through the steps? What happens after each step?

Problems with iPhoto lib after mavericks upgradening iPhoto says upgrade and pref lib will be unreadable after lib upgrade. Help-don't want to lose all prev pictures in lib.

After upgrade, attempted to open iPhoto to upload pictures from camera. Message says need to upgrade library and that after upgrade previous library will be unreadable. In holding pattern for now-don't want to lose all 4K prev pictures in iphoto library. Anyone have same or similar problem?

gotitans, I think you have an entirely different problem than we are discussing in this thread.
You should open your own thread, and you should describe your problems in more detail. For example, what type of Mac do you have, what operating system does it run, what version of iPhoto did you have running before the upgrade,and just what sort of upgrade did you do (hardware, operating system, iPhoto, something else)?
My best guess from just that message is that you did a hardware upgrade, and your version of iPhoto is too old to run on the new hardware.
ntgerh64, it would probably be good if you gave us the same details I asked of gotitans. I was assuming you were talking about upgrading OS X to Mavericks and then iPhoto to 9.5 or 9.5.1.

Problems with new iMac and Maverick: ITunes and Time Machine

Just upgraded from an old to new iMac, migrated my data from my old machine and installed Maverick. Couple of major problems.
1. My iTunes library won't open. I've been into the library folders but can't work out how to get the old library to load. Decided to try a sync back from my iPhone but while the phone tells me that it has synced with my Mac, the music hasn't moved across.
2. Time Machine doesn't work. On my old machine I was using an external Omega hard drive but when I plug it into the new Mac it isn't even showing up on the desktop. Clearly there's a connection of some sort as the disc is powering from the Mac. Prior to upgrade, I was getting messages that Time Machine couldn't be updated but I put that down to my failing elderly Mac, which kept crashing, freezing and needed replacing. Perhaps the external drive was dying too.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks,
Mike

I dragged the installer from the install disk to my desktop and was more successful in installing problem CS2 apps. Make sure to update everything as well. Some times it takes a restart to get the finickiness out of PS.

Find filter problem with Adobe CS6 and Mavericks

Hi to all!
I've 2 new MacPro with OSX 10.9 (is no possible to downgrade) with Adobe Illustrator CS6 and all software are full updated at the last version.
Firs of all I've found a problem after a last firmware update of my 2 MacPro, in samba connection, solved by AFP implement; in detail:
I've a Qnap storage with samba and afp shares, so when I connect the samba share the search function in finder not find any, but if I connect the same share via AFP protocol, all works good.
Ok, it's a problem but no so bad for me because I've the possibility to use AFP ;-)
Ok, now the big problem:
when I use the CS5 Illustrator and I execute the "insert" command, the search window show blank screen in the search area if I select a qnap sared folder (AFP or SAMBA shared get the same result, 0 element found)
After many and many tests I've solved with a workaround: I've forced the Finder to index the shared folder (from the command line in the console) and in this case I've no more problem...
The problem affect only the afp and samba share, with the local folder (volumes) I don't have any problem.
So, I can't downgrade Maveriks, and I'm sure the problem is not of CS6... then my only solution is to wait a future update of Mavericks?! or anyone can suggest me a solution?
Thank you for any reply.
Paolo

Go here to check out compatibility:

As for Photoshop CS6 itself, I have no issues running
it on Mavericks on my 2011 Mini Server.
Also, before upgrading, make sure any drivers for third
party hardware are up to date and compatible with Mavericks.

Problems with iPhoto 6 and Canon SELPHY CP720

Just got the CP720 and tried printing from iPhoto. All the pictures come out too dark - noticeably darker than on my Apple display. This makes iPhoto editing worthless, since what you see is not what prints !!! Spent two days researching Colorsync and ICC profiles documentation, but can't figure out what the problem is. Canon states no guarantee that their printers work with 10.4.x. A query to their customer service produced no solution.
I've seen a couple references to this same iPhoto compatibility problem on other Canon printers. If you are printing iPhoto to Canon, compare your photos and see if you may be experiencing this as well.
Anyone figure this out yet?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords 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 with iPhoto '11 and OS X firewall

I have had a problem recently where iPhoto '11 keeps asking to allow incoming connections every time I launch the app, even though I have told it "allow" and the firewall is set to automatically allow signed apps. In the past, iPhoto was automatically added by the firewall without ever having to allow it explicitly, but now there's no way to get the firewall to accept it without asking.
The only workaround I have found is that this does not happen if sharing is turned off (or the firewall is turned off), but that's not ideal. I believe, though I am not certain, that this dates from the 9.1 update for iPhoto. I have tried uninstalling iPhoto and reinstalling from the disk and by downloading the 9.1 update separately rather than by using software update, but that did not help.

The problem seems to only occur after performing the 9.1 update. As the same problem occurred in itunes 10.1 and has just been fixed with 10.1.1 we can assume a iPhoto 9.1.1 patch can't be far away!

Problem with iphoto, printer, and toast

Can someone direct me to a discussion on this topic. I seem to have a driver problem or something...when I go to print anything, from any program, said program crashes.
Toast titanium won't open properly, and then won't even force quit no matter what I do.
Iphoto won't add to library anymore.
My Sibelius lost all it's fonts, and I'm sure there are a few more things I haven't even noticed yet. They all happened at the same time which is why I reckon they're all the same problem.
I'm running an Imac g5, so I know it's old! Also- I cannot locate the original cds that would let me do a reinstallation. Is there somewhere I can get them?
Oh I hope someone somewhere still running pre intel reads this.

Try running a reset printing system. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax. Then hold down the Control key and click your mouse in the Printers list. A menu showing Reset printing system should appear. Click this.
Now restart your Mac and then add the Canon driver again. Hopefully this gets things working for you again.

Problem with Epson WF600 and Mavericks printing

My Epson WF600 no longer is recognized wirelessly, by my Macbook Pro, when I go to Add Printers in my System Preferences. I installed the new Drivers for Epson (I think), but unless I connect the printer with a USB cable, my laptop wont print wirelessly from the Epson. Please help.

Try resetting the router (power off 15 secs, then back on), then reset the printer same way.
Also reset Printing System:
OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
How did you install new drivers?
The new driver paradigm for OS X is: manufacturers give Apple the current drivers to keep on their servers. It gets installed automatically when we add the printer in Print & Scan prefs. You can force OS X to re-find both installed and available drivers by resetting the printing system.
Find current version of drivers from this:
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download

Problem with iPhoto 7 import

Hi,

I made 53 scan of photos in 1200dpi, modified, cleaned and saved them in jpeg files (1mo to 2mo by photo)
all are in the same folder and some are in grayscale other in colors.
When I want to import (with copying or not) them in iPhoto 7 (already updated) 15 of 53 have not small photo in event they are black, and when I zoom on them they are bug.
It is only in iPhoto.
If I share this event in iMovie small photo is black but if I move this photo in my iMovie project Photo is good...
Then it is really a big problem because I can't use iPhoto for my albums, cards, ...
Have you a solution?

I have a problem with iphoto (have a mac book pro): the icon in the dock appears with a question mark, and the application is gone!!! Can someone tell what's going on? Yesterday I had the same problem with itunes: I downloaded the last version (it's free), but I cannot do the same with iphoto, and more important: I need to know what is happening!!! Please help me!

Applications should not disappear all by themselves.
If they are then that coud indicate serious problems with your hard drive.
Backup everything up as quickly as possible.
Using Disk Utility verify your system disk.
