Problems with iPhoto 11.1.4 after update

iPhoto automatically upgraded to 11.1.4 on February 1st, since when I have not been able to access my iPhoto libraries.  I had upgraded to "Mavericks" from 10.6 in November 2013 and then installed the compatible version of Microsoft Office and have been using both Office and iPhoto since then, so I conclude that (a) it is not an old problem and (b) it is not a "cross-contamination" problem.
On starting iPhoto, the message appears that I do not have permission to access the library or that the disk is locked.  Since I created the library under my user-id, I find it difficult to believe that I do not have permission, and I have checked (4 or more times) that the disk is not locked.
A further message then told me that I needed to use the 'library updater', which I downloaded and ran.  I am still unable to access the library.
I have not "sync'd" my iPad nor my iPhone since then, as I am concerned that this could endanger the photographs downloaded from my MacBook.
Does anyone know of a problem with iPhoto 11.1.4 and older libraries which have been progressively updated (from pre-2009 through "Snow Leopard")?

The problem was not with the location - which had not changed - of the library but with the library itself.
I checked similar queries / issues and found an app "iPhoto Library Manager" which HAS solved the problem and, when I install the non-free version (which I have now purchased), it will help me remove the hundreds of duplicates & multiples which have infiltrated my library since about 2007!
Thank you for your response - it showed that someone cared!

  • Problems with Wifi on iphone 4 after updating ot iOS 5.1

    After I update to iOS 5.1 is started having problems with my home wifi.
    After the update every thing seems to be running alright after after a day my connection was lost.
    When I tried to reconnect I got the message "unable to join the network".
    I tried the following things:
    - Forget network, reconnect: This did not help
    - restart iPhone: did not help.
    - Reset network settings: did not help.
    The next step I tried was to restart my router.
    This solved the problem, but after 1 day I have the same issue.
    When I go to work there is no problem when I get back home same thing over again.
    This is going on ever since I update to iOS 5.1
    Before the update I had no problems.
    Does anyone have more perment solution.

    I have the same issue with my iPhone4 running ios5.1. I have tried everything you mentioned above as well as updating the firmware on my router, setting my router to broadcast on 2.4GHZ or 5GHZ exclusively,  assigning my iPhone a static address as well as a multitude of other mentioned fixes. I have determined this is NOT an issue with my WiFi Network, or Router. All other wireless devices in my home do not have this issue; except for my partner's iPhone4S also running ios5.1. It's WiFi issues are identical to mine. Our other Smartphone, an  HTC running Android, has no WiFi issues whatever.
    When I attempt to use WiFi on other networks with my iPhone4, I encounter the same issues: Intermittent connectivity,reporting that it is "Unable to Join Network", showing a strong WiFi signal on screen and yet having no WiFi connectivity, showing WiFi connectivity on screen and strong signal strength, and having no IP Address(etc) under WiFi Networks Settings. After spending a great deal of time online looking for solutions I have determined the following:
    This is clearly an Apple Hardware or Software issue. I hope Apple eventually addresses this issue because it is extremely frustrating!

  • Problems with iPhoto '08 version 7.1 update

    I'm using iPhoto for the first time since I loaded the version 7.1 update of September 26. I keep getting a message "An error occurred while trying to save your photo library". When I quite iPhoto and restart it, the photos I imported aren't shown and the web galleries I created aren't in iPhoto (though they are still on the web...so presumably no way to delete them either!). Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on how to fix it? My photo library is on an external USB hard drive.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    I would reformat that drive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and have it set to ignore ownership. The FAT format handles resource forks (or does not handle) differently causes problems.
    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. iPhoto doesn't not have to be closed to run it, just idle.
    I've written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

    Hi all,
    after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
    The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
    Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
    Regards
    Michael

    First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
    I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

    Some user post that when they reset the pram and pmu and change the resolution screen to its native (biggest) resolution, it will solve the problem.

  • Does anyone else have a problem with their text tone 'glitching' after updating to iOS 5?

    Since updating to iOS 5, my text tone 'glitches' whenever i recieve a message. By glictching, I mean that it sounds doubled or sometimes it plays, stops then plays again very quickly. I've tried resetting the phone, this works for a few messages then starts again :/ Any suggestions on how to fix this would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks

    It would be nice to get this issue fix.  I didn't notice it until today.  The text tone is very sporatic, or delayed, alerts me twice, and it's just not what it used to be like.  C'mon Apple - fix the glitches, please.

    Option in MAIL to "Add to iPhoto" isn't working after updating to Mountain Lion. Anybody else with this problem or sulution?

    A brief search. Or even glancing at the "more like this" list to the right will show that this is a known problem and there is no current solution. Workaround includ saving to the desktop and importing from there or opening in Quick Look and adding to iPhoto from there

  • Problem with iPhoto 9.2.1 update to a higher version.

    Hi, I have a problem with iPhoto 9.2.1 update to a higher version. I tried to install version 9.2.3 and version 9.2.2 and each time the installer returns the message that must have version 9.1.0. Both the update downloaded from Apple.

    How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
    If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
    Otherwise you update via Softare Update
    If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
    If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

  • I'm having problem with my iphone4S first when i updated software to 7.1 after a month or so wifi turned grayed, second when i tried to turn off in the night as soon as i turn it on battery empty now its totaly dead. What should i do with it?

    I'm having problem with my iphone4S first when i updated software to 7.1 after a month or so wifi turned grayed, second when i tried to turn off in the night as soon as i turn it on battery empty now its totaly dead. What should i do with it?

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754
    59&tstart=0
    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
    Up
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.
    btabz
    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

  • Problems with iPhoto 7.1

    Hope someone may help me with this. I just downloaded the iLife update and the new iPhoto 7.1 (and of course Gargeband etc.) and by opening iPhoto it does load the library, but then some menu functions do not work. Preferences does not open, the slideshow button does not work. It only shows the busy icon and I'll have to do a force stop. The message reads: 'iPhoto not reponding'. Before the update I never had problems with iPhoto.
    Thanks! Edward from the Netherlands

    Edward:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The slideshow button will work but it's very, very, very slow. Try again and let it sit for a while. It sometimes takes up to 30 seconds to open fully. It's the same with the Preferences. The latest update has made it slow to open the first time. After that it seemed to work OK for me. Be sure to post your problems at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html. The more reports the better.
