Reinstalled the Mac OS X and now iPhoto is gone?

I decided to entirely wipe clean my Mac by re-installing the Mac OS X discs. My memory was back to factory settings and my Mac was like brand-new. Fine... but then when I tried to import my pics from my digital camera, the memory card appeared as a file on the desktop. It didn't open iPhoto, like it usually did.
I decided to do a spotlight search for it and I couldn't find it. iPhoto isn't on my Mac anymore!
How do I get iPhoto back?! =[

If you’d like to reinstall applications that aren’t offered in the Custom Install screen—applications in the Utilities folder, for example—you can use Charles Srstka’s $20 Pacifist. It works this way:
Insert your Mac OS X Installer disc. Download Pacifist and launch it. In the window that appears click the Open Apple Install Discs button. A window will appear offering you the single choice to look at the OSInstall package. Click OK.
Pacifist will churn away for a bit and then you’ll see a window titled OSInstall.mpkg. In this window you can dig down through the hierarchy of folders to find what you seek or you can enter the name of what you’re after in the Find field and press Return. A drawer appears that lists the names of matching files.
To install an item click the Install button in the upper-left corner of the window. You’ll be prompted for your administrator’s password. Enter it, click OK, and the item will be installed into its proper location on your Mac’s hard drive.

  • I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone.  How can I get it back?

    I just updated photos on Yosemite and now iPhoto is gone.  How can I get it back?

    What were you running before you updated? 10.10.2, or an earlier version of OS X (10.9 or earlier)?
    If 10.10.2, then iPhoto should still be on your machine. If not, then go to the App Store, purchased tab, and look for iPhoto, and download it (you'll need iPhoto 9.6.1 to run on Yosemite).
    If you never installed iPhoto from the Mac App Store, then you should contact AppleCare, who can probably help you out. That's the only option in this case; upgrading from 10.9 or earlier straight to 10.10.3 is a bad incidence of timing.

  • I downloaded the latest update yesterday and now itune is gone from my pc because it didn't download correctly

    I downloaded the latest update yesterday and now itunes is gone from my toshiba laptop.  I get a message msvcr80.dll. Any suggestions why

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall press on)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • I had to get a new hard drive and now iPhoto is gone.  Can I get it back?

    I had to replace my hard drive and now my iPhoto is gone.  Is there a way to get it back?
    Thanks

    reinstall from the original source
    Could be
    1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
    or
    2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
    or
    3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first

  • Imovie source clips is missing, i had the videos on the last imported event and now they're gone? how do i recover this?

    so i imported a few clips, i think i dragged them into imovie? i have forgotten by now because i did this a couple of weeks ago. these clips got into the "last import" in the event library. so without knowing that it would get lost somehow, i didn't put them anywhere else. i don't have a backup on another folder (because i thought it was save in the imovie folder) as it turned out, it is nowhere to be found now. there is no "last import" folder in the imovie events folder. and the yellow box that comes up when the cursor's on the warning sign says they're in the "new event" folder, but that's also nowhere to be found.
    i am freaking out right now because it's a group project due this wednesday, i'm on the verge of crying.
    is there anyway i can get these clips back?
    i'm in the middle of scanning my trash with ulysoft data recovery. hopefully it's somewhere there.
    i'm going crazy right now.
    please help.

    Glenyse - I went to my login id and password listed in Firefox and removed
    the only ones there; they were associated with photoshop.com
    I then entered photoshop.com in the URL and logged in as

    Up came adoberevel.com . It showed Tony's Albums, telling me I was logged
    in as Tony. But still no albums listed.
    Same problem as earlier. Suggestions?

  • Rebooted my Mac a week ago and now iPhoto is gone ?

    Whole story as a short story... hi
    I bought my Mac in June 2011 and also some iLife Products like Garage Band and iPhoto '11.
    A week ago I rebooted my MacBook without any problems or mistakes.
    But I don't know where to get back the Garage Band and iPhoto app without paying a second time.
    I don't wanna upgrade to Mavericks because of the cloud (very secret business matters).
    Besides the new iPhoto won't run without Mavericks.
    Any ideas, explanations or alternative apps?
    Thanks in advance.

    You should have a disk that looks like the iMac disk in this screenshot:
    Use it to custom install the iApps you need. Then update thru Software Updates.

  • Upgraded to leopard, now iPhoto is gone

    Hello,
    I upgraded my parents' computer to leopard (my mum tried and messed a bunch of stuff up so I just wiped it all and started afresh) and now iphoto is gone. We used to have it on this computer, and when I upgraded my computer iphoto came with it. I'm not sure how to fix this and since iPhoto is one of their favorite features I really need to fix it soon. Does anyone have some advice?
    Thanks in advance,

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    It’s on the System Restore disks that came with the computer. Isert and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only’.
    Regards

    What matters is the version of iPhoto you have on the different machines. Can you tell us what they are, and what exact error message you get.

  • My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download

    My Adobe trial for Photoshop Elements 10 for the Mac was over and I wanted to buy the application. The screen message was "Your trial has expired...but the fun doesn't have to end! Buy now to continue using Photoshop Elements 10 without having to download or re-install. " and then the button "Buy Now". When I hit the Buy Now button I am put in a field to buy Photoshop Elements 13, with no way to change to Elements 10. I do not want to go through the hassle of reinstalling etc. In fairness, it's been over a month since making the decision to buy. Still, I consider this a nightmare. Any ideas on how to buy the app I've got withou having to purchase a whole new one? Thanks.
    If worse comes to worse, will I need to uninstall the trial if I buy a new version? Can I use part of it lime download assistant?

    Adobe does not sell older versions of their software.  If you wish to purchase an older version you will have to find and take your chances with a third party vendor.

    Hola, buen dia, Ignacio. Saludos desde México.
    To get the Mac App Store back you will need to manually download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.7 Update Combo;
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1361
    It is safe to install this over your current installation of 10.6.7. It will reinstall the Mac App Store, as well as fill in any gaps that your installation my have. It is a common troubleshooting step.

WHat do i do!!!!!!  Is this some type a virus???? my mac is protected!!!!! tried to chat with an IT person but they keep asking if its like a tech problem and it is just iphoto

    You should get your keyboard checked as it's repeating  on a lot of keys and makes you look silly.
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I've just updated my iPhone to the new iPhone OS and now it won't work and iTunes won't recognise that it's there.  I've uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled twice and it's not working.  Please help.

    I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version.  I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again.  I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again.  My blue tooth doesn't work either.  I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this.  When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue.  My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!!  I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue.  Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it.  Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
    June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

  • I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice.  Also, a second library was created and it became the default library.  I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open.  what can I do to revert to the old library?

    I have a new mac book air and somehow iPhoto was installed twice.  Also, a second library was created and it became the default library.  I attempted to switch to the original library but it won't open.  what can I do to revert to the old library?

    Both iPhotos open to a default library (#2) which has 300+ photos,  I attempted to "switch to library" under the file tab in iPhoto and tried to choose "other library" which had most of my photos.  When I attempt to open it, it doesn't do anything.  I can see it and there are 2 libraries but it won't open.
    Have you tried to open your old iPhoto library by double-clicking it directly, instead of using the File menu?  That should work, if you are running iPhoto '11 and the library has been created by that version or an older version.  DO you get an error message, if you select the library directly in the Finder?
    I checked and it is the latest version of iPhoto.
    Is it iPhoto '11, version 6.0.5? "Latest version" is ambiguous, because it will depend on your system version.
    Where is your iPhoto Library stored?
