Since I upgraded to iPhoto 11 I've had nothing but problems

Adding keywords is too awkward.  I can't empty the iPhoto trash.  And other glitches or "steps backward" in functionality. 
Is it possible to reverto to the previous version?

no you can not revert
iPhoto '11 works fine - some things like keywords are different and maybe not as good but they are what they are - trash certainly will empty (although you need to empty the system trash too)
You can reload the backup of the iPhoto library that you made prior to upgrading and reinstall your previous version of iPhoto from its source if you want to return to it

  • I recently upgraded my iMac to 10.9.2 Nothing but problems since. Cannot connect reliably to a mixed pc/mac network at work, hangs at start up, hangs at shut down. Please help!

    Can anyone offer suggestions as to why since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9.2 I can no longer access a mixed pc/mac network? Previous to the upgrade, I did not have any problems. Other macs within my office can still access it, so I know it is not a network based issue. It exists in my machine only, and the other matching machine that exists in the office did NOT do the upgrade and has no problems. (Bummer for me)
    I have:
    Reset the PRAM
    Reset the SMC
    Turned off the network Wifi and rebooted, then turned it on again, still ridicously slow when I try and connect to shared pc server. I can connect to other macs though.
    Seems to alternate between a normal start up time, and a ridicously slow start up time with no apparent connecting reason as to why
    I have a shared HP Laser printer on the network that is working with other computers accessing it, perhaps this is the conflict? It is in Wifi mode, but the software is loaded on my computer. However, prior to the upgrade, I had no problems.
    My mail crashed shortly after installing 10.9.2, but I did finally get that up and running, but sometimes it loads and tells me that there is "No Mailbox Selected" in the initial opening Mail window. This is new, it never used to do that. I can select "Inbox" and see my mail, but I never used to need this step.
    When I try and access the shared network that has always worked previously, it now will not load the shared docs and folders, just sits there, and hangs. Sometimes it will load the folders after about 5 minutes, but will not allow me to open them.
    I do not run any virus protection software.
    Any ideas? I would be infinitely grateful for suggestions.

    Your download or install of the update may have been corrupt. Visit the Mac App Store and re-download the update or visit http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1726 and download the 10.9.2 update combo and re-install.
    If that fails to solve the problem please post back and post a EtreCheck Report which you can locate at:

  • Since upgrading to Firefox 4 I have had nothing but trouble. How do I downgrade and not lose my bookmarks? Or just downgrade without uninstalling Firefox?

    It won't load properly, freezes, crashes unexpectedly, won't pull up PDF files from web sites and has issues running with hotmail. I've used Firefox for years and have never had this kind of problem. How do I downgrade to an older version? The new version 4 is obviously not ready to run and is riddled with problems.

    I have to agree, fixing something that was working fine and replacing it with the new crap has led me to switch browsers.BIG FAIL MOZILLA
    Why do people do this shit.
    Turn off updating to keep your good working version or you will be forced to use the new version that is missing some well used features.

  • Since I downloads the latest Safari I have had nothing than problem how can I go back to an older version

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

  • How can I undo the last firefox update? I've had nothing but problems since!

    Ever since I updated to firefox 3.6.10 firefox keeps freezing on me as well as doing all kinds of weird things making it just about impossible to browse or post on the web. So how do I get back to the older version???

    Go to ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ , click on Mozilla Firefox under Internet, and you can download ANY version of Firefox that was ever created.
    edit: replaced random download site link

  • HT1369 Since we updated our Itunes to 10.7 we've had nothing but problems, first we lost all our music (luckily I was able to recover it) but now it won't find my phone when I plug it in. Has anyone else had this issue?

    Has anyone out there been having any problems with Itunes since updating Itunes.  First it lost all our music (which I recovered), now it won't find my phone when I plug it in. 

    I hate to say it, but Apple is literally infamous for teething problems on new releases. It's usually fixed in two days, though that fix usually gets fixed, too, so sometimes a week, but does means downloading new updates.
    My (experienced) advice? Wait a couple of days, check for updates, try again. Pray (or whatever works for you) that you don't have the "lost Apple Device Driver" problem several people are having.
    I keep an older version of iTunes installer on a backup drive (or just in my downloads folder), just for such events. Worst-case, I've always been able to uninstall iTunes (including driver and user info), then install my old version of iTunes and roll on. Yes, my iTunes folder is on an external hard drive, so I can move it around to my different computers, and then keep a backup of that hard drive on a second external hard drive. Saves me a ton of headaches.

  • Ever since I downloaded the latest itunes software I've had nothing but problems. I lost all my information. I am in the process of redownloading all itunes university stuff. Now as it is downloading the program is freezing. What can i do?

    Upon doiwnloading the latest itunes I've noticed that my downloads stall in the same place. I have been stuck in the same loop for hours no matter what I do. I think that ome or a couple of downloads have me stuck because I keep goihg back to the same download. Can someone help me figure out how to delete or get past these items so that I can ffinish the rest of my download?  thanks for your help.

    With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show
    This screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC :

  • Nothing but problems since update from v5

    Is there any way that I can uninstall iphoto 6 and go back to v5? I have had nothing but problems since this update. At first no photos were imported, then once I imported them (which took a couple of hours), many of them are duplicates that I now need to sort. But the worst part is that many of them are thumbnails that are too small so that when i try to drag a photo into iWeb everything is pixelated and looks horrible. I have spent hours reading this help site and tried BatChmod and iPhoto library manager and rebuilt the thumbnails but still have these problems. I don't understand why everything worked beautifully in v5 and this "update" is causing so many problems. I didn't really want to update iPhoto in the first place. I bought iLife so that I could use iWeb and the other apps automatically installed. This is extremely frustrating.
    Sorry for the frustrated tone - I'm just at wits end dealing with this for the last few days...

    Hi,
    Thanks for taking time with this. Yes, when I first installed I also updated to 6.04.
    Below, my responses:
    "Very strange. Upon the initial opening of iPhoto6 your library photos are reorganized into a new folder structure different than methods employed by earlier versions of iPhoto. Once completed iPhoto ought to open automatically revealing your Photo Library as it existed in iPhoto 5. Either:
    - iPhoto 6 never processed your original library and instead simply created a new Photo Library (hence the blank library you saw - moving the Library to a location other than the Pictures folder, or naming the Library something other than iPhoto Library could be contributing causes),
    - or the app didn't work properly, which I doubt."
    *It seems that it must have created a new Photo Library. I didn't rename or move the file prior to the update as far as I know. It was in the Pictures file and appeared to be fine, but when I opened iPhoto, the library was blank and said No Photos.
    "It sounds like the problem began with the initial reorganization. Do you remember getting a prompt from the app. asking you which library you wanted to reorganize? Do you have multiple libraries? Have you used iPhoto Library Manager?"
    I don't remember getting a prompt asking which library, but it could have happened. No, I only had one photo library. I only used Library Manager after I encountered the problem of the empty library and turned to this forum for advice.
    "Did you make this backup prior to the initial opening of iPhoto 6, or after the initial reorganization? If it's the former, you could trash the entire iPhoto Library folder in your existing Pictures folder, then move the backup library intact into the Picture folder. Then you would start-up iPhoto (hold down the option key so you are pointed to the correct library) and allow the app. to reorganize the Library into its new structure."
    Well... no, I didn't have a current backup prior to the initial opening of iPhoto6. Completely my fault there.
    "If the backup is after the reorganization, from what you describe, it seems your backed-up libraries may not have been reorganized. Advice is the same as in the previous paragraph."
    I did that as well - launched hold option key, etc. Then I had photos after a few hours of rebuilding. That was good, but now I'm not sure what to do with all of the thumb sized duplicates. I think that all of the photos are there, just organized in a bit of a strange way - I usually had my library organized by roll according to date - and the rebuilding put things in strange orders and also merged some rolls, etc. For the most part though, each rebuilt roll is either fullsize or thumbsize, so that is a bit helpful. Since none of the previously sorted albums survived the update installation it's just very time consuming sorting through thousands of pics.
    What I've done now is sorted rolls into fullsize and thumbsize, as a start to making sure that I have duplicates of all photos in both sizes before I do anything else. Once I have that job completely finished, what should I do with all of the thumbsize duplicates? Do I need the thumbs? Can I take them out of the viewing window of the application?
    Of course I was planning on doing a backup the week that I got the new software but was too excited to install to remind myself to do the backup first... A good lesson to learn I suppose.
    Thanks so much for your help. I look forward to seeing what to do once things are sorted again.

  • Nothing but problems since switching out SIM card's at at&t

    so lately, i've been having this strange recurring issue with my sim card. every so often the iphone will report that it is not installed even when it is in there, only way i was able to correct it would be to shut the phone off and turn it back on. it got annoying to the point where i took it too AT&T Yesterday and had the sim card's switched out.
    Since then i've had nothing but problem's, i went home and my iPhone just started spitting out error's like crazy. It keept reporting "Accessory is not supported by the iphone, would you like to go into airplane mode to reduce sound quality? you will not be able to make or receive calls while in airplane mode"
    To me that sounded like a problem with the activation process after AT&T switched out my sim card.
    So I plugged in my iPhone into my computer, and it gave me more problems.. Window's was able to detect my iphone but it took FOREVER. I left it in there for two hours until it finally activated the phone.
    After that scenario i thought it would be best to try and do a full restore on my iphone to see if that would help clear the lag, i hit the restore button and let the download finish.. then after itunes just hanged there for 3 hours and did nothing. so i had no other choice but to unplug the phone and try again.
    Now when i plug the iphone into that same USB port I get 1 of two error's, more commonly i get an "itunes could not connect to iphone due to an unknown error (0xE80000024)" http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/8369/iphoneerror2.jpg
    When i restart the computer and try to plug it into that same port i get this error "itunes could not back up the iPhone because a session could not be started with the iPhone" http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/4837/iphoneerror.jpg
    If i try an other USB port it will connect and sync perfectly fine, but i cant do a restore to clear the lag issues, if i try it will just hang there. usually the only way i can "fix" this error is to re install window's entirely and start from scratch, which to be honest i'm really tired of doing..
    anyone have any idea what could be causing these problems? I'm not positive it's the phone itself so i want to try and restore it before i go to an apple store with these problems..
    itunes version 8.1.1.10
    Iphone Version 2.2.1 (5H11)
    Firmware version 2.30.03
    Windows Vista 32 Bit

    Based on your description of the problems before and after getting a new SIM card, and before attempting a restore with iTunes and the problem that occured when trying to do a restore, I would give AppleCare a call at (800) 694-7466, or make an appointment at an Apple store if there is one nearby ASAP.

  • Can't sync photos since I upgraded to iPhoto 2009

    It's not a huge deal, but I can't sync photos to my iPod. This seemed to start happening since I upgraded to iPhoto 2009. Anyone else seeing this?
    Thanks.

    There is no plus on the Groups view page, but if you are on the contact list page the plus should be at the bottom, right side of the all contacts page. Not there?

    Since purchasing the Note 3 in October i have had nothing but issues. I went through all the steps and eventually I was sent a different phone, which was working for the most part until the recent upgrade. Now I am back to the old issues, no service, it actually says not moblie network available, when everyone else in my family has coverage and are on my plan with iphones. I am missing text messages and dropping calls left and right. This is unacceptable for the cost of this phone and my service. I have did a hard reset etc. What else can I do??

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Since I upgraded to Moutain Lion I'm dealing with wifi problems : no connection or random connection

    Since I upgraded to Moutain Lion I'm dealing with wifi problems : no connection or random connection. With  OS X Lion wifi was OK.

    So, Darrall, it seems to be fixed.  Mind you, this has happened through a seemingly unrelated, but hopefully replicable sequence of events.  You be the judge.
    I went to my other login account, which as it happens is also an admin account.  Voila, the secondary click worked fine.  So I returned to my primary account, where I did the following:
    First, I unpaired the trackpad.  then I remembered I needed something to move the mouse with, so I re-paired the magic mouse I'd had before.  I thought I'd turned off the trackpad, but apparently not, so the computer re-paired it automatically. None of this had any immediate effect, as you'd imagine.
    Then I went to Mission Control in Preferences. There, I deselected "Show dashboard as a space", and in the hotcorners, I deselected Mission Control from the bottom left, where it had been. I didn't replace it.
    Now, my secondary click works. Uh huh. I was suspicious that it might have more to do with Mission Control and/or Dashboard than the trackpad, only because I'd beaten that horse till my arm hurt and this was all I could think of. 
    Never did I imagine this would get fixed short of creating a new login account and somehow copying everything - since I didn't know what was wrong, I could easily have copied the error too - so I'm very pleased and relieved.  If you haven't fixed yours yet, try this.  Let me know what happens!

    While having a perfectly running iTunes and all programs associated, I was notified of the iTunes 10.4 upgrade. After following typical directions, I have had nothing but trouble. First “iTunesHelper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 5)” occurred. Following directions found at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15087646#15087646, I now get the following “iTunes.exe - System Error The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is still missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.”, Along with “iTunesHelper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126)” I am running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit on HP TouchSmart tx2-1275dx. I was one week away from buying an iPad but not if this is what I have to deal with. Please help

    I actually managed to resolve this on my own by downloading iTunes from the Apple website and reinstalling iTunes that way. Here's the link: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ That should fix your problem. Good luck!
