"To open this iPhoto library in Aperture, it first needs to be upgraded".  Aperture already up to date. still cant open aperture library. please advice

When I try to open my aperture library, this is the message pop out  " TO OPEN THIS iPHOTO LIBRARY IN APERTURE, IT FIRST NEEDS TO BE UPGRADED. "
My apperture application is already up to date. no more upgrade available. please advice what to do.

The update refers to the library not the application. 
So is this an Aperture library you are trying to open in iPhoto or an iPhoto library you are trying to open in Aperture? You're post is confusing on this point.
In either case make sure the library is up-to-date in the originating application then the other should open it.
BTW what version of iPhoto abnd Aperture are you running?

  • How do i import from my Aperture 3 to 3.5.1 as Aperture 3 says it needs to be upgraded which i have done but still cannot open my photographs.

    how do i import from my Aperture 3 to 3.5.1 as Aperture 3 says it needs to be upgraded to 3.5.1 which I have done but i still cannot see any photographers.
    Are you trying to import an older Aperture 3 library? Or do you just want to open your old library in Aperture 3.5.1?
    In any case the Aperture library needs to be upgraded, not the Aperture application. Double-click your old Aperture library to open it in Aperture. Then Aperture will upgrade the library, so it can be opened in Aperture  and you can can browse it.
    Since upgrading your Aperture library to Aperture 3.5.1 will require a major rebuilding the library in a new format be sure to make a backup copy of your library before doing this, just to be safe.

  • Can not open aperture. Get this message "to open this iPhoto library in Aperture, it first needs to be upgraded. Verify that you have iPhoto 9.3 or later. Then open the library in iPhoto to upgrade it." I have iPhoto 9.4.2. HELP

    I have done all the necessary updates. Just very frustrated.

    Someone else recently ran into a similar issue. If you're sure you've opened the library in the latest version of iPhoto, try the troubleshooting steps in that thread.
    The fellow in that thread eventually fixed his library by grabbing his DataModelVersion.plist file from a backup of his library and putting it in his new library, but your milage may vary.

  • My iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    my iphoto wont open since i updated my mac, please help? it says i need to install an iphoto library upgrader which I have installed but still cant see my photos.

    What version of iPhoto are you using? 9.6 is the current version.
    Do a backup.
    Quit the application.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
    Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
    If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
    Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

  • When I try to open the Iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update but when I click on the software update tab, it says that all updates are up to date. I still cant open the Iphoto, what should I do?

    When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?

    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.

    Trying to watch a video on quick time player and i keep getting this message You may need to install additional software to open this type of file. what do i need to install and how

    I believe there is a technique which uses some similar suggestion to unwittingly tempt the user into installing malware, in order to be able to watch some (usually sexually explicit) video, so be aware of this ruse.
    The only things I would download would be Perian that extends Quicktime, available here,
    http://www.perian.org/
    and if that did not do it, then try VLC to use instead of Quicktime.

  • Still cant open embedded files with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    Hi!
    In the first version of Adobe Reader X you had to disable the Protection Mode in order to open PDF-files on a network drive or that are embedded in a i.e Word document.
    I have now upgraded my version to 10.0.1.
    The first issue seems to be solved (open files on a network drive). But I still cant open PDF files embedded in another file??
    I get the error message: The Program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed.
    And if I try to embedd a PDF-file myself into a document I get the same result.
    As soon as I turn of the Protection Mode it works...
    Is there a way to keep the PM on and still be able to open documents???
    Regards Daniel

    I'm not sure why Adobe hasn't looked into this.  One description elsewhere in the forum seems to suggest that if the computer has had older versions of the reader installed, it will work -- somehow the embedded file needs an older registry key.  I have yet to try installing older versions of reader onto my machine.  This machine has only had reader 10 installed on it.
    I tried the recommendation that is given in another thread.  Turn off running reader in protected mode.  The first time I did it, it didn't work.  The second time I unchecked the "use in protected mode" box, I closed and then reopened reader.  Now I can open embedded pdfs in word.

  • The photo library needs to be upgraded but it doesn't and won't open

    When I go into IPhoto a message pops up that the photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto, but when I hit upgrade it search's for an upgrade than another box pops up that say "you can't open your current photo library using this version of iPhoto. It continues "you have made changes to your photo library using a newer version of iPhoto. Please quit and use the latest version of iPhoto. But I can't upgrade. Any ideas?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    These messages can be a symptom of database damage:
    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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    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, 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.

  • HT5037 I am trying to open my iPhoto, but it tells me I need to upgrade.  Help?

    I can't opne my iPhotos.  It tells me I need to upload using the Library Uploader.  I download as instructed, but it doesn't seem to download.  I can't open my iPhotos.  Help!

    Okay- so here's the long story!
    Perhaps this will help.
    My computer crashed a few months ago. 
    We got a new hard-drive.
    I tried to open my iPhoto for the first time and go some message about it being "locked".  I no longer get that message so I don't remember entirely what it said, but I followed to directions to "unlock" it.
    Now, when I click 'iPhoto" on my dock, I get this message: 
    To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared.
    To prepare the library, use the iPhoto Library Upgrader available from Apple.
    then there is a "learn more" button.
    When you select that, it takes me here and this is where my discussion started.   http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5037
    I followed the steps to upgrade from previous versions- see my comment above, but I get stuck from 8.1.2 version to what appears to be the next one up from there.
    Does this help?  I hate computers and simply want get my photos back from Carbonite before the crash happened.  I'm freaking out because I have 4 years of photos from the birth of my son.  If I can't get iPhoto working, I have no idea how to get my photos restored.
    <sigh>

  • I have pages version 2.1 for the i pad. When I try to open pages documents on my mac it says You need a newer version of Pages to open this document. I have updated to the very latest Pages for mac version 4.3. Cant figure it out.

    I have Pages version 2.1 for the i-pad. I have Pages on my Macbook, version 4.3. When I try to ipen a doc on my Mac it says I need a newer version to open this doc. There is no newer version. I need these docs in a bad way and cant get to them on the Mac. Any ideas?

    IOS Pages 2.0 and 2.1 implement an entirely incompatible document format with Pages ’09 v4.3. It cannot open them, and you are then prompted to update to Pages v5+ which is compatible with your IOS Pages.
    Unfortunately, updating to Pages v5+ is a bad thing, as it is a brand new application that has omitted over 90+ features from Pages ’09 v4.3. When you update to Pages v5+, it will move your old still functional version of the earlier Pages into /Applications/iWork. Aside from all the missing functionality, Pages v5+ will likely damage older documents that depend on specific Pages ’09 v4.3 features (including AppleScript and custom Templates).
    Oh, by the way, the older and new Pages documents have the same filename extension (.pages) making document organization difficult without applying different tag colors to old and new documents.
    We are recommending that users remain on their earlier Pages version. You may have to export documents from IOS Pages as Word .docx to avoid the OS X Pages update notice.

    I recently downloaded acrobat reader dc. After download was complete, I could not open PDF files. Error read "Adobe acrobat reader DC could not open this file because its either not a supported file or the file has been damaged". Any suggestions?

    HI davidd92392148,
    Is this error occurring for all PDF files that you try to open? There is an issue where all file icons can change to the PDF icon after installation, so is it possible that the files you're trying to open have been affected by this issue (and aren't actually PDF files)? Please see Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon.
    If that document isn't the key, then please tell us more about these files. Where are they stored? Did they open in previous versions of Reader?
    Best,
    Sara

  • How do I make it where I can open my books in IBooks without having a wifi connection? They are already in there, but won't open when I am without connection.

    HHow do you open books in IBooks without a wifi connection? I used the open in iBooks option when downloading a ePub doc. Won't open without the wifi.

    Yes, you would need an internet connection to download. Once that's done and you've opened the epub in iBooks the first time, you should not need WiFi again.
