Updated to latest version of yosemite and iPhoto does not work

we updated our computer to the latest version of yosemite and the iPhoto icon was not usable. The new photo app said it was downloading photo library but never got beyond 11% even after 2 hours. What should we do? We already got rid of iPhoto (as suggested on another website) and now are unable to find and/or download iPhoto. Please help

Please carefully read this article .

  • I updated to latest version of iTunes and it isn't working.  What do I do?

    I downloaded iTunes update 12.0.1 to my Windows 8 computer, and it did not open when I finished.  It gave an error message that it cannot find iTunes.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes 2 or 3 times.  I'm afraid I lost all my music.  It still opens with the same error message.  How do I get iTunes back?

    Actually, Chris, I found that page yesterday on my own doing a search, before I wrote my post.  After your instructions didn't work, I found that page and tried deleting the iAdcore.dll and that did not work.  When I tried to open it said it didn't have the iAdcore and could not be opened.  There was no QTMovieWin there to delete.  I again uninstalled everything in the order listed on this new page, because there were 7 things to uninstall (not 5 as your last page suggested).  I found that I had iCloud so that was deleted in the proper order.  Did not have MobileMe on the computer.  Also deleted Apple Application support, which wasn't on your list either.  I restarted the computer.  I looked for any files on drive C program files as indicated, and did not find any of those files.  I went to the iTunes page and downloaded the latest version yet again (maybe the 5th time?).  And I got the same notice:
    "The  iTunes Library.itl cannot be found or created.  The default location for this file is in the iTunes folder in the music folder."
    I went to that iTunes folder in the music folder there are a number of iTunes library folders and none of the open except one.  The ones that don't open give me the same dialogue box as above.  The last folder opens to a page of codes, I guess that's what it is.  Gobbeldy gook to me.  But that folder is listed at the top in the URL as itTunes Library.xml.  I don't see any .itl.  Is that the folder I need?  And how do I get that??
    I don't know if that last paragraph is significant, but I thought I'd include just in case it is.
    BTW, can I just download an older version of iTunes?  And how can I find it?  I still have the old version on my old computer which is at home.  Not sure how to get it from that to this one.
    Thanks for hanging in there with me.  Perhaps there is someone else who could help if you can't figure it out.

  • Update to Yosemite now iPhoto does not work

    Upgraded to Yosemite. Now the iPhoto says that I need to upgrade to the latest version. It goes on to say that "The version of iPhoto installed on this Mac is not compatible with OS X Yosemite. Download the latest version for free from the Mac App Store". I then search the app store and it says "The item you've requested is not currently available in the Canadian Store". What do I do? Thank you for any help.

    Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
    If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
    Install the App from the App Store.
    Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

    One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
    iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.

  • I keep trying to install the latest version of firefox and it's not working

    I'm running firefox 3.something, I think, and I keep trying to install the latest version on my mac. I go through saving it, opening it, dragging the icon to my apps file...and when I drag it to my apps file it takes a few seconds to do *something*, pings at me and then...nothing after that. I try to open it and it tells me I have to close firefox first, so I do (restart even) and when it opens again it still opens the old version.

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    *Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    *Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    *Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data if you uninstall and (re)install Firefox.

  • Ever since I downloaded the latest version of firefox, my touchpad does not work on my laptop

    This only happens when using Firefox. The touchpad works just fine for other programs. If I plug in a mouse, I can browse as usual.

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information such as bookmarks and history.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • IPhoto does not work under Yosemite

    I just installed Yosemite and iPhoto does not seem to be working. It says that I have to update iPhoto and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?

    and that I can search for the newest version in the app store, however, once I try to update and enter my Apple ID and password, nothing happens?
    Which version of iPhoto do you have?
    If your version of iPhoto is not an iPhoto '11 version but iPhoto `09 or earlier, you cannot update iPhoto but need to buy the upgrade.
    In that case   go straight for the "Featured" tab of the App Store, enter iPhoto into the search field and buy iPhoto 9.6.

  • I can not download the last Iphoto update, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    I can not download the last Iphoto update that I already purchased it by app store, and in the actual version 9.4.3 it does not work the sending photos by e-mail.

    Thanks for your replay,
    Finally the Iphoto 9.5 was installed...any way ..I had to go to app store to purchase it because the previous version did not updated autimatically... only shoed me that there is a new version ...but it guided me to the app store to purchase it.... and I did it because I did not know that the up date was free...and the sistem did not adviced me about that...
    I have the last up date of os x 10.9 already...
    in this new version I have no problem to send the photos by e-mail... but in the previous one it allways showed me an error message like ¨I should try later because the server does not work¨  but I tryed with 4 differents e-mail account that worked perfectly in the app Mail.
    any way, this new version is ok..
    thenks a lot

    Perhaps check to see if you're accidentally running two different versions of iTunes. There's some information on troubleshooting that in the Opening iTunes section of the following document:
