Upgrade iPhoto '09 to '11 on mavericks

My English language very poor, but I will try to tell you what is my problem
I have OS X Mavericks (10.9.5) and I want upgrade iPhoto ’09(v8.1.2) to iPhoto ’11, but the iPhoto version in the app store (iPhoto 9.6) is woking just with OS X Yosemite (10.10)
how can I find iPhoto version older than 9.6?

Buy an iLife '11 DVD. There should still be copies available at Amazon or Ebay.. It will contain an early iPhoto '11 version 9.x.x. You can update that version from Apple's Support page.
But if you can, consider upgrading to Yosemite. Then you can upgrade to iPhoto 9.6 from the App Store.

"These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."

HT201364 I upgraded my MacBook Pro with Lion (but with iphoto 9.2.1) to Maverick and now I can't open iphoto and I can't update either

I upgraded my MacBook Pro with Lion (but with iphoto 9.2.1) to Maverick and now I can't open iphoto and I can't update either - can anyone help please?

Download the iPhoto upgrade from the App Store. It should be free.
iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users. GarageBand for Mac and iOS are free for all OS X Mavericks and iOS 7 users. Additional GarageBand instruments and sounds are available for a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99 for each platform.

Not sure order: upgrade iPhoto and OS Mavericks?

So, I'm trying to figure out this order b/c I'm going in circles. I know I need to upgrade iPhoto from iphoto 11 9.3 to 9.5 before the library will work in Mavericks. BUT when I go to upgrade iPhoto, it says I have to have OS 9 or higher. I'm still on OS X 10.7.5 Lion - have option to update directly to Mavericks BUT I thought then mess up the iPhoto library?
Can you please help me get from here to there?
My Time Machine is updated to the minute, so I'm backed up. Is that sufficient or would you recommend something else?
Thanks!

Backup - upgrade your OS to Mavericks 10.9.x and then upgrade iPhoto to version 9.5.x (you can not upgrade iPhoto to 9.5.1 until after you upgrade the OS to Mavericks)

Change the language of OS in preferences for any other, reboot your mac, open mac app store and updates would show up. Somehow worked for me and my friends Then you can go back to your orginal language.

IPhoto is very slow after Mavericks upgrade

I'm running a 27" mid-2011 iMac with 4 GB memory and I've recently upgraded to OS X 10.9 (Mavericks). I've had a chance to load iPhoto 11 (9.5) a few times now and it does so slowly each time. I have about 33k+ photos/videos and they're stored on my main hard drive. Basically, iPhoto slows to a crawl and lags when I try to scroll up/down or try to view photos. In addition, my iMac exhibits the same behavior when I try to switch between applications, run Spotlight search, or load a page within my browser. Any suggestions on how to remedy this problem?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. It will be slow, but maybe not as slow.
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

How do I upgrade iPhoto after upgrading to Mavericks

how do I upgrade iPhoto after upgrading to Mavericks

Go to the App site and check for latest which is 9.6 or open iPhoto and check for updates.

Upgrade iPhoto from 8.1.2 to 9.6

I need to upgrade iPhoto from 8.1.2 to 9.6 for iCloud use.
iLife "11 is no more available, and I am afraid to loose my picts, or the key words and faces, if I install the 9.6 version and if I need to amalgamate or import my picts in the new version.
I'm distressed because I entirely do not trust iPhoto backup with Time Machine since Maverick upgrade...

I need to upgrade iPhoto from 8.1.2 to 9.6 for iCloud use.
This means you must first update your OS from 10.9 to 10.10. Thereafter you can upgrade your iPhoto to v9.6
Most Simple Back Up:
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

Before upgrading to OS X 10.9 Mavericks, you need to first purchase a retail install disc of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to install first.
If you are from Canada or France, you need to get this discs from an online Apple website in your country.
Here is the disc you need here in the U.S. Apple Store website.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
After getting this disc and installing the initial version of OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, you can use OS X Software Update feature to update to OS X 10.6.8 where that update gives you access to the Mac App Store and the free upgrade to OS X 10.9 Mavericks, if you choose.
Another thing you need to do is to upgrade the amount of system RAM in your Mac.
Currently, your Mac only has 2 GBs of RAM installed. This a bare minimum, paltry amount of RAM for running the newer versions of OS X.
Newer versions of OS X really need a real working, mimimum RAM amount of 4 GBs.
Your Mac model can take a total of 6 GBs of RAM.
I advise installing the complete total 6 GBs of RAM.
Correct and reliable Mac RAM can be purchased from online Mac RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (macsales.com).
OWC ( macsales.com) has the 6 GB RAM module kit.
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/5300DDR2S6GP/
If you are not from the U.S., OWC (macsales.com), I believe, has international shipping of their products.

Will upgrading iPhoto delete all my pictures?

Hello, I just upgraded my computer to Maverick and now iPhoto isnt working and says I need to upload. I have the upload however I was wondering if it would delete all my pictures in the process?

Hello, I just upgraded my computer to Maverick and now iPhoto isnt working and says I need to upload.
Probably the error message was to "upgrade" and not upload, right? Older versions of iPhoto are not compatible with Mavericks, and because your iPhoto library has been created by an earlier version of iPhoto, it needs to be upgraded to a new format, so iPhoto '11 can open it.
Your photos are stored in the iPhoto library and not in the iPhoto application, so upgrading to the new iPhoto version will not delete your photos. But as a precaution make a backup copy of your iPhoto library, before you let the new iPhoto upgrade it, this is best practice when upgrading software - just in case, so you can revert to the previous version if need be.
What is the iPhoto version you are upgrading from? If it is iPhoto '07 or earlier, you need to run iPhoto Library upgrader first, before you can open the library in iPhoto '11, see this document:
iPhoto '11: About the Library Upgrader

HT2638 Where is the iPhoto library on OS X mavericks??

I have recently upgraded my Mac to OS X Mavericks and I can't seem to find the iPhoto library! Can someone help me find it!

I recently recovered my Mac so I saved everything onto a hard drive.
Then that is where everything is - everything should include your iPhoto library
I have all my pictures saved on my hard drive but I would like to put them back on my Mac in iphoto library
Then if you do not have a backjup of yhour iPhoto library then you will need to start over importing these photos into a new iPhoto librbary
I saw that there is an iPhoto app that I could purchase but I don't think I should have to pay for an app that I had before the update!
If you had iPhoto '11 before the upgrade you do not need to pay for it - you reinstall it - if you did not have iPhoto '11 then you must pruchae iPhoto '11

What version of iphoto works with os x mavericks?

What version of iphoto works with os x maverick?

This screenshot shows which previous versions of iPhoto are compatible with Mavericks. It also indicates which versions qualify for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 and which require a purchase:
Note 1: every day more users are reporting problems with iPhoto 8.1.2 so I've included it in the non compatible category.
Note 2: If your previous version of iPhoto was iPhoto 7 (08) or earlier you'll need to download and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.1 application on the library before opening it with iPhoto9.5.1.

How to upgrade iPhoto for mac 7.1.5 to iPhoto 9.5

What's the easiest way to upgrade iPhoto ver. 7.1.5 to latest iPhoto ver. 9.5? Just upgraded my OSX to Mavericks. Have downloaded and run the iPhoto Library Upgrader and upgraded my iPhoto libraries. Is it easier just to buy the newest iPhoto from the app store ($14.99) and install it?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
MK

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Correct. You are using iPhoto '08, so iPhoto 9.5 is a paid upgrade for you. Open the Mac App Store and purchase iPhoto, so iPhoto 9.5 will be downloaded automatically. Then, open it and the library will be upgraded to be able to use it with iPhoto 9.5.
The Mac App Store may show you an error if you try to purchase iPhoto when you still have got the old version in the Applications folder. If this happens, delete the old version or copy it to an external disk

Upgrade IPhoto on a Mac OS X 10.5.8

upgrade Iphoto on a Mac OS X 10.5.8

First:
Upgrading to Snow Leopard
You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mavericks if your computer meets the requirements.
     Snow Leopard General Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
       2. 1GB of memory
       3. 5GB of available disk space
       4. DVD drive for installation
       5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
           fees may apply.
       6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
           terms apply.
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
    OS X Mavericks/Yosemite- System Requirements
    Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
     Are my applications compatible?
