Upgrading from older version of iPhoto

I recently installed the new OSX 10.4.6 on my iMac G4. I am running iTunes 6 just fine but I tried to install iPhoto 6 (I am somehow still running iPhoto2) and the installer process stoppe and said it couldnt install because there was "no eligible iPhoto application"
I was told in the store that all you had to have was iTunes 6 and you could put pictures from iPhoto on the iPod (nano) but when I try it says my iphoto version wont support this.
Do I have too old a version of iPhoto?
Should there be a way to update iPhoto to 6 w/o buying iLife for 100 bucks?
Help is appreciated
thanks

iPhoto 6 is only available thru the purchase of iLife 06. ITunes is free as it's really to get users to by music from the iTMS.
The update package you tried to use will only work on iPhoto 6.0 or highter.
If you look at the iPhoto 6 pages at Apple's site you'll see that it is very far advanced from the V2. And with Tiger it's even more so.
The only way to get iLife 06 is either via purchase or with the purchase of a new Mac.
You do not need iPhoto to put photos on your iPod. You can do it this way:
1 - select the photos you want and export to a folder on your HD. I named mine "Nano Pics" and it's located in my Pictures folder.
2 - with your iPod connected go to the iTunes preferences for the iPod. There under the Photos section you can choose any folder on the HD as the source of the photos for the iPod. Navigate to your folder and select it.
When you want to add or remove photos do it via iPhoto exports and the Finder.

Upgrading from older version

I have an application developed in Dreamweaver / Ultradev
version 4. This application continues to run on Server 2003 and has
not required any major changes in the last few years so we did not
upgrade the application.
However, we are now needing to make some changes to this
application and I am considering upgrading this web app to the
current version of Dreamweaver. This is a very basic application,
reading and writing to a database, using MM functions.
I would appreciate anyone's thoughts and/or experiences when
upgrading Dreamweaver application. Any "gotchas", "known issues",
or other suggestions that would simplify the upgrade. I will need
to estimate the amount of time to complete the upgrade so
information that you could share would be beneficial.
Thanks!

You're going a long way. Your recordsets would have to be
remade which
doesn't take long due to the 8.2 rewrite for protection from
SQL injection
attacks. You didn't specify the server model .. if it's Cold
Fusion, there
is a lot in DW to keep up with newer Cold Fusion. If ASP, not
that much is
different. You can now develop with PHP/MySql that you
couldn't in UD4.
Another big bonus for you would be all the CSS improvements
.. 3 rewrites
since UD4 .. you would be amazed at the difference in actual
design of the
site.

New used computer doesn't have iPhoto so can't transfer pictures from old computer without upgrading new one. Is there a way to download an older version of iPhoto?

I can't access any of my iPhoto pictures from my old computer since the new (used) computer I got doesn't have it. The new one is a newer version but the applestore only has the iLife 11 which would need me to upgrade. I'm not against upgrading I really just want to access these photos. I used an external harddrive to store the pictures from my old computer and am assuming that the only reason they're not showing up on the new one is because it doesn't have the applicatin (makes sense).
Is there a way to get an older version of iPhoto?
The pictures from iPhoto that are on the external harddrive will show up if i had to the application right? Will they show up on a newer version of iphoto even though they're originally from an older version?
Ahh sorry if this is confusing I'm just really frustrated at technology right now..../////

Is there a way to get an older version of iPhoto?
I suggest you don't do that. There is no guarantee it will work right with a more recent OS.
Install the correct version of iPhoto for the version of Mac OS X you are running. (Which is what?) The folks here will tell you how to get to the Library on the external drive when you provide more info about your computer.

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
how is the EHD where the library is located formatted?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

How do I restore an older version of iPhoto from App Store?

Hello,
My MacBook Pro brok down and the hard drive was completely erased. Now I had a new hard drive and the OS X 10.7.5 was reinstalled, but my iPhoto and other iLife applications were gone. I followed this instruction below and did see iPhoto for me to accept. But I got a message saying that iPhoto can’t be installed on my computer "because Mac OS X version 10.9 or later is required." To avoid other complications, I don't want to upgrade to 10.9. What can I do to get my older version of iPhoto back? Thank you.
Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X
If your computer came with OS X Lion or later and you erase your hard disk and install OS X, you can download iPhoto, iMovie, and GarageBand from the Mac App Store.
After installation, start (up) from OS X.
Double-click the App Store icon in the dock.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Click Purchases.
If you haven't previously accepted your bundled iLife applications within the Mac App Store, you should see your iLife applications appear in the Accept portion of the screen. Click Accept.
You may be asked for your Apple ID and password once again. Your iLife applications now move to the Purchased section. These applications are part of the software that came with your computer. Your account will not be charged for them. Click Install to complete installation of your applications.

reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer
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

What version do you have?

I have recently updated to iPhoto 9.2.1, more by accident I guess. In the older version off iPhoto when I imported photos and gave the event his own name, this name was also used in the "masterfile"

I have recently updated to iPhoto 9.2.1, more by accident I guess. In the older version of iPhoto when I imported photos and gave the event his own name (for exampample "110723 birthday son 2011"), this name was also used in the "masterfile", so I could find the file by his name ("110723 birthday son 2011") in the "masterfile" on my HD and copy and paste it from there to other computers.
In the new version the file gets stored under a seemingly random number, which does not give me any information about the content.
Is there a way to fix this? Would it be different in apperture?
Thanks

I have Iphoto '09, version 8.1.2 (424). I am having an identical problem. All my pictures are imported into Iphoto when I downloaded them from my camera. Until recently, I thought that the pictures were actually saved in the library. Since I need to crop my pictures for the web, and Iphoto doesn't do that, I purchased Photoshop Elements to do that. To my surprise, when I try to get a picture from Iphoto to Photoshop, it can't be done. That was when I realized, after wasting a lot of time, that the photos are not in the Iphoto library.
I started naming the pictures on Iphoto so I had a recognizable file name to open on Photoshop. Couldn't find it. I looked in the Backup folder and the Transfer software folder (I have a Nikon camera), and the names I entered in the Iphoto display, could not be found.
When I am trying to upload a photo to the web, I get the Finder folder showing with an active folder called "Photos" under "Media", which only displays Iphoto and PhotoBooth. This is a folder name that I cannot find in my HD anywhere when I look for it. If I edit a picture with Photoshop, I am not going to save it back to Iphoto (not sure whether it will work properly). How do I get my folder of edited photos to show when I want to upload a picture to the web?
Where (the name of the folder) do I find the pictures I see displayed on the Iphoto library, including any name changes, keywords added, and so on?

Older versions of iPhoto

hi,
after updating my iphoto to 9.4.2, I lost a lot of stuff from my book projects... it was working fine before I updated with version 9.1.2
I would like to restore version 9.1.2 and delete the update. I tried using Time machine.. it seems to install fine until I started iphoto and got the following message
iPhoto cannot be opened because of a problem.
Check with the developer to make sure iPhoto works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X.
Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple.
Does anybody know how to restore older versions?? or a suggestion on how I get the books back to the original format??
deeply grateful to anyone who can help... its deperate!!

You will have to reinsatll the older version of iPhoto and restore the library to that same version from your backups, i.e. like from Time Machine.
Have you tried rebuilding/repairing your library as follows: make a temporary, backup copy of the library if you don't already have one (Control-click on the library and select Duplicate from the contextual menu) and try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Since only one option can be run at a time start with #3 followed by #4 and #1 as needed.

Can older versions of iPhoto be found and installed?

The BF destroyed his MacBook - just purchased a refurbished MacBook with 10.5 installed, but NOT with iLife...so no iPhoto, either. Is there a way to get iPhoto installed, as it's not currently available for purchase?

The only legal way to install an older version of iPhoto is from an appropriate iLIfe install disk. Do not download an iPhoto 09, 08, 6 etc. You simply have no idea what you're getting.

Where can I download older versions of iPhoto e.g. 9.4?

AS the owner of an older mac I sometimes want to upgrade software, but not necessarily to the latest version. AT the moment I'd like to upgrade iphoto to 9.4 so I can use the icloud sharing of images. IS it possible and if so where can I get these versions?

Depends on what version of iPhoto and of the OS you have, wich you do not share? if you have any version of iPhoto '11 (version 9.x.x) then simply update it under updates in the App store. If you have at least OS X 10.6.8 nd an older version of iPhoto then yu must purchase an iLife '11 DVD - Amazon ro eBay are sources

I have applied a description to photos in iPhoto. When I burn the CD, the description is not included. I used to do this with an older version of iPhoto. Am I doing something wrong?

I have been organizing my photos in iPhoto and have written descriptions for them. In the past, with an older version of iPhoto, I would burn a CD. When I would put the CD back in my computer, the description would also be on the CD. Now, I am burning the CD's and there is no record of the description. This is very important as I want the information stored with the photos, both for my own reference, but also if something would happen to me my family would know who are in the photos and what the occasions were. Is there some way I can do this? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, sorry! I created an album with the photos I wanted to burn. I gave them new titles, sometimes using batch change when appropriate, otherwise individually. I then clicked on info and in the area labeled description I gave each photo a brief description. When I was done, I went to Share and clicked on burn. When prompted I inserted a blank CD-R in my external CD/DVD burner (which I need to use as my internal one has been replaced twice in less than a year and I was sick of spending $150.00 each time). When it was loaded I clicked the burn button at the bottom of iPhoto. When it was completed I reinserted it into the external CD/DVD burner/reader to see if it was successful. The photos all came up with the new title in my iPhoto library. When I click on info button, there is no description. The information about the date and place where the photo was taken is there, just not the description that I personally included.
I have not tried exporting the photos to finder and then burning as they suggest doing if you want the CD to be readable on Windows program, but I never had to do that with my old iPhoto program, so did not know if that would make a difference.
I can't think of any other information you might need, but if I missed something let me know and I will try to include it. Thanks for your interest in helping!

iLife 06 might run under 10.4 on an eMac. It's requirements are listed here: iLife '06: System Requirements. Look for a copy of either at Amazon.com or eBay.com.
