What do I have to do to bring iPhoto up so that I can use the program?

This morning we received a software update for iPhoto (36MB) immediately after this download and installation we received a second software update for iPhoto (57.7MB). Shortly after finishing the second update I tried to open iPhoto to work on a slideshow of holiday activities.
I went to:
Dock > iPhoto
Message: " The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto."
upgrade ( I clicked on the upgrade button)
"Loading photos... " " Examining Photo Library "
Everything stopped.
New screen: " There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto Library folder. >Finder, >iPhoto Library, >get info., ... check read/write permissions."
I proceeded as directed. Permissions were all read/write for the iPhoto Library folder.
I went back to iPhoto... repeat of problem.
What do I have to do to bring iPhoto up so that I can use the program.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What was updated and did you repair disk permissions after it was completed?
As a first fix attempt download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administartive name in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB file backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I have CS 6 which requests I sign in to access my serial numbers, which I have already, and it fails to connect so that I cannot use the programs. How do I get past this, is there a direct line to customer support?

Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

Is there going to be a firmware upgrade for mountain lion customers that have a Macbook with a soild state drive so we can use the Power Nap feature?

here: http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/
"Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.

I don't have a wireless printer, and want to print things off of my iPad. I know that I can use the iPad Camera Connection kit to connect USB devices like keyboards and I am wondering if I could do the same with a USB printer.

I don't think you can connect a printer since you won't have the printer drivers. I use FingerPrint from collobos.com to print to my non-AirPrint printers.

I have finally figured out how to export an iphoto album so that I can maintain the proper order of the photos after burning the file. How do I keep each individual photo title and description after exporting and burning?

I have finally figured out how to export an iphoto album so that I can maintain the proper order of the photos after burning the file. How do I keep each individual photo title and description after exporting and burning? Presently after exporting and burning each photo is identified by the file name rather than each individual title description.

File name and Title are not the same thing.
Filename is attached to the Jpeg file in the Finder.
Title is attached to the photo within the Jpeg file - as is the description. These are written to the Exif and IPTC metadata on export.
So: File -> Export. Kind: Jpeg or Tiff and Check the box at 'Title and Keywords'. This will write the Title, keywords and descriptions (though not explicitly stated) to the metadata. This can then be viewed in any app that understand this material.
You can choose, if you wish, to also use the Title as a Filename - that's an option at File Name

How do I find out what year my MacBook Pro is? I want to know if I can use the mirroring function with my Apple TV if I download Mountain Lion.

I'm trying to find out if I can use the mirror function to look at large construction drawings using my Apple TV. It says that my MacBook Pro has to be early 2011 or newer and I can't remember what it is.

I am going to replace my 3 year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro Retina display machine. I have been told by Apple that I can use the Migration Assistant ON MY WIRELESS NETWORK (no cables) to transfer data... I've read this can take AGES.. True?

I am planning to replace my 3+ year old MacBook Pro with a new MacBook Pro, Retina display... I have been told by "chat" on the Apple site that I can transfer my data wirelessly... on my network.. Is is a good option? I don't want to invest in cables if I can help it... since the old machine has firewire and the new one has thunderbolt! Will the wireless transfer take forever... as in 30-50 hours??? I've been hearing these horror stories...

Wow, shocking in comparison. You have the patience of a Saint !

I bought my iPhone 4 almost a year ago. I also bought a new FOrd 150 with sync. technology. I have been able to sync to my husband's Blackberry, but still have not been able to input the sync. code my Ford is asking me for so that I can use the phone sync

My phone is in bluetooth when I try to add a phone, but I can't find instructions on how to put in the PIN number to activate sync. in the truck. It is supposed to be simple. THe people @ Verizon told me they can't help. Can you give me the instructions? THey are not in the manual. OR do I have to go to Ford and have them sync. it for me for a fee, I am sure. When the dealership sync'd by Blackberry, it was free, but that is because I just bought a new truck. HELP!

You need to get the owner's manual for your Ford's bluetooth system to see how to put your system into discovery mode for the iPhone as well as the appropriate steps to take.
In addition, you should see if the iPhone is supported.

I have FCP 5 Is there a Motion app that I can use with this version?

I have FCP 5. Is Motion available for this FCP version?
If so, where would I find it?

Motion 2.0 was paired with FCP 5. Final Cut Studio 1 included both. When Apple switched to Intel processors, they released FCP 5.1 and Motion 2.1 as an Intel compatible "cross grade". FCS2 had FCP 6 and Motion 3. FCS3 is Motion 4 and FCP 7.

I have lost my iphone 3. I have placed it in Lost Mode however it is only showing my last location at 7 pm last night. How can i see the last 24 hours? it is in Grey so not on..

Find My iPhone only keeps a history of locations after you put it in lost mode. It also has to be online to provide an updated location.

I would ask in the ExportPDF forum, Adobe ExportPDF (read only) (assuming that's the service to which you have subscribed). This is the Reader one.

Close and restart Photoshop if you have not already done so.
In Photoshop, go to the Help - About Plug-in... menu then choose Camera Raw. What version does it say there?

FaceTime:
Check Settings>FaceTime>ON and check Settings>General>Restrictions>FaceTime>ON. There is no icon, on the 4 & 4S FaceTime is accessed through contacts. Go into your Contacts, access the contact you want to FaceTime with and you will see a tab at the bottom of their contact card. You can also access FaceTime by going into your Phone app, select dialling keypad, dial number, press call and an option for FaceTime on the keypad will appear. It should be noted that FaceTime has been removed from iPhones sold in some Middle Eastern countries at the express wish of the respective Governments.
iMessage:
Check Settings>Messages>iMessage>ON. The icon is the same as your SMS icon. This support document will explain how to use iMessage http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3529
