Why won't iPhoto 9.1.5 update to 9.2

I'm trying to update my iphoto from 9.1.5 to 9.2 and it keepds giving me the message that it is the current verision.  I wont be able to use icloud until i update. Please help

Not sure if you still need an answer, but I had the exact same problem, and here was the solution that worked for me:
Your iPhoto app has to be in your "Applications" folder.  It can't be in a subfolder that you created.  As soon as I moved iPhoto out of the subfolder and back into the main Applications folder, clicking on Software Update from the Apple menu recognized it right away and updated to version 9.2.
I'm running Lion 10.7.2 and iLife 11 was pre-installed.
Hope this helps.

  • WHY WON'T MY COMPUTER ACCEPT LATEST UPDATE

    FIREFOX COMES ON MY SCREEN WITH A NEW UPDATE AND IT HIGHLY RECCOMENDS I DO SO . I AGREE BUT IT REFUSES TO ACCEPT MY UPDATE. WHY WON'T IT ACCEPT THE NEW UPDATE??

    I tried creating the new user account but that didn't change anything. Neither did updating to OS X 10.4.3. It just doesn't make sense because I've had the same thing happen with tv dvd players not being able to play stuff but all the computers can and stuff like that, but my dad's computer, which is the same model as mine, can play it and mine can't. It just keeps spitting it right back out. :\ Any more suggestions? I bought the extended warranty, I might try giving Apple a call.

  • HT4591 Why won't Motion give me the update to 5.0.7?

    I'm running Snow Leopard and Motion 5.0.4. Software Update doesn't list anything for Motion, but the release notes say it's up to 5.0.7! Why won't Motion give me the update to 5.0.7?

    Thanks! The problem I had was that I simply needed to download a new version from the App Store. I had honestly completely forgotten about the App Store. I'm on 5.0.7 now.

  • Why won't iPhoto 11 in Mavericks open or create books, cards, etc?

    Why won't iPhoto 11 in Mavericks open or create books, cards, etc? I can't open existing projects or create new ones. Nothing happens when I try to open a project: alsop, nothing happens when I click 'Create' when trying a make a card, book, etc. All very frustrating.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
    Post back with the result.

  • Why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks

    why won't iPhoto download after i have bought it from the app store and installed mavericks?

    Sorry no mind readers here so you have to tell us details, context and any error messages - just stating an abstract problem that could have thousands of causes is not enough
    What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what has changed since it worked? How are you trying to open it (clicking on the icon in the Dock, double clicking on the application in the applications folder, ???)?
    Anything else you can tell a total stranger who can not see you or your computer to let them assist you?

  • Why won't my iOS 7.03 update load on my iPad?

    Why won't my iOS 7.03 update load on my iPad? It has said 1 minute remaining for 4-5 days. It may have not had enough room at first, but I deleted a bunch of apps so that now I have 7 GBs free.

    If you can, try loading the iOS update using iTunes on your computer.

    First, confirm that you really do have an iPhone 3GS and not a 3G:

    If you really do have a 3GS, make sure you have the latest version of iTunes, 10.7, on your computer.

  • Why won't iPhoto or iMovie updates work after Mavericks update?

    Following updating to Mavericks the App Store lists two necessray updates - IPhoto and iMovie. However when I try and update I get an error message saying that they cant be updated from this apple ID. I originally installed them back in the days when I was running Leopard from a CD - No problems since then, but now apparently no go...
    Both still work in their current form.
    iPhoto 11 ver 9.4.3
    iMovie 11 ver 9.0.9
    Any ideas?

    The updates/replacements for the iLife and iWork apps are free from the App Store. However, you may have to completely delete the apps to get the free download. NOTE the free iWork (Pages, Keynote, and Numbers) have a reduced feature set similar to the iOS and iCloud versions.

  • Why won't iPhoto update since downloading Yosemite?

    Hi,
    I downloaded Yosemite recently (maybe a week ago), and when I tried to open iPhoto from the apps folder, the icon had a circle with a slash through it. I clicked on it, the message popped up that I needed to update. This then took me to the Apps store, where I saw that all my iWorks apps needed updating. Once I clicked Update all, I received the message...
    I don't understand what that means. All of the apps were on the my Macbook when I bought it and they've had no issues updating up until now. The last version of my iPhoto is 9.2.3, if that means anything.
    Thanks for all help.

    With Yosemite you need to update to iPhoto 9.6.
    The error message means, that iPhoto is not associated with your AppleID and so you cannot update it. Check, if iPhoto is showing on the "Purchased" tab of the AppStore. If there is an "Accept" button, press it.
    Accepting associates your Apple ID with the preinstalled iPhoto. It should move iPhoto from the "Accept" portion of the App Store to the "Purchased" tab. After that, you should be able to update iPhoto from the Updates tab of the AppStore.
    If you do you not see the update there, try to buy iPhoto. iPhoto may show for free, so you do not have to pay again.
    Backup your iPhoto library, if you do not have a current backup.
    Uninstall iPhoto by deleting it from the Applications folder, otherwise you cannot buy it again. But do not empty the Trash, so you can put iPhoto back, if need be.
    Launch the App Store, click the "Store" menu, and sign in with your current AppleID.
    Open the main page "Featured" of the App Store and search for iPhoto.
    If iPhoto is listed as "Free", click the "Free" button to buy it with your current AppleID.
    If it is not showing as free, there is no help but contacting the App Store Support to sort out the AppleID. Use this link: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/contact/
    After you update iPhoto, your iPhoto Library will need upgrading. Make a backup of your iPhoto Library, before you open iPhoto the first time after updating.

  • Why won't iphoto respond?

    My iphoto opens, but does not "respond". It has the loading rainbow swirl going for a long time, and it won't open iphoto. I tried to update the software by going to "Software update", and so far everything is up to date. I don't know what else to do. Help me please.
    Thank you.

    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, 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.

  • Why won't iPhoto '11 display CR2 tags for Canon 7D raw files

    iPhoto '11 won't display CR2 tags for the raw files from my Canon 7D. I didn't have any problem with my Rebel ST or any previous version of iPhoto.
    Any help to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    Allan

    What a pity you didn't make the clear in your initial post. Would have saved us both some time.
    It might also help to clarify some terminology. What you are calling the "image file number" is the Title of the photo. When you haven't added a tite, iPhoto uses the filename.
    You can easily sort Raws from jpegs as Raws are automatically tagged with a keyword on import. So a quick smart album will tell them apart.
    As to why it hasn't been fixed, you will have to ask Apple that question, no one here knows and Apple aren't here.
