Will iphoto 9.5 for Mavericks be compatible to 9.4.3 for Mountain lion?

Hi,
I have an Macbook air early 2008, which will just not be comaptible with mavericks (which i do absolutely not understand! please apple - let user try themselves, if it runs!) - if I now update my imac to mavericks I must use 9.5 iphoto - can I use the libs from that with my macbooc air running iphoto 9.4.3 on mountain lion?
thank you!

If you haven't already figured it out -- the answer is no. I already made this mistake ... I can now only open my iPhoto library on my "Mavericks" MacBook. I'm non-plussed that an incremental app upgrade comes with yet another new database/library that isn't backward compatible.

  • Will iphoto be available for ipod touch? if so when?

    will iphoto be available for ipod touch? if so when?

    Folks on this forum are only users and not employees of Apple. No one here would know if a version of iPhoto for iOS was in the works for presently unsupported devices. I suspect that there will be no iPhoto for those older devices but I have no way to know really.

  • With the current up coming addition of Maverick will Apple still support and put out Updates for Mountain Lion?

    With the current up coming addition of Maverick OS will Apple still support and put out Updates out for Mountain Lion? I want to make sure my computer will still be secured.

    I'm sure that Apple will continue to provide support for Mountain Lion and other previous versions of their operating system. They have always provided updates for most versions of their software, even though newer versions were released.

  • Purchasing iphoto v9.4.3 for mountain lion

    Hi-
    I have given up trying to upgrade my iphoto 9.3 to 9.4.3 for mountain lion.  I have tried (a) Apple-Software Updates... and (b) going directly to http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1650.  Neither works, The first one doesnt list the update as an option and the second approach directs me to the app store for my update after i click on the downloaded 9.4.3pkg file.  In the app store there are no compatible updates.  Frustrating!
    So, how can i do a fresh install of iPhoto 9.4.3?  I am happy to pay for it again, but where do i find it for purchase?
    Thanks.

    It is no longer available. The udate you downloaded is most likely an update to the former DVD based app and as you found out, diesn't update the Mac App Store (MAS) version because they aren't exactly the same app. You will not be able to update your older version.
    If your Mac can run Mt Lion, then it can run Mavericks. Why not upgrade your OS and then you can upgrade to the Mavericks versions available in the MAS.

  • Any Idea when Apple will email the redemption code for Mountain Lion?

    Any Idea when Apple will email the redemption code for Mountain Lion? I got a code but it said it was invalid on the app store. When will this issue be solved? Kind of getting impatient, given I dropped 2k over their product...

    Now what to do help me please

    iCloud isn't syncing them on your phone.  You simply added the email account to your phone and enabled calendar and notes syncing with the email provider, and the calendar and notes appear in the calendar and notes apps on your phone.  You can do this with Gmail, Yahoo and other IMAP account.  iCloud email is just another IMAP account, but syncs notes with Apple's iCloud server just as Gmail syncs notes and calendars with Google's server.
    iCloud didnt' set up a non-iCloud account on your Mac.  When you check Mail in System Preferences>iCloud, it only creates an iCloud email account.  You can also add other email accounts to your Mac by going to System Preferences>Mail,Contacts,Calendars and clicking on the "+" sign on the bottom of the left sidebar.  If you added these other email accounts to your Mac before you upgraded to Mountain Lion, these were simply maintained on your Mac after you upgraded.

  • Updated my mac to mountain lion 10.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install? Can anyone help me?

    updated my mac to mountain lion 10.7.8.3 and now my app store, mail or facetime won't open. Also, I am not longer able to play videos through firefox. I tried downloading the combo for mountain lion and it refuses to install saying that I need to see developer. Whenever I try to open my appstore, mail or facetime it says that the programmes need to be installed and might not be compatible with this version of mac operating system. Can anyone help me?

    It's not a bad install of Mountain Lion. I've had the same thing happen to me, but it affected not only Mail, but a variety of other programs including iPhoto and MS Office, where I had to delete preferences, caches, and reinstall the OS as well as the program itself. I'm still having issues with Mail, so I've gone to another program.
    Everything was fine upon the initial install. I restarted my iMac about two weeks after the install, and that's when the issues began to happen. I've reinstalled Mountain Lion twice, but the same issues arise.
    As I mentioned above, you'll need to figure out which preferences are causing the issue, then reinstall the program, as a fresh reinstallation will do you no good unless you wipe the drive completely.
    Here's a thread that helped me with iPhoto:

  • Is it possible to upgrade to lion or do I have to wait for mountain lion?

    Is it possible to  still upgrade to Lion or do I have to wait for Mountain Lion later in July?  I currently have Snow Leopard and upgraded RAM to 4GB on an older iMac Core Duo in order to use iCloud features in Lion.  Also, I'm wanting to upgrade iMovie and iPhoto, but I'm having difficulty finding a download link that will let me do it online without going through the App Store, and it says I need to be running 10.7.  I feel like I'm in an "obsolete" double bind until I upgrade to Mountain Lion and it isn't possible yet.  I'm wanting to use iMovie 8 or higher in order to download AVCHD video.  I just bought a new camera that shoots AVCHD and I can't download any HD video,  nor can I find any of my old video which used to be on iPhoto and would open w/ Quick Time.  User friendly Mac is no longer so intuitive.

    Yes, you can purchase Lion as well as iPhoto and iMovie from the App Store. But before you can do that you must update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 by installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update. Then you can sign into the App Store with your Apple ID and password, locate the items you want, purchase them, and download them to your computer.

    There is no software download for this printer.  It will all come through Apple Software Updates.  Most likely you are getting that message because the list of compatible devices needs to be updated.  You can find out more about this and how to correct it from the links below.  Let me know how it turns out.

  • So I buy Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Lepoard. and my Mac will be able to download 11.05 itunes update correct? Or will I have to buy the upgrades all the way to OS X Mountain Lion?

    and my Mac will be able to download 11.05 itunes update correct? Or will I have to buy the upgrades all the way to OS X Mountain Lion? All I want to do is confirm that if i get this upgrade my new ipad will be able to connect to my itunes!

    Yes, assuming you are not already running 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 Mountain Lion 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.

  • I have recently bought my Mac mini ( July 12) and have already requested my free update code for mountain lion, got a reference nr, but I still haven't received a code via email to update? Its been 12 days. Any advice?

    I have recently bought my Mac mini ( July 12) and have already requested my free update code for mountain lion, got a reference nr, but I still haven't received a code via email to update with? Its been 12 days. Any advice?

    I am still in the return window but i really do not want to return my mac as i know it has the ability to do what i want, my problem is just finding the software that will work as i know there has been a lot of complications with OS X Mountain Lion with softwares that caim to be compatible but then later turn out not to be.
    I have been a windows user for years and this is really my first mac but apart from the hole software issue i find the mac 10x better than any windows computer i have ever used. For example i bought a HP laptop 4 weeks ago and has nothing but problems. At first the fans stopped working and making weird noises and then it began switching off when ever it felt like it and freezing like mad when i was trying to access the smallest program. I have found that now a days you dont get what you pay for with Windows especially since Windows 8 was released. Also Laptops such as HP now are just crammed with cheap parts, they dont take pride in their systems like they once used to unlike Apple. I know i will get more than a year or 2 out my mac (hopefully a lot more) but with windows systems it just seems to break all the time costing more money on extending warrantys. Also i like mac because i dont need to send it away if i ever get a problem, i can just take it into the apple shop half a mile down the road and they will fix it in store. Where as with windows i am waiting 2 weeks+ to just hear back from them.

  • How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • I am running version 10.7.5 on my MacBook Pro. Can I upgrade irectly to Mavericks or do I have to upgrade to Mountain Lion first, then Mavericks

    I am running version 10.7.5 on my MacBook Pro. can I upgrade directly to Mavericks or do I have to upgrade to Mountain Lion first, then Mavericks?

    As long as your MacBook Pro is in the ML compatible list, http://www.apple.com/osx/specs it is compatible with Mavericks and you can go directly to Mavericks.

  • How do I download Safari for Mountain Lion?

    How do I download Safari for Mountain Lion? It's not in the App Store, it is nowhere on the Apple website . . . OK, so I guess it is supposed to be part of Mountain Lion, but I am running Mountain Lion and whatever version of Safari I ended up with would not even run at all . . .  so I trashed it (or at least what part of it I was allowed to trash) and though reinstalling it would be a good idea . . . but I can't find one to reinstall. The latest version I can find is for Leopard, and of course that won't run.
    Not to mention that since getting Mt Lion, iPhoto won't run . . . it produces an error message saying I need to check with the developer to make sure it runs with this version of OS X! So I wonder who the developer of iPhoto is, who produces software that is incompatible with Mt Lion???
    And even in submitting this there is no option to tag it for any OS later than 10.7.4!!

    Since Safari is crashing, post a crash report...   reinstalling the OS X rarely helps a browser crash issue.
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
    Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.
    Please include the "binary images" section...

  • I have installed mountain lion on my early 2009 macbook (not unibody) and it is terrible, it's like owning a windows pc again (almost) What can I do? I paid for mountain lion, is there any way of giving it back and getting a refund?

    I have installed mountain lion on my early 2009 macbook (not unibody) and it is terrible, it's like owning a windows pc again (almost) What can I do? I paid for mountain lion, is there any way of giving it back and getting a refund? obvisoulsy after unintalling it. I couldn't see any reason why it would be bad for my particular macbook, and it downloaded without a problem.

    In what way is it terrible? Mountain Lion is pretty stable. If you are having problems, most likely they are unique to your particular system and can be fixed. If you don't like some of the new features, that does not constitute reason for a refund.
    If that does not suit you, you will have to discuss a refund with Apple, as they are the only ones who can say. Note that the App Store terms do say that all sales are final, so you are not guaranteed a refund, especially since whatever problems you had are not due to defective software.

  • I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with bootcamp 3.3 on my Imac 2011. I need to updgrade to mountain lion. If I first upgrade to mountain lion, how do I go about upgrading from bootcamp 3.3 to latest bootcamp for mountain lion?

    I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with bootcamp 3.3 on my Imac 2011. I need to updgrade to mountain lion. If I first upgrade to mountain lion, how do I go about upgrading from bootcamp 3.3 to latest bootcamp for mountain lion?
    I have seen a lot of discussions upgrading from Boot Camp 4 to 5 but no answers upgrading from boot camp 3.3 to 5. My worry is that if I upgrade from snow leopard to mountain lion, that my bootcamp partition will no longer be able to boot up. There seem to be a lot of threads suggesting problems that are possible. Has anyone gone through this upgrade with success?

    Before doing any installation restart OSX from your 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD and use Disk Utility to Both Repair The Disk and Repair the Permissions of your Macintosh HD.
    Next remove your Snow Leopard DVD and restart your iMac into OSX.
    Update to the latest version of OS X Snow Leopard by clicking the Apple icon and choose Software Update to install Snow Leopard v10.6.8, the latest version.
    Use Time Machine to make a Full Backup of your Macintosh HD.
    Shut down and restart into Windows by holding the Option key at the chime and selecting Windows.
    Now use Windows Backup to make a Full Image Backup of your Windows Installation to a removable drive.
    Shut Down and Boot back into OSX.
    Open the Mac App Store from your Dock to buy and download Mountain Lion. Then follow the onscreen instructions to install it.
    Upgrading your OSX to 10.8 should not effect the Windows Partition at all since you are only upgrading the Mac side. You should not have to run the Boot Camp Assitant 5 Utility in OSX at all.
    Your Boot Camp 3.3 Windows Support Drivers et. al only effect your Windows installation and should continue to run fine after upgrading.
    Which version of Windows do you already have installed on the existing Boot Camp Partition?
    Is it 32 bit or 64 bit?
