Yosemite - iPhoto "installing"

I upgraded to Yosemite. I went into iPhoto to install the new version from the App Store, when I click "install" it asks me to verify my password and then changes to "installing" however, it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I let it sit for a day and it just stayed in the same place. I can look at my photos in iMovie but can't get it to prompt me to upgrade from there. How do I know if it's really installing and how long should this take? Should I try something else?

go to the launch pad an cancel the installation - move the iPhtoo application form the Applications folder rot th trash (wait until this is finished to empty the trash) and then go to the app store and install ipHoto 9.6

After I upgraded to Yosemite iphoto can't recognize my backup CDs which were created in iLife09. Ihave the original applications install disk and my old hard drive(I upgraded to SSD). How do I get a n iphoto back to read by old CDs?

After I upgraded to Yosemite,iPhoto can't recognize my backup CDs created in iLife 09. The applications install disk won't install iphoto because iphoto 9.5 is already installed..I updated to a SSD and have the original Hard Drive with an updated iphoto which recognized the older CDs(thanks to iphoto expander). I thought that the iphoto that transferred with the new hard drive was the same as what was on the old one. I guess it wasn't. I really need to access my backups. HELP

Later version of iPhoto write to the library on opening, and so cannot open libraries on optical media, as that cannot be written to. Further, optical media is going e way of the floppy disk. Therefore, you need to use a different form of archiving and back up going forward.
To allow iPhoto to open these libraries you need to copy them to your Mac or an attached external disk.
To merge them into an existing Library will require that you use either Aperture (if you have it) or iPhoto Library Manager.

After upgrading to Yosemite, iphoto has a white symbol across it indicating it needs to be upgraded. When at the app store the install option is not available?

What version of iPhoto do you have?
iPhoto Upgrade under Mavericks see post by Old Toad

I just installed Yosemite. iPhoto is gone, and Photos does not open. Instead, I am prompted to update to the latest version. The App Store tells me that is not available in the US. What do I do? Cannot access any photos.

After upgrading to Yosemite iPhoto does not open

After upgrading to Yosemite iPhoto will not work. Does not work even after installing iPhoto Library Upgrader. Any suggestions

Does not work even after installing iPhoto Library Upgrader. Any suggestions
You not only have to download the iPhoto Library Upgrader but you also have to run it on the library. It'll be in the Applications/Utilities folder. Double click on it to launch and it will automatically locate the last library you worked with and convert it.

after upgrading to yosemite iPhoto doesn't work?

Hi, I had the same problem, but in my case it turned out it really was not a system problem, I just did not wait long enough for the download to finish..and did not know where to see its progress.. It took probably closer to two hours.
Please follow the progress of download in the Launchpad. Only after the download is completed, can you install, which does not take as long...and the iPhoto is available with bells and whistles...good luck!

ILife Missing After Yosemite Clean Install

I have just done a clean install of Yosemite on my MacBook Air that was running Mavericks, but all iLife Applications (iPhoto, GarageBand, etc) are missing and the App Store says I have to purchase them. How do I get iLife back?

Hi!
I'm having an almost same problem. I just bought a brand new macbook air and performed the Yosemite clean install, with an USB drive. When I access the AppStore, It tells me that I have to pay for not only iLife apps, but also: Pages, Numbers and Keynote.
This is not correct, right? This apps should be free with my new macbook... and now I can't go back to Mavericks...
Can someone help me?
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Marcia.

How can I return to use OSX (Yosemite) after installing Windows 8.1?

How can I return to use OSX (Yosemite) after installing Windows 8.1?
I cannot find Boot Camp on my iMac (late 2013) with windows installed. So I downloaded it, but I cannot run it because of an error (x64...). I tried to use my USB stick with bootcamp installed but nothing. When I turn my iMac on it starts automatically with windows. I tried to search it, but I found only the setup and it doesn't work. How can I get back to my APPLE iMac? How can I use OSX?
Excuse me for the (maybe) uncorrect language, I speak Italian.

Hello!
You can start your Mac up with the [alt] (sometimes [option]) key pressed and you will get the Startup Manager.

I have a new MacBook Pro with iPhoto installed. I edit photos, mainly photo orientation via rotating, but when I go back to run a slideshow the changes weren't saved and the photo is back to vertical...please help...thanks

I have a new MacBook Pro with Iphoto installed when purchased. When editing a photo, primarily orientation changes, the slideshow initially displays the photos in proper orientation. However, after leaving Iphoto and shutting down the computer, and then going back to run a slideshow the photo displays back to its' original orientation, that is, the edit-change was not saved. Please help...the program information says all edit-changes are automatically save and therefore there is no save command, but my changes are not being saved...thank you for any suggestions...HM

what version of iPhoto and of the OS?

OS X Yosemite iPhoto 9.6 won't open except in full screen

Upgraded to Yosemite, iPhoto 9.6. Mid-2011 iMac. When I open the iPhoto app, I get a top bar and the dot under the icon to indicate that the app is open, but nothing happens. I go to the menu, View, Enter Full Screen. Only then can I see anything in iPhoto. Then I can Exit Full Screen and navigate. But this is a headache and a sill extra couple of steps. Have tried repairing permissions, checked them with the admin module, deleted and reinstalled iPhoto altogether. Still, can't open iPhoto normally. Suggestions?

I had saved my pictures on iphoto, when I updated to OS X Yosemite iphoto has been deleted, I can't find these pictures or iphoto. How do i get these pictures back?

I had saved my pictures on iphoto, when I updated to OS X Yosemite iphoto has been deleted, I can't find these pictures or iphoto.
Do I download it again?

Did you Update I Photo from MacApp Store to.9.6 as shown in screenshot.

HT4906 How do you find out if you have iPhoto installed?

How do you find out if you have iPhoto installed on your MacBook Pro ?

It is about my Mac, but it's so I can sync my iPhone to my Mac. I was directed here from the Apple website.
But I don't have iPhoto in my applications folder, so I guess I don't have it installed on my computer.
I thought it did, as when I was going through my iCloud, everything apart from Photo Stream was selected, and underneath it, it said you had to have Aperture or iPhoto installed on your compputer (I back up everything from my phone to my computer, and iCloud)

I just installed MacOS X Yosemite on my MacBook Air 2011. After installing Yosemite I installed the Photoshop Elements 12.1 upgrade, but now when I open the program and try to use the tools, the program freezes. How do I fix this problem?

If you use a trackpad and don't want to switch to a mouse, you can uninstall and reinstall all day long and will still have problems, but if you really want to try it, you can download PSE 12 here:

Icloud drive fails to work at all on my Macbook Air 11 inch with Yosemite recently installed, 2014-09-20

icloud drive fails to work at all on my Macbook Air 11 inch with Yosemite recently installed, 2014-09-20. It works fine on my iMac, but that's no use to me. Unless it works with my Macbook Air, it's useless. Dropbox manages very well, but Dropbox has recently promoted the War Criminal Condoleeeza Rice to its board, presumably so it can spy on its users better. So, Apple, what's the problem? Any answers to this common problem?

I like it very much. I use it on my iPad (and occasionally my iPhone). I'm kind of a keyboard snob actually. I tried the Apple wireless keyboard first. Apple keyboards have a short throw that hurts the tips of my fingers. They're very pretty but the on button turns on when I don't want it to and my iPad wakes up in my bag. Strike 1.
I went to a little keyboard called the Joy and it had a positive switch so I didn't have the wakeup problem. It worked well though after several months I wore it out and had to replace it with another one. I also didn't like how flat it sat and used rubber bumpers on the back. It too had a short throw that hurt my finger tips after a while but it was better than the Apple.
Then I discovered the Logitech bluetooth keyboard, the K811. This is a great keyboard. It switches between multiple targets with one press, it has a positive on/off switch, the keys light up, it's rechargeable and lasts a long time, and the slight cushioning on the keys keeps my fingers from hurting. I put the rubber bumpers on it though like the Joy because I like the keyboard to sit up a little. It's a tiny bit bigger than the other keyboards but I like it a lot, better than my MBA keyboard and better than my iMac wired keyboard. I'm trying out an after market keyboard on the iMac now but I'm thinking about switching to one of these for the iMac.
