Q: Problems with iPhoto after Maverick installation

After 'free' :-) installation of Mavericks, iPhoto doesn't work...

When I take a look in the App Store I recognized

that It isn't possible to update my Version of iPhoto..?

I bought iPhoto two years ago and I'll not buy it again - the same programm.

I need help!

A:

Nope, just comiserating; the original post may have the same issue as I do—unrecognized multiple apple IDs.

I've talked to apple about this and their advice is to 're-purchase'.

    Recently upgraded to Mavericks (10.9) and iPhoto 9.5 (as prompted) - first time opening iPhoto post upgrade, it said it needed to upgrade library and I assumed did so (although it did seem quick!) - then imported photos from two separate cards and merged events - closed iPhoto, wouldn't re-open with "you can't open the application iphoto because it is not supported on this type of mac" (at that time icon was "normal" but since restart is now greyed out with stop sign) - have tried everything Old Toad has suggested - had online chat with Apple, but needs iPhoto specialist in UK and they've closed (I work too!) - so, could try your remedfy but ...

     

    By "trash" I assume you mean hold down my mouse button in Launchpad 'til the icons quiver, then click the cross on iPhoto?

     

    What if I don't have CDs (only recently bought my first iMac!)

    By trash, I mean drag the iPhoto application icon from the Applications folder into the trash icon on the dock; the way you describe could work too. Though I don't use launchpad.

    But your case sounds different than mine, and I'm no expert... That's a weird error message you got though, and if you got iPhoto from the app store (that is if you have no discs, or it came installed?), that'd be a place to start, maybe by trashing the app and re-installing... FYI my photo library upgrade was quick too; a minute or so if I remember correctly.

    Wow, everyone's having so much trouble ,

     

    I just fixed it by opening the Maverics' 'App Store.app', go to update, clicked intall all (or you could just install the iPhoto update if you wish) and all issues were fixed for me!  Simples!

    Note that the last post in this thread prior to yours was nearly two months ago - predating the latest updates to iPhoto and Mavericks   Yes keeping up to date is a smart idea - but prior to the update being released no one could use it

    I had the same problem.  After much searching I went and clicked on the apple and 'about this mac' and then a men popped up with all the updates I needed after installing Maverich, then I opened iphoto and it went through a lot of conversions also.  All seems OK now.
