My MacBook 2008(OS X Mavericks) is dead, but I do have Time machine back up on an external desk. Can I open the files or applications(such as iPhoto) on any other Mac computer? Thanks for your help!

Yes as long as you made a full backup with Time Machine, the Migration Assistant should be able to import data from an older Mac. Note, Mavericks iPhoto has been replaced by Apple's "Photos" app, which can import the Photo Library from iPhoto as of 10.2.3.

In another Mac, link your Time Machine drive. Click the TM icon in the menubar and hold down the Option key. You'll see the message "Enter Time Machine" is replaced by "Browse Other Backup Disks..." where you can navigate to your drive.
This will allow you to browse your TM files on another Mac.
I meant 10.10.3, not 10.2.3!
Open Time Machine back up on other Mac Computer?
