iPhoto was discontinued by Apple many years ago. It is no longer available. The refund would have been given to the previous owner, not you.


The current installation should have the Photos app instead.


Also, if the Mac was not correctly wiped, and still has info like the old iPhoto app uninstall history, you may want to wipe it yourself as who knows what other things from the previous owner may still exist.
