Updating to version 9.2 isn't possible.

You also need to be running 10.7.2

same here. Can't update to 9.2 and I am running 10.7.2.

I think its an update through the App Store...but I am not buying it when it came with my mac.

There are two ways to get iPhoto updates. If you got it at the online App Store it should show up in the Updates section. Launch the App Store from the dock and click on the Updates icon at the top right side of the window. If it does not show there, try the Software Update route. Go to the Apple menu and select the Software Update option. See if iPhoto 9.2 shows up there. You need to have iPhoto 9.1 or higher to see the 9.2 update. Let us know if that fixes your ptoblem.

no... because i think "we" all have the preinstalled ilife.

I tried both update options and it doesnt find an upgrade. I even tried to buy the new version from the app store and it wont let me do that.

please help

You mean Software Update? That doesn't work for me to update iPhoto 9.1.3 to 9.2 under Snow Leopard 10.8.6.

iPhoto 9.2 does require Lion 10.7.2 or later. Have you thought about upgrading? I like it... 🙂

iPhoto isn't allowing me to upgrade from 9.1.5. I even downloaded from the link below, it says to try the App Store, the App Store tells me to try Software Update and it tells me I'm up to date... 😕

System Requirements

• Mac OS X 10.6.8
• OS X Lion 10.7.2 or later

I'm only running OS X 10.6.8 and Software Update notified me to update iPhoto to 9.2.

Same problem here.

Moved iPhoto to Trash and installed it from Mac App Store again, fixed the problem.

(Sorry for any English error).

I'm trying every solution suggestion in this discussion,

also this move to trash install from app store thing.

But the app store give me the nice answer:

"These apps cannot be accepted on this computer"

So, i really think it's a problem with the pre installed iLife,

because i also got a 1 month old iMac with the pre installed one.😐

Oh and sorry for my bad grammar too.

You need to contact App Store support for help with this.

Not sure if you still need an answer, but I had the exact same problem, and here was the solution that worked for me:

Your iPhoto app has to be in your "Applications" folder. It can't be in a subfolder that you created. As soon as I moved iPhoto out of the subfolder and back into the main Applications folder, clicking on Software Update from the Apple menu recognized it right away and updated to version 9.2.

I'm running Lion 10.7.2 and iLife 11 was pre-installed.

Hope this helps.

I had the same problem. Moving the iPhoto app to the Applications folder solved it for me.

Thanks for the tip.
