I was using iPhoto it asked me if I wanted to merge the albums I checked "do not ask again" I realize now I want this feature so I don't merge with the wrong album.
If you could kindly help me find a way to reverse this problem I would be very great full

I don't know if it is there, but you can delete the iPhoto preferences.

How would i do that?
Im fairly good on computers for im new to mac.
I know how to get to preferences but how would i delete the preferences?
Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
(On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
(Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
I understand Plist cuz ive done some with them before but if you could be a bit more clear it would help! đ
and after I go to the users and click on my name there is no library.
thank you for your help so far!

I run 10.9 and I have deleted the iPhoto preference folder but it doesn't work. Iphoto keeps the preferences as previously set, deleting the file doesn't reset the preferences.
Is there any other solution?
Many thanks for any advise.
