upgrade from iPhoto 9 to 11 failed, need help

Contrary to my untimely discovery of the  advisory to

not Force Quit if & when the process stalled, I did. Now I'm

advised to upgrade 9, (now gone) to 9.1 before proceeding.

Should I reinstall 9 from the DVD? Will it even install alongside

11 or should I delete 11? Fortunately I have a recent backup of

the iPhoto Library on a separate disk. Please advise the steps

I should be taking. Thanks in advance, Tom.

iMovie '11, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

I think you are confusing (esaily understood) the marketing names with the versions


iPhoto 6 is version 6.x.x

iPhoto '08 is version 7.x.x

iPhoto '09 is version 8.x.x

iPhoto '11 is version 9.x.x


do you currectly have a working iPhoto? What version is it?

The only course of action I can see is to reinstall the previous

version of iPhoto, upgrade it to 9.1 as  suggests (as the

preparatory step before going to iPhoto '11) then trying again.


I wish I'd come across their advisory before upgrading and

forcing iPhoto to quit when the lobrary conversion stalled.


Do you have further thoughts Terence?
