What version of iPhoto do you have. With Mavericks one must use iPhoto 9.5.1 which is only available from the App Store.


This screenshot describes which previous versions of iPhoto work and don't work withMavericks and which quality for a free upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1:

The other versions will require you to purchase the new iPhoto version.

Hello Old Toad


Have same issue as poster. From your chart I see that iPhoto 9.4.3 qualifies for the free upgrade to 9.5.1.


When I try I get two error msgs: first says update not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or item was refunded or cancelled. (Neither being the case for me) If I press OK then another error message comes up: There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later.


My original iPhoto was purchased many, many years agos (before the "App Store") and I have kept using it and updating it through many Macs. Never any difficulty until installing Mavericks a few days ago. . . . .which I am forced to do if I want to keep editing with FCP X.


Any suggestions?
