Issues with Time Machine

Since loading OS X MAverick I have noted that I am unable to view my Iphoto library from within time machine. Previously I used to open iphoto, then time machine and it used to show my iphoto library going back in time. Now all I get is a finder window and when I click on iphoto icon all I get is info about its size. I am unable view any photos from my iphoto library within time machine. Can anyone help?

See this document:

iPhoto '11: Restoring from Time Machine with iPhoto '11 (9.2 or later) and OS X Lion 10.7.2 (or later)

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4927

When using iPhoto ’11 (version 9.2 or later) and Time Machine with OS X Lion 10.7.2 (or later), iPhoto no longer has the Browse Backups option. This means that instead of restoring specific photos within your iPhoto Library, you must restore your entire iPhoto Library.
