i want the old version of iPhoto back

I have been a MacBook Air user. I use to love this and has purchased another one in 2012 (version 2012) - OS X 10.9.4 (13E28). Can someone show my how to undo the latest update? Now I can no longer put captions and add frame style on my photos! IS APPLE GOING BACKWARDS? THEY GIVE YOU ALL THE GOOD THINGS IN THE BEGINNING!!

Why can't I keep the old version of iPhoto? I am so disappointed with Maverick in view of (iMovie - can't burn) and the iPhoto - it has taken away the fun in producing photos and movies. I AM NOW LOSING MY TRUST AND LOOKING AT MOVING TO SAMSUNG OR OTHER OUT THERE.

Restore the backup of your system from before you installed.

Things move forward and often new software requires upgrades of old software - for example Mavericks OS X 10.9.x requires iPhoto '11 version 9.5.1 or newer

so basically to go back you need to restore your backup from before you upgraded but it is more than just iPhoto - it is everything

Just wait. When Yosemite comes out and includes the new Photos application we may get out keywords back. At least I'm hoping so.

In the meantime you'll have to regress back to iPhoto 8.1.2 (09) and Mt. Lion.

Or with iPhoto 9.5.1 an easy way to see which keywords are assigned to a photo is select that photo's thumbnail and type Command + K to bring up the Keyword pane for iPhoto. All keywords shown in blue are those assigned to that photo:
