Notification error on iPhoto

Same here. Badge won't go away. All images have been seen. More Apple Services that just don't work.

2013 nMP OS X Yosemite Version 10.10 and iPhoto 9.6

No - more user errors - the number also indicates that a comment has been made - simply look at the photos and view the comments and it will go away

Getting help actually works better if you stick to facts and details and leave out editorial comments - they add nothing at all to the process and often get in the way of solutions - although in this case the solution is so incredibly simple that even with ridiculous editorial comments it is still easy to answer the question

The color of the alert will differ for new photos and new comments - either red or blue.

I've viewed every picture and every comment. Still won't go away.

This was driving me crazy. When setting up iPhoto, I chose not to set up the iCloud photo sharing. On my iPhone, I had enable iCloud photo sharing and my family member had shared a photo with me and commented on it. It turns out that iPhoto, despite me choosing NOT to enable iCloud config., was giving me the badge regarding that photo. So the only way I could make the badge go away was to change the iPhoto settings to allow iCloud photo sharing, go to the album, view the comment, and then turn off iCloud again. Not too happy with the way that works.

As mentioned already if you look at the photo that a comment is left on it "should" go away. There is also the possibility that the image was just "liked" by someone and no comment left. This will also cause the badge to appear. View the image and the badge will go away.

If you really are just annoyed by the whole badge notification (as I am). Simply turn them off.

Go to Apple (upper left corner) > System Preferences > Notifications > Photos (located in left panel) and uncheck "Badge app icon". There are other options there as well for banners and alerts if you wish to disable them as well.

I hope that helps.

This is the response I needed and think some of the earlier posts might benefit from. (Restart required to clear the dock icon of the red dot.)
