Replaced hard drive - problems with time machine

My hard drive failed and I have had a new one fitted by Stomfront but now need to replace all the data. They recomended putting Mavricks on the new drive and that was put on the new hard disk but the time machine back up has Yosemite. Seems to cause all sorts of problems.

I cannot seem to get iPhoto or the photos that were in iPhoto back. The same with iMovies.

The Mac is a 27 inch late 2009 with 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 12 GB Ram running OS x 10.9.5
