I installed OS X Yosemite and found my iPhoto is gone and tried to restore and it says the version of my iPhoto is not compatible with Yosemite, so I search in App store to get a compatible version of iPhoto but the app store does not have, it says. "The item you've requested is not currently available in the U.S. store." Are you kidding? What am I supposed to do?
MacBook, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

iPhoto was not deleted from your hard drive, only removed from the Dock. If you have iPhoto 9.6.1 you can still use your iPhoto library. If you don't have that version but some earlier version of 9.x try following Terence Devlin's iinstructions in this post to obtain iPhoto 9.6.1 from the App Store:

Re: Is Iphoto gone ? i want it back!

Go to the App Store and check out the Purchases List. If iPhoto is there then it will be v9.6.1
If it is there, then drag your existing iPhoto app (not the library, just the app) to the trash
Install the App from the App Store.
Sometimes iPhoto is not visible on the Purchases List. it may be hidden. See this article for details on how to unhide it.

One question often asked: Will I lose my Photos if I reinstall?
iPhoto the application and the iPhoto Library are two different parts of the iPhoto programme. So, reinstalling the app should not affect the Library. BUT you should always have a back up before doing this kind of work. Always.
Installed OS Yosemite and lost iPhoto
