Has iPhoto only gone from the Dock or vanished from the Applications folder as well?


Did you recently update your MacOS X? If you upgraded to MacOS X 10.3 or later, you need to update to iPhoto 9.6.1.


Apple stopped the development of iPhoto, and updating using the Updates tab does not work right now.

Don't try to update from the Updates tab at the App Store, move the incompatible iPhoto application from the Applications folder to the Trash (don't empty the Trash!), then try to update by reinstalling the iPhoto application from the Purchases tab of the App Store.


See Barney's User Tip for details:

Try, if your purchase is hidden: See this link: Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store - Apple Support

Also, check if you have used the AppleID that you used, when you installed iPhoto. Perhaps a different AppleID will make iPhoto show at the AppStore.

If you cannot get iPhoto to show among your purchases, only Apple Support can help, but it is not guaranteed, that they will help, if you did not buy iPhoto from the appStore.
