![]() I tested opening Photos from the backed up Photos library and that seems to be complete as far as I can tell. start deletions as you suggested from Photos once again. Then copy just the backed up Photos library back to the internal Or might I now delete the two libraries on the internal. So I guess I have two options - go through iPhoto to delete the events on the internal HD? (but I still am unable to get that to update in App Store - and now all versions, including my back up copies on external drive have been deleted) I went through Photos deleting pics as you suggested but that does nothing to my internal HD space, as the pics in the iPhoto library are still the ones being referenced (space hogs), yes? I've now backed up both libraries - they both copied at close to 300 GB each - even though the Photos one is referencing the iPhoto library, correct? But perhaps the act of copying actually "solidified"(?) the Photos library to be self referencing? Please state what you did to get it.Īgain, thanks for your responses - very helpful to say the least! Someone please tell me they have been able to update to 9.6.1 since the OS X 10.10.3 update. And that my friend, is what caused this whole fiasco. You have to log in to see your app updates, you don't have to log in to see your system updates. The App Store reports updates for apps separately from the system updates. I mean really, the machine shipped with iPhoto 9.6. Assuming that everyone's machine was updated already. Is Apple going to put the iPhoto 9.6.1 update back on the App Store for all of us who got stuck between the migration? Serious oversight on their part. So what am I supposed to do in the meantime? I have no iPhoto. I'm assuming that if I replace my version with hers, it won't be linked to my Apple ID since I never downloaded it. My daughter has iPhoto 9.6.1 on her machine but she downloaded that under her own Apple ID. The update also includes a couple of bug fixes. ![]() Currently the update button for iPhoto does absolutely nothing. Apple released iPhoto 9.6.1 Thursday, an update that preps the way for migrating to Apple's upcoming Photos app. iPhoto 9.6.1 for Mac can be downloaded from. Perhaps you need to re-read what I wrote. I'm assuming that even if I delete the app from my machine, I won't be able to get to iPhoto 9.6.1 via the App Store. If you have a Time Machine backup from before you upgraded, you may want to restore your Mac to the previous version, where iPhoto 9.4.3 has still been running. The applications installer is commonly called iphoto9.4.2update.dmg. Apple REMOVED the update from the App Store, so I couldn't update the application even if I wanted to prior to installing the OS X 10.3.3 update. The OS X 10.10.3 update killed iPhoto 9.6 because it needs an update to run. I know I could copy the app, but what support files also need to be copied.This Mac came with iPhoto 9.6 preinstalled (new iMac). I do have Mavericks installed on a bootable external with an iPhoto that works (not exactly sure which version, but probably either 9.4.3 or 9.6.1). When I run any of the updaters (9.2.3, 9.3, etc), it gives me the error message “iPhoto 9.1 or later is required to install this update.” which is a bogus message, but probably something that Apple has ceased to care about.Īs far as I know, there was never an iPhoto 9.6.1 updater put out by Apple - by that time it was updated via the App Store.Īny ideas on how I an get a runable version of iPhoto on this Mavericks Mac? (Yosemite is not the answer for other reasons I won’t go into). However, I’m left with a non-launchable iPhoto, although it’s a slightly newer version 9.2.1. I also have the iLife ’11 DVD, so I uninstalled her copy of iPhoto (the app and the receipt files located both in /Library/Receipts and in /var/db/receipts) and installed from iLife ’11. However, when I run the 9.2.1, 9.3.1 or 9.4 or 9.4.3 updater, they all report that “the version of iPhoto installed on this Mac must be updated through the App Store” - which now is not possible. So, I figured no problem, I kept all the iPhoto updaters from that era. ![]() When I look at her App Store > Purchases, it shows iPhoto as “installed” and button is greyed out. iPhoto 9.6.1 is categorized as a Video Software application that the current version is, and can be installed and operated in people usually can install it. ![]() The combination of OS 10.9.5 and iPhoto 9.1.5 shows iPhoto as a non-launchable program. (In hindsight, I should have updated iPhoto when she was still on 10.7.5, but here we are.) So, we updated to Mavericks before realizing that she had an “old” version of iPhoto, version 9.1.5, which I figured we could update later. Friend running MacOS 10.7.5 wanted to update the OS but stick with iPhoto.
