Im confused, is it a Mac or PC?

iPhoto, most likely a Mac. Restore System Preferences from the included DVD that came with system.

Hold option and click the iPhoto icon in yr dock. Then select the folder when yr library is. It might've become unlinked

See if it's still in the finder

Hd/ applications/ iPhoto.

Click that see if it works.

If it does it's just not linked
Right click/ keep in dock.

Run iPhoto from the actual folder that NYC Joe mentioned. If still no go, reinstall iPhoto from the included DVDs. I think it's the first of the two DVDs, and opt to ?Install Bundled Applications Only'.

a mac is not a pc it's a MAC.

:sigh: Still arguing semantics when the platform has been already established. For the purists, a Mac is a Mac. MAC is Media Access Control address; MAC Address.

Zuska, you can reinstall iPhoto with these instructions. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2604

You have Mac*OS*X 10.6.8. The application requires Mac*OS*X 10.7 or later. thats what it tells me...do i have to upgrade my OS X???

 

[Widdy]

These are discs that came with your Mac?

 

[Brando457]

a mac is not a pc it's a MAC.

technically a mac is a pc, considering pc stands for personal computer.

Now you may be running Mac os or windows OS, but you still run the operating system on a personal computer.

Just like a tablet is a tablet, but then you have an iPad running ios and an android tablet.

:dog2:

10.7 is Lion, and you will need to upgrade to use said software.

I will have to upgrade this program for my iphoto to work? is this my only option?

 

[NYC Joe]

Quite possibly.
But I don't understand how it worked before and now doesn't.
Did u buy a new iPhoto?

Maybe try updating your computer.
Download all the updates and try again.

No!

10.7 is Lion, and you will need to upgrade to use said software.

Correction iPhoto '11 is for lion, iPhoto has been around much longer than that. But if he has or had a previous version he just needs to find the previous version he had (check the factory discs) and he can re-install said version.

 

[Zuska]

i installed everything over again and **** aint working. got me pissed.

 

[LatinP]

I checked again and even with iPhoto '11 you still don't even need Lion lol.

iLife '11
