MacBook Air :: We Have Lost IPhoto And Cannot Find The Application
Apr 18, 2012
We have lost our iPhoto application. The icon is still on the desktop, however, it no longer shows up in applications and we can't launch it. How can we restore iPhoto? (Also, we are in China traveling which makes it a bit more complex)
Info:
iPhoto '11, Mac OS X (10.7.3), Still have desktop icon
I cannot open my iphoto because i am constantly receiving the message "the application quit unexpectedly" I have tried everything!!!!first & foremost I have archived & installed osx already 2 times.I have tried holding down the options key and building a new library..doesnt work.I have typed in fsck -fy and rebooted and rebuilt disk permissions.i cant seem to find the file .com.apple.iphoto etc its not in my preference folders to erase it
She synced her phone to iPhoto.When prompted, she selected "Delete originals on device".AT THIS TIME...the iPhoto software crashed and quit.When iPhoto was relaunched, the photos are NOT visible in iPhoto.ON THE PHONE...All photos are erased. Info: MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)
I installed a new HDD. I reinstalled OS X by first installing my original Tiger and then the Leopard upgrade. Don't ask why I did not just go straight to Leopard because I don't know I then used the Migration Assistant to bring in the TM backup. I went to open iPhoto and I am getting: wtf? I think that I am going to reinstall OSX. I have the original HDD; is there a way to transfer everything from that directly? Maybe I will try doing an "Erase and ReInstall" option right from the Leopard disc and then choose the TM option.
I just recently bought a used MacBook air from someone, its a late 2009 MacBook. It was originally version 10.5.6 but I wanted a clean MacBook (as if i just bought a completely new macbook) so i erased and installed with a CD that apple sent me. But after I installed it it lost all the apps like iphoto, imovie garage band. How I can get those apps (besides buying them)?
I just updated iPhoto and received the attached message when I try to open iPhoto. "You can’t open the application “iPhoto” because it is not supported on this type of Mac". How to resolve this.
I went to click on my iPhoto application and it wouldn't load, it had a gray question mark on it. I clicked it again and it got dragged onto finder, and when I released my mouse it made a poof sound. I remember doing this in the beginning when I got my laptop if you wanted to get rid of an application from the dock. I went to the Mac HD and went to applications and where iPhoto used to be, is now blank. I searched in Spotlight, and went to Applications<utilities.
Is there somewhere where I can re-download it from the Apple site? Or do I have to totally reformat my computer to bring it back to me.
I bought a Macbook off line recently but I cant find my photo book app. I looked everywhere, spotlight, applications, etc., and still cant find it. I have tiger os but no disk. What should I do? Is there something I can purchase? Don't I need photo booth in order to operate my built in camera?
Ever since reinstalling Lion I haven't been able to restore iPhoto - when I tried to restore it from a previous backup, an error occurs during restoring. I guess I will need to download the entire application but where to find it? I can only find updates on the apple store.
Last Monday I purchased a Macbook Air from Best Buy. They guy there told me it came preloaded with ilife which included iPhoto. I cannot find that application on my computer. Weird thing is when I go to upload a picture onto Facebook one of the locations it gives me is iPhoto but I cannot locate it in the finder.
I have an application on my desktop that is attached to a webserver updating account that I need to modify the settings for. Problem is, I've forgotten the password and their 'forgot password' thing isn't responding after a few hours. If I could just reveal the password that's saved on the desktop application then I wouldn't have to mess with it. I looked all though Keychain, but it doesn't seem to be anywhere in there. Back in PC days there were tons of applications that could just reveal what was behind the little dots. After about 20 minutes of searching, it seems that the mac world offers no such convenience. Anyone know some other way around this? I mean, it must be stored somewhere on here. The application is remembering the password.
I had Yahoo Widgets on my desktop. It was a little separate dock from the main dock and when I clicked on the visible part a tray would slide out with all the little widgets. Unfortunately I clicked "close" and the little dock disappeared. The application was still there in Applications but when I clicked on it, the little dock did not appear.
So I downloaded Yahoo Widgets again - it was called "Gallery" but even though an application called "Yahoo Widgets" appears in the Applications list, when I click on it, nothing happens. Unfortunately, Yahoo is ending support for this Widget Engine and I think the download has been deleted from their site. So I am thinking of restoring the widget from a backup that I made of the Mac HD but even though I have the hard disk attached to my computer.
I don't know how to find and restore the files for this application to make the little separate Yahoo Widget dashboard or dock appear on my desktop again. I have checked start "Yahoo Widgets" in System preferences under user and starting items. I really don't know what to do after this step but would really like to have this Yahoo widget dock again on my desktop because it was very useful.

I just noticed that the icon for my Applications folder has been replaced with an icon for a different folder. (I was adding new icons to some folders the other day and apparently wasn't watching what I was doing closely enough.) how can I restore the Application folder icon back to its original state?
I had upgraded my software to Leopard and after a year or so the HD crashed the week before Christmas.
I got a new HD installed and I loaded the Leopard software I had purchased. Today I noticed there is no iPhoto. It came basic when I bought the Mac in Dec 2008, I'm certain.
Do I have to buy the iLife to get iPhoto now? Wasn't it free at one time and came installed?
I have searched around but cant find an answer that works to this problem. I recently lost all events from iphoto 08 7.1.5 (not sure why but it coincided with HDD getting full. I have tried various things to rebuild the library, reimport etc but I cant get all the events back. I do have time machine but I imported a load of photos since last backup and cant lose them. All the original photos appear to be there but just cant for the life of me get the events to appear back
I reinstalled my applications from a disk, and have lost iphoto completely. Where I can find it and my library - they still seem to be taking up hard disk space, so I am assuming its a matter of locating them. But they're not in the Applications folder. (I do have back up but not the last two months...which I'd like to get back).
iphoto for some reason does not have any of my photo's, it is blank like I just initiated using the application. I have hundreds of photos that I cannot now find. How can I recover the files?
Iphoto froze so I forced it to quit several times. Then i did a safe boot and restated machine. It would then open but all photos are gone. How do I restore them?
