When I try to open iPhoto it says; The application iPhoto quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected -I have relaunched it and had reported it, but nothing has changed and it will not open. (Has every picture we have on there). Then when I try iMovie it says; the same thing as iPhoto and we have done the same thing, but nothing. Lastly, when I try to open iTunes it says; “The file ‘iTunes Library.itl’ cannot be read because it was created by a newer version iTunes.” And I can’t do anything to fix it. Please, help!
These are software problems and generally, as a matter of policy, we do not answer software issues this is a hardware repair forum… there are other forums for software. I happen to know some things about Apple Software so I will give you some things to try. Have a complete current backup of all your data before starting. First off you need a new version of iTunes. By upgrading iTunes it should be able to launch and repair/update/import your old iTunes library. You should first throw out your iPhoto .plist file from User/Library/Preferences… depending on the version of OS X you are using Library may be easy or hard to find (on newer iterations of the software User/Library is hidden by default. While you’re there toss out iMovie .plist too. You can rebuild/repair the iPhoto library. Before performing a rebuild, you should install any iPhoto updates by using Software Update. To rebuild the iPhoto library: Quit iPhoto if it is open.Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard.Open iPhoto.Keep the keys held down until you see a dialog box.A dialog will appear with rebuild options. Select the options you want to use (Check them all).Click Rebuild to begin the rebuild process. This may take a while depending on how large your image database is. If deleting the iMovie .plist file does not fix iMovie try removing the movies from iMovie there may be a corrupt file somewhere Also: Go to Apple Discussions under each application for more help. If you do not have an Apple ID and need one to post you can make one-they are free. One other pointer if you do not have sufficient free (empty) space on your HD that could cause the crashing You need to keep ~20% of your total HD size left empty for VMEM and swap (temporary) files. (e.g. if you have a 256GB Drive you need 50GB empty). If this answer is acceptable please remember to return and mark it.
