Hi Ronni,
Have done the rebuild. At the end of that process the same alert came
up again before I tried to
open iPhoto. Then, I tried to start iPhoto and the "You can't open"
alert comes up preventimg iPhoto
from starting.
Thanks,
Walter

Hi guys,
I can't open iPhoto.
When I try to open iPhoto it responds :
"You can't open your current photo library using this version of
iPhoto"
It suggests that I have made changes to the Ph/library and wants me
to upgrade to a newer version.
I have only ever changed the version when an upgrade was released
and was downloaded from the
Apple site and then - as far as I can remember - the photo library
was also upgraded.
Have trashed iPhoto from the applications and installed iPhoto
again (Version 2.0.1) from another G4 iMac but
that has not changed anything.
Have looked at the download site for newer versions, but can only
see versions for Leopard.
I'm using an iBook G4 + OS 10.4.11
Looking for some useful hints.
Hi Walter,
If you haven't copied any iPhoto Library folders from another
(newer) version, then your photo library likely has some minor
corruption.
1. Rebuild the photo database by starting iPhoto while holding the
shift+option keys.
2. Don't release them until you're prompted to confirm the intent to
rebuild.
3. Click "Yes", then click "Save".
Let us know if that corrects your problem please.
Cheers,
Ronni
