New iMac, library cannot open

Hello

I bought a new iMac (end of 2015 21.5 inch, 2.8 GHz Core i5, 1 TB drive, all set to day fusion) and used the migration assistant to transfer my old iMac (21.5 inch mid-2010, 3.2 GHz Core i3, 1 TB HDD, all set to day) on my new iMac. I used my time machine backup.

Everything seems in order, with the exception of my photo library. It does not open and says that he needs to repair my library. It stops at 95% and says it can not open my library.

The library opens always on my old iMac. I don't know that I dared to repair this library (command + option + opening photos), because if that fails, I fear that I will not lose this library. My time machine is now connected to my new iMac. and actually, I sold my old iMac, so the clock is ticking.

I also use iCloud as a backup, so I tried to open the Photo app on iCloud.com, but that also failed to open. I can still access my photos on iCloud with my iPhone and iPad.

My old iMac-info poster: 485,87 Go to 17,669 points

My new iMac-info displays: 467,18 Go to 17,669 points

Does anyone know what I can do?

Thank you

Patrick

A way to create a new library on the new mac, refer to as the library system, log in to iCLoud and turn on iCloud photo library and let it download all since ICPL

This will not prevent the project or smart albums

to keep everything connect both systems together, and then drag the photo library intact from the old system to the new system images folder (you can use an external hard drive to the Mac OS extended (journaled) format to do that too) and the Photos on the new system launch

  • I have a new iMac and I want to make a backup of my iPhone, I lost my dates of the will? because in this computer I have no backup I made before

    Hello

    I bought an air iMac, and now I would like to make a backup of my iPhone on this computer.

    but the question is, if I do not have the backup that I did before, it is possible that I lost my dates?

    because the computer I had entered is not an iMac.

    Thank you

    Francesca

    Hello Francesca Montani,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Congratulations on your new iMac! I understand from your message that you want to create a backfile to your iPhone 5 c, but are afraid of losing the data on it. I know how it is important for you to keep your data on your iPhone 5 c and to create a backup file for it.

    When you plug your iPhone 5 c in your new iMac, iTunes should open. Your iPhone 5 c should also receive a message asking if you trust the computer. Go ahead and trust of the computer.

    iTunes should display a page that says: Welcome to iTunes and you give 2 options. You want to choose the option to play up like new. Don't worry, it will not erase anything from your iPhone. The next page, you should see if the page summary of the iPhone. You should see a picture of an iPhone and a description.

    In the middle of the right side, you should see a section called manually backup and restore. To create a backup file, select Back Up Now. This article has steps and a picture to help you create an iTunes up. I have also highlighted the steps below:

    The backup of your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    iTunes

    1. Open iTunes and connect your device to your computer.
    2. If a message asks you to Trust This Computer or device password, follow the steps on the screen. If you have forgotten your password, get help.
    3. Select your iPad, iPhone or iPod when it appears in iTunes. If your device does not appear in iTunes, know what to do.
    4. If you want to save data of health and activity of your device iOS or Apple Watch, you must encrypt your backup: check the box called Encrypt [device] backup and create a memorable password.
      Write down your password and store it somewhere safe, because there is no way to recover your backups iTunes without this password.
      If you do not need to save your health data and activity, you can make a backup that is not encrypted. Just click Back Up Now.
    5. After the end of the process, you can see if your backup completed successfully in the iTunes preferences > devices. You should see the name of your device with the date and time that iTunes created the backup. If you encrypted your backup, you should also see next to the name of your device.

    Best regards

  • Have just bought a new iMac and imported all my old data.  When I try to open a pages document it says that it cannot be opened because it is too old, and that to open it, I have to save it with Pages ' 09 first.  So, how he back up if I can't open it?

    Start the OS X App Store, then click on the item toolbar updates. V5.6.1 pages should be available, and this will open documents Pages ' 09, ' 08 and ' 06. In messages to this community, you should always share what version specific pages and OS X that you are currently using.

  • Cannot open iphoto library after copy old HARD drive to the new HARD disk

    I had to buy a new MacBook and recover my files, the old MacBook HARD drive is connected to the new via a USB connection and support base.  I have successfully transferred all my files to the new disk.   However, I can't open the iPhoto library that I just moved through without going through the old drive still connected.  I get a message like "cannot open the migrated library.   However, the new iPhoto on the new laptop is accessible OK.

    Yu try to open the iPhoto Photos or iPhoto library?  "Cannot open the migrated library" alert indicates, that you opened the library on Photos for Mac and application Photos changed the name of the library ".migratedphotolibrary" file extension

    If you open the photo library, but want to use with iPhoto, change the extension of your iPhoto in ".photolibrary" library file name

  • Attempting to add the new swatch library, I get "" cannot open, select HAVE 8 or superior or EPS ' "

  • iCloud photo library with new imac

    Hello

    I have about 30,000 photos in my iCloud library. I had to buy a new iMac earlier. I opened the Photo and it comes up with the right number of photos, a few pictures are loaded, others are white squares with the little cloud symbol in there.

    It seems that the program does not download anything. ICloud preferences are configured to download the originals. However, at the bottom of all the photos he says still 30495 photos download... When I open some pictures it start downloading it, then the total number changes, but I'm not anxious to open images, was waiting for them to download.

    It is still an action following the program to start download them all on my new iMac?

    Thank you!

    If you check the download for the Mac originals, photos full size will start downloading. Be aware that 30 000 pictures full size will take awhile to download.

    I don't know that's what you have set, but let a few hours before checking it in.

  • After the migration to the new iMac 10.11.3 - unable to repair permissions on your Photos App library

    I bought a new iMac running El Capitan and migrated from my old iMac running 10.6.8 and opening of the Photos app after migration ended I see the error "failed to repair permissions on your library. Initially, when I open the Photo app, I'm asked to select the library migrated or create a new. I select the library migrated and then see the above error.

    I tried on my new iMac running disk utility, and there is no error reported. "I tried too hold down the command and option keys when opening the Photo app and I go as far as the window pop up prompting me that" you are about to repair of the 'iPhoto Library' library but after selecting the repair, it returns the error "year error occurred while repairing permissions" and citing is the only option given.

    I then tried to go back to my old iMac and did a full rebuild of my photo library using the command and option keys when opening iPhoto App and also ran disk utility. Then I made another backup from time machine fees and moved once more to my new iMac. This has not improved the question, and I see the same mistakes.

    I also tried the iPhoto App 3rd party download manager but it does not allow me to open the application because it returns the error iPhoto Library Manager, must have iPhoto 8.1.2 or later must be installed. Of course when you run 10.11.3. My App Photo conforms to this requirement.

    I am really confused on this issue and would appreciate any help or advice for this problem.

    Kind regards

  • Photo library repair was performed in vain. I get a pop up window that says "library cannot be opened.

    I was trying to create a copy of the photo to a new external hard drive library when I got 'error message 36.  That's what prompted me to repair library.  Now, whenever I launch the photos app the screen says "library of repair". I click on 'repair' and then I get "library cannot be opened.  What is going on?

    What format is the external drive and how is it connected

    The photo library can be on a volume formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled)

    1. the solution for not losing things is to always have good backups - if you have one, you're sure to lose sooner or later things

    2. to move to a new computer, drag the library into the folder on the new computer and launch Photos - it will open and convert the library as needed - if for reason that it not just drag the Photos icon library in the dock
