Apple Releases iPhoto 9.2

[MacRumors]

Alongside today's releases of iOS 5, OS X 10.7.2, and iCloud, Apple has also pushed out iPhoto 9.2, which brings compatibility with iCloud and its Photo Stream feature as well as a number of other improvements and fixes.

iPhoto 9.2 supports compatibility with iCloud and iOS 5. This update also addresses minor stability, performance and compatibility issues, including:

- Left and right swipe gestures can now be used to navigate between photos in Magnify (1-up) view
- Previously imported photos are now displayed in a separate section of the Import window
- Book/calendar themes and card categories can now be selected using a pop-up menu in the carousel view
- Resolves an issue that could cause some pages of books to print incorrectly
- Rebuilding a library now correctly preserves saved slideshows and books

The update is recommended for all users of iPhoto '11.

iPhoto 9.2 weighs in at 357.18 MB and requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or OS X 10.7.2 or later.

Epic day of updates today.

Bring on Aperture

Anyone else getting timeout errors from Software Update? Seems Apple's update servers are hosed.

Aperture 3.2 is coming as in the iCloud help, it mentions that 3.2 is required to turn on Photo Stream. Soon...

My Software Update got about half way through and stopped downloading. Then after a min, it picked back up full speed ahead. 888mb update for just the Mac, plus iTunes and iPhone. Damn, Apple has built a beast of a datacenter to handle all this plus iPod, iPhone and iPad updates. My iPad 2 update alone is 700+ mb.

photo stream with iPhoto?

I have iphoto 8.1, is there no update for photo stream?
I noticed theres no web access for photos on iCloud.com.

 

[severe]

Will it find duplicates?

I guess not. I feared having to buy iPhoto '11. Do people generally like it or not?

 

[NightFox]

Aperture update live too!

Can't update from 9.2 beta 3...

Big question:

will the new version of iPhoto 9.2 still work with existing MobileMe Galleries??

I have a ton of albums synced from iPhoto to my MobileMe Galleries.
if I update to iPhoto 9.2, will that break?

is there a way to NOT enable photo streaming (I have no interest in that), and keep connection to the Galleries? or at least allow both to co-exist until the June 2012 expiry of the Gallery service?

can someone who has updated iPhoto confirm?

as an existing MobileMe member, with contact/address book synching between several Macs, iPhone and iPad, plus iPhoto/Galleries all working fine, I'm more than a bit nervous to update to iOS and all the other related updates...

Aperture 3.2 just hit as well with iCloud stuff plus a few needed fixes.

I'm running Lion 10.7.2 with iPhoto 9.1.5 installed (2011 MacBook Air). I'm not seeing iPhoto 9.2 in Software Update and it won't let me install it from the App Store either...

Me too. It worked first time on my iMac, not sure why it wouldn't show up on my MBA.

Anybody know why on iPhoto 9.2 on snow leopard i can't find photostream?

 

[tarasis]

I've updated to 9.2 (I didn't run the betas) and it has finished downloading all the stream photos, however iPhoto is consuming 100%+ cpu on my MBP and beach balling like crazy.

Very much not a pleasant experience.

Runs perfectly. But as far as I can tell, the only way to delete photos is to do by logging in to iCloud. There is no way I can tell to delete individual photos from any device.

Yup the help docs confirm this. The only way to delete a photo is to reset the whole photo stream. Which is nuts, there really should be an easy way to remove that stray photo that you don't want in the stream (say a screenshot done for filing a bug report or that random slightly inappropriate photo you took)

Cool, smooth scrolling is back and you can swipe through photos. I like iPhoto again.

Yeah not letting you delete a single photo may lead to a divorce or two.

That's what I'd like to know as well. The suport article on apple.com doesn't mention the need to Lion to use photo stream, but I'm on 10.6.8 and I'm not seeing photo stream on iPhoto 9.2 either.

Summary
Using Photo Stream on your Mac requires iPhoto 9.2 or later, or Aperture 3.2 or later.

Photostream is a part of iCloud, which does require Lion.
