When you say drag the iPhoto library to the IPhoto icon are you talking about the library I will find in the Pictures folder?
Yes, drag the "iPhoto Library" folder's icon to the iPhoto application's icon on the Dock and drop it when the icon turns dark (meaning that it recognizes that you're dropping something on it). This should only be necessary once, as iPhoto opens the last iPhoto library it saw by default. You can create multiple libraries, and choose the one you want to open by holding down the Option key while you click on the application's icon on the Dock. But that's iPhoto 201, and you're interested in iPhoto 101, 'cause you probably only have the one library.
