5.1.1 issues with iPhoto

I searched for this issue and found nothing, so sorry if I missed it but I am having a very specific problem since updating yesterday. When I edit a photo, mostly the crop feature, I get a loading circle and then my locked/passcode screen. Has anyone else experienced this? At first I edited about 2-3 photos and then hit this issue, but now it's every single time I hit edit. It's not a full reboot, just a loading screen, then passcode but all apps are still running and it only takes about 5 seconds.
Thanks in advance.

All of a sudden File compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera

Anyone have issues or solutions for solving file compatability issues with IPhoto & digital camera? Worked okay for years but all of a sudden giving me error messages about file format. My camera uses Jpeg.

There is an issue ongoing between 10.6 and Kodak cameras. Workround: use a USB Card Reader.

Any suggestions on how to fix installation issues with iPhoto & iMovie on used Mac mini?

I bought a used, mid 2011, mac min. The selller deauthorized all his applications and resotred it to factory settings for me. When I received it, I added myself as an administrator and deleted the dummy user the seller had created after restoring the OS. The first thing I wanted to do was install applications I already have on my iMac (also running OSX Lion). It would not install iPhoto or iMovie. It said these applications were assigned to a different apple id, the previous owner. I decided to erase the hard drive and reinstall Lion myself. I ran into some snags (due to my internet connection) and had to use recovery thumb drive, but it worked.
I successfully re-installed Lion on the newly formatted hard drive.
I still cannot install iPhoto and iMovie. It just give me an error now. Couriously, it installed Garage Band just fine. I haven't had any other issues with other applications I purchased on my other iMac.
Anyone have any suggestions, besides purchasing iPhoto and iMovie on the mac mini?

Ethernet cord connected to the router solved it. This is exactly what I had to do when I reinstalled the operating system. For some reason my wireless internet is highly inreliable. It drops out constantly. I've always had my iMac hard wired to the router, but I'll have to figure out a fix for this Mac mini. I can't have a 30ft ethernet cord running through the middle of my basement. Thanks.

Major issues with iphoto 09' v 8.1.2

I am having a lot of dificulty with iphoto and one of my issues is that my photos are showing that they are very poor quality (65kb) but my camera is not even capapble of taking such poor quality. (Canon SX20is)
Is there any way to restore the original resolution or is that info. lost forever; and how do i stop it from doing this in the future???
I would really appreciate help.
Thank you,
Brian

In your OP, it was unclear just what was going on, so I looked to see if it was possible to get files that small. If you would have mentioned the library debacle, I wouldn't have bothered.
I think you are going to have to manually rebuild the library.
I would rename the library you have and start iPhoto to create a new one.
Copy the images from originals folder from the old library to another temporary folder somewhere sort the trash by file type and drag all the jpegs to this temporary folder. Sort by name, and discard the smaller of any duplicate filenames.
Then go to iPhoto and select file->import to library.
Once it is done, select the event that is created and use event->autosplit events.

Two issues with iPhoto '09

First of all, I'm running iPhoto 8.1.2, on a system running 10.6.8. The issue described below isn't something that occurred suddenly after an update, as far as I can remember.
There are two issues: first of all, iPhoto won't import my JPEGs that I processed with Lightroom. I did that so many times, and there was never an issue, but for some reason, now I get the message that the file is in an unreadable format. To find out whether the problem resides in iPhoto or in the files, I took a picture that I already had in my library, renamed and tried to import it again, to no avail. Also, I opened the new pictures in Preview, and there was no problem there.
Secondly, I can browse through my events, and see my thumbnails. However, when I then double-click on any picture, iPhoto just shows a black void -- even though it says '1 photo selected in 1 event'. This applies to all photos in the library.
I would really really appreciate feedback on this issue, as iPhoto is my main image displaying/sharing application.

Thanks for the tip. I tried it, but the problem persist in the other account. As I said before, I also tried to reinstall iPhoto, after using AppCleaner to uninstall first. Something else I could do is uninstall all iLife components, and then reinstall the whole suite. Is it enough just to clean up iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD and Garage Band?
Another thing I (re-)tried is to use iPhoto Library Manager to rebuild the library. To no avail, alas, but at least it provides a log with the error message, part of which I reproduce below. At the same time, iPhoto complains about the 'unreadable format' after every Event that ILM tries to rebuild.
Here's the log message:

Wanting to go "back in time" due to issue with iphoto 8.03

Everything was great on Sat. before I downloaded iphoto 8.03. Instead of jumping through hoops to try to fix my issues, can't I simply go back using Time Machine to iphoto 8.02? I've made minor changes otherwise to my mac since Sat. that I can duplicate no prob.
Can I revert back to my machine the way it was Friday or the time of my last back up?
Thanks!

tamara, actually, the following would be even better than trying to restore the application from a Time Machine backup. Reinstall, iPhoto 8.0 from your original iLife `09 DVD, then update the application to the update just prior to the one you began having issues with.
First, open the Applications folder and drag iPhoto to the Trash.
Now insert the iLife `09 DVD and launch the installer.
Accept the license agreement.
When you get to "Installation Type" click the "Customize" button on the left.
If you removed iPhoto as described earlier then there should be a check mark beside iPhoto.
Click "Install".
When the installation is complete go to the Apple Support website and download the iPhoto 8.0.2 Update (I believe it was 8.0.3 that you had trouble with?):
http://support.apple.com/downloads/iPhoto8_0_2Update
Install the update.
Now your iPhoto application is back to the version it was before the 8.0.3 update. However, your photo library was likely converted when you applied the 8.0.3 update. As a result iPhoto 8.0.2 will alert you that the photo library is not compatible with this version of iPhoto.
To fix this, hold down the Option & CMD keys and launch iPhoto.
A window will appear giving you various rebuilding options.
Place a check mark beside "Rebuild the iPhoto Library from automatic backup".
Click "Rebuild".
This will convert the library back to a version compatible with 8.0.2.
Let us know if this resolved your issue. Cheers!

ICloud photostream issues with iPhoto 9

MacbookPro 2013, running 10.9.1 with iPhoto 9.5.1
I have set up a new photostream with iCloud and it's fine on all my devices, but when I try to open the pics through iPhoto it takes me to my 'trash folder'.
I can see the folder and the thumbnails are all fine?
When I then try to play the slideshow, the images appear but are overlaid with the word 'trash'
Very wierd.
Any advice?

#1 is an indication that the library is damaged. Make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

I'm having a weird issue with iPhoto.

My MacBook is running OS 10.6.8 with iPhoto version 9.2.3.
A few months ago the motherboard of my previous laptop, an iBook, died. I put the hard drive in an enclosure and used Firewire to link it to my present MacBook. Somewhere along the way the vast majority of my photos disappeared from iPhoto. I see dotted line squares against a grey background when I open the application. Clicking on those squares produces a black field. Once in a while, an actual photo opens. If I scroll quickly through the grey squares, I see photos, which quickly fade back to the dotted line squares. I can make out many photos that I thought I'd deleted long ago. It's like some kind of data link was broken.
Connecting to my backup hard drive has been no help and I've opened iPhoto while holding down Command/Option to rebuild it.
What the **** is going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

ITunes issues with iPhoto

I've created a slideshow with iPhoto and have added music from iTunes. Further on I have put in start and stop points in some of the tunes, but apparently it takes a long time for the settings to update. Any ideas?

Which Macs are affected by issues with iPhoto?

I have a Macbook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo and a Macpro from 2008 (do not have access to exact specs right now). Are either of these affected by some of the issues I am reading about here:

I am having a lot of issues with iPhoto. I recently upgraded my software to Snow Leopard from the original software on my Macbook Pro. I got the Mac in 2007. Everytime I try to open iPhoto is just shuts down! It also wont recongnize my iPhone. HELP!

My iPhoto will not stay running. It opens for a minute and then quits unexpectedly. I get an error message and it says a report will be sent to apple. My computer will not recognize my iPhone either. I cannot figure out how to fix this issue or if there is any way to fix it!

Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
What's the plist file?
For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
If that fails:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Viewing and Editing Issues with iPhoto 09

While I have enjoyed the new features of iPhoto 09 vs iPhoto 08, there are two differences that may be bugs or may be "new features." The first is that while viewing images within an event, the image zoom slider in the lower right corner of the window will no longer zoom an image to full view within the image browser. I only get a minimum of three images left to right. Any ideas why I can't zoom fully without opening the edit window or clicking on the image to zoom it to full screen (not within the image browser)?
The second question has to do with editing. When I take a portrait image and open the editing window, the image is rotated into landscape mode. This did not happen in iPhoto 08. Is anyone else seeing this? If so, is this a new "feature" or a bug?
All of all of my images are stored as RAW file format.

Thank you both.
For the image viewing, I'll accept that things sometime change. In fact, if you click once on an image so that it is highlighted, you can go in and out of zoom by touching the space bar, and then navigate with the left and right arrows at full screen.
When I encounter an image that has a rotation issue in edit, I'll use Revert to Original to fix the image.
I've been using iLife/iPhoto since they first came out years ago, and the interface generally added things, not remove them...oh, well, in iPhoto 09, the good clearly outweighs the bad. I only wish I now had a camera with built-in GPS, but I've still been having fun entering locations for all of my photos.

Issues with iphoto after hard drive failure - message "library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto"

I have a late model 2008 13" MacBook that was running OS X 10.5.8 when the hard drive failed 2 weeks ago when I was traveling in Canada. I found a Mac repair centre and they replaced my 250GB with a 500GB hard drive and transferred my data. (Yeah!!!) I'm now on OS X 10.6.8 (which is great as I guess I should be able to sync my iphone on IOS 7 with my laptop again.... but I digress...)
I haven't been able to access my photos as I get the message "The photo library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto. Please quit and upgrade this photo library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4" when I try to open it. I can see my photos when I look on Photo Browser in Mail so that's good - they are here... I looked through past messages with this problem and saw that the advise was to download iphoto Library Manager. I want to be certain I don't mess anything up so the questions are:
1. What version of iphoto Library Manager should I download - I had OS X 10.5.8 and my iphoto library was ... (sorry - can't find out what it was, guess it's now 7.1.5)
2. What do I do after I've downloaded IPLM?
Many thanks ahead of time for any assistance

I backed up my iPhoto Library to an external drive even though it looked way to small to hold all my photos. I have tried several times to open iPhoto whilst depressing the option and command keys but get the same message again:
"The photo library was created with an unreleased version of iphoto. Please quit and upgrade this photo library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4" Behind this, the little wheel is turning and it says "Loading Photos" (but it doesn't).
I've got to access these photos for a project deadline that's looming so any help would be really appreciated.

Color Calibration Issues with iPhoto 7.0.2 and H-P Photosmart 7360

I'm having color calibration problems with print output to my H-P Photosmart 7360
since iPhoto 7 and above. Is anyone else encountering this? I'm consistently getting
darker output on the printer compared to what's on the screen. Up until iPhoto 7, the
match was dead on, what you saw on the screen is what you got on the printer.
Any suggestions?

Major Issues With Iphoto 09 *Please See PIc*

I have never had my computer do this since day 1. Ever since Snow Leopard - if I crop or edit a photo - I get the following? Is my graphics card going bad? have no idea what this could be. Any insight on the issue? Thanks

Iphoto 09
Macbook Pro 2.16 C2D 4 GB Ram, 320 Hd

I had something somewhat similar on a first-gen Intel Mac Mini two nights ago. I simply double clicked and opened a photo in iPhoto 09 and the whole screen went funny like that. After different screen elements, refreshed, parts of it would disappear, but it took a total reboot to clear the screen. I haven't seen it since, though.
