Can someone help?

There seems to be a bug with iPhoto 8.1.2 and Mavericks 10.9.2 on some machines. Report your problem to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html. However, since iPhoto is up to 9.5.1 now I doubt if there will be any effort put in by Apple for that version of iPhoto.
You can upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1 via the App Store but it will be a paid upgrade.

Upgraded to iphoto 11 to change layouts for a book I am making. Help!

Upgraded to iphoto 11 to change layouts for a book I am making.
Layout change went great but now I have text in the lower right hand corner of my cover that I cannot remove.
It is the old title of the book but smaller and where the page number would be. Show/Hide page number has no effect although changing the font for page numbers does affect the text.
I really do not want to start over. I have tried changing layouts to no avail. I wish I could make a new cover and just import it to replace the one I have. Any ideas? Is there a command line fix that could solve this?
Thanks for any suggestions!

check a preview of the book and see if it is there - Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

My iPhoto hangs when I try to import video

My iPhoto hangs when I try to import video - I have a mac mini and am on OS X ver. 10.9.2, it started doing this when I upgraded to iPhoto ver 9.5.1
Mac mini (Mid 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.2), iPhoto 9.5.1

What's the source of the video? Any error messages?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.

Iphoto hangs when attempting to print photo

iphoto hangs when attempting to print photo even after rebuilding library

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?

IPhoto hangs when attempting to import certain CR2 files

Hi everyone.
After 3 months of owning and using my MacBook, I have finally found that iPhoto isn't a bad software at all, and I want to start using it. So of course the first thing I did was to import some recent photos I made.
By now I have successfully imported JPG and CR2 files from my external FAT32 HDD. But there are some CR2 files that make iPhoto hang: Actually not the whole application hangs, but only the import section (it is still possible to browse albums etc). clicking the "Stop" button won't change a thing, despite the text "stopping..." underneath the progress bar.
A friend of mine tried to import one of the regarding CR2 files, and it worked on his PowerBook G4 - same software versions.
Help. I don't know what to do. Been searching for a solution for days. Thanks in advance for every hint.
MacBook 13" Mac OS X (10.4.8) iPhoto 6.0.5 (316); Camera: Canon EOS 350D / Digital Rebel XT

Ah - sorry, it's hard to gauge what level of expertise people have and probably safer to underestimate than overestimate.
So any messages in Console when iPhoto hangs? Sometimes those are human-readable and offer clues.
What about opening the file using QuickTime? Does that work?
It's possible you ran into an actual bug, but it's hard to tell without the files. If you manage to isolate the exact files that cause the hang, you could try other things, like import them to a newly created library (option-launch iPhoto just in case you didn't know)
You could also dig through the EXIF data that Preview shows (Cmd-I) and see if those files have anything in common, like a bogus value for aperture or focal length or something. I know a friend complained about photos taken by the manual Lensbaby lenses, but I don't know if that has been addressed in recent updates.

IPhoto hangs when trying to select a book template. I am using 9.1.5 on Lion w/ a new iMac.

In trying to choose a template for a book iPhoto hangs. Is there a maximum number of pictures that can be selected? Or do you just have to use the book that comes up first?

I think there is a confusion here about when iPhoto is quiting. We are not talking about iPhoto quiting for not particular reason here, but only when you preview (or saved as PDF) a project (Card, Calendar or Book).
For Ross and I, this is the only time iPhoto is quitting on us. Otherwise it works pretty well.
I did received a call from Ted, an Apple tech today and we have tried many things to solve the problem by removing some files from the Library/LaunchAgents and Library/LaunchDeamons and this is with no luck. This is what the engineers have said to try. The other choice is to reinstall Lion, but from scratch, meaning to download Lion, install it on an external HD or USB Thumb Drive and re-install everything.
I will try to do this next week and make sure to test out the iPhoto Preview Project before and after each installation of new softwares and updates to find out what is causing the problem.
This is sad that we couldn't find what was causing the problem, because really re-installing everthing was not the thing I had in mind. At the same time I have too much legacy, I did keep the same migration from OS X Tiger and never have started from scratch since then, that's 4 OS ago!

Macbook Pro Hangs when Changing locations

Hello Everyone,
I have a Macbook Pro 2.16 running Leopard 10.5.1 and every now and then when I change network Locations from Wireless access point to anther (WPA Personal to WPA Enterprise or vice versa), the laptop simply hangs?! Mouse stops moving and nothing responds. I need to hold down the power button to restart the button. It's go em really worried as I have am using FileVault and crashing the box like this will like lead to corruption in the FileVault volume. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions? It's never happened to me in Tiger!
Remy

I have wondered if VMWare fusion is involved simply because it sets up a lot of network devices.
VMWare isn't necessary for this to happen, since I've had it happen a few times to me, too, but I don't have any of the Windows stuff: Boot Camp, Parallels, or VMWare installed.
I think you're right that it's only when I switch from wireless to ethernet. I've had a couple of theories along the way, but each time it happens, things seem to be a bit different, so now I'm not sure.
One interesting thing is that at least once I did manage to get control of the machine (sort of) by logging in via SSH. Because I was in a hurry to get to work, I just shut it down using the Terminal. So I don't know if I could have gotten complete control by killing the login window, for example.
One thing I've noticed is that it seems to happen shortly after I've rebooted anyway. Yesterday morning I installed a security update and the new iTunes and QuickTime, which meant a reboot. And last night I got this hang when I was getting the computer ready to go to work today. But before I updated yesterday morning, the uptime was over 30 days. So it's not common for me.
I think, in another post, Gnarlodius mentioned only changing the location via the System Preferences and not having this problem. I may try that for a while.

IPhoto "hangs" when Loading Library

I'm having an issue with iPhoto, where, when I launch it, the app appears to open, but in the middle, where the photos are normally displayed, it hangs up saying "loading library", with the spinning gray cog wheel.
No photos ever load, yet the program never crashes. It just stays in this state.
I have opened iPhoto on a test users account, although none of my photos were present, but the app opened right up, leaving me thinking it's related to my normal user account.
I have tried trashing the iphoto plist preference from my user preferences folder, but that did nothing. Same thing happens...
iPhoto is version 5.0.4, and I'm running OS 10.4.11
Any ideas? Thanks in advance...

Jim,
Another test - create a new library in your regular user account and see if it works. Hold the Option key as you launch iPhoto, select "Create Library". Give it a different name so you don't overwrite your current library. Does a new, empty library open? Import some test photos and see if it works. If so...
It sounds like the database in your library is damaged beyond repair. Do you have an up-to-date backup? If not, you can try rebuilding the library with iPhoto Library Manager. It sometimes is successful when iPhoto's rebuild fails. Also, it creates a new library for the rebuild, so if it doesn't work you can just trash the new library with no harm done.
If iPLM can't rebuild the library, then you may have to start over with a new library. You can follow the steps under "Manual Rebuild" in the Apple article referenced above. Before you do, I recommend you read lori_diloreto's post in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1853164. She describes an alternate (better) way to repopulate your library, and she details what you should expect if you follow her instructions.
Regards.

IPhoto hangs when selecting trash

Hi there,
iPhoto is hanging when I click the trash button in the menu. Right or left click. Must force-quit to get out. Otherwise works fine.

This did seem to help. I think the actual problem was this: when I upgraded my iPhoto library, it inserted thousands of small thumbnail duplicates into the trash. The trash folder was so big it took a while to read it. Now that I have been able to empty it, iPhoto works fine. Thanks!

Hanging when changing channels

I am currently on release 1.9 build 10.95. Ever since the software was "upgraded" I have noticed the following:
Intermittently, when changing channels, by selecting from the guide, often the system will hang, for up to a minute, before the channel finally changes, almost as if it is waiting for something to time out.
Intermittently, when I use the remote, the green light will flash on the box showing that a signal has been received, but nothing happens. I may have to issue the command two or three times.
This has happened on all three of our DVR's - Motorola QIP - 7216 1
I have reset the box via software, physically reset the box by pulling the power chord, and put new batteries into the remote, numerous times, and the problem persists.
Is it only me, or has this problem been reported under a different heading?

Usually, you can turn off a video setting and it speeds up the responce time of the set top box. Try hitting menu - settings - video settings - sd override and selecting off. There are other settings in there but they dont seem to affect the responce time much.

Sound is hanging when changing patch.

Hello.
The problem is that if i am pressing the sustain pedal while im changing a patch, the last notes in the previous patch stays on. it doesent goes of untill i hit the space bar or panic button.
Help.
Could it be that i need to configurw some All notes off when changing patch? Not an idel solution but that would be better than to end upp with a hang in a live situation.

Im not expessing my self corectly.
The way i want it to work is as you describe it. The note from the selected patch sustaind untill the pedal is released. Thats the way my master keyboard (Roland A80) works.
But the problem is that it newer STOPS sustaining ( after patch change, and pedal release).
Im using a New MBP, New Motu midinterface and a Clavia Stage88 keyboard.
If MS comes with the sustain feature (and thats what i want), i will check my pedal (polarity?) delet the old pedal and make a new. mayby something whent wrong whan i created the pedal.
Does that sound like a good plan?

My iPod Video hangs when changing track

Just now, my iPod Video hung when changing to another track... So I had to reset it (something I don't want to do). Does anyone have the same problem?
By the way, I didn't charge my iPod till it says it's full. How much would it affect the battery capacity? (It only last for about 5 to 6 hours...)

mine does this too
and occasionally it hangs (pauses) when changing screens
also when i click for the album art in full screen it often takes about 5secs+ for it to register
