IPhoto hangs while trying to quit

I just tried to clean up my iPhoto library by running duplicate annihilator and 2400 pictures out of 14,000 or 8 gigs were identified as duplicates. They have been moved to the trash but iPhoto will not quit.
I have had this issue before whenever I make many changes to iPhoto (merge events etc). It seems that if I am doing a lot of changes it is wise to quit iPhoto every 5 minutes or so so it doesn't hang during the quit.
At this point, iPhoto has been trying to quit for about 15 minutes, but if I try to force quit it tells me that doing so will not save any changes. This would undo all the work of finding all the duplicates.
This is getting ridiculous. I have seen countless threads on the slowness of iPhoto but not many work arounds other than a rebuild etc.
Under my activity monitor iPhoto shows to be using 0.01% of my processor.
What is the deal!?

here is what it says when I force quit it, there is more, but I just can't post it all

Application hangs while trying to create a socket

Hello,
We have a third party application that makes HTTP connections using a old version of HTTPClient. Recently we have run into problems where the application hangs as one thread seems to hang while trying to create a socket (thread dumps show the hang occurs in native code) and other threads end up waiting for this thread as they need to obtain a lock on HTTPClient.HTTPConnection. We found out that HTTPClient was not setting a timeout on the underlying socket (SO_TIMEOUT) and the relevant patch has been implemented in the hope that if the condition arises again the offending thread will be timed out and allow other threads to try and continue.
We will not be able to see if the patch works until Monday and I would like to understand the problem a little better if it fails. My question at what point will the socket timeout starting ticking? As our offending thread is waiting in native code is there a chance that the timeout will not be "active".
Also can anyone provide reasons for an application hanging while trying to create a socket and any suggestions for monitoring or mitigating this problem?
Thanks a lot.
Sun Solaris 5.8
JDK 1.4.1 b02

It looks like our version of the JDK offer a connect method with a timeout value, I think this will do the trick.

Connect Mobile for RIM Blackberry Playbook hangs while trying to connect to server

We have Adobe Connect 8 (Multilanguage - Portuguese) installed on a server. Connect Mobile for RIM Blackberry Playbook hangs while trying to connect to the server. Hayward Drummond has posted a notice about Adobe Connect 8.1.2 that seems to solve this problem, known as BUG 2886745. I sucessfuly downloaded this update but I´m not sure if it is compatible with Adobe Connect 8 Multilanguage - Portuguese. Does anyone know something about it? I also need to first install version 8.1.1 in order to upgrade to 8.1.2, as remarked by Hayward. Does anyone know where can I download version 8.1.1 (Multlanguage - Portuguese)?

Game room doesn't work, as it tries to save nickname and hangs while trying to save nickname info

From my understanding, trying to save apple server specific attributes on Active Directory users in the WGM will not work unless the AD schema has been extended to include these attributes.
What you can do in leopard server is to export the list of AD users in WGM and then import them into open directory in WGM.
From my testing the open directory will automatically authenticate with AD for those imported users. You can save Apple server attributes on those imported users.

IMovie 08 hangs while trying to import iPhoto movies at the start.

Hi guys,
When I open Imovie 08, it asks me to import iphoto movies. Then it stays there for ages and never ends importing those movies. I know I can just skip this process but I want to edit those videos from iPhoto.
I guess is some corrupted file it is trying to import what is causing this incident but I have no idea how to tell which is the "bad" file since iMovie doesn't give any information about it.
Any clues?
Thanks in advence

Hi,
I wouldn't say I have such a lot of movies in Iphoto but deffintely they are quite a few... anyway, I suspect it will never end because the timer gets bigger and bigger; and yes I left it running overnight with no luck.
Is there any way to see in which video is iMovie having the problem? The other workarround means having to backup and delete videos randomly until I find "the bad one".
Cheers.

Iphoto hang while importing photos

Hi, my iphoto in macbook air hang while importing half way.
i cant quit the iphoto now.
pls advise hw can i shut down?

I recovered the pictures in "Today" but they are damaged. You see the pictures in iPhoto but they are very small and there is no information about the picture availabe (shuttertime, diafragma etc).
Those are not your photos, only the thumbnails used for display.
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 early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
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.

Iphoto hang while importing

I have 2700 photos on my iPhone 5S. i tried to import them all at once but iPhoto hang every time at different photo number,
for example photo number 1950 and next time at photo number 700.
when it hangs it seems that it's importing but stops at one photo and doesn't move to the next photo.
i tried to import small portion like 200 photos every time but maybe the fourth or the fifth time it hangs
i have to force quit and delete the library every time, because the portion of photos which causes the iPhoto to hang
can not be import it again!!
i restarted my mac, reset my iPhone (power off+home button), but still exists.
Do anyone knows the solution?

thanks for reply,
i have iphoto 9.6. i use USB Sync,
i've been trying for 3 days and i just can't import all 2700 photos i have.
if i make small portion like 100 to 200 photo every import, the problem will appear before i finish all my photos,
there is no specific number for the problem to occur!
then i need to delete the library because the photos which stopped the iPhoto can not be imported to the library

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!

Plz Any one help...

ITunes 7 hangs while trying to update Library

I installed 1Tunes 7 onto my Jukebox Mac - contains 16,450+ tracks, 90Gb. iiTunes hangs when trying to update the library. I keep all my actual music files on an external LaCie D2 160Gb drive. Even if I move the drive to a different Mac, and attempt to update the Library there, it also hangs.
Has anybody got a suggestion?

Sorry to not be of any direct help, but I'm having the same problem and my situation is almost identical. iTunes 7 in general has been buggy for me and I'm wondering if it has to do with the fact that I have 100GB of music which is located on an external drive (not an uncommon set-up). I've tried the reinstall from the download of 7.02 as well as software update and have tried repairing permissions vs. not. I've also trashed the itunes plist files in my usr library.
And now I'm just reflecting on how practiaclly everytime I update something from apple I have to spend days trying to figure out how to fix it. I would consider myself a pro user as well which makes me wonder what the millions of novice mac users do to keep their systems running... oh yea, I almost forgot, for $350 for 2 years beyond the year you get for free (175/yr) apple's novice apple 'care' customer service staff will attempt to help you fix their faulty, seemingly untested (in a real world working situation) upgrades (or they'll just deny the fact that the problem exists and make any attempt to blame it on the fact that you probably just forgot to plug your machine in). Makes me wonder if the faulty upgrades and applecare have anything directly in common. Is Steve Jobs republican?
Sorry, years of dealing with apple products, just had to vent...

Hello JO,
Is the version of your stand alone OC4J compatibile with JDeveloper you are using?
e.g.: JDev 10.1.3 is certified with OC4J 10.1.3
Did you install the ADF runtime ?
e.g.: from the menu, Tools -> ADF runtime installer -> stand alone OC4J
What is the exact error which is displayed ?

Firefox keeps hanging while trying to load facebook

I have been using firefox on my laptop for over a year now and haven't had a problem until the other day. I have been reading through multipul articles trying to fix my problem but yet nothing has helped. It started the other day when all of a sudden firefox just crashed and closed. When re-launching it it would just freeze. After playing around with it I ended up just uninstaling it and then re-downloading it which seamed to fix the problem then. It worked fine until today. Out of nowhere when I would open firefox it would just freeze. Ive now narrowed it down to just freezing while trying to load my news feed on facebook. I have created a new profile, disabled all un-needed pluggins and addons and tweeked with firefox's settings to try and fix this but nothing has helped. ):
also just as I was trying to recieve the troubleshooting information it froze aswell.

Can someone please help? Haha, I'm sure there's a simple explanation to this.

I have iphoto 5.0.4 My computer crashed while trying to quit iphoto and when I rebooted my albums and organized folders had all disapeared. All my photos are still there but how do I retrieve my folders and albums? I tried rebuilding the database

My computer crashed while quiting iphoto. When I rebooted my albums and folders had disappeared. How do I get them back? I tried rebuilding the database to no avail. I am using iphoto 5...
Thank you community!

Most simple solution: restore from your back up.
Other than that, try 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.
