My iphoto app just keeps going round and round. It won't load.

iphoto on my mac won't load. Keeps going round and round....

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

    My Mac crashed today for the first time in the seven years I have owned it. I was working in Photoshop. It had been getting slower and slower in Photoshop. Now I can't start the computer at all. Using the Installer CD, I can't get through to use the Disk Utility to try to fix it. The computer gets bogged down in disk utility "gathering disk information."

    You may have had a hard drive failure. Have you been hearing any unusual sounds? Have you been getting messages about a full hard drive?
    Will it boot in Safe Mode? See What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode? (Mac OS X)

  • That little wheel just keeps going round

    Recently my MacBook (syst. 10.6.8) has started freezing. Often it's when I'm using Firefox (version 30). I'm not sure though if the problem is Firefox or maybe the Finder, but that little rainbow wheel just keeps going round and I eventually have to reboot. I have run "Repair Permissions" from the start-up/install disk, but it still does it. I also trashed the finder prefs.
    I am worried that I've "caught" something from the internet?
    Help please anyone. Thanks.

    You could check the Activity Monitor (see Go in Finder, choose Utilities folder,
    and double-click Activity Monitor) to see what may be hanging up and wasting
    system resources. You may need to boot the computer from the Installer DVD
    and from the menu options there (do not install anything) you can access a
    few things; one of them is Disk Utility; you can check and also Repair the HDD.
    There are some ideas, & things to check that may be helpful in resolving issues
    in this site: Tech Guides - The Safe Mac http://www.thesafemac.com/tech-guides/
    There may be something else going on in the computer, so if you have a good
    backup of your content or a clone of the entire bootable system on a second
    externally enclosed hard disk drive, (it can be 'cloned' back to the computer HD)
    then you could do an erase and install, then restore from the clone-copy.
    An overly full or problematic hard disk drive may also cause such symptoms.
    Damaged files or bad sectors can be a sign of an old hard drive pending failure.
    Backup..!
    PS: images do not appear to be working, or if they do appear, don't show to others.

  • I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my do

    I just updated my pages and now it won't load. This is on my iPad. The first version which has the latest version it can have 5.1 or something like that. I am trying to open a document and am worried that if I uninstall and reinstall I will lose all my documents

    I just uninstalled it and am waiting for it to reinstall. I sincerely hope that I have not lost everything that I worked on so hard. Now that mobile me is gone, I have not been able to go between devices to transfer things. I was merely trying to take a document I had worked on and open it in pages, but it said my version was too old. When I updated, it wouldn't load. Now I cannot do anything. I hope that the reinstall fixes it without losing everything. Please advise!!! Yes, I am in panic mode.

  • Mac Book Air is charged but the circle just keeps going around and I can't even get to sign in?

    Mac Book Air is charged, the apple appears but the broken circle just keeps going and does not even take me to the sign in; any hints?

    If you don't see any option, maybe your hard disk is damaged.
    Close the OS X installer pressing the red button at the top left corner of the window, and open Disk Utility. Then, after opening Disk Utility, look at the left sidebar. What do you see at the top of the sidebar? Do you see the hard disk? If not, take the Mac to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired.
    If you see the hard disk, select it and try to repair it. If it shows an error at the end, you will have to take the Mac to an Apple Store

  • Installing extensions and little circles just keeps going round and round, Help?

    When I try to install new extensions, the little circle just keeps on going and the extension doesn't install.
    When I go to extensions through the window>Extensions, it says there are three but only two work, onOne Software, which is installed on my machine, is empty.
    When advised to download the Adobe Support Adviser, I follow the link to the page, only to be told that Adobe doesn't support this anymore.
    Why can't I install any of the extension that I want and where are the onOne Software extensions?

    Please provide more details. Windows or Mac? Which version of Extension Manager (CS6, CC, 6.0.8, 7.2.1, ...)? Could you provide the download link of the extension if possible?

  • Tools/Add-ons, then the page will not 'load' symbel just keeps going round

    the Add-ons page will not load, it just goes round a long long time and will not open,
    WinXP, Avira AV, Firefox 6

    By default the "Get Add-ons" tab is selected if you open the about:addons page (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons)<br />
    That page tries to load content from the Mozilla server and that can take some time especially if the Mozilla servers are busy.<br />
    You can click on the Extensions tab to see the installed extensions or one of the other tabs to see other installed add-ons.

  • I downloaded and tried 3 times but it won't install.  The circle just keeps going around and around.

    And Adobe has yet to provide a number for tech support or a chat capability.  I just keep being redirected to tutorials that do not address this problem.

    Joellewee you can contact our support team at http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6.
    If you can provide additional details regarding the behavior you are experiencing and any specific error messages it would be appreciated.  Are you able to begin the download process within the Creative Cloud Desktop application?

  • HT4009 I bought a quiz tunes app and it just keeps flashing on an off it won't load how do I get a refund or what can I do please help

    I bought a quiz tunes app it won't load how do I get a refund or what can I do

    Have you tried deleting and reinstalling the app (via the Purchased tab in the App Store app, if that tab is working), and if that doesn't fix it then have you tried contacting the developer (there should be a link to the developer's site on the app's description page in the store) ? If re-downloading and contacting the developer doesn't get you anywhere then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

  • Just upgraded to Mavericks and now Safari won't load pages

    Hi, I just upgraded to OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 yesterday.  Prior to downloading the new operating system Safari was working perfectly. 
    After I finished downloading Mavericks I tried to open Safari but I have kept seeing a message, either the page was not responding or "Safari cannot connect to the server." 
    My computer says that my Wifi is working, but still I cannot access any webpages.  I can only access them through my ethernet connection. 

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

    That's a Micrisoft product, not an Apple one, so you'll probably do better to post in the MS user-to-user forums here:
    Office for Mac forums
    Be sure to tell them which version of Office:Mac you have.
