How to make iPhoto faster?

I need your help. I just got a brand new iMac but iPhoto is really slow! I read in some other threads that many have had this problem, but I can't find a solution. Someone said removing all "places" and "faces" helps, but I don't want to do this. I reallky think I should be able to use these things without iPhoto getting so slow, especially on a brand new Mac.
What can I do?

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.

How to make iPhotos library available to other users

how to make iPhotos library available to other users

To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.
iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

Thanks.You haven't told us your database version.
You haven't shown us the details of your table structure or an example of the data, or even how many rows is a "huge volume of data".
Without proper information we would just be guessing and that doesn't help anybody.

How to make Mavericks faster on an "older" MacBook Pro?

I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro, 2.2 GHz core i7 with 4 GB of RAM. I recently wiped my computer and restored to factory settings because it was getting slow, then I upgraded to Mavericks and it is even slower. It freezes often and takes a long time to load things. Is there any way to make it faster or improve it's function?

Oh wow, I must be REALLY out of it, haha, don't know how I missed that.

How to make iPhoto the default photo program

I belong to a photo sharing site where I upload photos. When I click "browse" at the site, iPhoto automatically opens and I can select and upload my photo. A friend with a new Mac does the same thing - clicks "browse," but iPhoto doesn't open. I think she needs to somehow make iPhoto her default, but I can't figure out how to do that.

Do you mean to upload to the site?
There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto: You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
(Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps. If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
For users of 10.6 and later: You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
Other options include:
Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
Show File: a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected. 3.b.
b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

How to make qry fast

I have a small query
select * from x order by b asc
its very slow how can i make it fast as i have to order .

"Small" is a vague, relative term. It's the volume of data that matters more I would think, and I'm guessing your table is "large" for the hardware you are running on. In any case, if you are truly doing the select to "push it in some target table" then I would say first off, you don't need the "order by" in this query. Secondly, if you are really trying to load data to a table, perhaps it is the insert that you don't show here that is the problem?
Check out /*+ APPEND */ and /*+ PARALLEL */ hints just for grins.

How to make this faster?? read millions of record from txt file

Hi there,
I got an issue. There is a txt file contains 2 million records, I also got another file contains over 10000 numbers. Now, I need to compare this 10000 numbers with that 2 million records if any records contains a number which belongs to 10000 number set, i retrieve this record and keep it. later on, when i finish the comparison i'll write all the result records into a txt file.
What kind of data structure shall i use to keep the records and numbers? how to make the comparison quicker? Any idea will do!
Thanks!

if i were to do it, i will insert bout the records into the db. then do an sql statement on the two tables to get the results. Then get the rs and output it to another text file.
just my opinion. not sure if this is faster.

How to make a faster connection to a database?

Hi there,
I have a created sth like an ebook reader for html books. I have a highlight tool and a textfield to keep some notes for each page. When the user goes from one page to there other I do connect and disconnect to the database 4 times. One to save the highlights of the page, one to save the notes and another to load these in characteristics to my new page.
Acutally I do sth like this:
      //Save the highlights and the notes of the current page
      no.saveNotes();
      hi.saveHighToDB();
       // Load and display specified page.
       ViewClass.getEditorPane().setPage(pageUrl);
       //Load the highlights and the notes of the new page
       hi.loadingMakeHighlight();
       no.LoadNotes();This make my program very slow. It takes along time to load the new page. The whole program, database and book run locally so it should be faster 'cause afterwards I want to put in the book and the database on a server.
Is there a way to make less connections or sth to make it faster??
Is it better/faster to make 1 connection to save the 2 things and 1 to load them? The saveNotes() and LoadNotes() are in the same class and the saveHighToDB() and loadingMakeHighlight() are in a different one. How I can solve this?
Thanks in advance

You need a connection pool so you can recycle connections. This will speed things up tremendously!

Painfully slow startup - any suggestions how to make it faster?

Hi Everyone,
Just thought I'd ask people - my 17" iMac G5 1.9GHz PowerPC with 512MB ram is painfully slow at start-up. Seems to take forever! Does anyone know how I could clear a lot of rubbish from my computer and someone make it faster.
Would anyone recommend a complete re-install - would that improve speed?
Any help appreciated, cheers,
Mark

Mark, you can clear space on your drive and speed it up by moving a lot of sound and video files to a DVD, or even better, to an external; Firewire drive that you can partition and also use as a clone boot disk.
Go through your applications folder and look for stuff that you never use, then get AppZapper to remove all traces of them. You can also use Monolingual to remove the tons of extra languages installed with Word and OS X, just make sure you uncheck English and any other language you might use.
Hope some of this helps,
Miriam

Slow Equuim A200 - How to make it faster?

Help!
My Equium A200 has gone really slow. Keep getting not responding messages on internet.
Even typing this is very slow. Im not very knowledgeable about computers but do keep security updated.
Please help me if there is anything I can do.

There are a lot options to make Windows faster.
I can give you some examples:
1. Check the msconfig: start => run => msconfig.
At startup you can see all programs who started with the notebook. Remove the tick from the programs, they should not startup with Windows.
2. Defragment your HDD: click on my computer => right click on the HDD => properties => tools => Defragment now.
Defragmentation is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems.
Which OS (operating system) do you use? If you use Windows Vista, install SP1. If you use Windows XP, install SP2 or SP3.
In my opinion Windows OneCare is not really good. Choose an other security suite. I use for a lot of years Kaspersky. I had never problems with it and the system runs fast.
To check how much RAM do you have, make a right click on my computer => properties and there you can see it.
If everything doesn’t help, you should reinstall Windows with the Recovery image from Toshiba. All drivers and tools are including.
But if you do this, backup your data first. The HDD will completely erased.

How to make iPhoto compatible with OS X Yosemite

How can I make iPhoto compatible with OS X Yosemite? I can't seem to find an update.

If you have an older version of iPhoto, you'll need to download the latest version from the App Store - you won't see updates in the Updates tab. You can search for and download it - it's free.
