I have not been able to access pics on iphoto. When I  click on iphoto it begins loading and seems to be stuck.  I can leave it loading for hours and nothing happens.  Need help grandkids pics are on their.

I have not been able to access pics on iphoto.  When I click on iphoto the program starts loading and continues to spin.What can I do to remedy this problem?

Best option: Restore from your back up
Next best: 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.  
Least best: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107947 has details on how to recover the files from your Library and start over.
