IPhoto 7.1.1 hangs when Titles & Keywords are turned on

Like many others, I had the spinning beach ball problem after updating to 7.1.1. Following the popular advice, I repaired permissions, rebuilt thumbnails, and deleted preferences, the last of which seemed to solve the problem. But then, I began changing my settings back to the way I like them and suddenly I was getting the beach ball again. The problem is most noticeable when selecting Library>Photos.
As it turns out, having either or both View>Titles and View>Keywords checked causes iPhoto to hang. View>Ratings has no ill effect. I have tried turning them back on and off just to test this and I get the same results each time.
I'm curious to know if others are experiencing the same thing and are able to solve it the same way.

Todd:
Rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the options to rebuild the database and repair permissions.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

With the latest upgrade to iPhoto, Keywords no longer display under the photo, even when Display Keywords is turned on. Does anyone know why?

Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant update wreaks havoc with add-ons

Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant updating wreaks havoc with add-ons
Why is Firefox violating my computer?

I left "automatic updates" for Firefox UNCHECKED and left download when updates are found UNCHECKED. " Ask me wha I want to do" is CHECKED.
In English, that means don't automatically update and if updates are found ASK.
It does NOT mean ignore all the instructions and download!

IPhoto 6 Hangs When "Recovered Photos" Are Opened

iPhoto 6 "recovered" 300+ photos when I updated from iPhoto 5. I can still see the recovered photos in both my library and albums, but if I double-click on the photos, iPhoto 6 hangs with a spinning ball icon requiring a Force Quit to recover. I can open the photos in the "Recovered Photos" album, but I'm not sure how to get them back into my library and other albums. Has anyone been able to do this?
Thanks, Will
G5, 2 GHz, Dual Processors Mac OS X (10.4.4)

When upgrading to iPhoto 6, the 'recovered photos' it finds are stored as follows:
a if you opt to import the photos when iPhoto asks, they are left where iPhoto found them (or lost them, depending on how you view it...) in the 'year' folder system, within the iPhoto Library folder in the Finder; e.g. 2005>12>15>photo.jpg, 2003>10>05>photo2.jpg etc. Within iPhoto itself the photos are grouped in one new roll, and an album is created in the Source list called "Recovered Photos".
b if you opt not to import the photos, they are moved from the 'year' folder system in the Finder into one folder within the iPhoto Library folder, entitled "Recovered Photos". The 'year' folders can be deleted, if they are still there - you should find that they are empty and they are not used by iPhoto 6.
In Case b you can move the "Recovered Photos" folder to anywhere you like, e.g the Desktop, as the photos are no longer associated with iPhoto. In fact, if you decide you need to import some or all of the photos back into iPhoto, you will have to move the RP folder to another location as iPhoto will disallow any import from within the iPhoto Library folder.
Take care either way; in my case I had 1014 recovered photos, which included all of the following:
a originals of some of my photos, the edited versions were still in iPhoto
b random duplicates of original photos
c photos, both original and edited versions, which I had deleted long ago - sometimes as long as 2-3 years, many versions of iPhoto ago!
When I have chance soon I intend to document my own personal recovery procedure / experience, in case it helps anyone else when upgrading. In the meantime, feel free to ask if you have any questions...

When Location Services are turned off, does Find My iPhone still count as turned on?

Let's say I use iCloud, so I turned on Find My iPhone.
But, I like to save battery, so I turn Location Services off while Find My iPhone is enabled, and I understand completely that if Lost Mode is enabled, then Location Services are turned on and enable Find My iPhone.
Scenario:
I go traveling. I lose my phone. It gets stolen. Location Services were turned off (I like to save battery). If the thief were to try to restore the phone, would he/she get a message saying "Find My iPhone is enabled. Please turn it off before restoring this iPhone."? OR, since Location Services are off, would the restore go on ahead without any confirmation?
This scenario is assuming I don't activate Lost Mode before the thief can plug the device into his/her computer and attempt a restore.
So when Location Services with Find My iPhone enabled are turned OFF, would Find My iPhone still be considered ON and therefore, give a confirmation message before any restoration?
I just want to verify that I'm still secure even when I turn off Location Services to save battery.
Thanks for reading!

MacBook White lagging and hanging when certain applications are being run

My 9-month-old MacBook White (Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz) lags whenever I use SketchUp, and hangs sometimes when I use FlightGear or X-Plane (flight simulators). No other applications were running when these were being used. Is it a CPU problem, or a RAM shortage? Any answers and/or clarification would be much appreciated.

Can you go to Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor and check that all the processes you are running are Intel (you will find this info under the "Kind" column in the Activity Monitor window).
Also see (in the same window, under the "%CPU" column) if there appears to be any processes which are using an inordinate amount of CPU.

Dreamweaver CC "hangs" when external scripts are embedded

Hi there,
I´ve got a problem with Dw CC:
When embedding an external JS (like typekit or jquery) with
<script type="text/javascript" src="//use.typekit.net/xxxxxx.js"></script>
Dw needs a lot of time to open the file and hangs for seconds (application window greys out) when editing a script.
If I embed the same script with a leading http:// (src="http://use.typekit.net/xxxxxx.js">) everything is fine.
Same with jQuery embedded via CDNs.
I have a clean install of Adobe CC.
Problem occurs on:
Windows 7 Pro, 64bit, all updates installed
Windows 8, 64bit
Thanks for help or suggestions.

Hello,
Is there any fix planned for this issue?
Facebook like, twitter share, google + all use "//" in their button embed scripts.
I'm not sure if the guys at Adobe even know it's an issue.
Just add the http. All the // does is make the browser use http or https depending on what the current page has. If the current page is http, the browser adds http to that script link. If the page is https, the browser will add that instead.
The only reason I can find to use // is to make the coding on pages a tiny bit easier if you have some secure pages among all of your normal pages. The // makes it so you wouldn't need to change the code of each page individually to get the right file, avoiding the goofy "this page has both secure and insecure, blah blah blah" error messages.

Satellite A200-24B (PSAE6) - display hangs when the pictures are zoomed

Dear Sirs, I can't believe that ther is no solution for the product you produce. Like my Toshiba that I bought 14 months ago and trying to fix it. I have a problem with my Display Card "ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600" when I view pictures with Windows Photo Gallery and trying to zoom it ... the display screen will hang and go with black and red blocks!
I tried to install all kinds of windows (XP - Vista from basic to ultimate). I tried to download all versions of catalyst from version 6 to 9.7. so what is going on!!!!
Do you know that most of my friends and people hated the brand Toshiba because of this bad reputation in the market ... keep in mind that Toshiba laptops with Nvidia graphic card doesn't have the same problem. please please please help me!
Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.
Sincerely,

Dear Lars_3,
First of all I want to thank you for your support. But I've tried all what you said, to the point that I downloaded CCC version 9.8 and still have the same problem, even the latest bios version!!!.
FYI I advised my friend to buy the same laptop "Toshiba A200-24B" because it had the best specifications that days. He is facing the same problem too!!!!! I believe this edition of laptop was very bad. Any way in this case I have to go and fight with the service center in my country that is responsible to repair it. Because I have three years warranty. So I am going to abuse it ;-)
If you can do any further help please tell me. I don't know how to attach a file if possible to show you my system information that may help in finding my problem!
So I am copied and pasted this information as follows:

Flash works, but causes IE8 to hang when multiple tabs are open

I have a problem which is very consistent... If I open IE8 to my home page (non flash), then open another tab (and go no where, just a clean tab) and then try to close IE completely (saying yes to close all tabs prompt). IE hangs for about 30 seconds before shutting down. If I disable the add-on for flash and then repeat the steps, IE closes right away without incident. Any thoughts? Happens every time...
As a side note, this is a XenDesktop Windows 7 image fully patched and running the most current version of the Flash plug-in.
Thanks in advance!
Eric

Albums missing from playlist when shuffle-modes are turned on

I created a playlist and all 312 files that should be in that playlist display in iTunes and when I navigate into the playlist in my ipod. However, when I start playing that playlist and my ipod is set to "shuffle by songs" or "shuffle by artist", my ipod will start playing file "1 of 77". All 77 of these files are on two albums. When shuffle is turned off, it will play all 312 songs. Why does my ipod ignore all the other albums that should be part of the playlist when shuffle is turned on? The only criteria to be on the playlist is that the genre must match one of the rules. I do not see a difference in tagging between the 2 albums that play reguarless of shuffling and all the others. Just to be sure, I even tried adding tag data to the "sorting" fields.

Check under Get Info on the tracks that don't play. They are probably set to Skip When Shuffling.
(The Skip option is found under the Options tab in Get Info.)

I tunes hanging when docking iphone (10.3.1.55)

Hi Folks,
I have been having an issue with itunes locking up when I dock my iphone (3G). If the phone is docked when itunes starts, if I dock it after itunes has started, or, if I restart itunes a second time it will lock and become unresponsive until I remove the iphone from the dock.
Recently, with the latest issue of itunes the iphone has sometimes been failing to show up in the itunes devices list and it can take some amount of time of rebooting the PC, Iphone or both to get it to show up.
When I run process monitor I can see two threads belonging to itunes have locked. They eventually time out after about 2-3 minutes and itunes will resume, however the iphone will not show up in the devices list.
Have re-installed Itunes and mobile device manager, which didn't do much. OS is windows 7 SP1, itunes is 10.3.1.55
Any thoughts on what might be going on?

edit: Update
Have upgraded itunes to 10.4 but still get the same issue. After a bit of testing I found that it hangs when two devices are connected (the iphone is usually the second one I dock) - so I am guessing that the two locked threads that I am seeing are those. So now I am wondering if it is itunes or the Mobile Device USB Driver (of which there are two) that is causing the hang.

When I try to export photos from iPhoto, why does it truncate the title I have given the photo? For example, I have labeled it 2013RoxyCarousel. When saved to desktop, it reads 2013. The rest is omitted.

IPhoto 9.6 (910.29) hangs when dragging a photo from events into a slideshow. I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

iPhoto 9.6 (910.29) hangs when dragging a photo from events into a slideshow. I am running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 on a Mac from 2011. I am trying to edit a slideshow that was already created. I can delete a photo but I cannot add drag any more photos into it. Please help, time is of the essence! I need to finish for my daughter's first birthday!
Thanks,

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.
Regards
TD

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.
