IPhoto 8.1.2 (424) + OS 10.6.4 = crash upon trying to edit photo

Question

I recently updated to 10.6.4. As soon as the update to the OS was finished each time I go into iPhoto and try and edit ANY photo, the app crashes and gives me a crash report.
I've tried trashing the prefs and I have also rebuilt my library - both did nothing to fix the issue.
Any other suggestions? I use this feature every day so this is killing me.
thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Did you repair disk permissions after applying the updater? Also did you use the Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo)? If not I suggest to download it (click on link) and apply it.
Other tests you can run:
1 - create a new text library, import some photos and see if you can edit there. If not then go to 2.
2 - log into another user account on your Mac, open iPhoto and see if you can edit there.
If you can't edit in the other user account a reinstall of iPhoto is warranted. To do so you'll have to first delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder, reinstall iPhoto from the disk it came on and reapply the latest updaters.
