IPhoto 9.4.2 failing to load pix...menus greyed out

Hello all.
I have a seven-year-old Mac Pro (2 x 2.66GHz Dual Core Intel) running OS X 10.7.5 and I've tried everything to fix this problem.
It arose when iPhoto (9.4.2) crashed as I was dragging and dropping a jpeg file into it from my desktop.
Now when I launch iPhoto it loads partially but won't load pictures and most of its menus are greyed out as below.
To fix it I have tried the following...
1. Uninstalled and reinstalled iPhoto after downloading a new one from the App Store
2. Dump the iPhoto plist files in /private/var/db/receipts folder.. are there any more I don't know about?
3. Reinstalled the OS via recovery disk
4. Installed a NEW OS 10.7.5 on one of my drives, used that a start-up, ran iPhoto from its original location... and it WORKS.
I am reluctant to move everything to the newly-installed OS but will if necessary.. but I'm fascinated to know if is there a simpler solution to this mystery?
All help gratefully appreciated!

Restore your backup from before the crash - or less likely Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your iPhoto library
And drag and drop has issues right now so I would recommend exporting rather dragging and dropping

    这个错误是因为RT系统启动部署时缺失库文件或者加载库文件失败导致的。
    库文件加载失败原因有很多,而且就算把库文件重新添加进去可能也不能解决问题。建议你重装sbRIO 9636的RT系统,RT重装系统很快,10分钟就能完成。
    在MAX里面远程系统下找到你的9636,右键选择格式化。格式化完成后展开9636,右键软件选择更改删除软件,此时把软件再重新装进去就可以了。

  • After editing a RAW photo in PE13 (my External Editor) sent from Apple's iPhoto, I can not reimport the edited photo bank into my iPhoto library. The "Import to Library" command is greyed out. This was not the case before the latest PE13 RAW update versio

  • Images on certain websites only half loading or half greyed out, happening in FF and IE. Have cleared history etc. but no luck getting pictures to show properly

    Hi need some help!
    When trying to look at pictures on housing websites I either get just the top of the picture load or half the picture and the rest greyed out. It only seems to be on a few as everything on Facebook and BBC news seems to load ok.
    Have tried clearing history etc. but still with no luck! Have also tried to use IE but still having the same problem as Firefox
    Please help, driving me mad!

    Please Update to the latest Firefox 18.0.x version.

    Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

  • After Lion upgrade all iPhoto menus greyed out

    I have a problem with iPhoto after a Lion upgrade. I haven't run it since I did the upgrade but with iCloud etc I wanted to ... but when I run it I just get the menu bar with no app screen, all the menus are greyed out. The version is 9.2
    The iPhoto prefs pane works but the accounts tab hangs and requires a force quit.
    I tried sending the app to the trash and re-installing it but I can't figure out how to re-install the apps from my original macBook Pro OS/X disk (which is SL) because it only gives me the option to re-install the OS (and it won't replace Lion with SL anyway) (nor do I want it to) or to do the optional installs like the dev stuff.
    Has anyone else seen this a know of a fix??
    Thanks, RJ

    It helped to do this command:
    +sudo rm -rf /var/db/RemoteManagement+

  • The iPhoto library I am trying to import from is greyed out

    This library opens and works fine in iPhoto 9.5.1.  I created a new library and want to import photos to it from my old library but can't.  I just bought a new iMac with OSX 10.9.1.  The existing old library was created on a Mac Pro, probably under Snow Leopard or Lion.

    One should never try to import one library into another. Older versions of iPhoto were able to do so but would result in an messed up library that had the thumbnail, preview and original files of the imported library ending up as original files in the importing library. Beginning with iPhoto 7 that capability was removed.
    To get photos from LIbrary A into LIbrary B there are two ways to do that:
    1 - use the paid version of  iPhoto Library Manager to copy the Events or albums from A into B. That will copy the photos, any edited versions, keywords, faces, places as well as the original photo.
    2 - export the photos you want from A via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu with Kind = Original to a folder(s) on the Desktop.  Then import the folder(s) into B.  That will give you only the orignal file and no edited version of any metaedata added in A.
    Happy New Year

  • We are on our network and webpages will load but stay greyed out and not usable??

    We have tried to access from different networks with the same result. Just received this ipad2 2 weeks ago.

    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Moving iPhoto to external drive; have formatted external disk to Mac OS Extended (Journaled), moved the iPhoto library to external drive; when trying to change the library, the iPhoto file on new external is greyed out   can't be selected.What went wrong?

    Must have done something wrong..
    1.  formatted external disk to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) - required a partition, but that went fine.  Entire new external disk was included in the partition formatted to Mac OS Extneded (journaled).
    2.  moved iPhoto library to new external disk
    3.  Holding Option key down, opened iPhoto
    4.  Choose library feature appeared, however when new library function option appeared and "choose library" selected, the iPhoto folder appearing in the new external drive was greyed out and not able to be selected.  Therefore the default library remains the original iphoto library on the Mac. 
    I've moved the original iphoto library to the trash and then tried to start iPhoto.  A message comes up that the iPhoto is in the trash and needs to be pulled out before iPhoto can start (clearly the new iphoto library on the external drive is not being seen.
    Can anyone suggest where I went awry?  Thanks!

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7 or later: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.
    Then try select it again.

  • I am having trouble opening iphoto as it keeps showing the loading sign. I am using os x 10.6.8 and my iphoto version is 9.2.3. Please help

    i am having trouble opening iphoto as it keeps showing the loading sign. I am using os x 10.6.8 and my iphoto version is 9.2.3. Please help

    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.

  • FireFox images not loading in local folders (firebug error-Failed to load given URL)

    I am having difficulty when developing websites in local folders (Windows7 computer). The webpages I make are showing images in IE9 & Chrome but not FireFox (nor Safari nor Opera).
    In FireFox I get Firebug "Failed to load given URL" prompt.
    I am using html5 & external linked css stylesheet & the html/html5 & css code validates.
    I have tried using rel path ie images/image.gif & absolute path references ie C:/RPD_Programming/RPD WEB/amwcsnew/index.html
    and have tried using % to eliminate whitespace in references but I cannot get FireFox to display images!!
    This has been a problem for me for around 2 weeks now & is very frustrating. Some website code/templates I have downloaded from the internet display the websites properly (ie load images fine) when I open them locally in FireFox. Why does my code not allow the images to load in FireFox (paths/permissions/other issue??). How can I fix this?
    Here is example css & html5 not displaying images from local directory in FireFox (fine in IE9 & Chrome):
    style.css
    /* CSS Document */
    /*Basic Reset*/
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    html{

    You need to use file:// as the protocol instead of C:/. The latter may never work (C:\ might).
    Where is the main HTML located ?
    Easiest if to store the images in a sub folder of the location because you can't go back via ../ beyond that root location for security reasons.

  • **SOLUTION** DLLML.exe Fails to load at startup (application error)

    Hello everyone!
    I purchased the SB X-Fi Fatalty Champion Edition soon after release, and think this is the best card I have ever used to date. Absolutely love it, unbelievable sound.
    Now a year or two ago I noticed a certain file failing to load when I started windows.
    This file, DLLML.exe. To my understanding this file is used to load EAX emulation support into older games/modules (essential loads a "middle-man" file between the game's sound files/.dll's, and the hardware SPU [Sound Processing Unit, not a real acronym, but that's what I call it since GPU and CPU are similar distincti've acronyms so if you see it used anywhere, it came from me ] to allow EAX support in non-EAX enabled games), and/or to add EAX effects in your audio files using the Wave Studio app.
    I've pinpointed this issue to either a Windows Update, or the Creative auto-update (which could mean it is an error caused by an installaion combination of multiple apps at once) because this issue did not arise until I did these two things (did Windows Update, then Creative Auto-Update, then restarted computer).
    Now I've primarily had this issue with Windows XP x64 but I have had this issue at times with Windows XP x86 as well.
    After you install the software suite, it adds an entry in your Windows Startup to load the module (Start/Run. msconfig. Startup tab. Look for STARTUP ITEM: DLLML). The entry looks like this:
    WinXPx86 looks like: "C:\Program Files\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem * -Startup
    WinXPx64 looks like: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem * -Startup
    Under most circumstances this module loads fine, but because Creative, for reasons why I have not delved into, loads some of their DLL files differently than the Windows standard, which may also be a cause of this issue (extremely unlikely, I believe it is one of the 2 things i mentioned above).
    Either way, after I did those 2 things, the DLLML.exe startup entry failed to load every time.
    But I fixed it.
    Now what you have to do to resolve this issue, involves editing the startup entry in the Windows Registry.
    If you are scared to go into it, have no idea what I am talking about, or never edited the Registry before, don't worry. If you follow these steps EXACTLY, you have nothing to fear.
    I will be using default installation parameters for file pathing, so if your Operating System is installed in a different dri've letter other than C:\, then just change the letter to the one your OS is installed onto.
    Capitals used for emphesis on actions to take:
    -Hit the START button, then select RUN
    --------If RUN is not in your start menu, you need to enable it by right-clicking and open area of your TASKBAR, select PROPERTIES. --------Click the START MENU tab, then the CUSTOMIZE button. Click the ADVANCED tab. In the START MENU ITEMS box, scroll down to the entry that says SHOW RUN. Check the checkbox to fill it. Then OK/APPLY/OK, and you should be back to the desktop. Then go to START/RUN
    -type the word REGEDIT
    --------This opens the Windows Registry.
    --------DO NOT change ANYTHING in this other than the exact directions I specify or you may corrupt your registry or even worse, corrupt your system, which means F&R time (Format & Reinstall). Treat it like a stripper. You can look all you want but don't touch or there could be dire consequences.
    --------Now the fastest way to find this is to manually navigate to the specific "key" or "entry" you need to modify. Mouse-click the +'s to navitage further into the "hi've" following these maps:
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x86 USERS NAVIGATE TO: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Run
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x64 USERS NAVITAGE TO: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432\Microsoft\Wind ows\CurrentVersion\Run
    --------Now you are looking for a specific entry NAME called RCSYSTEM. Depending on which version you are running. They are:
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x86 USERS: "C:\Program Files\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem * -Startup
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x64 USERS: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem * -Startup
    -------Now we are going to edit the entry. What we need to do is get rid of that * (asterix) character in the name. I don't know why it is there, I'm thinking it may be a coding error. But in my WinXPx64, this was the culprit.
    -Double-click the RCSYSTEM key to edit it, and edit it so it looks EXACTLY LIKE THIS (If you're paranoid about doing something bad, COPY and PASTE this line pertaining to your installed OS. KEEP IN MIND THE INSTALLATION DRIVE LETTER, CHANGE FIRST LETTER IF NESCESSARY)
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x86 USERS: "C:\Program Files\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem -Startup
    -FOR WINDOWS XP x64 USERS: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Creative\Shared Files\Module Loader\DLLML.exe" RCSystem -Startup
    -click OK button. Now it is changed.
    -------And we're DONE EDITING the Registry entry!
    -now go to FILE in the top-left menu, then select EXIT
    -RESTART your computer
    -------You should not receive the "DLLML.exe failed to load" (application error) again!!
    To check to see if it loaded into your system properly (as if not getting the error message anymore was proof enough it loaded properly), when you reboot back to the desktop, do the "three-fingered salute" (ctrl-alt-delete), then select the PROCESSES tab. Click on the IMAGE NAME heading to sort it alphabetically, and look for the name (WinXPx86) DLLML.exe or (WinXPx64) DLLML.exe *32.
    If you see it listed, it loaded!! CONGRATS, IT BE FIXED!!
    If this did not work for you, then your system is posessed, get a priest. I don't think a witchdoctor would give your comp good vibes O_o
    Hope this resolved it for you. Enjoy your EAX with Duke Nukem 3d again!
    EDIT: As a side note, I also noticed that since after this fix, my computer doesn't hang after sending the restart/shutdown killsignal, so I am wondering with people having similar hanging issues, if their issue could be resolved something similar to this.
    Just a thought for any admins/mods/users out there that know what they are doing that maybe wanna test that out.

    G Kudos for a brilliant finding! After a Windows Hotfix on my XP SP3, when shutting down my PC I would wait for a program and then get an error that EAX was not responding before finally shutting down. On next reboot I lost sound on my PC. After running tests, the Direct Sound test failed pointing at EAX.
    This solution cured the problem. Again, kudos, job really well done!!!

    Below is the end of the log.txt file after the ExManLog.YES file was created.
    The log file isn't always created on some machines where the .YES file is setup. 
    The software is installed on Windows Vista. Some machines have a Core I3 chip.
    I have been reading the forum and tried changing the permissions where I can and tried the flash issue. Firefox is not installed.

    What's the meaning of "remoting onto the machine"? Is it by "Remote Desktop Control"( mstsc )? There is no difference in running Extension Manager locally or by RDC. However, you have to make sure that you login with the same account. If you still can not launch Extension Manager on your laptop, you can generate log files and paste them here.
    BTW, we created "Frequently Asked Questions" sub forum for Extension Manager. You might find some useful information in it. Check out http://forums.adobe.com/community/creativesuites/extensionmanager/faq

  • URGENT HELP NEEDED 'Acrobat failed to load its Core DLL'

    My Adobe Reader was working fine until I needed to open a PDF the other day to which I received this message 'Acrobat failed to load its Core DLL'. I had a problem with it in the past with an error code ending in '142' but I managed to solve this myself. Now this has appeared and I'm stumped. I am currently running windows 8.1 and have the most up-to-date Adobe Reader XI.
    I haven't changed anything to my computer for it to interrupt the program. I have read the forums on here and elsewhere. I have:
    Un-installed and re-installed the program
    Repaired the program through the control panel
    I have run the TDSSKiller from Kaspersky which didn't find anything
    I have previously run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware software including the 'rootkit' option. Unfortunately I fell asleep and so did my computer so I lost everything from the scan (it takes hours for this scan) so I am currently running it today.
    I've conducted other advice that people have suggested on previous forums/discussions but it still hasn't been fixed
    If there is anything I could try then could someone please help me as this is very urgent!
    Thank you so much in advance for any comments or suggestions.

    Thank you for your reply but I have done everything on that page yet it still does not work :/
    Laura,
    In that case the only way is to uninstall the reader completely from the system and then to reinstall it.  The process is to use the Adobe cleaner and this is a free tool from Adobe downloadable from this link:
    <Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs>
    Download the tool and save it on your desktop or in a temporary folder.  then right-click on it and extract the files.  After extracting the files, run the file called: "AdbeArCleaner_v2.exe".  Then follow the simple instructions given on the screen.
    After the uninstall is completed, you need to restart the machine before you can install the reader again. 
    Hope this helps but please post back if this didn't work so that further help can be given.

  • Can't install run-time engine on Ubuntu 8.04. Get /bin/sh failed to load.

    Simply receive a message when trying to install the LabView run-time engine .rpm file that says /bin/sh failed to load (or is required, I forget exactly).  I checked, I have BASH installed, and /bin/sh is a shortcut to an executable on my machine.  Is this a bug in the installer, or is there something else I need?

    LabVIEW installation is not supported on Debian based Linux systems (of which Ubuntu is the most popular).  However, many people have had success installing to various flavors of Ubuntu.  You can search these forums using the key Ubuntu and find the problems they had and how they solved them.  If you cannot find an answer to your problem, let us know.
