IPhoto goes non-responsive when sharing a Photostream

I just upgraded iPhoto to the latest version and now when I'm trying to share an existing Web Photo Stream, the app takes over 100% of the CPU for about 30 seconds then goes unresponsive never to come back.  Any ideas?  I'm able to create a new one.  It's very slow but I will create one.
iMac 3.2 GHz i3, 16GB 1333 DDR3 and Moutain Lion 10.8.2

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
Post back with the result.
I understand that Aperture is effectively an add on for iPhoto

  • Aperture 1.5 goes non-responsive when quitting

    Hi guys, I can't find this previously reported, so I'm going to hope someone has some help for this. I just upgraded from Aperture 1.1.2 to 1.5 without any problems, or so it seems. Since I'm on an MBP with 100gb of space, I maintain two libraries: one "working" library on the internal, and one "in case" library on an external USB 2.0 HD where I store everything once I'm through working with it.
    I've turned off all my preview processing as I have no need for that. When I have Aperture pointed to the working library, on the internal HD, I can quit with no problems. However, when I am pointed toward the external drive library, when I quit Aperture... Aperture doesn't seem to want to quit. Looking at Activity Monitor, Aperture has gone into "Not Responding," even though it's still using quite a bit of processor / RAM resources. When I feel the external HD, I can feel that something is going on b/c the write head is writing.
    Anyone have ANY idea what's going on here? My libraries there are upgraded completely; all previews are turned off / deleted. It's quite odd, I think.
    Thanks in advance!

    Not sure if the Previews had anything to do with it or not, but it's now shutting down just fine off the USB drive. I kept messing with it, and finally let it "run" for about an hour. It still hadn't finished trying to do whatever it was trying to do, so I force-quit Aperture. Re-opened to the working library on the internal disk, and shut down. Opened Aperture again, pointed it to the external library, and re-opened Aperture. Messed around in that library for a few minutes, and quit. No problems, cleared right out. No idea what was causing it, but it seems to be fine for now. [crosses fingers]

  • IPhoto goes non responsive on load up

    Hiya,
    Running iPhoto with Aperture for my photography AS level. Both applications have serious issues loading up. I understand that Aperture is effectively an add on for iPhoto and they both use the same library hence why I am placing the blame on iPhoto.
    I have around 1500 photos loaded onto the top spec 13 inch macbook (see product description).
    I get this in activity monitor for a good 3 minutes before the library loads. I was under the impression that Flash storage was fast....
    Thanks in a advance for your help

  • IMac OS X, iPhoto permanently non responsive after attempted download.

    I was downloading about 20 photos and 3 vidios from memory card using the iMac slot.  After selecting download for all the new images iPhoto became non responsive and required a force quit.  iPhoto now goes non responsive (after about 10 to 15 seconds) every time I start it.  The event that would have been created by the download shows but appears to be empty.  If there was some way I could delete this event I'm thinking (guessing)  it might fix the problem, but have been unable to find a way outside of iPhoto.   Thanks in advance for any suggestions.   OS X 10.6.8  iPhoto 8.1.2

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> 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.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Bridge goes non responsive

    Bridge goes non responsive after clicking on folders tab. Tried resetting pref. and this works sometimes but not always. running xp pro with 4gbs or ram
    any help would be great
    thanks

    I've got the same problem - I'm running Win7 x64 with 4GB RAM, Adobe Bridge CS5
    When I start Bridge it starts in "Not Responding mode" and after I wait for a while it resumes, however whenever I click on a folder to view the images inside I have to wait while a message is displayed in the left bottom corner under the "Filter" tab saying "Building Criteria..." and this happens every time I click on a folder even if I go back to a folder where I've already been. This is extremely annoying and makes this great software a pain to use. I think this started happeneing after I installed an update just recently, before that I had no problems using it at all except a few glitches in the interface.
    Please help so that I can use the software!
    Thanks
    P.S.: and btw what was suggested in the previous post doesn't work!

    Where is your vault stored? Is it on a drive with the correct formatting - MacOS Extended (Journaled)?

  • FMS Goes Non Responsive

    It seems every couple of days, our FMS (latest version) goes
    non responsive. By this I mean, the connections on the RMTP/HTTP
    ports fail. (verified using
    http://www.404404.com/flashcomporttest/)
    We're using nothing more than the sample guestbook
    application, and find that after a couple of days, we don't get
    playback.. and have to restart the fms. Once we restart, the sample
    guestbook app works fine again. We're running the FMS on linux. Has
    anyone else had this problem?

    I seem to rememer a problem like this in FMS 2.0, with a
    bugfix issued in the 2.0.1 update. Have you updated to the latest
    version of FMS?

  • Help! iPhoto troubles - non responsive/potential loss of photos

    Hi, my iPhoto crashed a few months ago and after an automatic repair option, it's no longer working properly. Amongst the problems that I have been experiencing include:
    - preview icons for each event or album do not display properly (i.e. the same photo shows up);
    -  it's extremely slow and non responsive, and usually leads to me having to force the programme to quit without achieving any thing with my photos.
    If I reinstall iPhoto, how can I ensure that my photos are now accidentally erased forever? I have not backed up most of the photos I am afraid.
    Any tips would be extremely welcome!

    Give the following a go: apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Messages loads in 10.10.1 then goes non responsive

    After the 10.10.1 update, Messages will load but then immediately goes into the spinning beachball of non-responsiveness causing me to force quit.
    What I've tried so far to resolve this:
    1. Logging out and back on to iCloud
    2. Ctrl-Alt-P-R on restart in case it was a PRAM issue
    3. Restore via Time Machine backup (not allowed due to the deep integration of Messages in Yosemite)
    4. Re-installing Yosemite
    Unfortunately I haven't discovered a way to remove Messages off my HD and try reinstalling.
    Cheers

    Back up all data.
    Quit Messages if it’s running. Force quit if necessary. Relaunch it and test after each of the following steps. If the problem isn't resolved, quit again and go on to the next step.
    Step 1
    Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked
              Keep login keychain unlocked
    is not checked, check it.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain.
    From the Category list in the lower left corner of the window, select My Certificates. Look carefully at the list of certificates in the right side of the window. If any of them is marked with a red "X" as expired or invalid, delete it. Also delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name, whether valid or not.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences... ▹ Certificates
    There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to  CRL.
    Log out and log back in.
    Step 2
    Hold down the option key and select
              Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
              Containers/com.apple.corerecents.recentsd
              Caches/com.apple.Messages
              Caches/com.apple.imfoundation.IMRemoteURLConnectionAgent
              Containers/com.apple.iChat
              Containers/com.apple.soagent
              IdentityServices
    Leave the Library folder open. Log out and log back in.
    Step 3
    Go back to the Finder and move the following item from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
              Messages
    Note: you are not moving the Messages application. You’re moving a folder named “Messages.”
    If Messages now works, delete the Messages folder on the Desktop. Otherwise, quit Messages again. Put back the folder you moved, overwriting the newer one that may have been created in its place.
    Step 4
    In the Preferences subfolder, there may be several files having names that begin with any of the following strings:
              com.apple.iChat
              com.apple.ids
              com.apple.imdsmsrecordstore
              com.apple.imessage
              com.apple.imservice
    Move them all to the Desktop. There may also be a file with the name "com.apple.imagent.plist". Move that to the Trash.
    Also in the Preferences folder, there's a subfolder named "ByHost". Open it and do the same thing.
    Log out and log back in. Test again. This time Messages should perform normally, but your settings will be lost. You may be able to put back some of the files you moved to the Desktop in this step. Relaunch and test after each one. Eventually you should find one or more that causes Messages to malfunction. Delete those files and recreate whatever settings they contained.
    If the issue is still not resolved, quit Messages again and put all the items you moved to the Desktop back where they were. You don’t need to replace the items you moved to the Trash. Stop here and post your results.
    If you later decide that you don’t like the results of Steps 3 and 4, you can undo them completely by quitting Messages and restoring the items you deleted in those steps from your backup.

  • CS4 becomes non-responsive when I right click

    When I go to open a document in CS4 and then try to right click, delete or move files while I'm in the open screen, Photoshop becomes non-responsive and I have to shut it down and restart it, thereby losing any unsaved work. It's been doing it for awhile and I've tried to find a solution, but haven't had any luck. I've deleted my cache and that didn't fix the problem.
    Can anyone help, please?

    Check the mouse/driver.  The functions you mention are controlled by the OS even though you are in PS.

  • Pages is non-responsive when it opens

    Pages, version 5 is non-responsive whenever it opens. It's very frustrating as I have created several documents which I cannot access. Why is there no option to open these documents with the previous Pages' version? Everytime the application is force quit, I have a report sent to Apple. Why is there no update to correct this glaringly bad application?
    Shame on you, Apple!

    Update your operating system to 10.9.2, and Pages v5 to v5.1 in the App Store Updates section. Then use /Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility to verify/repair the permissions on your boot drive. Do the first two sentences resolve your Pages v5 hanging issue?
    Pages v5 has had two updates (5.01, and 5.1) since last fall. Apple has suggested more to come, but they don't share their plans or schedules with this user to user support community.

  • ITunes now becomes non-responsive when adding new music

    Hello.
    For a few months now iTunes has gone from quick importing of new mp3 and m4a files from my desktop, down to very slow importing after a long pinwheel, and now finally the endless pinwheel whenever I add any files. (It can go on hours, and requires force quit).  My collection is large (50k files / 1TB or so), and the media sits on an external hard drive, but I have tried creating a new library from scratch on the desktop (and internal hard drive) and I still get the same endless pinwheel when adding just a few new files.  The only other clue I have is that when the importing slowness just started, a third party metatagging application I use (TuneUp) was not recognizing the newly imported files as having been imported by iTunes, whereas I did use iTunes to import.
    I am loathe to create a new library altogether as I've done much editing within iTunes to my large collection.  (See this article: iTunes: How to re-create your iTunes library and playlists - Apple Support)
    I am using latest Yosemite version (10.10.2) on a 2011 Mac Mini with a recent SSD inside (iTunes worked fine after the SSD upgrade a year ago).
    Thanks for any help!

    Start by removing "TuneUp." See whether there's an improvement.
    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and except as stated in this comment, I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmymac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button. The uninstaller might also be accessed by clicking the Customize button, if there is one.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    You will generally have to restart the computer in order to complete an uninstallation. Until you do that, there may be no effect, or unpredictable effects.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.

  • OS X Lion non responsive when Time Machine kicks in

    Say, has anyone noticed any issues with Lion, where the OS seems to freeze (with Spinning Beach Ball), for anything up to 30 secs or more?
    I've found, that when I've got iTunes going, and Time Machine kicks in to back up, I'll get this "freeze", and the audio stops.  Or, if I quit a program, I'll get the beach ball and no response for ages, before the program finally quits.
    Never happened in 10.6.x

    Oh, come on!   Seriously?  This is NOT NORMAL.  I've been a Mac user for several years, and I product a podcast at http://HelpIGotAMac.com with ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY NINE episodes devoted to answering people's questions about the Mac.
    Dude, I've had Time Machine backign things up since they came out with Time Machine.  Until a few days ago, Time Machine had NEVER ONCE stopped the playback of my music in iTunes, gave me a spiinnng Beach Ball and kept me from performing ANY OTHER TASK AT ALL on my Mac.
    This IS NOT NORMAL!!!!!!!
