IPhoto Hangs When Opened

When I try to open iPhoto, it says Loading Images and just hangs. I've tried the Command-Option Open thing but that doesn't work either. What should I do next?

Senja
Try going to Home/Library/Preferences and delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file and see if it will launch.
If that doesn't work, use Disk Utility to repair permissions.
If that doesn't work, create a new account (SystemPreferences > Accounts) and see if it will work there.

I deleted the photos via Finder and empty trash long time ago. The thing is, that I want to recover one event or album. The event appears in the iphoto but when open, it shows "!". Is it possible to recover the photos?

No. When you removed the photos via the finder you damage the library. Photos should always be removed from the library using iPhoto, never with the Finder.
If you have a Time Machine backup of the library from before you deleted the photos you can restore the library to the Desktop and export that album from it to import into your current library.
It's been too long to be able to try one of the file recovery applications. You sure to have overwritten those files with new files since them.

JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 hangs when opening project from JDeveloper 11.1.1.6

Hello! I have a problem here which I can't solve. I also asked this question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14365031/jdeveloper-11-1-2-3-hangs-when-opening-project-from-jdeveloper-11-1-1-6/14369211#14369211 . The whole story in short. I have a JavaEE client-server project in JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, where it works like a charm. Recently I had to upgrade JDeveloper version to the latest 11.1.2.3. The first problem was that the standard procedure of migrating project from the older version of JDeveloper to the newer one did not help: IDE was hanging forever all the time with no apparent (for me) reason, log file was silent about that. Then I tried another way: I just created the same project from the beginning and put there all necessary source files, libraries, set project properties etc. Still nothing, but now found the way to obtain a kind of error at least. I ran C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdev.exe from the command line and got the following (e.g. when I started running debug):
Jan 16, 2013 8:52:09 PM oracle.ideimpl.runner.StarterFactoryDescriptionImpl logError
SEVERE: Incorrect hash-structure value in starter-factory definition
Jan 16, 2013 8:52:10 PM oracle.ideimpl.runner.StarterFactoryDescriptionImpl logError
SEVERE: Incorrect hash-structure value in starter-factory definition
But I don't know what could be the next step... Could anyone help me? Thanks in advance for your attention!

Hi,
not sure if you have a support contract or work for Oracle. In both cases the best option is to file a bug (service request)

Photoshop CS3 Hangs when opening files

PS hangs when opening, duplicating images. The longer it's on the longer the wait. I'm talkin' 15 - 20 seconds. Deleted the prefs multiple times.
Anybody else having this problem?

Set your default printer to something local, that is actually hooked up.
When Photoshop creates the document, it asks for the default printer information - and your printer driver is taking a nap while trying to connect to the printer.

Adobe reader XI crash and hangs when open the pdf file

After update the adobe reader xi 11.0.10, the reader always crashes and hangs when open the pdf file. Please help me how to do.

What kind of advertisement? In Adobe Reader? Can you post a screenshot of that: https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1070933
Regarding the crash, can you try disabling Protected Mode through the registry: download, unzip, then run the registry script https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/49eeb48b-07c5-4502-984c-8a25259914fa

Microsoft Word Hangs When Opening Document From SharePoint 2010 Document Library

I am running into an issue where Word hangs when opening certain files from a document library. When the issue occurs, Word opens and hangs at the Downloading <Doc URL> stage. I have tried disabling the SharePoint plugins in IE and that
makes no difference. I can download a local copy of the file and open in just fine. The file in questions exists in a separate document library where it can be opened just fine (The file was copied to the library where the issue is occurring by
a Workflow). The issue also has only occurred on .docx files and not .doc, however, not all docx files are having the issue.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what might be causing this?
Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that when you opened a certain files from a document library, it hanged at the downloading stage.
I tried to reproduce the issue, after coping by a workflow, the .docx files opened well in my environment.
Did the issue occur in other documents libraries? You can copy the files to a new documents library by workflow, then check whether it works.
For more details we also can check the SharePoint ULS logs.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS
Have you check your IE settings (Tools->options->connections->LAN settings->uncheck Automatically detect settings).
Please also use fidder tools to detect the process. You can download it by the following link.

Dreamweaver hangs when opening

Running DW MX 2004, with updater 7.0.1 applied, on a Sony PC
with Win XP, DW hangs when opening. I have waited as long as 10
minutes to see it it every responds, and it doesn't.
I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and terminate the application. When
re-opening, it opens normally.
Not connected to a network, site files on local C drive.
It seems to have started happening after applying the 7.0.1
updater.
Anyone have any solutions to this?

Hi JillTW,
DW 7 had some serious time lags. Search the
Macromedia.Dreamweaver groups on
Google's groups for slow DW and look for postings over a year
old. The fixes
they discuss may help solve your lockup problem.
If you are working on a large site, 10 minutes might not be
enough time for
DW 7 to resolve cache issues. Look at your Task Manager to
see if it is
working (high cpu usage on Dreamweaver.exe) or not
responding. Even if it is
not responding a high CPU usuage may mean it is in progress
and just
ignoring the keyboard/mouse.
Also, you might want to try to clear the site cache (or just
check its
size - a little one should not take long to process even if
corupt) before
starting DW. Adobe tells how to remove the cache here:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=5989f7f4
Look for the cache in: C:\Documents and
Settings\<user>\Application
Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX 2004\Configuration\SiteCache
The file is named: {yoursitenamehere}.dws
I suggest moving it to another folder for safe keeping until
you know if
this is the problem.
Upgrading to DW8 is a major improvement in speed.
Best of luck,
Alan C

Latest Reader Hangs when opening any pdf with 'tools' selected

Any pdf will hang when opened in the latest Acrobat Reader (Either from file or open Acrobar Reader first.)
However if I first open Reader and turn off the tools (Tools top right) I can then open any pdf without problems.

Can anyone help.

Try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Dreamweaver CS6 hangs when opening file

Starting recently Dreamweaver CS6 hangs for 30 seconds or more, sometimes saying not responding, when I open an HTML file. It appears to do this when the file contains links to external places. To test I created a file that contained nothing except the "new HTML file" basic headers, saved the file, then opened. This test file did not hang.
I have tried the registry fix "ResolveRemoteURLToIPAddress FALSE" and deleting the personal configuration directory (with Dreamweaver closed). Neither of these solved the problem. Dreamweaver still hangs when opening a file.
Any other ideas?
Barry.

Once the document opens, check the code for any protocol relative links (links that start with // rather than http://) and change them to http:// links, at least during development. It is a know issue to Adobe and will cause what you describe.
If you don't have any protocol relative links, links to third party sites can cause issues from time to time if their servers are slow or have any kind of conflict with your network. Unless you absolutely can't, you may want to copy those external scripts to your local site and link to the local versions instead, again, during development.

InDesign CS6 (8.1) hangs when opening documents, intermittent

InDesign CS6 (8.1) hangs when opening documents, intermittent, and a document that hangs InDesign, after restarting InDesign, will open fine. I found the following track, Re: InDesign CS5.5 Not Responding for instructions to "force a hang into a crash" and am posting the crash logs to pastebin.com
This is the sample process report OPI_Sample9MAY15 - Pastebin.com
This is the corresponding InDesign Crash log OPI_InDesignCrashLog9MAY15 - Pastebin.com
I am hoping that someone might be able to read the logs and tell me what is causing InDesign to hang
For more background information we are using Mac OS X 10.10.3, Within indesign we are using an editorial management software called "NewsEngin GPS" that utilizes Rohohiko's ADIP ToolAssistant plugin and an advertising management plugin "Pagelink" from Mactive/NewsCycle Solutions. These are the only 3 third party vendors that are being used and of course all claim that their products separately are stable under Mac OS 10.10 and InDesign CS6 v8.1.

Did you try to export the INDD file to IDML, open that and work with the new files?

IPhoto crashes when opening library over AirPort

I'm having major problems with my iPhoto library when opening iPhoto. If the external hard drive on which the library is stored is connected to my AirPort Extreme iPhoto says "loading photos" and then crashes. However, if I plug the external hard drive directly into the USB port on my MacBook it opens fine with no problems whatsoever.
Is anyone able to help me? Should I also post this in the AirPort Extreme area?
Many thanks...

Kempard:
I've had no problem opening libraries wirelessly withe AE when the drive was connected to another Mac connected to the AE. But many users have experienced just what you've experienced when the drive was connected directly to the AE. How is the drive formatted? iPhoto likes OS X Extended best.
Do check the AE forum as a different setup g instead of n or whatever, might word. Opening photos wirelessly can be very slow depending on the size of the file, etc. It's not an ideal setup.
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.

Post back with the result.

Iphoto hangs when attempting to print photo

iphoto hangs when attempting to print photo even after rebuilding library

With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a solution. We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
what version of iPhoto are you using?
what system version are you running?
what fixes have you tried?
where is your library located?
did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
what type of Mac?
how much free space on your boot drive?
