IPhoto is not responding/loading for ever/crashing when I start it

Hello
I hope anybody out there can help me with this...
So, whenever I click on the iPhoto icon on my iMac, the app launches and the window opens, I can see some of the miniatures of my photos, everything is normal.
But, when I try to scroll down in my mediathek or try to click on something, the colorful wait rotation starts..or the rotation wheel. whatever, I can´t do ANYTHING with iPhoto, I cannot use it anymore, but I really need to!
I tried everything, like force quit and start the app new, also shut down the iMac and do a restart and then trying it again, nothing!
It's always the same...evey starting iPhoto by simultanely pressing cmd + alt and then "repairing"...doesn't work.
and, needless to say, when I connect my iPhone with the iMac, iPhoto doesn't recognize the phone...but it's not working anyway. -.-
Infos about the iMac and the iPhoto version:
iMac 27', OS X 10.7.4, 2.8 GHz, 4GB, etc..
iPhoto: I don't know 'cause when I start it, I cannot even click on "about iPhoto" in the menu, cause everything is loading.. but it's the latest version there is until today, I guess, 'cause I did the last update not longer than a week ago.
I also had the same problem with my Macbook Pro, but that is already over 2 yrs old and I thought it was because it's old and getting slower..
but my iMac is not that old, and I just looked at the hard drive, which is not even half full...
BUT: The iMac works slower than usually, too, and is also running louder (Irealized it just this morning)
Please, can someone help me or give me any tips/hints/information/anything, what I could do about it? Or what the porblems could be?
I would be very grateful!!
Thank you in advance.
Yours, Barbara

Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it doesn't then the problem lies with your current library.
If that's the case 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.

Firefox 15 does not always load my home page when it starts up.

Started my computer. Clicked on the Firefox icon to start Firefox. My preferences include loading my home page (an html file on my computer) when Firefox starts. I have also set browser.newtab.url to the same thing.
Some of the time, a blank page shows where my home page should show.
My home page should have loaded.
If I click on "new tab", the new tab always seems to load my home page properly. It is only when I first start up Firefox that this problem may occur.
Since this is an intermittent problem, and there is a work-around (clicking on the "home" icon), this is undoubtedly a low-priority bug.

Since the time of Sea Monkey and Netscape, this problem has not arisen for me. It did not happen in Firefox 12. Only when I upgraded to Firefox 15 did this problem start happening. To me, a retired computer programmer, this feels like a regression. I'd guess at either an uninitialized vairable or a race condition.
In any case, Firefox should be able to handle being closed by clicking on the x in the titlebar. I shall continue doing so.
There has never been a hang at exit for me, so that is not something I will pursue.
In addition, since the problem did not occur ever until Firefox 15, I have done the following:
sudo yum downgrade firefox xulrunner
Both are now at firefox 12 level.
To keep things at that level, I've added to /etc/yum.conf the following:
exclude=firefox, xulrunner
I'm certain that my recent actions to downgrade will solve the problem and show that this is a regression.

I have I-phone 4S - Since updating to IOS 6, when at home with Wi-Fi network with my I Phone connection is not responding sometimes – for example if I want to check my G-mail it shows loading but nothing happens and after few minutes it displays “Cannot Get Mail” – The mail server “imap.gmail.com is not responding, Verify that you have entered the correct account info in mail settings
Other times the Wi-Fi connection works fine and it check e-mail or other within few seconds. The connection problems seems to be intermitted
This issue never happened before with IOS 5 since I bought the new phone in Oct 2011.

We suffered the imap.gmail.com server problem After an IoS 6 upgrade. The simple solution is to delete the problem account, shut down the iPad, start up again and reenter the account. Everything comes back normally. Good Luck everyone!

IPhoto - My iPhoto is not responding. When I click on iPhoto I get a never ending spinning beachball. I almost think it is looking in the wrong place for the pictures. How do I redirect it back to the Mac hard drive?

My iPhoto is not responding. Whenever I click on the iPhoto icon I get a twirling beachball. It is as if the machine is looking in the wrong place for the photos. How can I see where the machine is looking to find out if this is really the problem. How can I see the path?

Iphoto is not responding. I just finished importing all of my downloaded pictures (about 1,000) into iPhoto now this happens. I have version 9.5.1

iphoto is not responding. I just finished importing all of my downloaded pictures (about 1,000) into iPhoto now this happens. I have version 9.5.1. I am using OS X 10.9.5

Did you import an iPhoto Library from the old Hard Drive? Do you still have that old Library?
The way to clear out a Library is to Export the photos - Apps like iPhoto2Disk or PhotoShare will help you export to a Folder tree matching your Events.
For the annoying start-up message:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

Iphoto does not respond with batch change

Recently, when I do a batch change for example "descriptions" iphoto does not respond. I tried to see if it was the number of pictures that I was batch changing but it freezes even with one photo. I tried rebuilding thumbnails. Any ideas?

Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

Iphoto is not responding. I get the message, "Your photo library was not found. Do you want to find your iPhoto Library?

IPhoto is not responding except with the message: " Your photo library was not found. Do you want to find your iPhoto Library". Then, "iPhoto can't continue without a photo library. Make sure the disk containing your iPhoto Library is connected.
1. What disk are they talking about?
2. I can access my photos by clicking on ALL IMAGES in SEARCH FOR.
3. If I trash iphoto and re-install from my Install Disc 1, will I lose the photos?
4. If so, what can I do to save my photos and get iPhoto working?
I have an iMac with 10.6.8.

What version of iPhoto?
Is there an iPhoto Library in your Pictures folder?

Chose a photo to print, then the screen went grey (spinning white icon), and iPhoto will not respond

I chose a picture to print, but instead of a print dialogue box, the screen went grey and iPhoto will not respond. I have even shut down my iMac completely, but when I relaunch iPhoto, I get the same screen (grey with the spinning "thinking" icon). I am running the latest version of Yosemite on the iMac. Thanks for your help.

Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair the database and if necessary rebuild your database

"Not responding" appears for 60 seconds - why?

I am using Firefox ver. 4.0.1 with Google toolbar; Windows 7 Ultimate, 32-bit
When I click the Mozilla icon "Not Responding" appears for about 60 seconds. I wonder why this is happening? Could it be a service has not started? What is FF looking for or waiting for. What should happen when I click the Firefox icon? How can I log events and see exactly what did happen?

When I try to download pictures my iphoto will not respond

When I plug in my memory stick pro duo card reader iphoto opens up and displays the download communication and the rotating circle however it just keeps doing this and never downloads my pictures. When I force quit it says the iphoto is not responding.
Not sure what the problem is. It was working fine and now is not.

Can you access the material on the stick using Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) ?

Hi,
Some questions -
What platform are you running on ?
What version of Message Queue are you running ?
This can be determined by running imqbrokerd -v
(Post the output)
What is the nature of your application ? Is it a standalone
application or is it a message driven bean of some sort ?
Are there any errors/warnings in the Message Queue
broker logs ? The location of the broker log (platform
dependent) is listed in Appendix A of the Administrator's
Guide:

If you are running JDK1.5, there are vm commands which
can be used to get the same information ... let me know
General notes on sending a kill -QUIT
* you can not be running the broker in the background
or nohup'd (those block the delivery of the QUIT signal)
* you cant get the output from a broker that is started
by another process (such as the app server) because
those processes usually send stdout/stderr to dev/null
* the output from a kill -QUIT goes to stdout/stderr NOT
the broker log file (sorry we have no way to
intercept the information and log it)
* make sure you are sending it to the high level java process
(if you are using an older linux e.g. one that doesnt
have LWP's you may see lots of java processes)
To find the correct process:
- locate the imqbrokerd process
- find its children (with parent pid equal to the
imqbrokerd pid)
- kill the java process on that list
If killing the broker still doesn't work and you've checked
the above conditions ....something may be wrong or
deadlocked @ the vm level ...
- if so, what is the cpu doing when it occurs
- do you see anything if you ptrace the vm process

ITunes keeps loading for ever

my iTunes keeps on loading when I try to import music from my files on my Mac, and it keeps on loading for ever, how can i fix this?

I followed the steps that cazzo had. I can't find any thing with a manual sync.......but I did have it set to back up to iCloud instead of my computer. Which I just changed recently. I've reverted back to computer back up. Maybe one of us will get it right lol.

Workarounds for project crashing when exporting?

I have developed a project in captivate 6 which is now crashing captivate when I export it. I can preview it in 'Web Browser' and 'HTML 5 output'. But when I export it as a SCORM package it crashes. I was able to do that yesterday but today it's crashing.
Any suggestions? Any one?
Slides contain nothing fancy except just mp3s, text and graphics.
