Iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.

iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly when trying to share photos on Facebook.This only started a short while ago. I never used to have issues posting pictures before. Moreover, it also tells me there are issues with my library and prompts a "repair" of my iphoto library. This is scary - I have tons of pics and I'm not ready to lose any of them! I did change cameras a month ago, but it is the same make as I had before - a Canon powershot SX150 IS. Could it have anything to do with it? Could it be the fact that I keep so many pictures in iphoto (10,000 +)?

How to backup? You should be doing regular backups - if you are not you will lose all of yoru files and photos sooner or later
If you are not ready to lose all of your photos then you need to pruchase an external hard drive and start backing up immdeiately - for simplicity I recoommend a Time Capsule and Time Machine - but any backup is better than none - I do two daily
For this simply make a temporary copy of your iPhoto library
Will it fix the FB problem - hopefully

  • IPhoto keeps quitting "unexpectedly" when exporting to FB/Flikr

    And gives me a message saying it has deleted the Flikr/FB album but the images still exist in iPhoto. It has happened several times. One time, the photos actually were NOT retained in iPhoto -- the date/event folder that held them in inexplicably empty. But mostly it just kills the export, says the FB/Flikr album has been deleted and then iPhoto quits unexpectedly.
    I'm going to go see if I can find the first 50 lines of the error log to post here. I've sent it to Apple each time.
    I'm fairly frustrated!

  • When trying to share photos to facebook iphoto abruptly quits?

    When sharing photos from iphoto to facebook (and sometimes emailing as well) - iphoto abruptly quits. Is there is reason for this and is there a fix?

    Kind of hard to answer without some details such as iPhoto version and OS version. Are you signed into your Facebook account?

  • Iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly

    I just bought a brand new imac. Just tried to save some pics from Photobooth and open them on iphoto but iphoto keeps quitting unexpectedly. It keeps asking me if I want to import some photos it has found when I launch it. It then quickly closes. I created another account and iphoto is fine with that account....what's wrong and how can i fix it on my original admin account? thanks

    A couple of things to try
    1 - quit iPhoto (sounds like that is easy ) delete the iPhoto preferences - hard drive ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iphoto.plist and restart iPhoto
    2 - if that does not fix it, quit iPhoto, right click (alt click) on the iPhoto library in your pictures folder (if you have not moved it) and select Show Package Contents - drag the photos to import (not positive of the exact name) to the desktop and start iPhoto - assuming that you are ok now you can try importing the photos from the desktop folder one by one to see which one is the problem

  • IPhoto '11 quits unexpectedly when ordering a book, gets about 2 pages loaded and then quits.

    IPhoto '11 quits unexpectedly when I place an order for a book.  After about 2 pages are uploaded or processed (the first step) iPhoto quits.  Software is up to date and I have ordered books before in earlier versions of iPhoto.  This is the first order in iPhoto '11.
    iPhoto has quit unexpectedly before but this is consistent when ordering a book.

    I have the exact same problem. If you try to "export as PDF" the same thing happens even with a new book project with no text and no photos. (You can make a PDF via the print command but that doesn't help much when ordering a book.)
    I deleted the iPhoto plist, did a restart, checked for bad fonts, checked and rebuilt the iPhoto library, tried signing in as a different user, checked for updates, repaired permissions, all to no avail. (I don't have any third party iPhoto plug-ins.)
    I happened to have another hard drive with a fresh OS on it - I installed iLife on it, did a software update. I opened iPhoto and picked my existing library and everything worked with out an issue and I was able to order my book.
    I assume that there is a software conflict in my system, I just don't have an idea what it could be.
    I think I'll wait for 10.7 and get a new hard drive and get a fresh start - unless someone can come up with a solution...

  • Why does idisc quit unexpectedly when trying to burn a disk?

    Why does idisc quit unexpectedly when trying to burn a disk?

    Since iDisk is an online service for keeping your data and has nothing to do with burning CDs or DVDs, you must be thinking of something else. What application are you using to burn? the Finder? iTunes? iDVD? Toast? Or something else?
    Is there an error message that appears when this occurs?
    Let us know, we'll keep working with you.

  • How do I stop my iPhoto from "quitting unexpectedly" when I try to import photos?

    How do I stop my iPhoto from "quitting unexpectedly" when I try to import photos?
    Whenever I try to import photos to iPhoto or even just edit photos on iPhoto, iPhoto quits unexpectedly.
    When I import a photo, before it is finished, iPhoto closes, and a message comes that says "iPhoto quit unexpectedly"
    What should I do?  How can I import my photos now? Please help!

    I have found if you iTunes open while importing photos to iPhoto it will quit unexpectedly - try closing iTunes. Also, try selecting and importing 100 or fewer photos per import...seems like it quits more often when trying to transfer large quantities (like over 200 photos).
    I wish Apple would update iPhoto with the same auto-sync feature in iTunes so I could sync photo libraries between computers without trying to figure out which ones are new (although as of this posting the other option is purchasing a 3d party photo sync program).

    Hi,
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
    Move the com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac.

  • HT2479 iMovie 09 (8.0.6 (821))  frequently quits unexpectedly when trying to use the "titles"

    I've recently started using iMovie 09 (8.0.6 (821)) on a iMac with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor and OS 10.7.5. iMovie frequently quits unexpectedly when trying to use the "titles" feature. Is there a solution other than upgrading to iLife/iMovie '11?

  • Iphoto is quitting unexpectedly when I double click a photo

    iphoto is quitting unexpectedly when I double click a photo within iPhoto to enlarge it or scroll all the way to the top to the most recent pictures.  Any ideas? I have the most recent version and all updates are done.  HELP!

    Now we try repair the original Library. Switch back to it:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    Then assuming you're using iPhoto 09 or later:
    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.

  • On New iMac 10.8, CS4 Program quit unexpectedly when trying to print

    I can't print since I have reinstall CS4 on my new iMac with english system 10.8. Program quit unexpectedly when I want to print. Is there a solution?

    You might have been able to just reapply the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for PPC or the OS 10.4.10 COMBO update for Intel without having to have gone through the motions of an archive and reinstall, with subsequent combo update.
