IPhoto's 'Manage my Places' has stopped showing map and pins!!!?

I am using iPhoto '11 version 9.2.3.
Recently I stupidly decided to undertake the task of adding location info to all of my extensive library, spanning approx 15 years and a ridiculous amount of individual locations.
Anyway this task will now eat away at me until i have completed it, (or something similarly unnecesary takes over)
So, i've been at it for a few weeks now, but all of a sudden today (haven't been on it for a few days so may have started a little while back) i am now unable to edit the size of the 'vicinity' around a pin.
I am selecting 'Manage my Places' tool from the 'Window' menu at the top of the screen as i was before. But now, when the list of my places comes up, to the right, there is no longer a map with the pins from the hilighted 'place'.... it is just grey as the pic below shows.....
This is now hugely frustrating for me, as you can imagine. Does anyone know anything about this? or are having the same issue?
Thanks in advance for anticipated response.....

@MacFishy,
I had the same problem with IPhoto '09  8.1.2   The maps in Places disappeared on June 2nd.
I was able to fix Places by DOWNLOADING SAFARI and RE-INSTALLING.
A Best Buy Geek Squad tech fixed my Places on June 3rd.  He told me the problem was with Safari, not IPhoto. However, I don't know what he did to fix the problem.  (He could not have re-installed Safari without me knowing)
Unfortunately, the maps disappeared a week later.  I used the Geek Squad again, but could not contact the same tech.  Several techs tried, but could not fix Places.  The last tech directed me to Apple.com.
I was able to restore the maps for the individual pictures from discussions on Apple.com by turning the WiFi off and on.  The large world map did not return.
On June 24th, I went to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store.  Interestingly they were unaware of the Places problems.  When I mention that a tech said the problem was Safari, not IPhoto, he suggested that I try downloading Safari and re-installing.   Well that worked!  So far it is still okay.
I hope others will find this helpful,
Peggy

  • Windows Service Manager 32-Bit Has Stopped Responding/iPod not showing up in iTunes

    Hello,
    I've scoured this forum for answers but I cannot find any result that works. I have an iPod classic that I've connected to my Gateway running Windows Vista for over four years without issue. When I was using iTunes 9 the other day, I plugged my iPod into my computer, but it only connected to My Computer and didn't connect to iTunes and update my iPod accordingly. So, the iPod is charging and the iPod is showing the "Connected, Eject before disconnecting" screen, but it isn't adding new music (which kind of defeats the purpose of buying new music). I thought it was because I was using 9, so I downloaded iTunes 10, but the issue still popped up.
    This hasn't pop up today after I installed 10, but back when I was using iTunes 9 the following error came up on my computer: "Windows Service Manager 32-bit Has Stopped Working." Now, no error messages pop up, even though the problem persists.
    I've tried suggestions in this post as well as in this post. Also, with the fix being recommended in those threads to change the code in Notepad by clicking "edit" under the System tab under My Computer? There's one problem - there is no edit button on my options. I've included a screen grab to prove this.
    I don't know if the relative age of the discussions makes any difference - maybe a new fix has com up and i'm just not finding it? Plus, since this issue began with iTunes 9, I can't help but feel like getting rid of iTunes 10 is going to help the issue, either.
    This is incredibly frustrating, not being able to add new music to my iPod, so if anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it, as previously recommended ones aren't useful.
    Screen grab of iPod connecting to My Computer, but not iTunes:
    Screen grab of the lack of an "Edit" button in the place to edit codes as recommended in previous topics:

    Iphoto on my macbook pro has stopped working. It comes up with a message saying that the library is either being used by another user or it is unreadable. Any ideas why I should be receiving this message?
    "Your photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable"
    Offered solution doesn't work:
    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.
    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    I can't download photographs from my iphone or my digital camera.
    Any ideas on how I can solve this problem?
    There is a possibility that when I went to update applications that I started to install Mavericks which I then interrupted and cancelled. I am not definite that this caused this problem but it was at about the same time as when this problem started.
    Many thanks,
    Ed

    I have already copied my photographs to the a library manager but when I tried to reuse iphoto and import the photos back into iphoto, it would not let me.
    You can't "copy" your photos to the "library manager", there is just no way to any such thing.
    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.

  • Lightroom has stopped showing thumbnails on Import. How do I get my previews back?

    My Lightroom (5.3) has stopped showing previews on Import.  I can still see older Imports in Library but my latest Imports are just grey boxes.  I can open the boxes in Develop and these stay as previews for up to 3 thumbnails in Library before disappearing again.  I have tried reinstalling Lightroom 5.  I have checked my sRGB.  It is the same problem with different cards and different external drives.
    How can I get my Library to show Preview thumbnails once more?  Thanks, Angus

    Could it be that the Camera Software is installed and it got Updated?
    -Sometimes it happens that the "autoplay" uses the Codec for recognizing the files, and When Lightroom tries to do the same the files are in use, so it can not generate Previews/Thumbnails.
    Do you get the same result if you Try to Import from Safe Boot?
    - It could be that there is some software installed that now also manages during startup, also preventing Lightroom to Generate the Previews.
    Have you tested with a new Catalog, do you get the same behavior there?
    Also it might be far fetched, but incase you haven't seen it it might help you on the issue:

  • [SOLVED] urxvt has stopped showing accents

    Hello,
    Quite suddenly (to me) urxvt has stopped showing á, é, í, ñ and the like. They worked yesterday, and they still work in console and xterm -- the latter uses a different font, but the former does not.
    The relevant section of .Xresources:
    URxvt.font: -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
    URxvt.boldFont: -*-terminus-bold-*-*-*-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
    and the whole /etc/vconsole.conf:
    KEYMAP="es"
    FONT=ter-114n
    #FONT_MAP=8859-1_to_uni
    FONT_MAP=8859-1
    Is anyone seeing anything strange? The only relevant change I can think of is that I have removed initscripts. I've been using systemd for some weeks and (I thought) the package was just there sitting idly. Maybe it wasn't.

    I'm also experiencing this after the switch to systemd.
    ~/.Xdefaults
    urxvt*boldFont: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1

    /etc/vconsole.conf

    Maybe this has something to do with locale settings?

  • Iphoto has stopped uploading photos and frozen. I have paid online for the book - what to do?

    Hi there.. iphoto has stopped uploading photos and the programme has frozen on me. It assembled the book (step 1.), then did not complete the upload (step 2). Prior to these steps I provided my C/C detals and paid for the book.  i had to Force Quit the iPhoto app, and now wondering what to do!? If I try to buy the book again, then it asks for my C/C details...

    Did you get a confirmation email from Apple?  Click on the Store button at the top of this page and use the Account ➙ Track a Purchase link.  That will tell you if they received your book.  Apple doesn't charge the card until it is shipped.  You can also check with your credit card company to see if there's been a charge from Apple.
    Try previewing the book by Control-clicking in the background of the view all pages in iPhoto and select Preview Book or Save Book as PDF:
    If that process fails then there's a work around for it.  Boot into  Safe Mode and preview the book again to make sure you can get a PDF of the book.  If you can then order the book while still in Safe Mode.  Save the PDF file to compare with the printed book. If the PDF file is satisfactory the printed book should match it. 
    What size book are you ordering?  Xtra large?

  • Windows Connection Manager Profile Installer Has Stopped Working

    Hi all, I thank all who can help me with this problem beforehand and will do so after.
    I am an IT technician at a university in South Africa. I am trying to install a custom made VPN program that works perfectly on every other machine but not this one laptop.
    It is a Lenovo G580 laptop running Windows 7. Every time I try to install the VPN i get the error message that Microsoft Connection Manager Profile Installer has stopped working.
    I have made sure all the updates are installed.
    I have done disk check.
    I have done System File Check.
    I have done Windows Repair.
    I have coppied the cmstp.exe and ole32.dll files from one windows to the problem computer.
    I have taken permission of both the above mentioned files.
    I have done anti-virus scans and anti-malware scans.
    I have tested that other applications(not VPN's) install correctly.
    I have tested that the VPN installed correctly on other computers and pulled a new one to make sure the application was not corrupted.
    Error details:

    Hi,
    Generally speaking, this error can be caused by one or several of the below factors:
    a. The dll file is deleted accidentally from your system
    b. The dll file is damaged due to virus or spyware infection
    c. improper software removal
    d. The dll file was overwritten by an incompatible version.
    e. Outdated hardware drivers
    f. Too many invalid/obsolete registry entries.
    g. Related registry entries is corrupted.
    I would like to suggest you try the following steps to check the results:
    a. Do a system restore to undo recent system changes. If the error is just caused by the file getting corrupted or damaged, performing a system restore would help you to get a fresh copy back and also fix the related error well at the same time.
    b. Update the drivers for hardware devices and install any available Windows updates.
    c. Test in a new user account. If it works, please refer to Fix a corrupted user profile.
    Fix a corrupted user profile:
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile
    If the individual troubleshooting advice above is unsuccessful, performing a startup repair or repair installation should restore all Windows DLL files to their working versions.
    Hope it helps.

  • Why am I receiving the "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped" error message and how do I fix it?

    Why am I receiving the "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped" error message and how do I fix it?

    I am so upset. Please read my messages from my postings. This has nothing to do with SIM Card, Hard Reset, Apps, Google Gmail Account, nothing. I have gone thru all of this and NOTHING has fixed this. I went to the store today and spoke to the manager on duty. He said he had to try and duplicate the problem before he could help me. I showed him "screen captures" I did, told him it's out here on the board, etc. etc. Needless to say I ended up coming home with the same phone, "he" erased the phone and started over again. Well guess what, it's not a error with "MY" Gmail account being corrupted because if that is the case Mrs. Hayden14 has a bad Gmail account too. If you guessed it, the phone just crashed again! I was able this time to capture a report with ALL the history in it and saved screen captures to PROVE to him this is not a joke. Even the report says "Crash". This time it was something else I don't even or ever have used. I have also wasted over a day , yes a full work day on this without question.
    I have had to get the run around for the last day. This is totally ridiculous, including them putting me on hold for 55 min. Oh, that's another funny story. Anyways, tomorrow morning I am going to the Verizon store one last and final time and I hope they decided to do the right thing and give me a phone that does not crash and works. It would be handy at work for me, especially where I work at. I hope hope hope someone listens to and helps me. I would love for them to see me walk in, take my phone and say to me were going to get you another phone, hand it to me, see if it works and prove it's the device. I don't hear anyone having this issue on other phone types so sounds like its the phone type.
    I have had 3 phones now in the matter of 2 weeks. I am sure the FedEx charges will add up to a cost of a new phone at some point and start to outbalance your requirement to give me the same phone when it has the same problem.
    Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow.
