IPhoto unexpectedly quits upon loading
I have iPhoto 5.0.4 yesterday it was working fine and today when i try to open it, it goes to the loading photos page then closes straight away and goes to the "The application iPhoto has unexpectedly quit." window. Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated.
I had the exact same problem, and I deleted the library. Now I have my files with all of my old pictures, but they aren't listed on the library when I open iPhoto. How do I get all of my pictures back into iPhoto?
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Iphoto unexpectedly quits upon launch.
I try to open up iphoto and it immediately tells me it has unexpectedly quit. I feel like I have tried everything to get it to work. I am not very great with computers though. Does anyone have any tricks up their sleeve?
ThanksiPhoto Fix:
Step #1
1: Open your Users/Library/Preferences folder (if on Lion you need to use the Go in Finder)
2: Scroll down until you see a file called
com.apple.iPhoto.plist
3: Trash it and reboot, start iPhoto and see if it works, reset your preferences in iPhoto.
Step #2
1: Go to your Users/Pictures/iPhoto Library and right (or hold option) click on it and "show package contents"
2: Inside will be a folder with your originals, copy them out.
3: Move and rename the iPhotoLibrary file outside of the Pictures folder.
4: Reboot and restart iPhoto, check inside the Pictures folder if iPhotoLibrary was created. Does iPhoto work now? Add a few new pictures, run fine? Could be a corrupted picture in your old Originals.
5: Download ClamXav and run a scan on the Original photo's and your whole machine too while your at it.
(it's if there is a picture in there from Windows it could contain a corruption caused by malware)
6: Reimport the originals back into iPhoto slowly and selectivly until a problem appears, it's likely a photo or two in the last small batch you imported.
Step #3
Go to System Preferences > Accounts and create a new user, log into it and try iPhoto, does it still have problems?
If so, then iPhoto needs to be replaced.
A: If your on Snow Leopard
Stick the grey OS X install disk into the machine and reinstall the bundled applications, then Software Update or
Hold c and boot off the grey OS X 10.6 install disk and reinstall OS X 10.6 over the installed version (backup files always before doing anything) this should install OS X and bundled programs (iLfie only comes free on grey OS X disks) and not touch your third party programs or files. Software Update.
B: If your on a later OS X version that is not the same as your grey OS X install disks that came with the machine:
Use a pkg file extractor like Pacifist to copy the iPhoto program, then Software Update.
http://www.charlessoft.com/
C: Install iLife from the iLife install disks
D: If your Mac came with Lion
Install iPhoto from AppStore.
And if your STILL having issues with iPhoto, consider a network issue and perform a
Restoring OS X 10.5 10.6. 10.7 - simple overwrite OS method
or even more drastic
10.6/10.7 "fresh install" method
outlined in my post here

My iPhoto unexpectedly quits. It looks like it is loading then a window pops up and says iPhoto quit unexpectedly. It says to "reopen" and I try it and the same things happens. I restarted it and made sure my mac is updated. Please help! Any other suggestions?
Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

i can't open my iPhoto, it was working very slow and now its not working at all, when i try to open it it shows this message: The application “iPhoto” unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows. Do you want to try to restore its windows again?
how can i fix this problem?There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 10 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have. -
Iphoto unexpectedly Quits - I am unable to open iphoto or access my pictures
I am experiencing problems opening iphoto of late. Each time I try to open iphoto or access the iphoto library using iphoto after a few seconds I get the message saying iphoto unexpectedly quit.

"iPhoto unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows"
When I try to open iPhoto, it says "iPhoto unexpectedly quit while trying to restore its windows," then gives me the option of restoring the windows or not. Whatever one I click, iPhoto opens for a second and displays a blank gray screen, then quickly closes and a notification pops up that says "iPhoto closed unexpectedly" and displays the following info. How do I fix this???

As i said above it was a test. It tells us that iPhoto is fine and that the problem is within your main Library.
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 Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager 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. .

I downloaded 200 photos, an event folder was created, I could see all the photos and was in the process of editing them when I got a message that iPhoto unexpectedly quit. I cannot find the photos anywhere on my computer now. Is there anything to do?
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 Library Manager it's the FIle -> Rebuild command)
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.

I am getting persistent "iPhoto unexpectedly quit" since last weeks upgrade to Lion 10.7.3?
It is usually preceded by a warning that the library is corrupted and needs to be repaired. I can still see the supposedly bad photos in Aperture without problems. I believe there is a serios bug in iPhoto.
One other clue here is that I attempted to download a new slideshow to my MobileMe Gallery immediately after the upgrade but even though it is still a valid Share option it did not work. After that with a brief exception I got the unexpected quits referrred to above.Have you previously marked Commodo's certificates as untrusted? The following discussion
https://discussions.apple.com/message/17473383#17473383
talked about a similar problem and I just enabled Commodo's root certificate in Keychain Access and now mobileme is working for me again with Aperture. -
IPhoto unexpectedly quitting on BRAND NEW MacBook Pro
I just bought this computer a couple of weeks ago. I used to have a MacBook, and all of a sudden (after 4 years of loyal service) it began having issues. So I bought a new computer a couple of weeks ago. It is the MacBook Pro 13" basic model. It has absolutely no upgrades, thusfar. All I have done is add my wedding photos to iphoto. There are around 2000, all ultrahigh quality. Yesterday iPhoto unexpectedly quit. This has happened a couple of times now, and I am also experiencing lag. I turn the computer off regularly, I don't download anything from anywhere but itunes etc. Why is this happening? Is it simply the amount of photos on my computer? When it quit unexpectedly I was editing my photos(playing with contrast, sepia, etc.). I am getting really frustrated, because these are the same issues that eventually drove me to buy a new apple. With such a big investment (for a college student) I am really upset about this issue. Please help me!?
Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create and use a new, test library. Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If the new library crashes try the following: 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.
If the test library works as expected then the problem lies with your current library. In that case
make a temporary, backup copy if you don't have a backup (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
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
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
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 but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Can't open iPhoto - unexpectedly quits
So a few days ago there was an error when I tried to import some pictures into my iPhoto, and ever since then whenever I attempt to open iPhoto I get the "The application iPhoto unexpectedly quit" screen. I searched through these forums and already tried deleting the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file followed by a restart and permissions repair from Disk Utility, but it didn't work - when I try again to open iPhoto after deleting the file, I still get the same "unexpectedly quit" screen.
Below is the crash log. Any help is much appreciated, and thanks in advance.

IPhoto unexpectedly quit during library rebuild
Last night, I did a clean install of OSX on my G4. Once I got all the updates in order, I reinstalled iLife '04 and then put those updates in place as well. I had been having problems with iPhoto previously. So, I decided not to just copy the library over, but rather rebuild it. Well, I have gone through the process twice, and as it is nearing completion (after 3 hours), iPhoto unexpectedly quits. The first time it did this, I could open the "rebuilt" library, but when shutting iPhoto down, it would beachball for over 30 seconds. When I open the original library and close down, it only takes a couple of seconds. Could I be having a problem with the fact that the original is on one drive and I am rebuilding to a different drive? Or is it just that there is something so terribly messed up in the original library that iPhoto is crashing as a result on the rebuild?
I now just trying to get iPhoto to quit crashing. The library is on my main drive now (an external since the internals no longer work).
iPhoto is consistently locking up during slide shows. Has been for the last two weeks. The SD card issue, well, I don't really know just now. I have not tried since the clean install was completed the other night.
I am thinking that there is something terribly wrong to which all of these issues could all be tied. I am just trying to give as much information as possible.
I am not really sure right now what is not necessary that I have tried? When one thing does not solve the problem, trial and error methodology is istituted until a solution is found. I am just hoping there is a suggestion I might have missed. -
As i was uploading pictures my iPhoto unexpectedly quit, and i lost all the pictures it was uploading, though it didn't upload most of them yet.
I tried it again and the same thing happened
Does anyone know why this is happening? I DO have a lot of photos on it, should that affect it if i still have adaquate memory left on my computer?
Thanks!You shouldn't have to take your iBook in yet. There's a lot we can try first.
And the first thing to do is to make a copy of your iPhoto Library folder (select it and type Command-I). Just a precaution. Next run Disk Utility and repair disk permissions and then manually set the permissions on your iPhoto Library folder as follows:
Setting Permissions for iPhoto Library Folder
1 - Select the iPhoto Library folder and type Command-I.
2 - When the Info window comes up go to the Ownership and Permissions section and make sure You have Read & Write permission and that the Owner and Group have Read & Write also. Others - Read Only.
3 - Then click on the "Apply to enclosed items..." button.
<table><tr><td align=left bgcolor="#FFFFCC">he only time I have had this sort of crash is the few times i tried to upload the same pictures.</td></tr></table>
iPhoto may be choking on the duplicate that you're trying to upload or it may be a damaged file. Also do you have any video clips in the camera?
I'd upload all of the files from the camera with Image Capture to a folder on the desktop and then reformat the card with the camera - Menu button and middle list. (Don't let iPhoto do it as there have been to many incomplete uploads and complete erasures.) See if they will import OK from the desktop. If so then take some test pictures with the camera and see if they import OK using your normal method.
For what it's worth, my preferred method of uploading from the camera is to either use a card reader or Image Capture and upload to a folder on the desktop. Name the folder with a descriptive name regarding the shoot. Then import that folder into iPhoto (I just drag it into the open iPhoto window). That will give you a roll titled the same as the folder. This give me a little more assurance that the photos get safely on my HD before I erase the card with the camera. Well, enough soap boxing. Good luck. -
Internet Explorer unexpectedly quits upon startup
What is the fix for Internet Explorer unexpectedly quiting upon startup. I've tried restarting my eMac but get the same message upon startup. Thanks!
Hello Bob,
Welcome To Apple Discussions!
I've had this problem but on OS9, the only fix i found was to uninstall and reinstall. Look here at Mactopia website for downloads.
Good luck!

OH CRAP! iPhoto unexpectedly quits.
Hello, my iPhoto application has been unexpectedly quitting on me, everytime I start it up. Last night my sister just accidentaly unplugged the power cord to my iMac, when she hooked up her digital camera to my computer. I then rebooted my Mac and there is when tragedy struck me.
I need a resolution for solving my problem, or I may need to reinstall iPhoto.
Regards,
The Wampus Cat

deleting the iPhoto preference file,
com.apple.iPhoto, located in your
User/Library/Preferences file. If that gets damaged
it will crash iPhoto upon launch.
I deleted the file, but iPhoto kept unexpectingly quit after I start up that application.

IPhoto unexpectedly quits ALWAYS
I've been using iPhoto 4.0.3 with fairly few complaints until recently. I got a new camera and tried loading photos into iPhoto, and the program kept quitting unexpectedly. Then, I tried using my old camera and the same thing happened. Now, even opening the program to look through all of my old photos gets the same result.
I looked into upgrading, but would need to upgrade my system, too (I think?). Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9) 14" 1.2 GHz PowerPC G4You didn't say how many photos were in your library. but a typical rebuild should complete in minutes, not hours.
Go ahead and quit (or force quit) iPhoto. In a Finder view, go to your user's Pictures folder. If you see more than one iPhoto Library folder in there, drag the one with the most recent date to the trash (the folder name probably ends in a number). Drag the original iPhoto Library folder temporarily to the desktop.
Launch iPhoto and choose "Create New..." from the resulting dialog. Once you see the empty iPhoto window, quit iPhoto. Back in a Finder view, drag your original iPhoto Library folder from the desktop, and drop it inside the newly created iPhoto Library folder in the Pictures folder. Don't replace; you want the old iPhoto Library folder inside the new iPhoto Library folder.
Now start iPhoto again while holding the shift+option keys to rebuild your photo library. This process wil recover your photos, but will not preserve any albums you mght have created earlier; keywords and roll associations will likely be gone, as well, but those can be recreated.
