My iphoto keeps shutting down while I'm typing a caption. Is there some way to avoid this?

My iphoto keeps shutting down while I'm typing a caption. Is there a way to stop that?

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
What version of iPhoto?

HT1766 When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really quickly. Is there any way of avoiding this ? Thanks

When I have iCloud Backup ON, the battery runs down on my iphone really really quickly. Is there any way of avoiding this. I want to backup my iphone but don't want to be recharging all day. Many thanks

Are you sure the iCloud backup is causing this? Unless you initiate an iCloud backup manually, it will only back up once per day when the phone is connected to your charger and wi-fi and has the screen locked. It shouldn't otherwise be consuming any power.

Iphoto keeps shutting down when making a book

Iphoto just keeps shutting down when I am trying to make a book. Every time it shuts down, it erases most of the content of my book. Help!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Where in the process does it shut down? When you try to drag a photo into the book or into a page?
If it's when trying to add a photo, can you edit that photo without crashing and do you use Photoshop Elements or Photoshop for any of your editing?
Do you Twango?
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 written an Automator workflow application, 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar

Windows keeps shutting down iTunes because of Data Execution Prevention. is there a DEP version of iTunes?

My iTunes program keeps shutting down shortly after loading. I get an error from Windows stating that a problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Then I get a message that states iTunes was closed because of Data Execution Prevention. It states to find a version that allows DEP or change your DEP settings. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, but still have an issue. Does anyone know how to fix this so that I can use iTunes?

Iphoto keeps shutting down during import

Is there a limit on the number of pictures you can have on iphoto? I am trying to load the pictures from my vacation (yes there are around 800 of them) and the computer either errors and shuts down the iphoto program. Or restarts the entire computer automatically. I don't know why it's doing either. I have the pictures on my laptop but I would like to put them on our big computer for editing and safe keeping. Thoughts on this?

Is there a limit on the number of pictures you can have on iphoto?
Yes. 250,000, so you may have some headroom there.
How are you getting connecting the two Macs together? While things can go wrong causing iPhoto to crash it would be very unusual to cause the Mac to restart.

Iphoto unexpectedly shuts down while importing photos

Recently iphoto has been shutting down every time i try to import photos from my camera. i originally thought that it was a problem with my CF card but i tried uploading with a new one and als an SD card but i have had the same problem. ANyone haveing the same problem, any ideas how to fix it? i am using v6.06.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
Ensure that you have the latest version of the OS (10.4.10), Quicktime (7.1.6) and the app.
1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts) and see if the problem is repeated there. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.
4. Are there movies on these cards as well as photos?

IMac keeps shutting down while in sleep

I have an iMac G-5 without iSight.......not sure if this started happening after the last sucurity update or installing HP printer software, but now when the computer goes into sleep, it waits awhile and then shuts down entirely, forcing me to turn the computer back on. I uninstalled the HP software, and repaired permissions, but this still keeps happening. Any ideas on what caused this and what I can do to fix it?
iMac G-5 Mac OS X (10.3.9) 80 gig hardrive which has about 2 gigs left

Hi,
I am having a similar problem. I have an iMAC (serial in the range W8435xxxxxx - W8522xxxxxx) and in the two weeks, when the computer is put to sleep it turns off. However, I only notice this in the morning after it has been asleep all night. The problem seems to be far more frequent when I put it to sleep as opposed to just letting it time out and go to sleep that way.
I have applied all updates and the only modification to the computer is extra ram (from Other World Computing).
I have seen elsewhere that I can see the computer's reason for shutdown in "system.log". Can anyone tell me how to find that so I can look for the shutdown code there?
Any ideas?

Mail keeps shutting down while it is connecting

When I open my mail it automatically shuts down within about 2 seconds while it is connectinb and returns me to the home page. My emails seem to be coming through but I just cant get into the mail page to look at them?

FWIW, I had similar trouble. I could apparently delete 3 or 4 emails using the "Edit" function, then mail would crash and emails would re-appear next time mail was opened. Mail would also crash on its own after 15-20 seconds even without trying to read or delete anything. Tried downloading an app, tried hard reset, tried restore and "new phone" restore. No dice.
In another thread here I found a suggestion to delete the email ACCOUNT from the phone and then re-create. User reported deleting all messages from server as well, but I didn't do that, and still had instant success. Apparently it's not necessarily the messages themselves that get corrupted. Try simply deleting the account and re-creating.

External hard drive keeps shutting down while trying to capture footage

I keep losing footage because my lacie hardrive has started dissconnecting itself while i'm in capture mode.
when i try to reconnect it won't allow me to open the project i'm working on.
i have never had a problem with the external drive before, i have checked my settings in FCE and they show the external drive as my scratch disc.
i have recently upgrade to quicktime pro 7....is there a compatibility issue?
anyone have any ideas?
thank you!

Is it unmounting from the computer? Was it correctly erased and reformatted when you first got it? It sounds as if the drive may be failing, or the cable is bad, or the enclosure has a problem. The bridge chip may be failing, which is not uncommon, though once they're gone they're gone and don't come back without removing the drive form the case.

My safari program keeps shutting down while I'm trying to use it on my iPad 4

Do you have any suggestions as to how I can stop this happening?

Tap Settings > Safari then tap to clear History, Cookies, and Data
Then restart the device.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

Some photos pulled from iPhoto turn green when placing them in a project. Is there any way to fix this?

I am using a Macbook Pro with 2GHz Intel Core i7 processor; 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 memory and OS 10.9.4. I have iPhoto 9.5.1 and iMovie 10.0.4. I have a project with video, and have added some still photos from my iPhoto Library. All of the photos appear fine until I add them to a project. Then some of them turn to a solid green. If I create a mp4 from this project, the offending photos remain green.
I have checked the offenders in iPhoto to see if there is a common denominator. There is no common camera and no common editing. I did make a previous attempt to place some of the photos into an iMovie project and some of them were dropped into the wrong place--like into a title. But didn't notice any glitches at that time, only afterwards and I'm not sure if any of the problem photos were a part of that incident.
I have absolutely no problem with iPhoto. Is there a library file that can be deleted to force iMovie to rebuild its connection to iPhoto.

Only to load your backup from before downloading the MM photos
