Problem adding Photos, changing layout

Question

I'm trying to create a Book and when I change layout or want to change the picture, the page goes blank and can't add/change photos or layout?

Answer 1

Since the new library worked OK indicates that your orignal library is damaged to the point that it's not repairable. We've tried all of the fixes we know about.
This may be your next step which would mean recreating the book from scratch:
Starting over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Open the library package like this.
2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
3. Drag the subfolders of the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window a few at a time.
This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.
Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
