Problem when opening iPhoto

I installed iLife '06 tonight. When I opened iPhoto it said I would have to convert something and my pictures wouldn't be able to view on older iPhoto's. When I clicked yes only 1/10th of my pictures came back. The rest were just grey blocks and when I opened them it just had a question mark. I called Apple care and they said do the restore feature. I did that and it didn't work. Then I deleted all the photos out of iphoto and used my backup disks to restore them. I use backup 3 to do all my backing up. It put the photos in the picture folder but not in iphoto. Then i called apple care again and they said to restore the whole computer back to iLife 05 and try again. Has anyone else had this problem with installing it. I know the explanation is long but just wanted to state my case. I am currently reinstalling iLife 06 after restoring my computer

I fixed the problem. Guess I had a bad instal the first time. When i loaded it the first time the dock went away and I had to restart the computer. After I restored the computer back to out of box settings and loaded iLife 06 and it seem to work when i opened iPhoto back up

  • App Memory Leak When Open iPhoto

    Hi everyone,
    Does anyone have experienced app memory leak when open iPhoto?  My free memory immediate dropped from 5000 mb to 15mb when I open iPhoto and the app never open.  If I force to quit iPhoto, all return to normal and everything work fine.  I only have iPhoto app running, not sure what caused the memory leak??? 
    Looking for help. 
    Thanks

    Actually the new library was a test to see if the problem occurred only with your current library or with all libraries.  The fact that switching libraries cleared up the problem is just serendipitous.

    I have 15000 photos in my 1Phooto library in 58 events. I have also made 27 slide shows from some of these events. When opening iPhoto, the photoscome up slmost instantly but the side bar seems to take forever to come up.  Is there s limit to the amount of photos yu can have or to the amount if items in the side bar?

    Try this basic troubleshooting technique:  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 - reboot
    4 - 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.

  • Problem when renaming iPhoto Library

    I recently renamed two iPhoto Libraries. A day later I plugged in my external HDD to do a Time Machine (TM) backup and noticed that TM deleted ALL my previous backups except the last one, stating there was not enough space.
    My conclusion is that renaming these libraries caused TM to see them as NEW libraries and wanted to back them up all over again, meaning I needed 40GB of space rather than the 15GB available and let to the deletion of all my previous backups (without warning)!
    I have posted about this in the TM forum, but decided to mention it here as well to warn others of this potential problem.

    problem when copying iphoto library from ext hd to ext hd. stops after 2 gb saying there was data with same name on target hd. but that one is brandnew and freshly formatted.
    How are your external HDs formatted?  Both need to be formatted MacOS Extended (Journaled, not case sensitive) to work with iPhoto.
    If the file system differ, you may have problems with ambitious filenames, for example, if one drive is case sensitive and the other not.

  • When opening iPhoto 9.5.1 a dialog box appears: "A photo has been found in the iPhoto library that was not imported". "Would you like to import it?" After appearing twice iPhoto then opens normally with no changes and works OK. Why dose this happen.

    Unwanted dialog box when opening iPhoto.

    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
    Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?
    If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.

  • Strange problem when opening word doc situated in WLS virtual dir

    Hi all,
    we have a strange problem when opening word doc
    situated in C:\Oracle\Middleware\as_1\forms\webutil
    we put some word docs there and tried to open from forms using for example web.show_document('http://wp0606:9001/forms/webutil/mug00103.doc', '_blank');
    no problem using FF, however in IE8 the word doc is shown in its binary format, this also happens when we try to open the doc in IE8
    however when we google and search for instance for a test.doc and then click on this url a file save dialog is shown
    that's why we believe that this might be due to a configuration issue of WLS
    any help would be greatly appreciated

    I think you have 2 ways to go here. Figure out what html is from wherever weblogic gets it, meaning you have to delve into the docs, snoop
    around in directories and find what it must be sending (This is going to be unavoidable if you are going to change what weblogic is doing.
    Sooner or later you have to try to figure out where it gets this stuff from)
    or
    you can experimentally snoop on your url with a tool like wget or curl. These are fundamental web tools.
    The latter is always a useful thing to be able to do. (you need to formulate a query to get the content-type).
    Whoever managed to get weblogic to serve any files in the first place probably can figure this out.

  • Problem when opening "Mail"

    Dear members of the Apple Community,
    After transferring my files and my profile on my new Macbook pro, I keep encountering a problem when opening "Mail". Each time I try, the app asks me to choose a mail account to add, but I already added the ones I normally use. I can either create/add this new account or click the "cancel" button. I cannot use the program (the main functions are not available). But if I try to add a new account, Mail does not upload the new messages for my existing accounts and if I click "cancel", the application simply close itself. What could I do?
    Thanks a lot to your help.

    It might be worth running Disk Utilities and then Repair Disk Permissions to see if that resolves the problem.

    WiFi signals get stronger the closer the machine is to the router and the less interference/blocking of the signal like via walls with metal in them or of thick concrete.
    Since the signal emanates outwards in a sphere, your supposed to place the wireless router in a central location in the building so it covers all areas.
    The power of the router also has a affect, if your router is old or something not that powerful like a Airport Express, it doesn't have the ability to filter out other signals or enough punch to get through walls etc. or cover a large area as effectively.
    If you buy/have a powerful router of newer make and have issues where there is metal in the walls or thick concrete, then you can buy something like OpenMesh and by using Ethernet cables from the back of the router, extend the WiFi signal into other rooms and areas past the blockage.

    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.
    If that fails:
    Restore from your back up

  • Hitting a problem when transferring iPhoto library to External Hard Drive.

    Hi
    I am running a 3 year old MacBook with iPhoto 08, my hard drive is nearly full mainly with photos so I have just purchased a G-Drive Hitachi 500GB external hard drive, with a view to storing my iPhoto library thus enabling me to create some space on the computer hard drive.
    I did some online research and transferred my iPhoto library as follows:-
    I quit iPhoto and went into my pictures folder, located by iPhoto library file and dragged it to my external hard drive, after it had copied I went back into my pictures folder and re-named the original library 'iPhoto Library.Old', I then opened iPhoto by holding down the 'alt' key and was given the prompt to choose a library to open, I selected 'iPhoto Library.Old' from the pane and my pictures loaded up.
    This is when I came across a problem, I was under the impression that once the library had been transferred the the EHD in this way that the pictures/events on the EHD would remain in place. I deleted a few of my events on my computer HD, but when I checked the EHD they had vanished from there too.
    No photos are lost as I have them all backed up to CD, on line albums etc, but I am puzzled as to what I am doing wrong and how I get the photos on the EHD to stay put.
    My Time Machine automatic updates are off, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I seem to have hit a brick wall with this one.
    Thanks
    Ruth

    Hi Terence
    I have just opened the internal iphoto library to delete some photos, without the EHD being attached, when I plug in the EHD and open the iphoto library from there the pictures that I have just deleted on the internal library have gone from the EHD. I am obviously doing something wrong but I cannot fathom out what. My internal library has a different name ie 'iPhoto Library.Old' but both internal and external libraries seem to be still acting as one.
    I hope I'm making sense ?
    Regards
    Ruth

  • Problem about opening iPhoto

    When i open iPhoto 5 for the first time the program searches for photos, even if there aren't photos on my library.
    I've tryed to update iPhoto to the latest buid 5.0.4(263) but the problem still remain. I have the suspect that the problem is in the BezelService.framework folder, but i'm not sure.
    The console give me this message:
    2005-12-12 10:23:32.113 iPhoto[267] * +[CIPlugIn _addPlugIn:allowNonExecutable:]: selector not recognized
    Maybe this is the problem? It is possible to substitute this plugin?
    I hope to have explained well enough my problem.
    Thanx for your help, if there's one

    Alessio,
    Someone in the past had the continuous loading of photos problem and it was related to installing iPhoto using Pacifist.
    This is the file that was missing for the other posters.
    /System/Library/Private Frameworks/AppleAppSupport.framework
    If there is another Mac around that has this file, you can copy it to your Mac.
