Self terminating/quiting IPhoto

Can anyone tell me why my IPhoto is constantly not responding and quiting...
Today after 20min. of work I sent 3 or even 4 to 5 error reports to apple and after almost 20 or more in up to 10 sessions of photo book working. I really suggest Apple to work on this if it's not just with me.. whether my mac is responsible or simply the software itself.. ??!!!
Look, I just wanna make this awesome photo book of London which I'm really looking forward to order... but with time I more and more consider not to buy one just because of this awkward app called IPhoto and it's photo book functionalities, which are basically great but they have to work!
When I first expierienced IPhoto it was just a great and cheerful moment, but now I'm definitely ******. Not cauz of the photo management but rather because of not being able to accompolish a single photo book without a self terminating IPhoto..
I just wonder If I'm the only one with such a thing, am I!?
Any help ?
kind regards Thomas

Okay... there is this 'I have no idea what the issues could be', thing!
What happens ?
I'm sry that I don't take a screenshot or simply copied the error message out of the error report but I'm really to tired looking at that but I promise I'll catch up on this later. It's always the same thing and right 10 minutes before it occured almost 5 times with a delay of 5 minutes! So every 5 minutes my IPhoto is quiting and asks me if I want to send and error report or whether I wanna reopen IPhoto..
When does it occure ?
Simply while I did do some edit work on a photo for example or writing a description for some pics. I already reinstalled OSX once.. and at both times I had this probs.. The only concern now is whether Apple is regognizing the error reports or not, just and informal thing.. which I would be pleased to know!
maybe it's some issue with the lib but as you already wrote it's unlikely.. but I now really consider to reinstall I Photo. What about support hotline ? Could they help me ... or better if I call them can they actually see my error reports and tell me where the issue might be?
regards Tom

i cannot open iphoto- the message I am getting says 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-
I tries and it doesnt work!!

What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
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.

After OSX v10.8.2 Supplemental update of 11/2012, whenever I try to open Terminal app I get "Terminal quit unexpectedly".

I get Terminal quit unexpectedly with the an error trace as shown below. As far as the app should be concerned it is being opened for the first time as this is a new profile and the following user preference file isn't present ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist.
Just incase the image file isn't all too legible. I see

Iphoto crashed while trying to share photo to Facebook, can't quit iPhoto or shutdown mac

please help....???

Have you tried to force quit iPhoto?
shift, command,esc
or force mac to power down?
Hold power button till it turns off.
If either of these don't work, take a trip to the Apple store.

What will happen when I quit iphoto during repair?

I force quit my iphoto because the whole computer was running slow.
then when I open it again, it pops out a window asking to repair. I let it repair
but it wasn't really moving and took so long. I was wondering what will happen
if I quit iphoto now?

Make a back up now, so things at least can't get any worse.
Then quit and try again.
If that fails:
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.

Facebook albums removed! Have to force quit iPhoto

My wife has a Facebook account and this morning uploaded photos from her camera into iPhoto '11. Then she deleted the ones she did not like and edited those she kept. She then highlighted them all. Clicked Share and Facebook and then iPhoto started popping up messages saying that past Facebook albums have been removed. The only way to stop this was to force quit. She has lost about 15 albums.
I restored my whole system from Time Machine and reverted back to iPhoto '09. The Facebook albums are still lost but the rest of the program seems to be running fine.
Can anyone offer any help or advice? Why is this happening?
Thanks.
Thom

I am having the same problems as everyone & am going to do what Thom has done & use Time Machine to restore my Macbook Pro to before I installed iLife 11.
I followed all the advice from the Apple Store about installing ILife 11 - I backed up on Time Machine, Installed iLife 11, then did a software update before opening any iLife programs. I have double checked & find that there are no other updates available.
The problems I am having with iPhoto 11 are:-
1. My Facebook albums are being deleted & the only way to stop this happening is to Force Quit. iPhoto.
2. There is no longer a list of all my Facebook & Mobile me albums in the left hand side folder list, so I am unable to drag more photos into the albums.
3. Some of my mobile me galleries have been changed & photos deleted or in the wrong albums.
4. When emailing photos, there is only the photo templates available to use. Trying to save a photo from the template in the received email is impossible - you only seem to be able to save the whole template. Is there a way of sending multiple photos in a chosen size without the template as in iPhoto 09?
iPhoto 11 is driving me crazy - I daren't even look at iMovie as I dread to think what has happened to that!! I much prefer iPhoto 09!!
Do you think that I can get a refund for iLife 11 if I take it back to the Apple Store?
Off to restore my Macbook & be rid of iLife 11!!

I burned photos to a CD-R and the CD-R automatically ejected. Now I keep getting an error message that says to complete the burn before I can quit iPhoto.

I burned photos to a CD-R and the CD-R automatically ejected. The photos are now on the CD-R. Now I keep getting an error message that says to complete the burn before I can quit iPhoto. I can not shut down the computer until iphoto shuts down.

Hit Command + Option + esc on your keyboard and force quit iPhoto. I'm sure it just got stuck talking to your optical drive.
Hope it helped

After quitting iphoto computer jams

Hi there,
After quitting iphoto, my computer jams and a blank blue screen appears. I have to hold down the power button to shut it down and then start up again.
Everything appears normal after that. Any ideas?
Thanks Sally

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
Step 1
Select "system.log" from the file list. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes) in the search box. Note the timestamps of those log messages, which refer to the times when the system was booted. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Post the messages logged during the time something abnormal was happening. That time might be before or after the boot.
For example, if the problem is a slow startup taking three minutes, post the messages timestamped within three minutes after the boot time, not before. If the problem is a system crash or freeze, post the messages from before the boot time, when the system was about to crash or was failing to shut down. In either case, please include the BOOT_TIME message at the beginning or the end of the log extract.
Post the log text, please, not a screenshot. If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
If the log doesn't go back far enough in time, scroll down in the Console file list to /private/var/log/system.log.0.bz2. Search that archived log, and if necessary the older ones below it, for the same information.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
Step 2
Do the same with kernel.log.
Step 3
Still in Console, look under System Diagnostic Reports for crash or panic logs, and post the most recent one, if any. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

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.

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

Suspicious message when quitting iPhoto...

Hi,
Sometimes when I quit iPhoto, a message pops up and says that iPhoto is saving critical information before quitting,
I haven't noticed any issue with iPhoto yet, maybe it's normal, I'm just worried that something could happen...

That is normal - iPhoto backup up critical database information to assist in correct database problems if they occur - just let it do the backup - usually the first one is fairly long (depending on the size of your library) and after that they typically are very quick
I recommend that you do not defer them but let them run as needed for your protection
