Upgrading iPhoto database EPIC FAILURE
Since upgrading to Yosemite a few months ago I can't successfully upgrade my iPhoto database. It gets about 95% done and then goes no further. It does not fail but does not complete. I have let it go as long as 48 hours. I have tried this at least ten times. In the end I have force quit. How can I ever get iPhoto to open again?
Your db is corrupted.
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.

Iphoto stuck "upgrading iphoto database"
I upgraded to the new version of iphoto with Yosemite but can not get it to launch properly. It sits with the message "upgrading iphoto database" for seemingly ever. I've left it going overnight and still nothing. I've forced quit, restarted, erased and redownloaded iphoto, all with the same results. Any help or how to fix would be appreciated.

Upgrade iPhoto database taking forever, 12 hours and counting.the Apple tech staff migrated data from my old MacBoo to New McBk Pro. Then the Upgrading process was started and ran for 24 hours before I finally Force Quit. BTW, iPhoto didn't show up as Not Responding, but I figured there was some glitch and Force Quit. THen started up again and now 12 hours and counting. Am I missing something?

I recently upgraded to OSX 10.8 and also upgraded to iPhoto '11. When opening the new version of iPhoto, it prompts me to upgrade the iPhoto database. Right now (24 hours later) the blue stream has gone almost to the end of the line, has stalled, and the white spinny icon is still rotating, Should this take so long? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hello Larry,
Thank you for responding so quickly. I did what you suggested and the window instructed me to rebuild my library, then I was again prompted to update my database and the same thing is happening. I'm afraid I've lost my library. It's not even showing up in my hard drive.

While upgrading iphoto database, the program stops responding.
I updated my iPhoto, but when the progam opens it says it must upgrade the iphoto library. When I do this, it stops responding near the end of the upgrade.
Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed.

While upgrading iphoto database, iphoto stops responding.
Iphoto will not open, I have tried to restore it from time machine, I have tried to upgrade to '11 and it keeps shuting down, stops responding. I know my pictures are still there, I can see them in finder. Any ideas!
ThanksPost the Crash Log.
It's at Home / Library / Logs / Crash-Reporter / iphoto.crash.log
Double click on the file and it will open in the Console. Copy and Paste it in here. -
9.1 Update Requires Upgrading the iPhoto Database Again?
I had iPhoto 9.0.1 installed and running fine. When I updated to 9.01, it ran the "Upgrading iPhoto database". I just installed the 9.1 update, and it is "Upgrading iPhoto database" again (and much slower this time). Is everyone having this experience?
The other odd thing, is that on startup, the iPhoto 9.1 saw all the iPhoto library backups I have, and asked me which to use. That never happened before.
DavidThanks for your response TD, but this App, iPhoto 11 came already installed on my computer. I registered my computer, but you can't register a product without a serial number. I don't have the iPhoto 11 serial number because it came installed on my computer already. I tried re-installing iPhoto 9.1 after registering my computer and got the same error message. However, I did find out that I hae 90 days of complimentary phone support. So I will be giving Apple a call.

Upgraded to Yosemite. Upgraded iPhoto. iPhoto library needs upgrade. Stops responding.
I have a Mac Pro Early 2008 that I upgraded to Yosemite. iPhoto stops responding every time I try to upgrade the library. It hangs on the Upgrading iPhoto Database. I have an extensive library of photos and wonder if it is a memory issue. Anyone experienced this?
Here is the report that gets sent to Apple when I Force Quit....

1 -[__NSCFString appendFormat:] + 203 (CoreFoundation + 576283) [0x7fff88defb1bTry repair the other one.
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 upgrading to Yosemite (I don't have iPhoto anymore, only PHOTOS) my pictures will not import from my iPad or iPhone 5s or any picture from web, it shows "Database Error: failured to persist version". Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Sorry,
Yes, the error message is exactly like that ("Database error: failured to persist version")
No photos will import at all. I use USB to import from iPhone 5s or iPad 2.
About the difference? iPhoto and Photos . Are there two softwares?
I also will like to merge and/or synchronize all my photos I had saved to iCloud backups, Macbook Pro, iPhone 5s and iPad hard drives using iPhoto. It's call iPhoto library. At one point I turned off streaming.
Thanks again Larry HN. -
My computer is an iMac that was made in late 2009, and was purchased by me in 2010. It has a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. I have more than 800 GB of storage available. Last week I installed the Yosemite OS. I'm having trouble with the upgrading of iPhoto. When it says it's upgrading the database, it never finishes. I've started the process a few times, and the progress line always gets to the same place when it sits and spins for hours at a time without any more progress. I thought about putting some of my 10,000 + pictures on discs to see if that would help, but I can't open iPhoto to get at them. Would that help, anyway? My son thinks this computer is too old to accept all updates. The hard drive was replaced 2 years ago.
Thanks for any help.Option 1

Faces gone after upgrades to Mavericks and iPhoto database.
After upgrading to Mavericks from Mountain Lion, the iPhoto Database had to be upgraded by iPhoto to work with Mavericks. It went thru the process and afterwards many (but not all) of my Faces were gone. The photos are still there...and they're still tagged with the appropriate Faces name, but they will not show up in Faces. The only way I can get them to show up there is to delete the Faces names that are already on the photo and re-enter the Faces from scratch. But since there are at least 1500 photos that are affected, there's got to be a better way! I've done each of the following to no avail:
1) Repaired permissions.
2) Rebuilt Thumbnails.
3) Repaired the Database
4) Rebuilt the Database
5) Restored the Database from Time Machine to pre-Mavericks. The database had to be converted by iPhoto like before. And the results are the same - lots and lots of Faces missing - though everything else appears to be there. The only thing I can see is that it's the same set of years where the Faces are missing (it's something like all Faces from 1942-1970 are missing - but the ones before and after that are there).
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.Since you've tried all of the standard fixes there's only one left:
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 (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion, Mt. Lion or Mavericks delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
If no change try rebuilding the thumbnails again.

Can't find Events in the Leopard upgraded iphotos?
I just installed Leopard but I don't think it installed my iphoto properly. It still says I have version 6 when I click on about iphoto. Is this normal? I can't find Events either which is one of the new features on iphotos. Anyone else had this problem?
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Installing Leopard does not upgrade the iLife application becuase they are not part of a system upgrade disk. Therefore you still have the same iLife versions that you had with Tiger. You either have to purchase a iLife disk or a new computer to get iLife 08.
Happy Holidays
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 created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), 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. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar.

Upgrade iPhoto to open iPhoto library after installing iLife 6
I am a real computer novice and just installed iLife6, which I should not have done because now I have no access to my iPhoto library. It tells me I need to upgrade iPhoto to open the library so I selected "upgrade." Then it tells me there is a problem with some of the files and I need to go to Finder, click Get Info and be sure ownership & permissions are Read & Write in the iPhoto Library. I have tried that repeatedly but it tells me I don't have privileges for all I am trying to access. But I am an administrator on the computer, and every possible file I have opened is now Read & Write. But I continue to be stalled out and still cannot open iPhoto Library. I tried copying the iPhoto library to another computer with iLife 6 already installed, and it tells me some of the files in iPhoto can't be imported because they are in iPhoto Library. I am so confused, and now would like to just remove iLife6 from this computer to get back to my original iPhoto so I can access these Photos but I don't know how to do that either. Does anyone have any ideas at all that can help me please?
svbp:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Give this a try:download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. Launch iPhoto and try to update the library again.
Do you Twango?
