Why does my IPhoto 09 not start immediately in Lion?

Whenever I load Iphoto09 , it goes through a 'thinking' time of about three to four minutes before it becomes useable. The program looks ready to use but when I move my mouse over it, the program is non reactive (rainbow circle). In Snow Leopard, the program was useable immediately upon start. Anyone with the same experience?

It's possible your iPhoto library has become corrupted and needs to be repaired. To get instructions on how to do this please visit:

  • Why does plugin-container.exe not start up with Firefox 3.6.15 anymore?

    I have Firefox 3.6.15, Firefox 4.0 RC1 and Pale Moon 3.6.15 on my PC. Even though each .exe file is in a separate folder, if I start up say, Firefox 4.0 RC1 for awhile and then close it and start up Firefox 3.6.15 my settings are messed up and I have to fix some of them. I just noticed in Task Manager that plugin-container.exe does not start up with FF 3.6.15 and FF 4.0 RC1 and Pale Moon 3.6.15 anymore. I'm not sure what I did to cause this. I even went into Mozilla's folder and tried to start up plugin-container manually, but it does not start up. I'm at a loss, do I have to do a clean install of three browsers to fix this?

    It is caused by Firefox asking plugins like Flash to remove their cookies and other locally stored data.

  • Why does Satellite Pro A300 not start when the power button is pressed?

    Suddenly my new Satellite Pro A300 will not start correctly when the power button is pressed. The situation is this: When I press the power button the Toshiba opening picture (Leading Innovation) appears and disappers quickly. Then there is a black screen for about 30 seconds. Then there is a rectangular frame with the text Microsoft Corporation underneath. And nothing happens however long I wait.
    In order to get on with the starting proces I then shut down the computer by pressing down the power button until the computer stops. ("The hard way to shut down")
    Now I press the power button shortly to turn on the computer. Then the computer starts normally with the Toshiba opening picture and after a few seconds I am asked to open the computer in safe mode or in normal mode. I now choose to open in normal mode and the computer opens normally and is ready to work.
    What shall I do to get a normal start procedure?

    When notebook starts normally (after choosing normal mode) shut down your notebook properly using START > Shut down option. Next start should be normal.
    When the OS is switched down on irregular way you will be always asked how to start it again (safe or normal mode).
    The same happen on my Satellite A300.

  • Why does Premiere Elements 8 not start correctly?

    I have a problem with Premiere Elements 8, using PC, Windows 8.1. Starting the program I can start a new project and save it. After this the menue appears but the working area is grey. There is no option to use any point of the menue beside starting a new project but this doesn´t help. New start of the pc did not chance anything. I uninstalled the program and installed it again. The problem is still there. In the past I used the program without any problem. Mc Afee is new installed, this is the only chance beside updates of Windows, they are automatically installed. Can anybody help me?

    maria
    If you have not already, please consider...just in case message, you need not reply
    Before you make any decisions on the fate of Premiere Elements 8, please evaluate it as the 8.0.1 Update which can be obtained from Adobe using the following link
    Adobe - Premiere Elements : For Windows : Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0.1 update
    For reasons unknown to users, Adobe does not place a "8.0.1" in the description of the program once the 8.0.1 update is installed.
    I guess we get our OK immediately after installation with a update installed successfully message. And that is that.
    Two possible signs
    1. If the automatic Background Rendering in preferences was enabled before 8.0.1, it is disabled after 8.0.1.
    2. There is one file in the program files on the hard drive that, as I recall, may be new or renamed.
    For me, that update (plus shutting off the AutoAnalzyer feature in Elements Organizer) made the difference between usable versus
    unusable version 8 program.
    Best wishes

  • Why does my macbook pro not start up?

    Today I changed ram on my old macbook pro. 667hz DDR2 type from 2X1 TO 2X2.
    After i finished the installation my laptop has not worked properly. It currently runs 10.7.
    No startup sound, and the white light at the bottom flashes constantly in sequenses of three. Three quick flashes.
    What is wrong? Even when I re-inserted my old RAM the same problem occurred.
    Please help!

    MacBook Pro 3,1  15' 2,2 Core 2 Duo Late 2007.
    I used the same buss speed (667 mhz) and the same type DDR2. Same number of pins.
    I also checked what happened with 0 ram in slots, and then it started blinking constantly.
    So it must see the RAM but the RAM seems useless for some reason...

  • Why does my iPhoto app not open after upgrading to 10.8.2?

    I keep getting a popup that says the application is busy or the files are unreadable. When I hold down the option and command keys while opening, I get a popup that asks me to check what I want to repair, but when I check on one, the other popup appears again, the app is in use or the files are unreadable. I can drag photos from my pictures file to the app, but it won't receive them because, "the app is in use or the files are unreadable. What can I do to make iPhoto functional?

    Same with my 2011 Imac -- i was actually trying to use ethernet connection to  update to 10.8.2 to see if i that gets rid of the wifi drop outs @!!   Hillarious if it wasnt so frekin frustrating,  I am renting a wireless 4g dongle for the month as its the only internet access my Imac will handle until Apple gives us our connectivity back --- i heard they really don't pay attention to these forums, so may be longer than a month !

  • Why does Photoshop elements 9 not start once I downloaded Wacom drivers?

    I use Photoshop Elements 9, it is fully updated.
    I recently switched from a bamboo tablet to an intuos. Previously, my bamboo worked perfectly. Elements could detect pen pressure and worked fine. Now, elements (the editor, not the organizer) has stopped booting.
    However, I recently got an intuos and once I downloaded the drivers, Photoshop would stop booting. For example:
    I try to open up a photoshop file, photoshop would stop responding.
    I open up the welcome screen and click on edit, the edit button shows that loading sign for awhile before returning back to the normal edit button. After that, nothing happens and the editor doesn't open.
    I try to open the editor directly, it stops responding.
    There were however less than ideal ways I could force elements to boot. I could open up Wacom Tablet Properties, and delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements preference over there. When I do that, photoshop boots instantly even if it was in the middle of not responding. Even when I try to boot with the welcome screen and the edit button just fades, as soon as I delete the preference, elements boots. Even if I was waiting for fifteen or twenty minutes before deleting the preference, elements would boot. Another way I can get photoshop to open is using the wacom tablet preference file utility to delete the preference.
    However, when this happens, pen pressure doesn't work and the cursor is really laggy. The disc keeps appearing over the cursor.
    Other stuff I've tried:
    Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers. I've tried using the disc the tablet came with. I've also tried the installing the driver from the website.
    I'm not sure about resetting the photoshop elements preferences. I've tried clicking ctrl+shift+alt and clicking to open photoshop but it just opens up the properties window. (But isn't what I did with wacom tablet preference utilities achieving the same thing?)
    I greatly appreciate any advice you could give me! Like if this is even the proper place to ask?

    Specifically, this:

    But it is also very important to delete any existing preferences after a major OS X upgrade. For PSE 6 that would be:
    com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 paths
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 settings
    They're in your username>library>preferences. Here's how to find it in 10.9:

    Why does my iPhoto keep quitting while i'm trying to create a calendar

    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.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Why does my iPhoto quit unexpectedly when transferring pics to 32gb memory stick

    why does my iphoto quit unexpectedly when transferring pics to a 32gb memory stick at the same place each time?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:

    ☞ 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.

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
    DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)

  • Why does my edit button not show in Address Book?

    I have installed Lion on my laptop; however, I am not able to edit any Address Book entries. After doing some research, I have learned that I am missing the "Edit Button" that is supposed to appear on a contact that will enable editing.  My Edit button does not appear - I have only "Add Contact" and "Share" buttons.  Why does my edit button not appear?
    I have not noticed any other issues with Lion.
    Thanks!

    Try this:
    Select "Go" from the finder whilst holding down the Alt key and "Library will drop down in the list.
    Library/preferences/ and delete this :  com.apple.AddressBook.plist
    re-start your comp and it should work.
    This . plist will re-create itself when re resart all nice and clean and fresh.
    Should work, it does for most things.
    Good Luck

    Look, you can build an HD DVD with an SD movie, just as you can build an SD DVD with an HD movie. This is not a bug, it is most likely user error. Apple will not be addressing it.
    Just start over, and ensure you are building an SD DVD by bringing up the inspector for the disc (click on the background in the Graphical tab).
    Make sure SD DVD is selected:
    (If you do the same thing on your ill fated project, you'll see that HD DVD is selected)
    Build your DVD and you'll be fine.
    Patrick
    P.S. You will need to google HD DVD and Blu-Ray if you want to understand the difference between the formats. The reason that DVDSP included HD DVD was that its format was similar to SD DVD's. Blu-Ray is something else entirely.
