OS X :: MBP Completely Frozen - While Working On Iphoto?

Dec 15, 2008

While working in iPhoto I think Spotlight began to index my Backup Drive. My MBP became slow and eventually unresponsive. The mouse became choppy then disappeared and the process being done in iPhone froze up. Everything froze and nothing responded. I have never had anything happen like this before. What just happened? Low memory issue, some GUI error? A force restart, after waiting several minutes for something to click, brought everything back to normal.

I have had a new 24" 2.66ghz iMac for 12 days and started using a wireless mouse and keyboard 5 days ago. Everything's been great until today where the system has completely froze up twice resulting in doing a hard switch off. Both when using Safari 4 which i installed when first purchased. My question is how can i find out what causes the freeze?

OS X :: Mac Sometimes Completely Freezes - While Using Iphoto?

May 25, 2010

This is an issue I've come across with Macs the last few years & it's only taken me until now to raise any question as to why. It's not specific to Snow Leopard.

Sometime after using my Mac for a while it will just completely freeze up without any explanation why. The CPU is below 50% and still has around 100mb free memory. Eventually if I leave my machine long enough it will get to the state where I can quit a few apps, but it still be awfully slow until I restart the computer.

I admit that I very rarely shut my computer down, most of the time just sleep repeatedly for as long as 2/3 weeks... This isn't a specific issue to the machine, I've experienced this on my old iBook, iMac & now MacBook Pro.

Software :: Iphoto Is Not Completely Loading?

Jan 6, 2010

My iphoto will not open it just sits there and acts like it is about to load by bouncing on the dock. I get no message saying it can't open it will eventually just stop acting like it's going to load. Now the main photo icon for iphoto has eve changed it looks like a blank piece of paper with a pencil and pen at the bottom of it, and it used to be that signature iphoto sunset.

OS X :: Leopard Glitch - Dockbar Frozen And Hotkeys Stop Working

Nov 13, 2008

I get this once every couple of weeks while performing basic tasks, normally when I'm in a web browser, but the dockbar will freeze, I can't click it or anything, and my hotkeys to switch between programs stop working. I can use all the hotkeys within an app but this is the weirdest thing I've ever seen. Anyone else been experiencing this problem?

MacBook Pro :: System Not Shut Down Completely Now Not Working

Aug 29, 2010

I believe that I shut down my macbook but was mistaken and it did not shut down completely. The next day I opened it up and the screen wouldn't turn on like it usually does after simply being closed without powering down. I wasn't around to use it till a day later, being today, and I thought it was just a low battery problem. Now the battery is fully charged and yet it is still in the same state.

There is one light on but it is not bright like it is when sleep mode is not taking place. Also, it sounds like its running; I can hear the fan running but both the keyboard and screen are refusing to turn on. I've gone on the apple support page and have attempted what they suggest, but it didn't work. I don't use any plug in devices like a mouse, the only things I plug in are the battery charger and my IPod.

Applications :: Firefox Stopped Working Completely?

Aa above, Firefox has stopped loading pages. Any pages.

All I get is a white box with 'Search Bookmarks & History' in the search box. (see pic)

I deleted everything FF related from my drive, as well as the app & started from scratch. Downloaded a fresh version from their website, installed, and still nothing. Tried the obvious & rebooted - nothing.

MacBook :: White - Odd Occasions Bottom Row Of Keys Completely Stop Working (potential Software)

Nov 7, 2010

Before I go into detail I have a Late 2008 Macbook White (Upgraded to 4GB RAM, 320GB HDD) so I would have had it two years this Christmas (2010) Over the last few months, on odd occasions the bottom row of keys completely stop working (by bottom row of keys I mean: Z X C V B N M < > ? and then fn ctrl alt and CMD on the row below. The space bar and right CMD work perfectly as does every other key on the keyboard.

Now this is where it gets really weird. I always thought this was a hardware issue (Loose ribbon connection etc, I just don't have the hours in the day to sit down and take it apart) until my friend gave me his old aluminium apple wireless bluetooth keyboard (the laptop sized one). The bottom row of my keyboard broke again whilst visiting him so we set up this aluminium keyboard of mine................

IMac :: IPhoto Is Not Working - How To Rotate

Mar 1, 2010

When I upload pictures, the thumbnails won't show the picture, just the dotted line outline for all thumbnails.

Also, when I rotate a picture, it won't hold the rotation. After I have rotated it, I go over to iMovie to put the picture in it's spot, and it generates back to it's original direction before I rotated it.

Jun 19, 2012

Iphoto is not working.  When I open it, it says it is upgrading, but only goes to 99% on step five. Do you know how i can fix this and save my photos?  It also doesn't let me click into anything on that window, not even at the bar at the top of the screen, so i have to go into another window and force quit it.  Then it does the same thing over again.  I tried restarting my computer and shutting it down, but it did not work.

Software :: IPhoto Stopped Working Still Not Responding

May 20, 2010

My iphoto stopped working a little while ago, it wouldn't open. I would press the icon and it would jump, but nothing would happen. So I tried copying one from someone elses mac, same thing. it is there, all my photos are there but it will not open. So I found my discs and I reinstalled the programs, all the other ilife programs were and are still fine after the reinstall, but then again iphoto is not working. Just jumps when I click it and does not respond. I found a thread on here about a similar problem, so I followed the instructions and repaired the disc and then went to look for com.apple.iphoto.plist to trash it and its not there. I really am at a loss I don't know what to do short of reinstalling my entire operating system.

Applications :: Places In IPhoto Not Working - Recognize Only Few Pictures

Oct 31, 2010

My new upgrade to iPhoto '11 seems to be working almost perfectly. It doesn't do the greatest job of auto-locating people to names in Faces, which is a bit of a disappointment, but I chalk it up to limitations in the facial recognition software, not a bug with iPhoto '11.

The biggest fail is that Places seems to be working NOT at all. I have pictures taken in a few places around the globe, and it only seems to recognize one of my hundreds of Northern California photos and only two of my dozens of photos from Hawaii. It doesn't recognize ANY of the pics I took in Europe or the thousands taken in my home region.

Software :: IPHOTO Stopped Working - Possible To Reinstall From My DVD Disks?

Jun 24, 2008

iPHOTO has stopped functioning. My system is 10.4.11. About a year ago, I would attempt to launch it, and I'd get a "malfunction" message - frankly, I can't even tell you what it said now - and the program would just "not load.", I tried to reinstall from my DVD disks and I relaunched. Still the same problem. Any idea as to how I can get iPHOTO back? It works on my G4 iBook and MacBook. Any way to copy and paste? :-) And, if not, is there anyway to get the photos out of the iPHOTO library and get them to where they would be available in iMOVIE or other programs? (When you use iMOVIE, if you want to add a photo, the only library that comes up is iPHOTO. So, I am trying to figure out how to add photos into the available dropdown for iMOVIE since I can't add them through iPHOTO since iPHOTO doesn't work. Make sense?

Applications :: Iweb-iphoto Interface Suddenly Stopped Working (can't Add Photos)

Nov 22, 2009

for about a year i've been using iweb to create a simple web page, which includes photo album pages, each with several albums that were put there simply by dragging and dropping an "event" from iphoto via the media browser. about a week ago, i tried to add some new photos and iweb won't take them. when i drag an event from the media browser to the albums page i want to add it to, i see a lightened image of the thumbnail, the green circle with the "+" sign, and the red icon with the number of images, but when i let go of the mouse button, the image bounces back to the media browser and nothing gets added to the web page. i've tried creating new, blank pages and adding them there, all with the same result.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Can't Access IPhoto Library, IPhoto Apparently Automatically Upgraded To V 9.3

Jun 28, 2012

I suddenly cannot access the several thousand photos in my iPhoto Library. I believe my computer must have automatically downloaded and upgraded the version I previously had. Now I get an error message that reads: The photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto. Your photo library will not be readable by previous versions of iPhoto after the upgrade. The upgrade process for very large libraries may take an hour or more to complete. I still need my images able to be read by previous versions since I go back and forth editing between older desktops. Is there a way to access the photo library without okaying the upgrade? If I reinstall an older version of iPhoto, will I lose the existing library of photos?

Info:
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4), iPhoto V 9.3
