Albums are a list of images you want shown together, Smart Albums are a list of answers to a search, Folders are lists of Albums and so on.

Everything else in iPhoto is a list of one form or another. This an be viewed either as Events or with Photos view. Id like to thank iPhoto Buddy for creating such a simple to use and effective program which has all I need. The only item in iPhoto that actually contains Photos is the Library. Loading each library now takes an age and reports of Photo have been very mixed. 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.īecause 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 worked fine and fast on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 but it is very slow since the computer repair people upgraded the OS to 10.9.4. 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. This will create an entirely new library. In later versions it's under the Library menu.) (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. With iPhoto 11 you can touch up photos, create slideshows, organize photos. New card and calendar themes have been added. iPhoto 11 is the latest version of Apple's popular photo manipulation and sharing app. Comments can now be added to photos after publishing them to Facebook. Already saved or imported videos to iPhoto and want to export these video files to iMovie for further editing, or transfer movies from iPhoto to other devices for sharing Here’s an easy way to. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.ĭownload iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. Adds support for Shared Photo Streams on OS X Mountain Lion. Other things worth trying:īack Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto.
