Try this: launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and try to create a new, test library. If you can import some photos and open and close it to see if the same problem persists. If you can create a new library and run it without crashing then your current library is damaged.


If that is the case make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:


Fix #1


Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.

Select the options identified in the screenshot.


Fix #2


Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library


  • Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
  • Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
  • Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
  • In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
  • Click on the Create button.

  • Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

    It sounds as if iPhoto needs to be reinstalled.


    To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name with either a .PKG or .BOM extension that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder and from the /var/db/receipts/ folder,

    Then install iPhoto from the disk it came on originally and apply all applicable updaters.

    I reinstalled my OSX, Iphoto, downloaded all updates...


    It worked... 2 times...


    After 2 uploads, the same problem occured. No crash report, just Iphoto stopping without notice.


    I'm seriously getting upset, bought a new camera some days after the first problem, and i can not process my pictures as my Iphoto is not operatonal...


    I REALLY NEED HELP !!!
