At a guess the problem is that it's slow upgrading. We can only guess as you don't tell us anything else.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Hi, I think I'm having the same problem.
Trying to upgrade iPhoto 9.3 on my MacBook
Running on OS X 10.7.4
The upgrade just hangs when it gets to 98% of Step 5 of 9
Was working just fine before this upgrade
I've left the upgrade running overnight and it doesnt seem to progress
It seems to be very busy doing nothing as it's using 90%+ of the processor
No error messages
Any suggestions would be ver welcome
Thanks
Hi, I've the same problem. I tried to upgrade iPhoto 9.3 but it stopped at 97% of Step 5 of 9.
Can you suggest me some way to downgrade to the original version?
Thanks.
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.
If that fails:
Restore from your back up, repair your Library and try again.
Mac OSX 10.7.4
IPhoto 9.3
Tried to load a picture from email to IPhoto (right click and clicked on send to Iphoto).
IPhoto sent a message that I needed to ugrade.
I clicked on upgrade
Has been uprading for nearly 24 hours
No feedback from IPhoto except twirlling ring.
IPhoto worked fine before.
Have tried nothing to resolve the issue except ask for guidance here.
Thank you. I rebuilded the library. It seems to be ok...
I also rebuilt the database and I am back to where I was before the upgrade command. Still don't know what was going on and how to avoid it in the future. Thanks for the help!
Worked a treat, cheers
