Q: No faces shown under "faces"

Hello!

 

I'm using iPhoto 9.3.2 under OS 10.7.4 and ecperience the following problem:

 

When I click on "faces" on the left side iPhoto used to show me little polaroid-like pictures of faces of people I marked in my pictures.

 

No (I unfortunately don't recall after which update that happended) I just get the polaroid-like frames with a black inside.

When I pick one and select "photos" instead of "faces" iPhoto shows me all the pictures I tagged. But if I want to see just the pictures I have the same effevt as in the overwie - all black.

 

Can anybody gelp me with that?

 

Thanks!

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012), Mac OS X (10.7.4)

    Try holding down the command and option key while opening iPhoto.  A "Photo library first aid" window should pop up, select "Repair Database" and then click done.  This worked for me good luck, I hope it works for you too.

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions, if needed rebuild thumbnails and and if necessary rebuild your database
