Iphoto crashes when trying to order prints

I've been trying to order prints from my brand new imac through photo and every time the program crashes when it says it's uploading..As far as i am concerned it's not uploading. The bar doesn't even show up indicating its progress. I've left it for hours and nothing. Finally, i transferred the photos to my macbook pro and the order processes just fine. Any ideas what the problem is on my imac and how to fix it? Both computers have the newest OS and iphoto.

iPhoto '11, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)

I had a client with the same problem today. A call to Apple Support confirmed my suspicions. The problem is the servers are overwhelmed and can't handle the volume. So the graphic of the cute little piece of paper sticking out of the cute little envelope just stays on the screen and iPhoto hangs.


Hello, Apple. This is a HUGE bug. iPhoto is not fault tolerant and just hangs. The only way out is to force quit.


So to all who are suffering this issue, don't bother trying to fix it on your end. The problem is on the server side.
