iTunes can't see my iPhoto Library

This evening I updated iPhoto to v11.4 and after the update it required my iPhoto library to be updated to work with the updated version of the software. After that was complete, iTunes could no longer see my iPhoto library, albums etc. It looks like I have an empty iPhoto in iTunes. All my other iLife and iWork software can see my iPhoto library, albums etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)

Not sure if you're having the same exact issue as I am but bottom line, after updating my iPhone 4 and my 3rd gen iPad to iOS 6 and doing the requisite updates on my macbook pro, my iPad will not show up in iTunes unless it's physically connected, even though the wireless sync option is selected and the only option in iTunes is to synch ALL photos, which results in an error 1140 and sync failure when selected. The option to sync selected albums is grayed out and below, no iPhoto albums show up. I think there's an issue with the iPhoto update or iOS 6. Not good!

Sorry I meant iPhoto 9.4

I have solved the problem - I downloaded a Free program called iPhoto Library Manager and it told me the issue was with my AlbumData.xml file. I found the error and fixed it using the help provided in the iPhoto Library Manager. Everything seems to be working except there are now some events that don't really exist and some of the albums have less pictures then I'm showing, but at least it is working!
