iPhoto 9.4.2 crashes on export or import

Are you importing from your camera or from a folder on your disk? Raw images?

when exactly does it crash? When you start to select photos to import, or do s soon as you use the import command?

Your crash report say "crashed thread 19" in the lo. It might help, to see the crashed tread part for thread 19 too.

Regards

Léonie

Having exactly the same issue here.

Have tried all the fixes quoted such as fixing permissions, launching iPhoto with Option&Control and attempting to fix things in order.. downloading iPhoto Library Manager and rebuilding, reinstalling iPhoto etc.

Nothing works.

thank's for your help

greetings from france

Gerard,

your crash is completely different. As far as I can see, iPhoto crashes, when it is accessing AVCHD videos. Have you videos on your card? You better start a separate thred, so the video experts can see it.

Léonie

Jim, can you import any photos at all? What happens, if you import older image files again, that you previously imported successfully? I am just trying to figure out, if there is something wrong with your new image files, or if iPhoto is corrupted.

The error message in the crash log:

Application Specific Information:

*** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSUnknownKeyException', reason: '[<__NSDictionaryM 0x86dcd840> valueForUndefinedKey:]: this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key DLP(R).'

is raised, after iPhoto tries to access properties of an image file (to assign a color sync profile) and it crashes, because it cannot find the necessary data in its dictionaries. Either the jpegs have a problem or iPhoto. The framework, that is crashing is part of the iPhoto application. If you cannot even open older photos, I'd reinstall iPhoto.

When did the crashes start? DId you install something else lately? Any plug-ins, helper applications? Did you run any cleaner applications, that empty caches or something?

I have looked through the older discussions, and all threads that I found with exactly the same type of crash report have not been marked as solved.

thank's for your quick answer. On the card of the photo app there is no mov, only .jpeg file.

and when I import them " by hand" on the desktop and after in iphoto, no problem,

The crash is when the app photo is connected ( I use this Sony since two years without problem

to import, it was a plesure, now it is a problem !!! )

thank's for help or idea

excuse my english

When I try to import a photo, the system crashes.

I tried logging in to a new user account and it crashes there too.

When you are testing from a different user account, did you test with a new iPhoto Library or with your current iPhoto Library? If you can import successfully into a new iPhoto Library, I'd try to repair/rebuild your current iPhoto Library first:

• Back up your iPhoto library,
• Depress both the keys option/alt⌥ and command⌘ firmly at the same time and hold them down, while you launch iPhoto by double clicking. Select "Rebuild database" from the panel to rebuild your iPhoto library

But if you cannot even import into a new library, and since iPhoto also crashes for a new user account. go ahead and reinstall iPhoto.

Re: iPhoto '11 crashes on startup

Yes, you need your disks.

Have you looked at your Mac OS install disks? On some later versions was a second CD with bundled iLife applications. If there are, then use those to reinstall the bundled applications only - select custom install and check only the apps you need to reinstall.

I tried a reinstall - same issue afterwards. I hope it works for you!

Ray, do you have exactly the same system version, iPhoto version, and error message in the crash log as Jim? If yes, how did you install iPhoto? Is it the recent AppStore version, or an update from the iLife instlla CDs?

Did you install anything else, after you installed Mt. Lion and upgraded iPhoto, that might have added incompatible frameworks? Little helpers, like utilities to open the coorect application, after connecting a camera or something, plug-ins, device drivers?

Regards

Léonie

Hi Léonie,

I am running Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and iPhoto 9.4.2. I reinstalled iPhoto from the iLife disk - that didn't work - so I even downloaded the latest version from the app store (spent 15 bucks) - and that didn't work either.

I last successfully launched iPhoto about a week or so ago and had no problem at all. I am pretty certain that I did not install any additional software since.

Cheers.
