After restoring iPhoto library, iPhoto does not recognize library
OS 10.8.3
iMac 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5
iPhoto '11 ver 9.4.3
I had my iPhoto library on an external hard dirve that crashed. I replaced the hard drive and restored the iPhoto Library from Time Machine (went into time machine, selected the last back-up, and selected restore). When I opened iPhoto, it asked me to select a library. I go to the hard drive and the iPhoto Library is there, but in light gray so I can not select it. In the "Get Info", it list is as a package and says to open it with Terminal. I tried to change it to open with iPhoto, but get the error message, "iPhoto is unable to open this library." I click Rebuild, iPhoto thinks for a few mooments and then "quits unexpectedly".
In finder, when I click on "Show Package COntents", all of the photos, details, etc... are there.
Any suggestions on how to get iPhoto to allow me to actually select the library?
Thanks,
Adam
