Can't rebuild the library because iPhoto is freezing before the dialog shows up
Hi all
I've got some problems with iPhoto since I formated and reinstalled Mac OS X 10.8.4. If I try to start iPhoto, it freezes each time with the beach ball animation and I can't do anything besides quit iPhoto. I tried different things to solve the issue:
- Uninstall iPhoto and download it again from the App Store
- Delete / Move the plist files within the Preferences and the Library itself
- Repair permissions of the harddisk
- Remove the iPhoto library and create a new one on startup
If I try CMD + Option while startup, the dialog for repairing / rebuilding the library don't show, instead the iPhoto window shows and the beach ball starts to animate and iPhoto is not longer responding.
Does anyone have an idea, what I could try further?
Thanks in advance,
Markus
