Q: Iphoto hangs after upgrading to Yosemite and latest iPhoto version

It tells me the library needs upgrading, and starts to search the library. The progress bar suggests something is happening then hangs after about 99% completion. I have had to force close twice after several hours stuck at that point and then start the whole process from scratch when I restart.

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

    I'm just adding this as an extension to my earlier comment

     

    My wife is an artist and it is her photo library of subject matter I am trying to rebuild - she used to specify the size of the image that got printed when she printed from iPhoto i.e If printing on US Letter size how many inches by how many inches the actual print was (makes it easier when scaling to a 60 X 60 canvass) She can't do that anymore  with the switching between iPhoto, IPLM, and Preview.

     

    Needless to say LOTS of unhappiness all round - this isn't what Apple is supposedly all about

    Well that tells you that you haven't managed to repair iPhoto.

     

    What exactly did you do with Library Manager?

    Followed the instructions.

     

    It created the preview of the new library and asked if I wanted to rebuild it, to which I clicked "rebuild"

     

    Once rebuilt I opened it in iPhoto to view, edit, and print
