I tried every options suggested, this message keeps showing. Anyway to restore it?
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)
Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window. Be sure to follow the circled recommendation in the screenshot.
2 - apply Option #4, Rebuild Database.
I tried option 4 Rebuild Database , it crashed within 1 min
Tried option 3 Repair Database , this show up
and my Time machine is OFF , wait one hour nothing happen so I cancel
then I tried option 2 Rebuild Thumbnail, This show up
then I tried option 1 Repair Permissions, this show
and it doesn't solve anything , Please advise
Download iPhoto Library Managerand use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
This actually solved the problem
Thank you sir
My 10 years collections of Photo is safe, I am so grateful
Be sure to keep a current backup of the library from here on out.
I moved my iPhoto library to Ext.HD,after update it won't open
