Hi all - I did a quick scan of the forum and didn't see one dealing strictly with iPhoto freezing; most posts were for multiple application failures. If I missed it - sorry!
Here is my situation: I'm running iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2 <402>). I'm running it on a MBP, OS X 10.5.7, 2.4 Ghz with about 35Gb of free space.
Every time I launch, it either a) tells me it found photos in an unfinished import and do I want to finish importing them or b) runs normally until I try to import any photos.
Both instances lead to the same result: it hangs and I have to force quit. Sometimes it gets all the way through the import and hangs when it appears to be finalizing the import, or other times it hangs during or just before the start of the import. So utterly annoying. iPhoto 08 never gave me this problem, and after I upgraded to 09, it worked fine for about the first month or two.
Anybody else know how to fix this or deal with this without having to reinstall the whole iLife suite? I'd like to not have to do that.
Thanks,
Dave
