I have a MacBookPro (2009) 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM 1067MHz DDR3, 250 GB HD.

When I open iphoto everything is fine and switching between photos is fine from one thumb to another. I have 3000 pics or so. However, I edit them, enhance them, retouch them so that "ok" photos become better. Anyway, after editing a photo and then switching to the next one (the next thumb) the computer freezes and the rainbow colored ball appears and this takes several seconds and sometimes up to a minute or so. I often have to do a force quit. It used to do this only sometimes and now it does it all the time. What do I do???
 
If iPhoto is open, quit it.

Hold down the Option and Command keys while you open iPhoto (click the iPhoto icon in the Dock).

From here you can rebuild your Photo Library, this may help with your problems.
 
You might also want to go into preferences on hd and trash the "iPhoto.plist" a new one will be created automatically.
