IPhoto library is locked and 'force quit' or restarting solves the problem. Any ideas?

iPhoto has error message: library is locked. clicking on repair or force quit or restart has not resolved. How can I get the app to restart?

Can you give us the exact error message? Generally, the most common one said something on a disclock. Is your library on an external? If so, what format is it?

Also, what version of iPhoto?

Assuming that is not on an external, try to download iPhoto Library Manager and use the rebuild feature. (In early versions of the Library Manager, this is the file-> control Rebuild. In versions later it is under the menu library.)

This will create a completely new library. It will then copy (or try) your photos and all associated metadata and versions to this library and as close as possible to what you had in the damaged library fix it. It does this based on the information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but it means that things not shared won't be there, so no slide shows, books or calendars, for example - but it should recover all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places.

Because this process creates a completely new library and does not change your old, it is non-destructive, and if you are not satisfied with the result, you can simply go back to your old.

  • Wil Windows 7 does not start and is not able to solve the problem

    Hello

    I tried several things at this stage. I have a Toshiba that windows is not able to solve the problem on its own when starting. InsydeH20 BIOS, I have ensured that the system must start using the HARD disc as shown.

    When the problem started he said that the problem could have been caused due to a media device may have been connected to the computer and that Windows could not fix the problem automatically. I was then able to enter the menu to try to do a system restore; It did not work. From that moment, I opened windows to use the F8 key and was able to start using the corrupted files, but now after a update tried to install all I get is a black screen with a white line of underscore flashing in the top left of my screen.

    I downloaded an ISO file for Windows 7 from my other laptop and was able to boot from there to get to the point where I would be able to try a system restore, use the prompt, etc., but even once it is not solved the problem.
    At some point, the screen showed that there is a cable that is not connected or something, I don't not entered all of this, but I do not know how to check this part of it. Could someone please give me direction from here to what I can do?

    Thank you

    > However now after a tried update install all I get is a black screen with a white flashing line of underscores in the upper left corner of my screen.

    This is a typical symptom for a faulty HARD drive.
    I had the same cursor blinking in the upper left corner and finally I could solve this problem using the new HARD disk.

    > At some point, the screen showed that there is a cable that is not connected or something.
    Maybe you mean the error: pxe/e61: mediatest failure, check the cable of
    This happens if the portable computer is trying to boot from LAN. This happens because the OS on the HARD drive is not bootable, and this happens especially if the HARD drive is malfunctioning

    In my opinion, you need to change the HARD drive.
    I think this should solve the problem.

  • Computer freezing and startup repair does not solve the problem.

    fix my computer when windows start dump then launch startup, but does not solve the problem. Can you help me solve the problem

    Hi Wwiese,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand from the description of the problem, the computer freezes in the commissioning on the Windows 7 computer.

    I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.

    1 were there any hardware or software changes made on the computer before this problem?

    2. are you able to boot into office?

    3. you receive an error message/code?

    I suggest you try these methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1

    Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) drives, etc...) Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

    If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue. Then download drivers software updated for this particular device.

    Method 2

    Try to start in last good known Configuration and see if you can start very well.

    Using the last good known Configuration

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/is-is/Windows7/using-last-known-good-configuration

    Method 3

    Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists, if the question does not persist then perform the clean boot and check if the problem resolves.

    Step 1

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed. Please click the below mentioned link.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Step 2

    Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow step 3 from the link to start the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    Method 4

    If the problem persists, I suggest you perform a startup repair and check if it makes a difference.

  • VISA series: setting State of DTR and RTS to "Unasserted" has solved the problem of communication RS232; Why?

    In recent days, I struggled to get a pair of linear actuators Zagarella to work with LabVIEW after upgrading a computer and LabVIEW. The Zabers communicate via the serial port (RS232), who has perfectly worked on the old (but deceased) XP computer with LV 8.6. With a Win7 PC with LV 2010SP1, this suddenly no longer works. To add to the puzzle, the native of the software provided by the manufacturer has worked correctly.

    Using the Microsoft/SysInternals PortMon software, I could read in the serial communication (highly recommended debugging tool, btw). There were some differences between the native software and my LV software, so I tried a lot of things in LV to try to resolve the problem.

    Ultimately, the change of the code which makes communication with the work of Zabers is shown in the image below. The part in the structure schema disable enabled correct serial with the Zabers; It breaks the deactivation of this code.

    Now my question is: I don't have any idea why this would fix it. If I understand correctly, this property node manually off the DTR and RTS lines on the serial cable; It is common for devices like this is sensitive to these channels? I've been reading a bit on RS-232 communication, but someone here has a simple explanation of what could happen?

    I thank very you much in advance!

    You want to open your iPhoto library in iPhoto or the new Photos.app?  and what version of Mac OS X and iPhoto you have installed on your Mac?

    If you have improved your Mac to Mac OS X 10.11,2, El Capitan, you can open your photo libraries or in News Photos for application mac or you can continue to use iPhoto, but only iPhoto 9.6.1 will work on El Capitan.

    Hello

    Control Panel - SOUNDS - Audio peripheral devices configuration-manager

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version on the tab of the driver in the device as a sound Manager often restoring drivers, then install
    the current version. Restart and check after each try, not uncommon to have to run the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more.
    Just make sure that the version you have installed appears in the tab of the driver.

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • I see observation all that I need is my back admin rights and it should solve the problem, but how?

    There is nothing wrong with my computer pyshcically what so ever. I was and still am VERY STRESSED! for many months reading turtorials endless on many issues, but the biggest--months of admin password accepted, but refused instant access, or the file specified cannot be found, or similar error. I have no rights, privileges, etc. the whole lot. I tried to change/admin access in command prompt, but I get error 5 or access denied, or I am not at the right level. I've seen tutorials on how to move errof 5, but as usual the people do not understand that I have not just admin what so ever. They all sit down and say to use admin to resolve this issue, when the tutorial is assumed to be on the way to get the admin! to solve the problem! A few days ago, I walked into the safe directory services mode with my MIRICAL admin account! I don't know what I got RIGHT on the admin account that is functioning normally, fiddling around with it in Control Panel administrative tools to make it work. I am amazed! HOWEVER! Satan is back! Operating system Windows don't would not install error and AVG has got in the way. I couldn't uninstall AVG so I got riped off and removed as many files as I could. But suddnely I decided to change my admin password and now it does not accept the passwords, all passwords I have in my head and that you know are right that I memorized for many years. I had a password reset OF what USB made from my Windows, but it always says error when you try to change the admin password! and it is this that just blocked it, by the look of it. now I am locked out of this time, as well as access deined. I have no USB keys and had to format the reset to try one of your user bypassess, but as usual USB or DVD cannot be read on startup. I tried to download and bypasses creating a USB DVD but they will not play to restart, regardless of how I set the bios to read the disc, it may not be ready. I must run going in the security mode, when I could. Disturbances on reboot Windows freezes and so the installation screen of win 7 Home premium. I was able to run the windows installation operating system, directory services safe mode, but it collapsed when AVG got in the way. Now, I can not run it again. I can't run anything. I have upgraded to win 7 ultimate with a 26 keys that said they were rejected, but when I restarted I got win 7 ultimate. That has now expired, I don't know if the upgrade to win 7 ultimate has nothing to do with the problem. Didn't seem to when I got mirical admin access. Admin is demmanded through my computer everything including the security for what modes either editable or executable. INCLUDING ADMIN ITSELF. People JUST don't GET THAT! I can't edit or create a new admin account. You need admin to edit or create admin or standard. In all, no one seems to understand the heart of the problem. I've been clost to do when I got access miraculous admin a few days ago. but now I'm back to square one. You have any ideas how to find my password to my admin and all the rights privileges etc., so can format I hope this machine to get rid of the Trojan horse and other infections and pirate * of *!

    You must download the Windows 7 ISO on another computer, create installable media of him, and then start your own computer from it. If you do this, you will NOT have an administrator account.

    The option to boot from one drive other than drive C is often shown on the screen of boot of the computer manufacturer, but not always.
