Homemade Berimbau

Hi Scotty,

I have a problem.  After Lion install and iCloud upgrade, for whatever reason, when I open iPhoto it fails and shuts down.  I can't open it all.  I have turned the computer on and off several times and still the same issue.  What should I do?

Be sure you've run all updates first.  Be sure you've updated iPhoto via the App Store.  Then restart.  If that doesn’t solve it then we may want to toss out the library plist file. To accomplish that, while in the finder, go to “Go” menu item in the menu bar and while it’s selected, hold down the option key. You’ll now see “Library” and one of the options. Now select Library and you’ll be taken to the user’s library folder. Next find the preferences folder in that directory.

Now find the com.apple.iphoto.plist file and any other com.apple.iphoto preference list file near the same. Delete those 2-4 items then restart and see if iPhoto will open. Let me know if that helps.
