Question Gday Jeff,
Mate i have a problem re iphoto app.
Everytime i try to open it it quits unexpectedly while trying to load the
photos. How can i fix this as i need to get into iphoto for work.

Thanks mate

Answer Roscoe,
Hope you're well.
It sounds like the iphoto database might be corrupted (or possibly the preferences.)
From your user folder/Library/Preferences move com.apple.iPhoto.plist to the desktop (this will cause iphoto to build a new preference list, but we'll keep the original just in case.)
Second, hold down Shift + option on startup of iphoto, which will cause it to rebuild the iphoto database.
