I know there are a billion threads about iphoto 08 being slow, but it seems to be isolated cases and I cant find one that resembles mine. I have had my iMac for about a year and iphoto has never been fast. I just didnt use it. I recently purchased a very nice camera and in the need of a decent photo organizer and would love to use iPhoto because it is otherwise a nice program. The problem is mostly on starting iPhoto. The library is currently only 1 album because I have been trying to diagnose the problem. The album has about 75 pics in it. I have an intel imac with 4gb of ram. Nothing else opens slowly, not even photoshop. I have tried reinstalling from the cd and its still incredibly slow to open. Any thoughts would be great.
For now I am just hiding and unhiding as needed but that isnt a great option...
