Hi guys,

Having a major problem with what I thought would be a simple task. I've previously moved my own iPhoto library to an external hd with no problems, so I thought I would be able to do the same with my girlfriends. No such luck. After copying around 2GB of 34GB it states an error -36. I thought upgrading her to iLife 11 may solve the problem, but now when iPhoto needs to upgrade the library itself it crashes after a few minutes. Cleary there is a corrupted file somewhere in the library, but how on earth do I find it amongst 20,000 images? And that's just assuming only one file is corrupted.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance, hopefully someone can help! :confused:
