iPhoto HELP PLEASE!!!

[Woody864]

I am new to this forum here so hopefully I have posted this in the right place. Ok, I have been reading numerous discussions on iPhoto problems. After trying everything suggested by other people, I am still stumped. By everything, I am referring to trying to rebuild iPhoto library, download iPhoto Library manager, re-install iPhoto (and made sure receipts were deleted before doing this), booting in safe mode, checking the color profiles since that looks to be an issue, and going through the whole Disk Utility stuff. I am by no means experienced in working with Apple since I am new to Apple products. Any help would be great by anyone. Below is a recent crash report and just a few lines. Thanks in advance!

Sounds to me like you have a corrupt photo in your Library.

To check this
Start iPhoto with the Option Key help down.
Create a New Library with a good name, like New Blank Library, so you can delete it later if needs be.

Does iPhoto still crash using this Library? Add some photos, quit and go back in? all good?

Hey thanks for the response. Yeah it was still crashing even when trying to rebuild or create a new library. I was able to fix iPhoto but had to do a reinstall by using the Command-R at start up. I posted a rather lengthy discussion on the Apple Support Communities page. And for anyone who is experiencing the same of similar issues to what I was going through with iPhoto, here is a link to the steps I took to fix the problem.
