iPhoto not launching
I have a small problem with iPhoto under 10.2.8 - it doesn't launch. Now, if I create a separate user account, it will launch fine - my deduction from this is that the problem lies with my prefs files. The problem is that my data was restored after a full format of my HD. Could this have been the problem?
Thanks,

Yes, I did, but to no avail. I even tried deleting them, restarting the machine (which you shouldn't need to do) and launching iPhoto. I could only find one pref file "com.apple.iphoto.plist" if my memory serves me right...

If you hold down the OPTION-key while you are launching
iPhoto (vers. no?) does there appear a dialog, which prompts
you to either choose or create a new iPhoto library?
BTW, what size of you're iPhoto library are we talking about?
I have just over 1.3Gb of data in my iPhoto library.
Does that help at all?

I don't know iPhoto 1.1.1., since i started with
2. Right now i have no clue how to track down
your particular issue with iPhoto. I don't know
10.2.8 (Jaguar) either, so others, who are
familiar with this SW versions may help
you out.
You said, that once you had have to reformat your
HD. How did you back up your iPhoto library
back then?
