indyz 1 #10 April 17, 2005 iTunes bogging down with large libraries is a well-known problem. This article has a possible solutions, but it might not be appropriate for your situation. YMMV. Edit to add: Apparently iPhoto 4 addresses some performance problems. You might consider upgrading. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murrays 0 #11 April 17, 2005 Quote Mac OS X Version 10.3.8 Machine Model: Power Mac G4 (AGP graphics) Boot ROM Version: 3.1.3f1 iPhoto: Version: 2.0.1 iPhoto 2.0.1, ©2002-2004 Apple Computer, Inc. I strongly suggest you upgrade to iLife 05 which has iPhoto5 included in it. It is much, much, much faster. It also has some pretty decent abilities for improving photos and many other things. Edited to Add: Go to versiontracker.com and do a search for iPhoto Buddy. It is a little freeware program that allows you to set up multiple iPhoto libraries and choose which one you want . This program was very helpful to me before iPhoto 4 came out and relieved the slowness of previous versions when you got a few hundred photos in your library.-- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mcrocker 0 #19 April 18, 2005 Try 'The GIMP' which is more like Photoshop than iPhoto but it is extremely powerful and free http://www.gimp.org/macintosh/ Or, just buy a faster Mac [url]http://www.apple.com/powermac/[url] Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have had PC's.. and actually chopchop and I just got a PC laptop late last year.. and the computer got infested with viruses and spam wear... so I guess.. yeah... you are right... as long as you never go on the internet with your computer... you might be safe with a PC... ... well... ummm.. thanks, but no thanks.. ...

RoysPlayThing 0 #22 April 18, 2005 Quote Stick your pc's where the sun dont shine Yep... the "sun don't shine"... It don't shine, not one bit... 'cause it's too busy trying to free itself from the spamware and viruses the PC collects each day... .. don't get me wrong .... I used to be a hard-ass PC user... until I witnessed full hand that PC's are the main target for the spamwear and viruses out there at this time... of course the hackers and bullshit asshole virus people will catch on, if everyone starts to use the mac..and then they are the majority.. then I don't know what we will do!! .. .. for now... the mac is better protected (through my thorough experience.. against bad things if you go online) _______________________________________________ My mind is like a parachute...it functions only when open.

benforde 0 #23 April 18, 2005 Hi, To catalog large amount of photos and files, I recommend Tri-CATALOG. I have been using it for a few years along with quite a few professional photographers I work with, we are all quite happy with it. It doesn't look super cool, or cost a large amount of cash, but it does the job of cataloging extra large amounts of photos in the minimum amount of space. Including any kind of un-mounted volumes. http://www.tri-edre.com/english/tricatalog.html Benjamin Forde / Fordesign // Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
