iphoto help please peeps

[matthew80]

I have a iBook G4 and im new to mac. I've put about 350 pictures onto iphoto whilst travelling and now some of the pictures that are at the top the page when clicked onto will not open into the larger window below. It's quite random in the sense that it's not the same roll but different one's. Really need to sort it out so that i can take them all off to make space as its taking up alot of momory.
Please help as i've been trying for months to sort it out oh and the girlfriend will go nut's if i lose any. If you need certain info please let me know what it is and i'll reply asap.
Many Thanks

Are you trying to delete these pictures or are you trying to edit them? What happens when you double click on the photos that don't work? Do you get any feedback or does it just not change to Edit mode?

when the pictures from the library are in a thumb nail form at the top of the screen i click onto them and they open as a larger picture but some of them dont open as a larger picture. It's as if the computer is trying to load it up but it just does not happen. The pictures will delete but editing is a no go. No feedback happens and no you can't edit them apart from changing the pictures info like date and time.

Did you rename some of the files in Finder? If so, then this Apple Support Discussion may help.

In that case, I'd keep an eye on this thread. It appears that people are having mixed results with some of the techniques. Hopefully one of them will work for you though.
