Corrupted iPhoto Library
I have
Model Name: iMac 10.5.8
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
I have a corrupted iPhoto Library file. When I try to open iPhoto it crashes. If I move the Library and start a new one, it works. In another account it will open and bring up photos from Nov. 2008 and before.
The problem began when I downloaded iMac upgrades in August. I have photos from June 2009 to now as I bought a new camera and the photos downloaded right into Pictures, not iPhoto. But I have lost all pictures from Dec. 2008 to the end of May 2009. Is there anyway to open a file and pull individual pictures out. There used to be a program in the old Mac days that would let you dig into files and take some out. (It had a Jack-in-the-Box for an icon). Are there any programs that would let me open the Library and take pics out?

Corrupted iPhoto File
iPhoto '08 7.1.5
The actual date of corruption was Sept. 14, 09 when I installed updates from Apple.
The Library Manager says the album data file for this library is malformed.
XML parser error:
Encountered unexpected character V on line 7249
Old-style plist parser error:
Malformed data byte group at line 1; invalid hex

Corrupted iPhoto File Opened
I dragged the file to the desktop. I was able to right click the file and pull out my pictures. Then trash the file. The problem has been solved.
