Hi Laura,

Thank you for your helpful suggestion. I upgraded to 0.11.6. I see the same behavior so far. Is there some way to know if there is anything happening in background?

Hi Farrukh,

My first suggestion is to upgrade your version of Shotwell and see if that resolves any issues you're having. You should be able to do this from the Update Manager.

Alternatively, you may also download the latest version of Shotwell from the Yorba PPA: https://launchpad.net/~yorba/+archive/ppa <https://launchpad.net/%7Eyorba/+archive/ppa>

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,

Laura

    Oddly enough the crash on startup I was experiencing has gone away
    on its own!

    Shotwell now open. All my photos (~35GB) are now in the missing
    folder. When I edit preferences to change to new Library folder
    (on external drive) Shotwell 0.9.3 does not seem to have found
    them in teh new location as the FAQ entry referenced below
    suggests. I have waited ~30 minutes so far with no visible change.

    Any suggestions?

        Hello,

        I run SHotwell 0.9.3 on Ubuntu 11.04.

        As my pictures and videos grew I needed more disk space and
        also needed fault tolernace and recovery.
        So I bought a WD MyBook Studio 3 x 2 TB disk and configured in
        in RAID 1 mode (half the disk space, slower but gives
        redundancy of data and better fault tolerance).
        The new drive is mounted at /media/external.

        I then moved my ~/Pictures folder to the new external drive at
        /media/external/Pictures following directions in FAQ at:

        
http://redmine.yorba.org/projects/shotwell/wiki/ShotwellFAQ#How-can-I-move-my-photo-files-from-one-directory-or-hard-drive-to-another


        However, now when I run shotwell it does not start. So I
        manually tried the shotwell command (with no args) in a shell.
        This gives the following error:

        "Multiple segmentation faults occurred; can't display error
        dialog"

        What should I do? Thanks for your help.
