    Help, iPhoto's trash doesn't want to empty. I'm trying to erase half of my library but whenever i try to empty the trash, iphoto just hangs. I have to force quit it for it to get started again. I tried rebuilding the iphoto library then draggibg just a few to the trash, but when i tried to empty the trash, it just hung again. I restarted the computer 4 times but still the same thing happens. I even went as far as repairing disk permissions, but same thing. Is there someone who can help?
