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

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,

Laura
