Why was it so difficult to find an effective solution to inflation problems between 1964 and 1983?

It is due to the nature of economic policy. Normally inflation and unemployment are inversely related, so policy decisions can be made to cure one at the expense of the other (for instance, raising of interest rates lowers inflation but risks stifling business growth). During the period between 1964 and 1983, we experienced "stagflation" (high unemployment AND high inflation). So when we experience both at the same time, policy makers have their hands tied as to what to do. If they decide to try to get inflation lower, they risk making unemployment worse (and it's already bad) and if they try to get employment lower, they risk making inflation worse.

Is it true that the occurrence of inflation and high unemployement at the same time is called crowding in?

False, crowding in occurs when decreases in government spending lead to an increase in private spending.Note that we (almost) often have inflation in all economies. Inflation just means that prices rises over time, something which is quite normal. Many countries operates with an inflation target of 2-2,5% per year, and it is only when actual inflation deviates substantially from this target that problem occurs. A high inflation rate (well above the target) together with high unemployment is known as stagflation.
