Aperture 3.2: renaming based on date/time doesn't work properly

While importing I rename my photos based on the date/time they were taken.
In Aperture 3.1.3 this worked perfectly fine; for photos taken within the same second Aperture added an index number for the second, third etc. photo automatically.
In Aperture 3.2 this doesn't work any longer; Aperture simply doesn't import photo number 2, 3 etc. of that particular one second.
Note: I store the original files outside the aperture library, all run under snow leopard on an iMac i7. And as I said this worked fine under 3.1.
Does anyone have an idea?

Thanks all for the response
Leonie, here are the details of what I do/experience:
a) Aperture message after import
b) I import pairs and rename them as follows “IMG_{Image Date}_{Image_Time}” (I know all the disadvantages of this but old habits are hard to break… and for me it still works fine)
c) Difference of the images that are imported / not imported is solely the hundredth of the second when they were taken. Of my test series only the first image has been imported:
DSC_4903.jpg(2011/10/19 22:49:50.08)
DSC_4904.jpg(2011/10/19 22:49:50.25)
DSC_4905.jpg(2011/10/19 22:49:50.43)
DSC_4906.jpg(2011/10/19 22:49:50.60)
DSC_4907.jpg(2011/10/19 22:49:50.80)
d) I import via the import panel: Import in new project – storefiles in particular folder (not Aperture library) – subfolder ‘imageyear/month” – rename as described above – import both
Doug, after some trial and error I agree with your thoughts, Aperture apparently simply lost its automatic indexes ‘-1’, ‘-2’ etc. and – what is good - doesn’t overwrite the first with the second and the third image... As you suggest there are different options to make the images unique. Most simple would be to add {index #} or {sequence #} or {counter}, all would do and I probably will choose one of them. Or I will downgrade back to 3.1.3 (do have backups) and wait until Apple fixes this.
Kirby, turnoff “Don’t import duplicates” was a good idea but didn’t solve it. But your naming convention actually ensures the uniqueness of the files.

  • Reinstalled 10.3.4, now date/time doesn't work or open

    I had a hard drive failure, a company replaced my drive with a new one in my G4. The new hard drive works fine, they reinstalled 10.3.4 from my original disks, but the date/time doesn't work and I can't open that panel even.
    So I just resinstalled from those disks again and it still didn't fix this problem.
    Also my old password for installers doesn't work either, but it lets me bypass it.
    Any suggestions?
    Should I just try upgrading to Tiger and see if that works?
    Thanks

    blackrhino:
    Not sure what the problem is, however, before you go reinstalling or upgrading try this:
    1. Reset PRAM.
    2. a. From a cold start, boot from your installer disk holding down the "C" button. Go to the Installer Menu and open Disk Utility.
    b. Select your Mac OS X startup disk.
    c. Select the First Aid tab in the Disk Utility window.
    d. Select Repair Disk button in Main panel. If problems are found run again and again until no problems are reported.
    e. Select the Repair Disk Permissions button on the First Aid tab.
    f. After Repair Disk Permissions completes, Quit (Command-Q) Disk Utility.
    3. Update Software to 10.3.9 (Go to Apple Menu and select Software Update.
    Post back after these operations.
    Good luck.

  • WARNING: Adjust Date & Time doesn't work

    I bought Aperture 2.0 because I was thrilled they finally have an adjust date/time feature. The interface is great, but it simply doesn't work.
    I was trying to adjust a batch of images by 30 seconds to get it in sync with another camera, however, it ended up adjusting it by 30 minutes!
    I was trying to get the time to change from:
    1:33:09 PM to
    1:32:39 PM
    and the image ended up at
    1:00:33 PM
    Anyone else had a similar problem or a solution for this serious bug?

    I added my own topic earlier this morning. In my case, it's working just fine if my primary image is RAW and all selected images are also RAW (Canon 300D). It also works just fine if the primary and all selected images are JPEG (from either a Canon S3 or a Panasonic Lumix digicam). However, if the primary image is RAW (Canon 300D) and any selected images are JPEG (anything modified in iPhoto, or originally shot in JPEG from by Canon 300D), all **** breaks loose on those JPEG image dates.
    I have some which went back a few months, but most of them jumped forward between 6 months and 2 years.
    Again, something is severely broken with this function.
    Anyone know how to get the original dates back? Please? I'm setting aside several hours tonight to restore the pre-2.0 backup, export my 2.0-only projects, and import those back in, just forgetting any changes I'd made to historical project files in the meantime. This really *****.

  • Is it possible to get the updated table records based on date & time.

    Is it possible to get the updated table records based on date & time in oracle.
    Thanks in advance.

    no, actually i am asking update records using 'UPDATE
    or DELETE' statement, but not insert statement.
    Is it possible?
    I think we can do using trigger on table, but problem
    is if i am having 20 tables means i have to write 20
    trigger. i don't want like this.Of course it's still possible, typically you'll find applications with a column LAST_UPDATE, probably a LAST_UPDATED_BY and so on column. You don't say what your business need is, if you just want a one of query of updates to particular records and have a recent version of Oracle, then flashback query may well help, if you want to record update timestamps you either have to modify the table, or write some code to store your updates in an audit table somewhere.

    Greetings alex.bonifacio! I'm very sorry that you're having connection problems with your iPhone 5. While would love to help in any way I can, the device must at least be on an active line of service with Verizon Wireless in order for me to be able to make any changes. I must therefore urge you to contact your local wireless carrier for your equipment options. Good luck and thanks!

  • The cable doesn't work properly when connected as data cable.

    Hi,
    I have recently encountered problem of the cable. The thing is that if i use it just for charging with the plug, it works fine. But when i wanna use it with computer (i.e., accessing itunes, etc) or with my car, it doesn't work properly, it keeps switching between charging and discharging very fast. I will appreciate your quick support!
    Regards,
    Farhan

    Just for all the people to know, I found out the solution. You have to mark the correct side of the charging cable which connects at inlet of the phone. Because this point acts as a chip when used as data cable or auxiliary use (car,etc). That's why it charges with the plug on any side. I don't know what's the frequency of it happening to iphone 5s users, because I bought it recently (iOS 7.1.1) Hope it helps to others in future.

  • Exporting 3D Camera data into C4D doesn't work properly.

    When I export from AE into C4D, the resulting file data doesnt seem to work properly. I have weird rotations where there shouldn't be and the camera shakes all of the place.

    Any thoughts why it doesn't seem to be working correctly.

    same problem here, with a camera linked to a null object, which is actually moving, not the camera.
    In C4D (R14 studio) the movement goes wild, i's not what it's like in AE CC2014

    Hi Shawn and Jason,
    I have the same problem. One workaround is to clean your disk before running LiveCycledesigner. After you have cleaned up your disk LiveCycleDesigner will start a few times and you can work with it.
    It is an Vista problem. LiveCycleDesigner 8.1 which is just released had fixed the problem so you can also download 8.1
