Aperture 3.4.1 won't edit some images

I upgraded my iPhoto library to v9.4 and all seems to be ok. I then installed Aperture 3.4.1. Some of my photos I can edit ok in Aperture, but many of them cannot be edited even though taken with the same camera on the same day. Where the histogram normally comes up there is the message "iPhoto externally edited image". In the past I've done most of my editing in Photoshop Elements, with only a few edited in iPhoto. There doesn't seem to be any pattern to the Aperture problem, however. Some  images that have been edited in PS can be edited in Aperture, and some that I haven't touched cannot be edited in Aperture. I'm pretty sure the same applies to iPhoto editing.
Any ideas on how to get around this problem?
Malcolm

I just answered my own question with a little help from a related discussion that popped up when I posted this. The block on editing apparently applies to anything modified in iPhoto. But duplication to create a new Aperture version creates an editable image.
Thanks.

  • Safari won't load some images (after upgrade to Mavericks from Lion)

    Hi,
    I've noticed that since I upgraded my OS from Lion to Mavericks, Safari won't load all images on certain websites.
    I've tried loading the same pages on my daughter's MacBookPro (she upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks) and everything works just fine.
    We cross checked the Safari preferences and everything is identical.
    Below are two pictures, the first one taken from my computer, the second one from my daughter's. As you can see, in the first photo the image won't display, while it's been perfectly loaded in the second photo.
    Here's the website: http://blog.alice.tv/berengario/2013/11/16/trasmissione-su-arturo-tv/
    I've tried opening the same page on Firefox, and all images are perfectly displayed.
    Could you please help me?
    Thank you for your support!
    Kind regards,
    Leo

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Column View won't display some images downloaded by browser

    I have used the "Preview" in Column View to display images for some time and some images downloaded to folders will never display. The wheel just spins in the display area and CMD-i doesn't display the image either. If I open the image in the Preview application it displays! There is no detectable difference in the files that do and don't display in Col. View. I can get any image to show up by opening a graphic application and doing a "Save As" to reprocess the image and replace the balky one. But, this is not right that I should have to do this. I cannot determine whether a downloded image is going to have a problem or not as some from the same websites are OK sometimes and some are not. I had the problem with OS 10.2.8 too. Changing from iCab to Safari does not help.

    ACK!!!! Cancel all that because it happens using Firefox too. I have NO IDEA what in the world is happening to my system that would cause web pages to load incompletely.
    What a drag.

  • Never saw Safari doing this before! Won't display some images !!! *** ??

    So I am using Safari for quite some time. All of a sudden, in the middle of the day, Safari won't display all the images on any given web page. For example, I go to flickr.com and see that half the photos on the page wont load. The status indicator says that Safari is done trying to load the page, yet half it is empty. Resetting, and then restarting Safari does nothing to help the situation.
    I really want to like Safari but am bewildered by all the problems it has (massive memory leaks, CPU runs at 100% every other day).
    But not showing photos is too much!

    I, myself am not crazy about Firefox, because it's a resource hog. Safari on the other side is simple, neat and clean. I have uninstalled the Apple Updater that gets installed with the Safari installation and that ensures that Safari doesn't give me any hassles.
    It is just this image problem that I am experiencing at the moment. I really hope that someone can resolve this before the final release of Firefox 3.

  • IPhoto won't "see" some images on iPhone

    Hi
    Strangely and all of a sudden (or at least I think) iPhoto detects that I have images on my iPhone but won't let me view them. When I right click all the fields are greyed out too. Instead it just shows dotted lines around them. If I open image capture - it detects jpegs but won't view them. If I use image capture to download the images to my desktop, the files are perfectly normal and I can then then drag and drop them into iPhoto which again, will treat them as normal as usual.
    The only common factor with these files is that they are taken with hipstamatic or modified with swankolab; some are also wallpapers from 10,000 wallpapers app. I don't have this problem with photos taken with the camera.
    can you please advise?
    Thanks

    I went to the hipstamatic site and discovered that its a problem affecting quite a few people. Customers apparently seem to be caught between Hipstamatic and Apple - both passing the buck onto the other to the detriment of customers:

  • Safari won't display some images on websites

    I have tired all the suggestions on the discussion boards (i.e., clear cache, clear flash player cache, checked to see if disable images was cheked).  I am still experiencing the same problem. 
    Does anyone have other suggestions to slove this problem.
    Thank you.

    I'm still not sure what I would have to do to reproduce the problem, but let's leave that aside for now. What are your OS X and Safari versions?

  • Keynote won't let me edit some text

    Suddenly I'm unable to edit some of the text in my Keynote. The text I'm trying to edit is not in my master slide but some are animated. Some of the text is editable.

    As a workaround; create a new slide and enter text, then delete the corrupt slides.

  • Encore won't encode some PSD files in Flash

    I have succesfully completed a DVD project on Encore (4.0)  with mpg elements edited in Premier Pro (4.0). A number of slide sequences constructed from jpgs converted
    to pds files in Photoshop (cs5) have been used, plus some (individual, single) text slides, (constructed in Photoshop) have also been included with the DVD project. All of this works
    fine. However, when I render the whole project for Flash, the text files are not included! During the render process the file details are displayed but no yellow progress bar appears.
    The Flash file is prefereable to the DVD as this enables the Flash file to be available from a central common drive or server.
    Can anyone assist me with this? I can find nor reference to these types of issues iether on the forum or anywhere on the net.
    MAC Book Pro 17"

    Hi Stan
    And thanks for the prompt reply. I will try this twixt Christmas and new year. My recollection was that the text created in Premier
    when imported into Encore looked “poor” as an mpg. However I had not rendered the project in Flash at that stage. Will
    have to look at how Premier works direct to Flash without Encore?

  • Some images created in Tiger unusable under Leopard - can crash Aperture

    I have tried both updates and clean installs of Leopard on my MBP and external firewire disks. In both cases I find that a large number of images in my libraries (built under Tiger), give Aperture fits. For example, whilst I can see thumbnails, I can't export versions - messages come up to say the images can't be decoded. Similarly, if I try to edit or view some images full screen, I get a message saying "unsupported format". At times, trying to work with these images crashes Aperture.
    In a couple of cases, I still have the offending images on cards and I was then able to import them anew into Aperture (running under Leopard) - these work OK.
    Boinx Fotomagico under Leopard stopped running and quit without warning trying to run previously created slideshows that incorporate some of the above-mentioned images.
    I conclude that there is a problem with Leopard's treatment of images rather than Aperture specifically. However, I have no clue how to address the problem. At present Leopard is just unusable for me.

    Hello
    a - my way of life is the Winston Churchil's one : "absolutely no sport"
    b - as during more than 30 years I ruled a pottery workshop using a process which is unique worldwide, I know what confidentiality means.
    c - Whe I exchange with Apple, they don't ask me to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement.
    They perfectly know that when I beta tested I NEVER violate the signed ones.
    I'm aware of anomalies when using Numbers under Leopard.
    Maybe you met one which I ignored.
    Knowing such of these problems, I decided to use Tiger as my main operating system.
    Here, as I play safety, Leopard is always in test, not in real use.

  • WINE won't accept *some* keyboard input.

    I'm not entirely sure whether this is the right place to ask something about WINE, but since most people do, I think it's fine.
    Anyway, I'm having a little trouble with WINE. It won't read some input on some games like Astro Tripper and Warning Forever. It works perfectly (almost) on Ragnarok private server stuff, but on these two, i dont know.
    Specific to Astro Tripper:
    -The only button I can press is Enter. I can start the game then crash into a wall And yeah, the escape key works too. Arrow keys wont work, even in the menu.
    Warning Forever:
    - The only button that works is F12, which does only one thing: restart the game. Arrow keys wont work, even in the menu. [edit: works now. solves only this problem though]
    Limit RO
    - Flawless, except public chat. You can ignore this problem
    What I tried to do:
    - remove all wine config stuff and reinstall wine. Also, installed the latest DX redistributable.
    Warning Forever is a very small game (700kb). I hope someone figures this out. Btw, I also tried running on both wine with virtual desktop and without virtual desktop

    Exactly same thing here! I thought it was because of Musca (WM) because I changed a lot of its full screen handling code.
    Musca can switch between floating and tiled. This makes for the following:
    Tiled: Wine won't get input except at the start of the game sometimes not even
    Switch to floating: Wine gets input
    Cycle in group and back to Wine: Wine does not get focus until you switch to Tile and back to Floating
    Cycle to another group and back to the Wine group: Wine keeps focus
    So for the most comfortable usage where I switch to and from Wine a lot I have to put it in its own group in Floating mode.
    Perfect Dark can regain focus by clicking some search keys.

  • Why do I get Colored bands on some images in LR4 and LR5, but not in Aperture?

    On some images -- both RAW and JPG -- when opened in LR4 or LR5, there will be one or two "curved" color abberation lines across the entire image. This doesn't occur when I open the images in Aperture. Any idea why? Thanks

    >Is it possible that Aperture is showing you the camera-embedded JPG by default?  What happens if you actually produce a JPG from the raw file in Aperture?
    Aperture works the same way as Lightroom in this respect. It will first show you the embedded jpeg and will render a new conversion from the raw data as soon as it can. So it is possible the OP saw the embedded jpeg, but that should not last long and certainly by now should have been replaced with a newly rendered preview. Either Aperture is more forgiving of a small defect in the raw file or Lightroom import is somehow getting corrupt files of the sd card and Aperture not (would be weird). Another option is that the camera raw cache is corrupt. This can be checked by emptying the cache (Preferences->File Handling->Purge Cache). Lastly, this might be a corrupt preview in Lightroom. Check this by zooming 1:1 on an offending area in the Develop module and seeing if it goes away.
    >I suspect that the curvature is in fact due to lens corrections, and that these lens corrections are always on
    I believe you are right. I remember vaguely that there is some default lens correction with some cameras like this that is independent of the lens correction module. No clue whether the LX7 is one.

  • I just noticed that I can no longer select photos out of my finder that are located in my Aperture/Iphoto Library.  I used to be able to attach photos to my gmail out of the aperture library in the finder and for some reason, no longer can.

    I just noticed that I can no longer select photos out of my finder that are located in my Aperture/Iphoto Library.  I used to be able to attach photos to my gmail out of the aperture library in the finder and for some reason, no longer can.
    I can't access these images except to go into the applications. 
    Also, I'd like to import my iphoto library into aperture, and move aperture library to an external drive.  I tried the import first, but there wasn't enough space.  Then I tried copying over the aperture library onto the external drive but it failed bc it said file was in use. 
    As it is, I only have 50gb left on my imac, and the aperture library is 150gb.  Also, I have over 10k images in both libraries combined and there are tons of duplicates that need to be sorted, and hopefully not messed up because I've organized most of them.
    So in short, I need to know how to do the following:
    -select photos in finder in aperture/iphoto libraries
    -move aperture library to live on external drive
    -import iphoto library into aperture library
    -eliminate dups but maintain organization
    -moving forward i need a better workflow so that I import images from camera, and can organize right away into albums rather than creating projects by default and then creating albums so essentially the photos are in 2 different places, even tho they are referenced
    -live happily ever after
    Thanks in advance for any support you can offer!!

    If you're using apps like iPhoto or Aperture then they replace the Finder for managing your photos. The point is that you use the (many) options available via these apps for the things you want and need to do with the Photos.
    So, simply, you don't select the photos in the Finder. I'll append the supported ways to do this - which are faster and will yield the current version of your Photos - to the end of this post.
    -move aperture library to live on external drive
    Managed or Referenced Library? Managed -
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit Aperture
    2. Copy the Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching Aperture. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Referenced -  relocate your Masters first.
    These issues are covered in the Manual and on this forum hundreds of times.
    -import iphoto library into aperture library
    FIle -> Import -> iPhoto Library? Have you done this already? If so are you trying to move the Masters to Aperture from an  iPhoto Library? Or Consolidate them?
    -moving forward i need a better workflow so that I import images from camera, and can organize right away into albums rather than creating projects by default and then creating albums so essentially the photos are in 2 different places, even tho they are referenced
    You can't. Every photo is in a Project.  They’re the basic building blocks of the Library.
    You might want to spend a little time with the manual or the video tutorials. I'm not sure you've grasped the app  you've purchased.
    The following is written for iPhoto, but about 97% works for Aperture too.
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto/ APerture:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics. This is what you use to attach your shot to your GMail
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto/ Aperture.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto/ Aperture not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser

  • Is there a way to transfer Aperture files to Photoshop CS5 for editing?

    Is there a way to transfer Aperture files to Photoshop CS5 for editing? I recently had a crash of CS5 Bridge. It seems to have caused a problem with Aperture. So, I reinstalled both CS5 and Aperture. Before installing CS5 I uploaded NEF (Nikon RAW) files to Aperture. Now I have reinstalled CS5 I want to use it to edit the same photos from Aperture, as I know more about editing in CS5 than Aperture. I tried to export to CS5 but, Aperture would not give me  that option. At least I could not find it.

    You can set an external editor in the "Aperture Preferences -> Export " settings.
    Just set this to CS5.
    The resullt of your external edit will create a new version of your image.
