Aperture photos in PSE 11

how do I import my aperture photos into PSE 11

Export the photos from aperture, put them where you want to keep them, and use file>get photos>from files and folders to import them.
Just out of curiosity, why organizer rather than aperture?

  • Problem with editing Aperture photos with Photoshop Elements 10

    When I try to edit with Photoshop Elements 10, Aperture makes a tiff file, starts Photoshop Elements 10 and get to a screen where I have a choice between "editing" or "managing" files.  I select editing but when i finally get the editing screen there is no photo to edit.  Process worked fine in Elements 9 and Aperture 3.1. Anybody been able to roundtrip with Aperture 3.2.1 and Photoshop Elements 10?

    (Aperture 3 and PSE 10; Lion; using Referenced files in Aperture)
    I tried Barbara's recommended method and PSE now opens with the image displayed and accepts edits.  However, when I save the adjusted image, what I get in Aperture is a TIFF file of that name but with no edits displayed.
    When I go to the directory in which the referenced files are located, the adjusted file exists and I can view it.
    So, (at least as I have things configured), when accessing PSE from Aperture I am able to make adjustments and save the adjusted file, but the adjusted file does not display in Aperture.
    Is anyone having success with Barbara's method using referenced files? 
    I hope it is not necessary to do a separate import to get the adjusted file to display in Aperture - which would make PSE totally impractical for use.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • I am trying to import photos into PSE 12 from folders on my desktop, which are organized by broad topics--family, vacations, etc..  Many of my photos are located in several folders.  When I try to import them to PSE I get a message saying some photos were

    I am new to PSE 12 and am trying to import my photos from folders on my desktop which I have organized by the categories I had in my previous program (Creative Memories).  Many of my photos are located in multiple folders, i.e. one photo could be in "Family," Vacations" and "Birthdays."  When I try to import the contents of each folder on my desktop I am often getting the message that many of my photos were not imported as they are already in my catalog.  Is there a way that I can import any one photo multiple times so that it ends up in all the folders I want it to be in?  I know I can locate the photo in PSE and copy it to a different folder(s), but there are so many not being imported that this would be a huge task!

    By design, the organizer (and any other database management systems) is there to prevent you from duplicating your media files. The catalog management allows you to have the same image in different categories or albums. Duplication in different folders is to be absolutely avoided.
    The same image file can have multiple tags like 'family', 'vacations', 'birthdays' and be present in three different albums with the same names. On obvious advantage is less disk space. Another one with your present folder system is that if you edit one of your duplicates, the other ones are unchanged.
    I don't see an easy way to make your present folder structure simplified for the organizer ...

  • I have an external hard drive set up as a Time Machine backup on my IMac. I want to add a second external hard drive and put my Aperture Photo Library on it. Is there a way to have the photos on this second hard drive automatically back up to the Time Mac

    I have an IMac with an external hard drive set up as  a Time Machine for automatic backups. I want to add a second external hard drive and load my Aperture Photo Library on to it so that the library can be shared by both me and my wife. Is there a way to automatically backup the photo library that will be on the second hard drive to the Time Machine hard drive?

  • How do I save an edited photo in PSE 12. It keeps saying editing in progress

    How do I save an edited photo in PSE 12. It keeps saying editing in progress

    You mean in the organizer? Go back to the edtior and save the way you would in any program (ctrl+S/command+S or File>Save) and close the image there.

  • Raw files in aperture photo books

    Hi,
    I'm creating my first aperture photo book. I uploaded raw files to aperture, made adjustments, and then placed the versions into the book. It is these versions (with all crops, adjustments, etc.) that will show up in my photo book, correct? (That's what it looks like when I preview the book, but I just want to make sure I didn't need to convert them to jpeg or anything before I spend over $100 on this book!)
    Thanks!

    When you create a version in Aperture it automatically creates a jpeg, so you don't have to do anything else. It is all automatic.

  • When importing from camera into aperture, photo's are also copied to my desktop, if i delete from desktop i am unable to edit photo in aperture. Must have done something, but what?

    Have a look at your import setting specifically Store Files:
    Make sure it is set to where you want the originals to go.
    Message was edited by: Frank Caggiano - Don;t empty the system trash. The originals that you deleted from the Desktop are in there and are the only copies you have unless they are still in the camera.

  • Aperture photos not showing up in other apps

    I just noticed that all my aperture photos arent showing up in other applications that provide an aperture hook. EXCEPT for the latest images that I have imported.
    All my images are the and I can see the folders fine in other apps, but they show empty. I did have to do an archive and install lately so am sure that I had some files that didnt make it over..
    How can I recreate my library in order to fix this?
    am not missing anything in aperture, just the integration with other apps, I tried exporting and then importing my library but lost all the organization that i had done. so reverted
    thanks.
    Darrin

    I had updated the previews with no luck, I just restored my library from the vault and it is rebuilding everything now.
    that worked! maybe update previews was different than a rebuild of previews, but i didnt see that option.
    thanks

  • Deleting a photo from PSE 8 and Nikon ViewNX 2 at same time?

    My PSE 8 has the Nikon program as the supplementary editing program, and the Nikon program has PSE 8 as the open with program.  I made sure that the settings were made.  When I delete a photo in PSE 8, why isn't the same photo automatically deleted from Nikon ViewNX 2 and the reverse when working in the Nikon program which isn't often that I do?  The same question could also be applied to Windows Live Photo Gallery which I don't like to use, but photos keep accumulating as in the Nikon program.  PSE 8 is my main program for editing, but would like to learn NX 2.  My PSE 8 is kept clear of unwanted photos. Is there a control that I am missing, or am I asking too much to be able to keep unwanted photos off my computer?  I know I may have to do it manually, but hope that there is an easy solution.  By the way, deleting from NX doesn't automatically delete the same photo from PSE 8 either.

    You are right about that.  I loaded ViewNX 2 to help solve another problem which it did. The problem is solved so I will delete NX 2.  I couldn't understand when I got Windows 7 why there were people who wanted to know how to unstall Live Photo Gallery.  Well, now that I have PSE 8 I know why.  Of course, PSE 8 does more and Photo Gallery fights PSE 8.  From what I read, getting rid of Photo Gallery couln't be done by simply doing the "unstall".  It sounded so complicated.  Will check it out again, but better to deal with two programs than three.  Thanks again.

  • Saving edited photos in PSE 12 from Lr 5

    I have edited several photos in PSE 12 from Lr5
    After selecting the item to edit with the magnetic lasso tool on the background layer and saving it in selections I created  a new layer and reloaded the selection so far so good
    After editing and then going to save the photo does not show in Lr, it is in the pictures folder but only the selection is visible and the background or unedited portion is white
    I went into Lr and picked the appropriate folder and after right clicking selected  syncronise folder the picture then is displayed in Lr.
    Do I need to select or deselect  or combine the layers before saving or am I missing some other commands out.
    Please try to keep instructions simple new to these programs so all unfamiliar ar present.

    You probabloy used Save As. So you created a new file which Lightroom knows nothing about.
    You need to start the round trip from LR as follows and use the save command (Ctrl+S) not save as:
    1) Ctrl+E in the Library to export selected image with develop settings (I choose PSD)
    2) Edit in PSE; then Ctrl+S to replace (overwrite) Lightroom export copy
    3) Ctrl+W to close in PSE and update Lightroom thumbnail.
    On Mac OSX Cmd+E; Cmd+S; Cmd+W
    Also make sure all your layers are visibe (eye symbol not turned off) before using Ctrl+S

  • Missing Photos in PSE 12, but not in PSE 11

    I own PSE 11 & PSE 12.  Several of my photos in PSE 12 have the question mark (missing photo).  These same photos don;t have the question mark in PSE 11.  How can I resolve this issue?

  • How do I transfer photos from PSE 12 to PSE 13 and do I uninstall PSE12?

    I have downloaded PSE 13, and now need to move the photos in PSE 12 organizer to PSE 13.  Do I uninstall PSE 12 after photo transfer?

    PSE12 simply mirrors your folders on the hard drive of your computer. The Organizer stores nothing physically; simply making links to your folders.
    Try copying outside Elements from the OS to Kindle.
      Otherwise you probably need to contact Amazon.

  • Archiving Photos in PSE 7

    I am trying to clear up space on my hard drive, so I'm interested in archiving photos by using the "Copy/Move Offline" feature. I no longer want to have full versions on my hard drive, just the thumbnail references, and I'm hoping to minimize the difficulty in accessing the full versions when I upgrade the software. I have a couple of ideas/issues to figure out and would appreciate some help:
    1. One option is archive to a DVD--my issue is that I use a specific folder structure on my harddrive (i.e. Year>Quarter = 2007>JAN-MAR), and I'm not sure how to create that on a DVD (or if its necessary). Do I need to use a read/write DVD in order to create my structure ahead of time, then "move offline" the files in sections? Would I still need the structure?
    2. Another option is my external harddrive--I tried to "move offline," using the "Copy/Move Offline" feature, the full version photos to the external harddrive, so that I could still have my folder structure. Then I was hoping that I could access the photos in PSE when the harddrive was disconnected, and they would show up as "offline." No such luck. When I went to a photo that should have been "offline," it treated it as a missing link and tried to reconnnect. Anyone know why this is happening? Any other suggestions on how to make it offline on an external harddrive?
    *I do also want to mention that I have a full back up on an off-site server, and I plan on burning DVD's with just the photos and sending them to other off-site locations (i.e. family members), so that I don't have all my eggs in one basket, so to speak.

    I recommend moving your folder heirarchy to an external hard drive using Display > Folder Location view:
    http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_Move_your_photos
    I strongly recommend against using File > Copy/Move to Removable Disk.  A fair number of people have reported here that when they used this command in an older version of PSE and then upgraded, their catalog was corrupted.  Most of them were able to recover their photos and tags, but it was very painful.   Adobe customer service was useless -- they even asked one person to mail them a copy of his catalog, and after a coule of months, they said in effect "sorry".    So in my opinion, you'd be foolish to entrust your metadata to Adobe.
    Copy/Move To Removable doesn't preserve your folder structure.  It also doesn't make "previews" or "proxies" (large thumbnails) of your images when you move the files to a hard drive rather than optical media, as you've discovered.  (Not clear if that's a "feature" or a "bug".)

  • Can't see all Aperture photos

    In iMovie '08 (7.1.4), I'm trying to use photos from Aperture (2.1.2). I can see and use all of my Aperture photos in the iMovie Photo Viewer except my most recent Aperture project. I have over 1000 photos in that project and can see them in Aperture but only 10 are showing in that project looking at it from iMovie. It seems to be a random 10 photos. None are rated, have any other odd keywords, or are any different format that my other Aperture Projects that are showing from iMovie.
    I have re-started and re-booted all applications and my computer several times.
    Any ideas?

    Never mind- I figured out the problem.
    I "Updated Previews" in Aperture and now I can see them all in iMovie.
