Vaults No Longer Show Up in Aperture

I opened Aperture today and my two rotating backup vaults (on two external HDs) do not show up in the "Show Vaults" pane.
Each of these HD Vaults is almost 2TB of Aperture files, so I could wipe the drives and do a fresh backup, but that would probably take about two days running constantly in the background.
Any idea how to get Aperture to recognize my two existing backup vaults??
Thanks for any help.

You're positive the vaults that do show up are indeed the older vaults you are no longer using?  If that is the case then the only other option to try and get the vaults back would be a rebuild.
Before you do that I'd be interested in having you look inside the library at the vaults settings. If you select the library in the Finder and right click it select Show Package Contents, this will display the library in the finder window. In the list of files and folders is one called Database open that folder. Inside it is one called Vaults. Open that. How many files are in the Vaults folder?
Of course at this point you might just be better off creating a new vault, the choice is yours. It's hard to advocate for one action (doing a rebuild) or the other (just making a new vault).
good luck
regards

  • Since updating to iTunes 11 music no longer shows up in Aperture Slideshows

    Since updating to iTunes 11 I can no longer see iTunes music in the Aperture browser for slideshows, it also seems that import of audio doesn't work.

    Do you see iTunes in other applications - Pages, iMovie? If not, you may need to rebuild your iTunes library, see:http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
    For me, iTunes '11 works very well with Aperture 3.4.3.

  • HT2946 Photoshop edits not showing up in Aperture full size image view

    I see that my issue has actually been somewhat addressed in #9 of this article, however no matter how long I wait, the edits I make in PS simply do not show up in Aperture.  The edits are visible in the thumbnail view, but disappear in full size view. The really strange thing is that this is a completely brand new issue. Literally just started about a week ago. So I'm guessing possibly I have inadvertantly changed a setting or something, but for the life of me, I cannot find anywhere to adjust it. Would greatly appreciate any advice! Thanks!!

    Aperture 3.2.3 has a bug at this time.
    If you are running that version of Aperture, you may be experiencing the issue outlined here:

  • Vault does not work any more Aperture 2.1.1

    Hi,
    I just experienced that the vault function does not work anymore for me. When I click on the icon to show the vaults I created, nothing happens and Aperture seems to hang for some time. Sometimes it finally comes back and I can quite Aperture normally. Sometime I just need to force exit.
    I switched to a different library, where no vaults have been created and when I tried to create one by opeing the vault area first, I got the same effect. When I select directly "create vault", it creates the file, but it does not put any content in.
    I'm using Aperture 2.1.1 and MacOS 10.5.4.
    Any hints ?

    I had a similar problem. A portable Maxtor USB drive worked fine as a vault till this am, then message that there is not enough space. Get Info tells me about 54 GB available, and my entire Aperture Library is only 54 GB. Up till today it did incremental backups just fine.
    I added a firewire drive and it seemed to work as a second vault, except while Get Info for the drive says it has a 50 GB Aperture library now, the Vault window in Aperture says this vault is backed up but it only used up 3 GB of the drive. The second widow for the original drive shows the expected amount used, ie about 50 GB.
    So if I run Get Info on the firewire drive, it tells me I have a 50 GB Aperture library, but the small vault window in Aperture says only 3 GB.
    I was going to reformat the original USB drive and re-try it, but this last information is coflicting, Any ideas on how to proceed?

  • XP no longer shows up as a startup disk

    After upgrading to leopard today, my XP partition no longer shows up as a startup disk.
    I had/have my windows partition on it's own drive that was NOT created with bootcamp. I pulled my osx disk from the my mac pro and installed windows on the disk i had in bay 2 using 100% of the disk (ntfs). after installing the bootcamp windows drivers, i reinserted the osx disk and all has been well for the last 4 months,... until the upgrade today that is.
    Now, when i go to the 'Startup Disk' preference Windows is no longer an option. the disk still shows up in Finder and I can navigate around the file system.
    Anyone have any ideas on how I can get it to show up again? I'd really rather not have to reinstall if i can avoid it.
    thx.

    I have exactly the same problem (well, maybe).
    I have installed MacFUSE and ntfs-3g. I don't know if this is of any relevance, because I don't know if it was working directly before I installed them.
    I have my OS X and NTFS volumes on the same physical disk. I also had to install Windows twice because I buggered it up the first time (formatted the partition as FAT32 and ran into a bunch of disk errors).
    I also notice that in WinClone I have 2 Untitled Volumes at /dev/disk0s3 and /dev/disk1s1. /dev/disk0s3 seems to be the legit Windows NTFS partition, but I have no idea what /dev/disk1s1 is about. I don't know if it's been there all along or not but perhaps it is confusing matters and stopping the legit Windows volume/installation from being detected...? Should that second volume exist at all? It doesn't exist according to the Disk util.
    edit: I used fdisk just to have a look at the two untitled partitions.

    I can hold the option key upon startup and manually enter Windows like that, but I'd prefer to be able to restart and boot Windows without having to hold a key.
    Apart from not seeing the Windows boot volume in the system prefs pane, Boot Camp (and the rest of Leopard) has been excellent. I am impressed at the level of apple hardware support for windows. It seems to be much better than most native PC hardware.
    I am dying for an answer. It's a fairly minor problem in the grand scheme of things, but **** it's frustrating.

  • Windows Partition No Longer Shows Up After Accidental Premature Closing of Camptune

    Mac OS X 10.7.5
    I was running Paragon Camptune to expand my Windows 7 partition. The progress bar reached the end and stayed there for about 30 minutes. The Camptune window was then accidentally closed and Camptune quit itself. I restarted the computer but the Windows partition no longer shows up when I try to boot it, only Mac OSX and Recovery Disk. The Bootcamp drive is no longer accessable from System Preferences, and the Bootcamp partition folder is no longer accessable in the Devices area of Finder. Camptune no loner recognizes that there was a partition. Thus, I am no longer able to access the partition's contents or delete it and make a new one.
    It would be preferable if I could fix the partition and have it accessable again, however I have no problem with deleting it and making a new partition. Any advice? Thanks for your time.

    Hi Eric,
    Bootcamp does show up in the disk utility but it is grey instead of black like the Macintosh HD.
    The following information is available:
    Mount Point: Not mounted
    Format: Windows NT File System (NTFS)
    Owners Enabled: -
    Number of Folders: -
    Capacity:  274.55 GB
    Available: -
    Used: -
    Number of Files: -
    What might be the best way to continue to repair it. I do not have the option to click on "verify disk permissions" or "Repair Disk Permissions".
    Should I clone the hard drive in the target disk mode??
    I'm not the best at this stuff so any more advice would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

  • IPod Touch no longer showing up under My Computer

    My iPod Touch is no longer showing in the device list under My Computer and as such can't access it to get my photos off it.
    It works in iTunes just fine, syncs fine, etc.
    If I go to Devices and Printers, it used to be listed under the Devices category as iPod, but now shows under the Unspecified category as Apple Mobile Device USB Driver, so basically a generic device.
    I have no devices with exclamation points or any other trouble signs under Device Manager.
    Help?

    Well, I am not entirely sure what exactly happened but after trying numerous times to reinstall the drivers and getting all sorts of error messages, I finally got Windows 7 to cooperate. The iPod Touch now shows up and is being detected as a digital camera under Devices, and under Computer it is showing up under Portable Devices. If I double-click on it I can view my pictures, transfer them, delete them, etc.

  • Status page in X3000 no longer showing any data.

    It no longer shows data such as the Internet IP address, Gateway etc.
    Only DNS IP addresses are shown.

    Hi, 
    Try to turn off your X3000 for around 60secs then check again. If it's doing the same issue after doing a powercycle, you may have to perform a hard reset then reconfigure your router.

  • Ipad app store no longer shows updates

    ipad app store no longer shows updates. was working fine until a couple days ago - whwt can I do?

    If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
    According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.

  • My MacBook Pro no longer shows up on my devices how do I add it back

    Hi,
    My MacBookPro no longer shows up on my devices that is associated with my AppleId. Any suggestions? I did go to ITunes and follow the instructions on how to add and delete but it is not giving me the option to add.  Just had new hard drive installed and restored from time capsule without any other issues.
    Operating system is 10.9.4., Processor 2.7 Ghz Intel Core 17, Memory 16 GB, 1333 MHz DDR3, Storage 526.65 Free out of 999.35 GB. and I did not update to OS X Yosemite. (Because I've heard negative things about IPhoto and I'm working on several photobooks right now.
    Not sure if any of the information about my laptop is needed or useful, but thought it may be so am trying to be helpful.
    Thanks - ANY feedback is much appreciated.

    Hi there,
    When you say associated devices - are you referring to authorized devices within iTunes (i.e. devices that are able to access your iTunes account)? Or do you mean your registered devices when you log into your Apple ID on Apple's website?

  • My settings icon is no longer showing.  How do get back on my screen?

    My settings icon is no longer showing on my iPad screen.  I can found it when I search for it.  But I how do I get the icon on my screen? Thanks in advance foray help you provide.

    Have you checked all your homescreens and app folders for it, also how many screens of apps have you got on the iPad (there is a maximum of 11) ?
    You could try a reset and see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Of you could try resetting your homescreens via Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout and see if you can then find it.

  • My ipod no longer shows in my itunes help, my ipod no longer shows in my itunes help

    my ipod is no longer showing up in my itunes, it use to i have tired everything, it will only charge can you tell me what could be wrong and how to fix it please

    There may be various issues associated with updating to iTunes 10.4.1 but I was able to fix my problem with iTunes not seeing my devices. iTunes would start fine but connecting my iPhone or iPad would result in the beach ball hang. I noticed the same thing would happen if I tried to click on the MobileMe icon on the status bar so it pointed to a sync services problem. Looking in "~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices" I saw some "ErrorInfo.txt" files with "SyncDataDirectoryCorruptedException, reason = The Admin Database does not exist. It should have been created by upgradedb."
    I had already reinstalled Lion to get iTunes10.4 back which didn't help so that step may not be necessary but I restored "~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices/Local" from my Time Machine backup from the day before the 10.4.1 update and that fixed my problem.
    I've re-updated to 10.4.1 and everything still works.
