Why is there no white balance info in 3.3.1?

I want to transfer my iPhoto library over to Aperture, but am reluctant to do so until I have familiarised myself with the new program. (I have over 23,000 photos in iPhoto!)
As a start, I have imported a few of my recent photos from iPhoto so that I can find my way around Aperture. One thing puzzles me. I can see the white balance information for each photo in iPhoto but the white balance field is greyed out in the Aperture metadata, and there is no 'cloud' or 'sun' picture at the top right of the Info panel, even though the white balance field is ticked in the Metadata Fields panels for Exif Info and Camera Info. I really need to know which camera setting I used for each photo to help me learn how to take better photos, but as far as I can see the information is not available to me anywhere in Aperture.
I have performed Aperture Library First Aid (repaired permissions and database, and rebuilt database) but the problem still exists. I can't find anything anywhere on the internet or in Apple Support that mentions this problem. Does anyone have any ideas for me please?

Sorry, I see you are referring to the Info and not the Adjustment.
Since I am seeing both in each program, I am not sure which may be the culprit.
You could try launching Aperture while depressing the 'Option' key and creating a new test library (Create New.. button). Then export some original files from iPhoto to say the desktop > import into the Aperture test library to see if the information shows up.
If you now see the info, then there may be something going on with iPhoto that is preventing the transfer. If this is the case, you might try the iPhoto discussions since the usual helpers would know more than I about fixing a potential iPhoto library issue.
Otherwise, wait for someone more knowledgable than I to help here as I am not sure what would cause that if iPhoto isn't (and since you have already used the Aperture First Aid).

  • Why is there extra white space at the top of swf file?

    I can't figure out how to get rid of extra white space in the browser at the top of a swf file. It looks fine when I preview the file, but when I do publish preview in flash/ try to incorporate in HTML, there's an extra 1/4" at top of window.

    Do you have the html page (that you have the swf file embedded into) set so that there are no page margins? Your "body" tag should look like this…
    <body leftmargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" topmargin="0">

  • Why is there extra white space on below the navigation bar?

    I am running Nightly 6.0a1, and for the past few days, there has been extra white space under the Navigation Toolbar, as though there is an extra empty toolbar. The only toolbar I have is the Navigation Toolbar. BTW, this happens w/ tabs on top and bottom. Here's a screenshot: [http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af162/cg2916/extraspace.png http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/af162/cg2916/extraspace.png]

    Do you see any toolbars listed in "Nightly > Options" that are visible but do have a check mark?

  • Does metadata show jpeg white balance info?

    This whole metadata thing has me confused.
    I can't see the WB info in metadata unless i save the RAW file as a jpeg.
    If i take the pic AS a jpeg, all the WB metadata ever says is AUTO, even though i set it to deifferent light sources.
    Am I doing something wrong? And is there a way to see the ACTUAL setting I used on the WB for jpeg files OR a RAW file WITHOUT having to save it as a jpeg?
    Thanks, people!

    Robert -- my in-camera WB setting shows correctly in the metadata (e.g.: Auto, Daylight, Shade, Cloudy Weather, etc.).  I use a Sony a850.
    It sounds as though either your Nikon codes the WB in a proprietary field (every mfr. creates their own RAW file format), or Aperture is not properly reading the EXIF.  You could read the EXIF yourself to see whether Nikon puts the WB in the expected field.
    Perhaps someone with Nikon experience can join in.  I'm sorry to report that I have none.
    Fwiw, I always shoot RAW and AWB and make corrections are needed in Aperture.  Since I make only RAW captures and use an OVF, I have no use for the in-camera WB settings.

  • Why is there unwanted white space added to all .jpg/.png when "inserted" into Dreamweaver CS4?

    I have two seperate sites/seperate root folders that I am building right now and every image that I insert into Dreamweaver has an extra white space added to the left of every image. Please help, I must have checked/unchecked something in my preferences. Thank you!
    Its not in my CSS or in the HTML coding...from my site:
    <a href="optomized-large/Havana-Night-(66-of-312).jpg" title=""> <img src="optomized-thumb/Havana-Night-(66-of-312).jpg" width="100" height="150" alt="" /> </a>

    You do know how wrong it is to make a web page that is nothing but images, right? It's on the list of the 10 worst mistakes you can make for sure.
    Anyhow, look at this page -
    http://www.murraytestsite.com/denver.html
    I have outlined every image on that page with a 1px red border.  There is no unwanted white space being added to those images.  If there were you would never see the menu button images that close together.  I have also put a 1px green border on the left of the container div.  Note that the images are snug against that green border.

  • Why is there no white iPhone 3GS?

    Apple has a white iPhone 4S, they even kept the white iPhone 4 around. This begs the question of why doesn't Apple reserect the white iPhone 3GS? Adding a white iPhone 3GS could add additional profits for Apple.

    We're users here Matrix, and we would have absoultely no idea why Apple would or wouldn't resurrect the withe iPhone 3GS.  Speculation is prohibited by the Terms of Use of this forum.

  • Why is there a white strip down the side of the screen on my iPad Mini, and how do I fix it?

    I got back from class today and there is a strip avbout an inch and a half wide on my screen that is white. you can see through the white and you can touch the area and it still works. Also, on the right side of the strip there are a lot of multi colored lines that I cannot see through, but I can also touch that area and get the appropriate response.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    If that doesn't help I suspect there is a hardware problem with the iPad. Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • Why is there extra white space after exporting to JPEG?

    After exporting an *.ai file to jpeg using  150 ppi and 5 for compression, I have extra white space below the artwork. This has happened in two files after exporting.

    Urthie,
    What about the Artboard, is that aligned to the Pixel Grid (it is if the size is a whole number of points/pixels and one corner is at X=Y=0 or another set of integer values, otherwise not)?
    Edit: Cross posting.
    Congratulations, some things are difficult to spot (and guess for others); your finding the solution is the best happy ending.

    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
