Anyway to get trial A3 to convert A2 library before purchasing?

I ordered the upgrade version of Aperture 3 from Apple the minute it was released and chose standard shipping...big mistake. Five days later, my upgrade is sitting 5 hours south of here in Orlando (makes no sense) and now won't be delivered until Tuesday (Monday is President's Day). I would have just purchased the upgrade through the trial download, but I got a discount by ordering the physical copy with my NAPP membership.
I had hoped to have it by the weekend to have ample time to convert everything over and troubleshoot, if necessary. So, now I am thinking about installing the trial and seeing if I can't somehow get it to convert my A2 library. I've read on other boards where some people are having success by restoring a vault backup of their A2 library or going to File>Import>Library/Project, and Aperture 3 trial will supposedly make a copy of my Aperture 2 Library and upgrade it.
If I'm successful, I assume I can just input my A3 serial when it finally arrives to remove the trial status. Has anybody tried this?

Susan,
yes, I'm still on the Trial with no serial number.
I just wanted to see how Aperture 3 will handle my 30k referenced photos. And since I could not convert my Ap2 library with Ap3 trial, I decided to just import my Ap2 library. This worked nicely although it took a while.
Afterwards I had to do some additional actions (please excuse if not correctly translated from my german Ap3 version!):
- Reprocess Masters (to get the greyed out brushes to work)
- Deleted and re-created my previews (other settings to reduce my lib size)
The second action was also required to let the photos show up in iTunes to be synched with my iPhone
In my opinion this brought me to similar results as having my Ap2 lib converted. Got all projects and photos and Intelligent Albums in perfect conditions and with no loss (I think).
Some hints:
- Make a copy of your Ap2 lib.
- Open that copy by dragging it on the Ap2 program icon.
- Delete ALL of your previews!
Importing previews massively increased the time for the import and I had to delete and re-create them afterwards after re-processing masters due to the Brushes/iTunes/iPhone issues.
But ... I regret that I did play around with Faces then. This did eat all my 8 GB memory and crashed several "hundred" times and made starting up Ap3 a good chance for a coffee. Or two. Or three...
I switched Faces off again and am happy now with my Ap3 trial and all my pics imported.
Good luck and have fun testing!
I'm REALLY amazed by especially the new brushes in Ap3 and DON'T want to work with Ap2 again

HT204476 is there anyway to get rid of the old iPhoto Library? It defeats the purpose of having a new software if I have to keep the remnants of the older one.

Where are the masters actually stored upon conversion from Aperture to Photos? Photos?
The master files are stored on your drive, but they are not actually stored "in" any folder. Folders are really just special files that store various bits of information about the files associated with that folder, including links to where they actually are stored. That's why you can "move" a file from one folder to another very quickly: all that you really are doing is moving the link & other info from one folder to the other folder, while the file itself stays where it was.
Because of this, it is possible for more than one folder to link to the same file -- in the Finder it looks just like there are two copies of the file, one in each folder, but there really is just the one copy. From the description in the Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries doc, it looks like that's what happens when you import your iPhoto library into Photos -- both the old iPhoto Library "file" (which actually is a set of folders & subfolders of files) & the Photos Library (also consisting of folders & files) contain links to the master files, but like the Apple doc says, there really is just one set of master files being stored.
This is very similar to the way Time Machine backups look like they have multiple copies of the same unique file, one in each time-stamped backup folder, but there really is only one copy on the Time Machine drive. My guess is Apple is using hard links for this, which means the actual master files will not be deleted from the file system as long as at least one link remains to each of them.
So you should be safe in deleting the old iPhotos Library once you are absolutely sure you don't need it, but to be sure, if it was me I would make a backup just in case, or better yet just leave it alone.

Update gets terminated when we convert planned order to purchase requisitio

Hi All,
I am facing a problem when I am converting a planned order generated after MRP run into a purchase requisition.
My MRP settings are .
Strategy is 10
Procurement type F.
When I convert my planned order into Purchase requisition with MD14 the system gives me a Purchase requisition number , but as soon as I press enter after that I get a message:
"Express Document: Update was terminated , received from author my name".
Now when I check the PR number the PR number generated above does not exist in the system. Please tell me where can i check the same.

Hi
Check the PR number range, whether the PR number range is created or not
Go to OMDT t.code and check the PR accounted assignment for your plant.
If the planned order created through PIR the account assignment must be U
If the Planned order created from through the sales order the account assignment must be E or C.
try this
Thanks

Is there anyway to get iTunes to use a remote library on my network that requires a login/password?

I'm currently pointing iTunes at a library on my home server running WHS2011 but every time I open iTunes it can't find the library. This is presumably because the server requires you login. I can readd the library each time when I put in the username/password and everything works fine. However this is inefficient and annoying so I'd love to know if there is any way to get iTunes to store the creditials. Will iTunes understand adding the username/password at the end of the library location i.e. \\server\music@username:password
Thanks,
och29

Very hard to do, but not impossible. Depends on what setup you have at home and what data you want
Windows or Mac?
Calendar, Contacts, Music and content only, or data from apps as well

Need to convert music videos that are tagged as "Movies" and re-rag them as "Music Videos" to get them out of my movies library and into the Music Video folder. Likewise, I have some educational videos that belong in "Podcasts." Help?

Select/highlight the ones that you want to change in your iTunes library, do Get-Info (control-I) and change their Media Kind on their Options tab to 'Music Video' - and then similarly for the podcasts.

I tried the Aperature trial and liked it, but did not purchase it when the trial ended. A few weeks later, i purchased snow lepord and purchased aperture via the app store. I have had not been able to use it since. Each time i open it , afer a few seconds i get the spinning wheel of death and Aperture is frozen. I have to force quit Aperture to shot down mycomputer. I have re-installed Aperture 3 times with th e same result. I have iphoto on my computer as well is this causing the problem? I want my money back!!! Can anyone help?

You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.

Is there anyway to get an App Tab to stay when I close the program then reopen it?...they always disappear when I open a new window etc.
And I thought the whole point of an App Tab was to always have those tabs there no matter what window is open all the time period.
It's a minor complaint but I would really appreciate the option to permanently have them there.

I thought that app tabs would be more persistent, like pinning programs to the taskbar in Windows, but this is not the case.
Instead, once you close a Firefox window, all its tabs and app tabs are lost.
Essentially, this means that the close button in the upper-left corner of a Firefox window is now a "kill all open tabs and loose all App Tabs without warning++ " button. That is not cool.
I realize that "Firefox > Quit Firefox" behaves as intended, but many people use the more obvious red close button instead of the menu to close windows on a Mac. And it is easy to forget that the red button is now also an app-tab-death button. I've lost my app tabs many times to this issue. It is an unforgiving user interface decision which hampers the usability of app tabs. Why should I go through the extra clicks of setting up app tabs if I can loose them so easily?
Ideally, App Tabs could be saved separately from the currently open windows (perhaps create an option to save then to a special Tab Group that opens on startup?). App tabs would be exceedingly useful to me if they weren't so easy to loose.
On that note, saving Tab Groups would also be a useful functionality.
++ You will get a "closing multiple tabs" warning if you have only one window open, and that one window has multiple non-app tabs open, and you have enabled the warning in Preferences. But this too unreliable to help prevent the loss of app tabs.

Connect the iPod to your syncing computer and restore it via iTunes. However, if iTunes asks for the unknown passcode you need to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod from backup. For recovey mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
"If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone and iPod touch software."

Is there anyway to get a number of my authorizations back?

My Hard drive was getting wiped out every week or so and I have had to reformat 3 to 4 times for the past month. Is there anyway to get my number of authorizations back? I think that this is kind of lame. My computer gets hosed, my ITunes get wiped, the new songs I bought wont fit on my IPod and those get wiped out as well and I cant get those back. Now soon I wont be able to play any of the ITunes music I bought on my Ipod if there is no way of fixing this.

You can use these instructions to reset your authorizations, but after using the option, you won't be able to use it again for a year. You should try to find out why you need to reformat your hard disk, and if possible, fix whatever is causing your issue.

HT1727 My old computer died before i could put my new itunes purchases on it. Is there anyway to get them to my new computer? The hard drive somehow fried and is of no use.

I had just purchased like $30 worth of new songs and my old computer. two days later it died on me before i could upload them onto my ipod touch. i tired to get geek squad at best buy to transfer all of my music from my old computer to the new one but they said it could not be done since i somehow fried the hard drive. so i was wondering if there is anyway to get at least my newly purchased songs back? i got my old purchased songs off of the ipod i just want the new ones.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your comptuer for this very reason.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
