Aperture 1.5.6 no longer works when using Snow Leopard.  Help!

I never upgraded to Aperture 2. This has prevented me from using RAW files on my Nikon D90 (despite the RAW Compatibility Update, it did not apply to the original Aperture).
Now, to my dismay, Aperture does not work on Snow Leopard. This is just great, because my entire collection of over 20000 photos is stored in the library. While I am aware that the photos are preserved in the Aperture library, I am aware of absolutely no way to easily access them for export now that I have Snow Leopard installed and I'm fearing for my photography collection.
I am not willing to downgrade my OS just for Aperture, but after two serious issues with the original Aperture program, I think I am going to switch over to Lightroom. Aperture's workflow was excellent, but the fact that a copy I paid good money for is being phased out in extreme manners like this, so much so that my photo library is in critical condition, makes me leery of future iterations of the program. I understand something like PowerPCs being phased out with the release of Snow Leopard. That makes a lot of sense, because it's old technology. But I feel like Apple simply ignored people who had the original version of Aperture and only supported the newer version.
I may have to resort to installing Aperture on my friend's laptop that is still running Leopard, exporting all the images, and then importing them into iPhoto in the meantime or something.
Is there any way I can get around doing this? Is there an easier way to access my files in the Aperture Library without going through the program? Does Lightroom have an easy way to import from Aperture? If I bought Aperture 2 instead of Lightroom, would I be able to import Aperture 1's Photo Library right into Aperture 2 and still preserve everything?
I'm really worried. Thank you for reading/responding.

I ran into the same issue as well - I had an old academic version of 1.5 which did not even have an upgrade path to 2.0. What's worse is that there was no way to recover my RAW/master files without rolling back to OSX 10.5. After much frustration and reading Apple's responses in these forums, I decided to try out Adobe Lightroom and I'm liking it a lot now.
I used a 10.5 install with Aperture 1.5.6 in a temporary partition to get the RAW files out. I probably will not spend any more money on Aperture and will pay the extra $ on lightroom as it seems to be more versatile and worth the money. Especially the new integrated export UI is neat.

    Dear Apple friends,
    I have the exact same problem with some apps.
    Even when I try some websites in Safari and Chrome that require loading big chunks of data they crash.
    Today it crashed in two new places. In the notification center and when I opened newstand app I no longer was able to return to the main window and the dock disappeared.
    I have my ipad retina for about three months now but latelly this issue has became more frequent. What should I do?
    Should I update to the latest firmware and do what raymond73 said?
    Is there a fix for this issue?
    Has Apple said anything about this? Because I see that this issue is happening to a lot of people.
    Is it possible to downgrade to iOS 6?
    Is it a firmware problem? That can be fixed in future releases? Or an hardware issue?
    Should I wait or go to the place I bought it and try to get the money back?

  • I upgraded to Lion and then all video clips on for instance Youtube freeze every tenth second to buffer more data. I have a MacBook Pro and never had any problems when using Snow Leopard. Ulf Magnusson, Sweden

    I upgraded to Lion and then all video clips on for instance Youtube freeze every tenth second to buffer more data. I have a MacBook Pro and never had any problems when using Snow Leopard. Has Lion problems with this?

    Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
    This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

  • Keyboard no longer working when using Citrix Receiver and OSX10.9.5

    I use Citrix Receiver and an iMac to connect to my work desktop from home. I have the latest release of Citrix Receiver. This morning I upgraded to OSX 10.9.5 and, after the update, my keyboard was not recognised when using Citrix Receiver. It works fine otherwise. Yesterday I had no problems. Is there something in the new OSX upgrade which interferes with Citrix Receiver? Does anybody know what I need to do to get it working again?

    I had the same problem and found the solution on another discussion board.  You just go to the dock and click on Finder, then click back in the Citrix window and the keyboard works again.  At least for me.

  • AirPlay no longer working reliably on Snow Leopard

    I'm on Mac OS X 10.6.8 with latest patches installed, including iTunes 10.6.3. Mac Mini with 8GB RAM. All components connected to home network via wired Ethernet (no wifi involved). Components use fixed IP addresses.
    I've been using AirPlay with my AVR very reliably for couple months to play music using Home Sharing. I have also ATV as well as AE, which I've used for whole home audio setup. It's awesome and I've been very happy with this setup.
    I've had the system unplugged from about middle of April 2012, and replugged in the middle of July. No changed components, and with no hardware changes in the home network. Since then however, AirPlay no longer works reliably.
    The symtoms are as follows:
    1. I start iTunes, get the AirPlay icon, select the AVR destination, playback works fine
    2. On the AVR, I switch to another audio input (like ATV, or PS3), which obviously makes iTunes to stop playing the music
    3. From this moment on, iTunes is no longer able to play music to _any_ of the AirPlay destinations, i.e. not to AVR, not to ATV and neither to AE - if I hit Play button in iTunes, no error is displayed, just the song position in iTunes doesn't advance, and no sounds comes out of the remote speakers; if I switch to local (computer) speakers, it works
    If I Quit iTunes and start it again, it again works, until AVR source switch. For sure, this makes for mighty hassle to the extend it's barely usable at all.
    The problem can be triggered any time, happens always - there is no difference, if the triggering sequence is run after several minutes or after several hours of playback.
    I've tried several obvious steps to fix this, but none has made any difference:
    1. before switching audio source on AVR, stopped iTunes playback, either directly in iTunes or via Remote app
    2. networksetup -setv6off hint from forums, for WiFi and Ethernet
    3. tried downgrade of iTunes to 10.6.1 via Time Machine
    4. switched off firewall on Mac Mini
    5. connected Mac Mini with the AVR directly via known working cable (ruling out switches and any cable faults in between), also tried to connect them to the same network switch
    I've also tried to run tcpdump on the ethernet interface when the iTunes is in the non-working state, and indeed there is no network traffic between mac mini and the AVR. Apparently iTunes doesn't even attempt to send the data to the AirPlay device. I see that there are several multicast packets sent by the AVR during this time, apparently some kind of Bonjour stuff.
    Any hint what might be wrong, or another idea how to fix this? Was there any known-buggy AirPlay update to Mac OS X during the period?

    Okay, so tried one more thing and found the culprit - the problem no longer appears after I switch off 'Allow iTunes audio control from remote speakers' preference in iTunes. Apparently this problem happens due to an interaction between the AVR (Denon AVR-1912) and iTunes.

  • Workspace no longer works when using flex application as Form

    Hi,
    I've got a problem in the Workspace with one of my process that use a flex application as form.
    I used the tutorial "Creating Flex® Applications Enabled for LiveCycle® Workspace ES" to create the flex application and it works well in the workspace (displays ok and datas well passed to the process).
    The task completes well because my process fires the next step with all the datas filled in the task.
    But after the end of the task (when I click on the submit button of the form) the Workspace is no longer usable.
    I can no longer access preferences, messages, starting process panel... when a click on an item in any Menu nothing occurs. Everything is blocked.
    I must restart the Workspace to be able to use it again.
    Can someone help me please?

    I think I have it solved, will check...
    When modifying, the P3 in the go url was left out. what was P2 should be P3 and the correct P2 would have the table.column name.

    So basically if a iphone has a fault after the 1 year warranty period is over, there is nothing the consumer can do but purchase a new phone??
    Pretty much. Except that Apple will replace it for a fixed fee that is far less than the cost of a new phone. In the US the replacement cost for an iPhone 4 is $149. It is comparable in the UK. Unless you can prove that the fault was present at the time of purchase. A switch wearing out would probably be considered normal wear and tear, not a "fault".

    Hi
    It shows just 4 always as an option in the "open with" lsit. Also I haven't downloaded any apps for a while so why would it start now?
    Do you know how I can estabilsh how many apps are counting toward this 10 and what they are?

  • Just upgraded to Mavericks and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported.  Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks?

    Just upgraded my 2009 iMac (3.06 Ghz, core 2 duo $GB 1067 Mhz DDR3) to Mavericks OSX 10.9.5 and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported.  Printer says the software was improperly installed. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks or do I need to go back to Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard? 

    It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
    I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):
    http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
    Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

  • How can we get ADFSecurity work when used in OC4J, OID and OAM?

    I am getting error in http server log "mod_oc4j: Response status=499 and reason=Oracle SSO, but failed to get mod_osso global context."
    But I am not using Oracle SSO and my client doesn't want to use it either, I am using OAM SSO(CoreIDSSO) in my configuration. Please read the details below.
    I am using ADFSecurity in an app that is protected by OAM. To migrate ADFSecurity permissions from
    system-jazn-data.xml to OID, I used JAZNMigrationTool to populate OID with Grantees and Permissions. OAM gives login page, and authentication works fine.
    But ADFSecurity is not working. ADFComponent Delete button is enabled even for roles that dont have permissions for the iterator delete.
    - The app works fine when I use without OAM. ADF Security permissions work fine.
    - The app works fine when used with OAM, but with ADFSecurity disabled (enforce=false).
    - When I enforce ADFSecurity alongwith OAM, ADFSecurity is not working.
    In the doc "Oracle Containers for J2EE Security Guide b28957", there is a mention of use of CoreIDPrincipal for permissions. Our OID Permissions entries show
    LDAPRealmRole for attribute orcljaznprincipal. I am not sure if this could be the reason.
    We have configured AccessServerSDK for the SOA instance and have policy for the urls in the policy manager. We have entries in orion-application.xml, orion-web.xml and system-jazn-data.xml as per the documentations.
    How can we get ADFSecurity work when used with OID and OAM?

    Have you been able to successfully integrate OAS with OAM & OID? We have similar requriement and so far we have not been able to get it working.
    We have application specific roles which we map to OID roles using orion-application.xml.
    Any pointers to achieve this would be greatly appreciated.
    thanks,
