Aperture 2.0 All Projects View Organization

Is it really possible that it's not possible to organize the projects in Apertures "All Projects" view, by
name or any other way except the default chronological???

I don't get it. My projects are sorted alphabetically, but I want them by date. I can't find a way to do it, but searching these forums it seems like most people have them by date as the default....

  • All Project Across Organizations List View- Why some projects read only?

    Hello all !
    I sign on as administrator in SSE and on All Project Across Organizations List View :
    Screen: Projects Screen (ePS)
    View: All Project Across Organizations List View
    Business Object: Project
    Applets: Applet[0]: Project List Applet; Applet[1]: Project Entry Applet;
    Business Components: BusComp[0]: Project; BusComp[1]: Project;
    Why some projects are read-only?
    Best regards,
    Lev

    Hi Rebecca,
    This is just a sample project.  I am not the original author of this project.  I just recreated the project, but I have a few problems. 
    1) when I create the project I am not able to retrieve all the rows for that 2nd event unlike the original project.  I cannot figure out why the project crashes when I try to retrieve more than 50-60 rows for the 2nd event.
    problem 2) this project was architected using legacy EF (EF4).  I have to remove all the .tt files in the designer and select "Generate legacy Code" in the edmx file and save.  This is so I can use ObjectContext. 
    Eventually, I want to recreate this sample project using DBContext for the edmx. 
    If you could figure out what the problem is when I replace the service reference in the FullClient, that would be very nice.

  • Missing images in "all projects view" and System Pref- Desktop!

    I was about selecting the image pick for my projects in the Aperture's all projects view to find out that some of my picture are missing.
    I had verify that the image I was looking for is actually in my project and isn't rejected. I even perform a library rebuilt, but still a few of my pictures aren't showing up in this view. Anyone is also having this issue, know why or how I could fix this?
    beside, I also have a similar issue of some pictures not showing up in the System Preferences under Desktop. All my Aperture's project are there, but not all pictures aren't showing up. By the way, the missing pictures there aren't the same as the ones not showing up in the "all projects view".

    The thumbnail you are scrubbing across with the mouse is only 156 pixels wide on the screen. If you have more than 156 images in the Project it'd be pretty complicated to show every single one. As far as I can see the All Projects view is there to give you a quick overview of the Project content, but isn't designed for 'detailed' browsing.
    Find the image you want in it's Project, Right/Control-click and choose 'Make Key Photo'.
    beside, I also have a similar issue of some pictures not showing up in the System Preferences under Desktop. All my Aperture's project are there, but not all pictures aren't showing up. By the way, the missing pictures there aren't the same as the ones not showing up in the "all projects view".
    Only images that have had Previews generated will show up in other applications. Have you made sure that the Previews are up to date?

  • No Way Of Sorting "All Projects" view

    Hi,
    I've noticed something. When you're in All Projects view in Aperture 2, with the tiles similar to the Events view in iPhoto '08, there appears to be NO way of sorting the Projects. In iPhoto, you can sort the Events by name, or date taken, ascending or descending and even manually arrange them. But in Aperture, the Pro app, there are absolutely no options. Your Projects are sorted by date, oldest at the top, newest at the bottom.
    Am I missing something or have Apple really given their Pro app fewer options than iPhoto?

    It's funny when "consumer" features you take for granted (in iPhoto) aren't available in the pro apps (Aperture). There are quite a few things actually that iPhoto seems to do better than Aperture. Fortunately, both apps are made by the same company, so Aperture can freely copy features from iPhoto whenever it wants.

  • All Projects View - reverse order

    Hi,
    I love the "All Projects" view in Aperture 2.0 (it kinda reminds me of iPhoto actually), but I don't like the fact that its sorted with old projects first. Every time I click on it I see my old projects from 3 years ago. Is there a way to sort it like I sort my "all photos" view with newest projects at the top? Usually when I click on "all projects" I want to see the current projects I am working on, not old ones, and it's annoying to have to scroll all the way down.
    thanks,
    -Jackson

    i've asked the exact same question a while back, with no answers yet.

  • All Projects view - Sort Order

    Is there a way of changing the sort order of the All Projects view - either to name order, or custom rather than the way it seems at the moment - time of project creation from oldest to newest?
    Jason

    I am also looking for a way to do this. When you have 300 projects, it's annoying to always have to scroll down to the bottom every time you click into projects view. I wonder if there is a hidden preference or something like that. Can anybody help?

  • Aperture not syncing all projects with ipod

    I've got an Ipod touch 3rd gen and am syncing it with Aperture.  I choose the option to have projects from the last 12 months, but it's not syncing them all.  Seems to be a somewhat random selection, but particularly missing more recent projects.  Any idea why this is happening?

    Hello,
    When you connect your iPod and select in the "Photos" tab what to sync, what do you see?
    Do the projects that do not sync appear in the "Projects and Albums" section and just do not sync, even if you enabled them?
    Or are they not visible at all, even if you set the selector to "selected projects and albums"?
    If they are visible, but do not sync properly,you better ask in the iPod Touch forum, maybe your iPod needs troube shooting, but if not all Aperture projects are showing in the "projects and Albums" section, then check your Aperture Preferences -> Previews: maybe your recent projects need Previews to be build.
    Have you set Aperture to always share previews and to automatically build Previews for new projects?
    Rebuild the Previews for the missing projects by selecting all images in them, ctrl click the selection, hold down the option-key, and select: Generate Previews.
    Quit Aperture.
    If you do not see your new projects in iTunes, even after rebuilding the Previews, you may need to trouble shoot your Aperture Library: Repair the Permission, and if necessary, repair the Library using the "First Aid" as described here:

  • 2.1 sort order on 'all projects'

    I really like the 'all projects' view, it looks like iPhoto 'events' view, which was sorted, as it should be, in alphabetical order. I love Aperture, however I've been waiting for an alphabetical sort to the 'all projects' view so that I can get rid of (or rather stop using) iPhoto. They seem to have added sort with what seems to only have two options, by date, which is horrible if, like me you have downloaded pictures or old digital photos that contain wonky incorrect information from the wild west days of digital photography.
    Any ideas on how to get things to display in 'all projects' like they do in iPhoto 'events'??
    BTW, my projects are all titled in the way they should display. events that I want by date are titled as such, other pictures are grouped in projects such as 'Shorty' (my dog).

    Sorry Grom, no, there is no UI for the kind of sort you are seeking.

  • ALL PROJECTS - CHANGE ORDER

    when viewing at the library with the "All Projects" function, the sort order is by date, showing the oldest first. is there any hidden function that changes this order?
    also, the "Home" and "End" buttons work in projects, folders and albums, however not in the "skimm through" All Projects view.
    having over 100k of photos and thousands of projects, this view is pretty but quite useless unless i can jump to the last projects quickly, or change the sort criteria.

    Yeah, this is stupid isn't it? In All Photos view you have the option of sorting by:
    Image Date
    Rating
    Version Name
    File Name
    Keywords
    File Size
    Orientation
    Pixel Size
    And you can do all of that either Ascending or Descending. However, switch over to All Projects, and you have the option of sorting by, errr, nothing, in neither Ascending nor Descending. This doesn't make any sense, and makes the All Projects view fairly useless.
    What if you want your most recent Projects showing up first, at the top of the grid? Not possible. What if you have lots of Projects with similar names, and you want them all bunched together, sorted by name? Again, not possible.
    I really hope Apple implement this feature soon, in Aperture 2, rather than having to wait for version 3 to come out.

  • IPhoto to Aperture, Events vs. Projects

    Hello, I recently imported my iPhoto library into Aperture and am overall pleased with all that Aperture has to offer. However, there are a couple things that are really frustrating to me that I miss in iPhoto.
    One that I miss is that in iPhoto, when I am inside of an event, when I double click in any gray area it returns me to the All Events page. In Aperture that does not work when I am inside a project. To go back to All Projects view I have to go to the Inspector or to the icon I added to the Toolbar. Please tell me if I am missing something.
    Even more annoying is that in Events view in iPhoto, I could just go to the next event by clicking the forward/back arrows in the upper right corner while inside an event. In Aperture I have to go click on Projects to see all my Projects, then double click on the next project, again, I hope I am missing something.
    Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Projects are physical objects. They hold photos.
    Albums are logical objects (like database "views"). They hold nothing, but can show you various views of photos -- be they in the projects that hold the photos, or in other projects. You can delete albums and photos will not be deleted.

  • Aperture 2 All Projects will not allow viewing individual files

    In the Library/All Projects selection are 4 projects, 3 allow me to click on any image and view it full screen. The 4th will not. Clicking on a picture won't open it, nor can I copy any files from it. How can I fix this? All of my pictures are stored here, over 10,000. And once there was a smart folder called ALL PICTURES in the LIBRARY but it has vanished, How can I put it back?

    I tend to limit the size of each project to around 1,000 images as I notice a performance decrease thereafter. With 10,000 in one project you may have a decent slowdown.
    Can you create a new project and drag pictures from project 4 into it?
    If so divide up your huge project into smaller chunks.
    Have you tried to rebuild the library/consistency check (hold alt as you start up aperture and run the checks in order)?
    To replace the smart album, click on library, new - smart album - then choose, for example, rating is greater than 'unrated'. Then call it unrated or better photos. Again I tend to steer away from this mega folders due to the resultant slowdown.
    Hope this helps

  • "Project view" : cannot organize projects any longer (Aperture 3.4.3)

    "If you organize your projects in folders in the Library inspector, you can group your projects by the folders they reside in" (Aperture 3.4 manual, p. 45, http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Aperture_3_User_Manual.pdf)
    —> doesn't work any longer by me (nor the "by-year organization" of the projects)
    "Year" and "Folder" buttons are ineffective by me (though not greyd)

    We seem to be talking at crosspurposes - with removing the preferences I meant exactly the files you are asking about below - what did you remove instead?
    Couldn't the problem have something to do with :
    - the com.apple.Aperture.plist and com.apple.Aperture.plist.lockfile files in the User/Library/Preferences folder ?
    And to remove the presets in /Library/Application Support/Aperture, look at the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics,
    - the Database folder files in the Aperture Library package (DataModelVersion.plist file for instance) ?
    I do not think, that might help, since repairing and rebuilding the library did not help, and you are having exactly the same problem with other libraries, as you are saying.
    - Same problem from another user account
    That suggests, that removing preferences and presets in your account will be useless.
    How did you test in the different user account? WIth a new Aperture Library and all user settings as the system default setting? If yes, then this looks like a system wide problem.
    Have you installed any Aperture plug-ins that might be interfering? Any haxies, contextual menu items?
    If not, then I'd suggest to reinstall Aperture - I'd start from the original installation media and and upgrade immediately; how to reinstall on different platforms is described here: Aperture 3.4: May quit unexpectedly on launch after updating

  • Need help with Aperture library duplicating all 'Albums' under 'Projects' library

    Fairly new to Aperture but I've tried to search many times for solutions to this issue. 
    Scenario:  In the Library, I have 3 albums under the 'Albums' view at the bottom that I created.  They were never associated with a project so they were always kept down here.  This I believe is normal.  What is not normal is that this morning the same 3 albums started showing up in an Albums folder under one of my projects in the  'Project' view above it.  At first when I clicked on the project it showed the entire library (+20k photos) despite saying only 14 images were in this folder.  I fixed this by moving the 14 photos into a different project with a different name.  But the Albums folder remains.  It is a direct mirror of the albums below (same name, same photos), and when I delete an album from the 'Projects' view it deletes the same album below.  Same thing if I remove a picture from the album above, it does it below.  I have other albums under specific projects that do not show up under 'Albums' view in the Library.  Again I belive this is correct.
    Making this more frustrating is that I can't just simply move or delete the duplicate Albums above and it is under a 'Project' that doesn't make any sense (e.g., under a Project named 'Travel' but all albums are related to 'Birthday Parties').  I tried creating new albums and then deleting the old ones, but then it actually removes the 'Album' section of my library and I don't know how to get it back as I'd still like to keep that functionality.
    I have also repaired and rebuilt the database twice with no improvement.  One other point is that I believe this is officially an iPhoto library, but this version of Aperture and iPhoto supposedly allows for sharing without any issues.  I tried repairing via iPhoto as well, but no luck there.
    Can anyone help or suggest solutions?  Thanks in advance.

    The sections in the Library Inspector have hidden controls to Hided or Show them. The controls will appear, if you hover the mouse close to the right border of the Inspector panel. There you can toggle the visibility of the different sections on and off.
    The whole Subsection (ALBUM in ALL CAPS) is gone, no remant left (so no Hide/Unhide button).  I can hide the PROJECTS, SHARED, RECENT, ETC, but ALBUMS is again gone.
    Just to be better able to understand what is happening in your library:
    At first when I clicked on the project it showed the entire library (+20k photos) despite saying only 14 images were in this folder.
    This looks to me, like your albums were "Smart Albums" and not regular albums.   Regular albums don't change the contents, when you open them for browsing. Or reflect changes in other library items.
    What do the icons of your "albums" look like? Is there a "gears" icon on it? Then your album is a smart album, and I'd try to update the smart settings for the album/
    Nope.  No gears and I've never used a Smart Album.  They were all part of my old iPhoto library but that import was done 2-3 months ago and this issue just started today.  Right now the Album is just a folder under PROJECTS, with each individual Album beneath having icons that look like two photos stacked (i.e., normal albums).  Also, when I click on the main Album's folder it reads 'TopLevelAlbums' as the header on the top of the main section.  When I click on any other project, folder, or individual album it just reads the same name as the header....this was the first clue to me that something was wrong...besides the ALBUM folder having +20k pictures in it.
    Aperture 3.5.1 .  I'm going to try creating the new library and see if it fixes it.  Thanks for the help.

  • CProjects 4.5 Initial view : all projects

    Dear Gurus
    According to you is there a workaround to display in initial view ALL projects ?
    I know that the initial view can be related:
    projects ( but I display only projects in which I am a responsible,
    last used projects and so on..
    is there a possibility to view all projects ?
    is it possibile to create a custom solution?
    according to you , is it possibile to think this?
    Thanks in advance
    Vanessa

    Hi Vanessa,
    You can influence the dashboard content thanks to Business ADd-In: DPR_EVE_DASHBOARD
    In method: CHANGE_ATTRIBUTES, you can add all your projects with a custom code inside.
