Aperture 2.1.3 and iWeb 2009

Hi there,
Can I actually use Aperture and iWeb together to publish to MobileMe? If so, what settings do I need to make to allow them to work together? Previously I have been using iPhoto 2009 to send to iWeb but I can't find a way for Aperture to work with iWeb which I would prefer.
Thanks for any advice. It is much appreciated.
Lynn

Aperture photos should (can) show up in the media browser while you're using iWeb. Just make sure the Aperture Preferences, Previews, "Share previews with iLife and iWork" is enabled. Note that only the preview quality is shared, so make sure you balance speed/storage and quality of your previews in the settings below for your use. A preview quality of 5-medium and 1/2-size are plenty for my use.

Aperture 1.5.3 and iWeb - poor image quality and shuffled Media browser

Hi, I have two questions:
1. I used to use iPhoto 6 together with iWeb 1.1.2, but have since upgraded to Aperture. My Aperture library previews show up nicely in iWeb's media browser, but the quality of the thumbs on the photopage I create, and fullsize images in iWeb's slideshow look really bad and pixelated compared to when I used the exact same images from my iPhoto 6 Library. How can this be? I have set the preview size in Aperture to 1280 x 1280 and quality to 5. Does that have something to do with the poor quality?
2. The Media browser in iWeb completely ignores the dates on the images from the Aperture library, resulting in the images being shuffled completely, making it hard to find the images I want to use. How can that be? Why doesn't it work like when I used iWeb with my iPhoto library?

Aperture exports Events to iPad, iPhoto and iWeb with only first picture

I have an issue with publishing photos to iPad, iPhone and iWeb from Aperture. When I want to publish photos I do find list of all Events in the device like in Aperture Library but each Event contains just the first photo. The remaining photos are absent although I can find them among all the pictures in the Photo Browser. This indicates that the photos have been transferred to the device but for some reason not included in the Events.
In Aperture each Event opens with all the photos contained. Did I miss something in the setting of Aperture or the device?

This problem is still ongoing.... Having synced my entire library to my iPad, not having projects in date order is a real pain - and makes finding a certain project very tedious.
Does anyone have any kind of fix for this yet?
Alexander, in what way did Apple acknowledge this problem?
Thanks,
David

Performance and Usability Problems-Aperture 3.1.3 and 10.7.1

Late 2009 iMac
Quad Core i7
8 GB RAM
512 ATI GPU
Nik Software Complete Collection Plugins—all updated
I’m guessing this is due to memory leaks, but Aperture is crippled with 10.7.1. On my great iMac, Aperture now runs like it did when I ran Aperture 2 on a 2004 PowerBook G4.
With Snow Leopard, I had none of these issues.
With Aperture idle, it uses up to 2 GB real memory and 3 GB virtual memory. With it idle, it generates MBs of page outs and swap used. If I start to use it for adjustments, even minor ones, page outs and swap used increase dramatically. For example, last night after editing and adjusting a project of images, page outs were just under 5 GB. I’ve reverted to the old habit of rebooting to clear page outs and swaps. Last time I had to do this was with the 2004 PowerBook.
While actually using Aperture for edits and adjustments, response to almost any input is slow, with conspicuous delays. Even checking and unchecking an adjustment brick causes a considerable delay between the click and when the change is visible.
Again, with Snow Leopard, Aperture was a bullet with current configuration. I just ordered 8 more GBs of RAM in hopes that this will help until Apple fixes Aperture.
Anyone else having such considerable performance issues with Aperture 3.1.3 and 10.7.1?
Thanks

John-
Actually I do think it is about individual setups. The kinds of complaints expressed in this thread have been going on literally for decades.
Starting with early-days Photoshop then later Aperture I have observed the challenges of heavy graphics apps with hardware/RAM/OSs/app versions. We have always been able to reproduce poor performance, because apps/OSs generally do evolve to be more demanding.
IMO our goal is to help individual setups tweak to achieve non-poor performance while we wait for stronger hardware, or an OS improvement, or an app improvement, or money to buy more RAM, or whatever. IMO it really is an ongoing individual-setup (e.g. last year I was running a 2006 C2D MBP with a max of 3 GB RAM requiring constant tweaking) issue.
Today I run Aperture under 10.6.8 on a 2011 MBP with SSD and 8 GB RAM and it rocks. I would consider 10.6.8 to be one of the tweaks that folks might do if all the other tweaks (like add RAM and run 32-bit) fail to achieve non-poor performance.

Anyone have a web gallery published by Aperture 2 show up in Iweb menu?

Iphoto galleries seem to be work as they should, but I can not get an Aperture 2 gallery to appear in the iweb insert menu.
Wondering if it's just me.
thanks

Hi Chuck
Shoot me down in flames if I am not understanding you, but here is my experience of AP2 and iWeb. Before I publish a web gallery I make sure to select all my target pictures and update the previews. Next I publish the gallery and check it's working. When I open iWeb and click on the media inspector I can see the web gallery when I navigate down through my Aperture entries. Now, this is where we may part company, but like you I cannot see any reference to the gallery in the Insert menu - but all I did was click on the gallery in the media inspector and drag it onto an iWeb page. At this point I got the option to choose a theme for the page and iWeb built it for me using my gallery.
Is this helpful to you guys, or am I so far off the mark it's untrue

Aperture constantly generating previews and thumbnails and detecting faces

After starting Aperture or scrolling in the browser part of the Split View Aperture starts to generat previews and thumbnails and detecting faces, staling all my work in Aperture for a long time. After a while it is done, but start again if I start scrolling a lot in the browser or restarting Aperture. Aperture does not crash but it is it takes forever to work since it stalls everything. I can also se that after working for about ten minutes in Aperture almost all of my memory is gone. After a freshly restarted Mac I have about 13 GB of memory and after about ten minutes of work it is down to a few hundred MB. After closing Aperture I only get back about 8 GB of memory.
I have tried the following:
* Rebuilding thumbnails for all picture
* Force rebuilding previews for all pictures (Holding down the Option key)
* Reprocessed Originals for all pictures
* Repaired permissions
* Repaired database
* Rebuilt database
* Deleted aperture.plist file
All of the above completed without errors, but I still have the same problem. I also tried to un-check “Maintain Previews For Project” and “New projects automatically generate previews” but with no luck (This is off course not a solution but a workaround).
What else can I do?
I hav the following:
- iMac, late 2009
- 16 GB memory
- Aperture 3.5.1 (Had the same problem in Aperture 3.4.5 and possibly even before)

Is Aperture more responsive, if you defer the generation of previews by holding down the Shift-key when launching Aperture?
Feels a bit better but still regenerating previews.
Also, have you checked, if Aperture is more responsive, when you are working with a different Aperture library?
I tried creating a new library in two different ways using all pictures from my project "2010" which I know contains pictures that Aperture keeps regenerating previews from. First I exported the project as a new aperture library, but when I opened that new library it also kept regenerating pictures. Next I exported all originals from that project and imported them in a new aperture library and success. No more regeneration of previews. But I don't think it is a solution because I have over 23 000 pictures in my library and I will loose all adjustments, stacks and faces doing this to the rest of the pictures.
As to running out of memory - there have been reports, that "On Screen Proofing" might be causing this, disable it (from the View menu), if it is turned on, see this post: Re: Aperture 3.5 repeatedly crashes as 'memory full' despite 32GB RAM
"On Screen Proofing" was not on. But to be sure I tried to toggle the menu item but it did not get checked, until I understood that I had to select a Proofing Profile first. After that I selected and unselected "On Screen Proofing", but it did not help.
Do you use any Aperture plug-ins?
I had an old plug-in for exporting to Picasa which I don't think works anymore so I removed it, but it did not help.
Is your Aperture library referenced or managed?
I have a managed library.
And where is it stored?
The Aperture library is stored on my local hard drive in the shared directory. I hade plans to share it with other users on my computer but because of these problems I have not gone forward with those plans yet.

IWeb 2008 or iWeb 2009?

I have iWeb version 3.0.2. Is this iWeb 2008 or iWeb 2009?

This is the fault of Internet Explorer - it must be one of the worst search engines around now and other better ones have come along now such as Safari, Firefox and Google Chrome.
Mostly, PC users have problems because they may not have javascript turned on in their browsers and as so much of iWeb is javascript, then this causes problems. You could put something on your website to the effect that it is best viewed in Safari for PC or Firefox and Google Chrome. This might encourage PC users to download different browsers rather than sticking with IE!

After upgrading to Aperture 3.4.1 (and really since 3.4), aperture becomes unresponsive almost immediately after I open it. It tears through over 1GB of memory within a minute, and I am forced to either force quit or open the terminal and "killall".

How do I fix this issue? I haven't been able to use Aperture or load new photos into Aperture for weeks. Since upgrading to Aperture 3, from Aperture 2; I've noticed that Aperture 3 is a major memory hog. I had to upgrade my unibody macbook to keep up with Aperture, otherwise my whole system become unresponsive when trying to simply look at my photos. I have about 15,000 pictures in my library, but the program is designed to organize large libraries. Why has it been so buggy the past year? Should I just jump ship and go to Lightroom?
Thanks

Matt,
it is normal, that after a crash a library repair is required. Aperture is a database, and if a crash happens, transactions may not be completed, so the library may be left in an inconsitent state. Usually the built-in repair methods can take care of this. But I assume, you have a backup of your Aperture library. If not, now would be the time to create one, just in case.
I doubt, Aperture is causing this crashes - it may be a coincidence; kernel panics quite often are due to an overfull hard disk, incompatible frameworks or kernel extensions, or to failing hardware. Run a hardware check, check the available disk space and file system with disk utility, and try to remember, if you installed anything else lately, that might have added incompatible kernel extensions. Turn off any helper apps, start up items.
Your kernel panic occurs when accessing the graphics card. Sometimes this can be resolved by booting into safe mode, this will disable advanced features and reset the card. Note: Aperture will not run in safe boot mode, see
Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
Browse MacBook forum and Mt. Lion forum, to see, if anybody else has problems with Mt. Lion and your particular Hardware configuration and card.
As a last measure reinstall your MacOS. You may also have a look at Thomas' Tech Corner » Understanding upgrade nightmares

Printing Success with Aperture 1.5.2 and HP Photosmart Pro B9180

With so many "hit-and-miss" posts regarding printing, I thought I'd post my result with Aperture 1.5.2 and my newly-acquired HP Photosmart Pro B9180.
Firstly, I have my monitor calibrated using ColorVision's Spyder Express. It's a cost-effective solution to monitor calibration and what I see on the screen is what I'm seeing in the print. I calibrate weekly.
Secondly, I'm using HP's Advanced Photo Glossy Paper for prints. HP provides the ICC profiles for their papers (and thus far, they seem to be dead-on accurate).
Thirdly, and I believe this is where issues can occur, is to set, via the Print Driver, color management as Application Managed. This bypasses the default of allowing the printer to manage color for you. This allows Aperture to use the ICC profile of the printer and calculate the proper color "conversion".
Finally, via the Apple's support article on optiziming print (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302821) save the customized printer setup for a specified print size, paper, etc.
I have made 20 prints thus far and all have come out satisfactory. The only "tip" I'd make is that I noticed the gamma setting in the print dialogue is ideally set at 1.15. Otherwise, the print seems to be a bit dark.
PowerMac G5 Dual 2GHz Mac OS X (10.4.9) 4 Gigs RAM, CalDigit S2VR Duo 1TB

I just got a B9180 too so thought I would try printing from Aperture. As you suggested I set Gamma to 1.15 - but I still feel the prints are a bit dark. Tried 1.20 but that looked identical to 1.15!

Apple put a new hard drive into my MacBook Pro and updated the system to Maverick. They did not put iPhoto and iWeb on it but I did have it in Lion. Why and what am I supposed to do?

Apple put a new hard drive into my MacBook Pro and updated it from Lion to Maverick. They did not put iPhoto and iWeb on it but I did have it in Lion. They also didn't put Pages, Keynote or Numbers back on it until I argued with them. Of course, I didn't have my data backed up. My hard drive was destroyed when I tried to install the update of Mavericks myself. I should not have to buy iWeb and iPhoto when I already had them. Suggestions?

cwhargrave,
have you tried looking in the App Store, to see if you can redownload iWeb and iPhoto there gratis?
If you haven’t done so already, you should purchase an external hard drive to act as a Time Machine backup destination, so that you’ll have an option to rollback to a working environment if a new OS installation is troublesome.

Aperture 3.4.1 and iPhoto 11 (9.4) in Lion 10.7.5?

I have created quite a mess here, and am not sure what to do about it. I was looking for some photos that were in my iPhoto library and I saw a vault with the same name in Aperture, but none of the photos appeared. The previous versions of Aperture would see iPhoto libraries and open them within Aperture, but this wasn't working. I couldn't seem to share the photos between the apps. So I found that Open Library in Aperture, which I did, and now I cannot get the two libraries separated. It will only open in one or the other application. It is really a mess. Now I can only open the photos in one or the other at one time. The previous workflow between the two apps was seamless. This one not at all.
I also see some old imports of libraries (iPhoto Library (1) , and iPhoto Library) in the Aperture app and there are duplicates of photos, library 1 has all the photos of the earlier library plus more current ones. I am wondering if the name iPhoto Library in an aperture project window is part of the confusion.
Anyway, this new workflow is really confusing if this is the way it is supposed to happen. If it isn't, I need a remedy. If it is, I need some tricks and instructions about what the heck is going on. I don't like this system at all. Apple really seems to have missed it with the upgrades to the two apps.
Any help appreciated...
Thanks
Jeff

Aperture 3.4.1 is sandboxed, and apparently it can no longer use external clients and plug-ins that are not sandboxed. Outlook and Entourage need to be updated to comply with MAcOS 10.7.5 and 10.8.x to work with Aperture 3.4.1.
See this lengthy discussion: Re: Aperture email sharing (Outlook) not working since upgrade to mountain lion
And send feedback Apple - Aperture - Feedback to Apple and Microsoft.

Aperture 2.1.1 and OS X 10.5.5. - Can't create nor update Vaults!

After updating to OS X 10.5.5 and installing the latest RAW file plug-ins update from Apple yesterday, I cannot update my existing Aperture vaults, I get the following error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I deleted both vaults, created new vault, and when I press Update button, it compares empty vault to my library for some 4-5 minutes (why?! It's just empty vault!) and then Aperture shows the same message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I ran Disk Utility - Repair Disk Permissions - no problems. I installed 10.5.5. combo update over the existing system, restarted, and still I cannot create a new vault. The same error message. Any ideas why?
In Console I see two lines from Aperture:
08.9.17 19:28:52 Aperture[336] .sdef error: Operation could not be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 1549.)
08.9.17 19:28:52 Aperture[336] line number: 2
I don't know is it related to this problem or not.

I am having exact same problems. Software update says that I have all the latest updates for system and Aperture (including the latest RAW file plug-ins). I can't update vaults. Every time I try to update, I get the following error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I have deleted all vaults and tried creating new vaults. Aperture will permit the creation of the vault, but when I attempt to update it for the first time, Aperture works away for a while comparing the 'library' to the empty vault and returns the exact same error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I rebooted computer and restarted Aperture holding down the option key. I requested that Aperture perform a 'Consistency Check' and when completed, I restarted Aperture the same way so that I could request that Aperture 'Rebuild Now' all projects. Once both activities had finished, I tired again to create a vault and update it and was able to create the vault, but unable to update it. The same message was returned:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I did notice a change in Aperture's behavior before and after performing the 'Consistency Check'. Before performing the consistency check, Aperture had stopped giving this message upon quitting:
'Updating information for sharing previews'
After the consistency check, Aperture upon quitting would update information for sharing previews.
Is there a fix for this?

Ive lost iphotots and iweb after hard drive failed help

Hi my hard drive failed yesterday and I took it to the apple store who confirmed it had failed. They advised I should purchase a new one, provided me the specs and fit it myself. I've now clearly done that because I'm writing this
However I've reloaded everything back on but i've noticed my iphoto and iweb are missing!!! I really need these apps, I cant remember how I put them on the machine, be it disc or download but clearly ive paid for these app.
Please please help me I really need these apps as I have current workload dependant on having these apps

iPhoto is included with the iLife apps and can be downloaded from the Mac App store or if your Mac is slightly older and came with an earlier version of OS X then Mt Lion then those apps are on the second system install discs that came with your system (Which I suspect it is an older Mac as iWeb is no longer included in the iLife suit of programs).
So dig out your original system discs and use the one marked Applications to reinstall those apps. Then update them from software update.
If for some reason they won't install on Mt Lion then you will need to wipe the drive, Re-Install the original OS X version and the iLife apps then upgrade back to Mt Lion.
EDIT, NOTE: To the OP and DS store.
iWEB Still works on ML as long as it is updated to the newest version. If the Applications disc is new enough it will even install on Mt Lion.

Without more information, speculation is a waste of time. At the least tell us what you do, what the results are, and how that result differs from your expectation. Then tell us what steps you have taken to resolve the issue, and what the results of taking those steps was.
