Aperture 2.1.4 endless loading after battery failure.

I fell so sick. I just started a project to consolidate all my aperature libraries into one library on a new 1TB drive on my macbook pro. I was consolidating from 2 external drives. And incredibly stupidly, after copying the contents of those other two drives, I deleted them before my time machine had backed up the library on the new drive. Then while I was organizing all the albums in the new library, my computer did a hard shut down. Instead of going to sleep when the battery was low, the computer completely shut down when I it said it was at about 10% battery remaining. When I restarted the computer and reopened aperture, it shows all my projects and albums, but it just gives an endless "loading" message, and no photos in the library ever appear. When I try to "Quit Aperture" the program stops responding. Is there anything I can do to repair the library... or did I just lose six years worth of photos? Please tell me there is something I can do!

Thank you so much for the suggestions. I also was cautious about adding anything to the drives I stupidly erased before trying to recover the deleted files. The good news is that I used the free version of Disk Drill to see what was recoverable on the drive. After seeing that better than 11,000 .CR2 files were found, I went ahead and bought the product and it has so far recovered 2,600 of them and has another 4 hours of work to go. The bad news is that they are just the .cr2 files. Since the aperature 'library' is just a sort of smart file, I can't simply recover it. I don't think I'll be able to put everything back together. So hundreds of hours of processing will be lost, but the raw files will, at least, still be accessible. Once I've recovered everything I can from this drive, then I will follow the advice of LeonieDF and copy the damaged library to that drive and attempt the repair.
That brings up another point. When I use "Show packet contents" on the damaged library, I can see all the individual .approject project packets inside. Is it possible to import those projects into another library, assuming that the 3 steps of attempting to repair the disk, attempting to repair the library, and attempting to rebuild the library all fail?
Thanks again for being so helpful. I felt so sick, until I realized that the aperture library could be opened and the files inside accessed. Worst case scenario is that I lose hundreds of hours of editing and processing, but that is a lot better than losing almost seven years worth of photos.

OS X doesn't load after battery failure

Hi!
I have a mid 2009 MacBook Pro and my battery is almost dead, today I forgot to connect my Mac to the plug and the Mac just shut down due lack of battery (i don't get my warning anymore). When I tried to boot again, it gets stuck with the Apple logo and the spinning wheel
What I've tried so far:
> boot with partition recovery and fix disk and permissions
> reset of PRAM and NVRAM
> tried to boot with safe mode
None if this worked! not even the safe mode. I don't want to install everything again, though I have backups on my time capsule and I am safe on what regards data.
what else can I do before I go with the install?

Hi!
I managed to fix it, I had to install OS X through partition recovery and it worked. Now I have some libraries corrupted like aperture, but I am rebuilding it just right now. All should be fine now.
About the battery, no, it isn't recharging okay. Nowadays I can't last with battery for more than 40 minutes, I'll have to replace my battery soon...

Endless loading after trying to update Adobe Exchange in Photoshop CC

Hi,
When I open Window > Extensions > Adobe Exchange, I cannot use it becouse it asks me to update. When I click yes it starts downloading and installing and popups a dialogue box saying "Adobe Extension Manager is required to install this extension. Do you want to launch Extension Manager now?".
If I click yes, there appears an endlessly spinning circle in the Adobe Exchange Window. And that's it.
All CC programs are up to date. The Adobe Extension Manager is installed and can be opened manually from the start menu.
I did the same procedure in Fireworks without any problem.
Can anyone please tell me what to do so I can install plugins in Photoshop?
Thanks in Advance,
Roeland

Screen dim after battery failure

after my battery ran down and unit shut off, my screen is so dim upon startup that i can hardly read it. the brightness control is not helping. any suggestions? (the battery has been in need of replacement for a while) thanks

it could be that you have the auto brightness thing on? you may be near a bright light and have the auto brightness feature in the brightness settings turned on. that feature is ******** IMO

Aperture 2.1.4 update will not load after Snow Leopard update

Has any one found the fix for aperture 2.1.4 update not loading after the installation of Snow Leopard. I to am also getting the alert "aperture 2.0 or later is required to install the update". I installed my copy of aperture 2.1 using the installer with no problems so the program is in the correct location. I've seen the posts related to this problem and it does not seem a fix has been found.

Just ran into this myself. I did check to see if there was a preference to delete under ~/Library/Preferences and one is not created since 2.1 is never actually launched. 2.1 is sitting in the root of Applications and hasn't been renamed, but the 2.1.4 update just doesn't detect that it is there and just gives the alert "Aperture 2.0 or later is required to install this update."

MBP 2010 13'' completely freezing when loading from sleep after battery drain

Hi all,
Ever since upgrading do Mountain Lion, everytime my MBP 2010 13'' goes to sleep after battery drainage, it freezes in the last "dash" of the waking up process. Furthermore I noticed that the background during wake up is not my dimmed desktop anymore as it used to be on Lion, it is the Apple logo on a white background (similar to Power up screen). I experience no other freezing stated by the community that are attributed to ML, iTunes or Safari, only this one when recovering from sleep. This last time I waited a couple of hours before power down, only resulting in abnormal heating. Already tried fully charge, fully recharge, reboot, cmd+opt+p+r, ... Anyone has this? Is it a known problem being somehow addressed by Apple? Thanks in advance!

So can anyone tell me how can I open an issue on this for Apple? Thanks.

SD card fails to import - generates endless "Loading Assets" routine.

I seem to have a dodgy 8GB SD card, although it functions in the camera (Canon SX30), and I can manually transfer the photos into Aperture 3.2.1. Attempting to use the Import functions in Aperture result in zero activity apart from at lower left of the Aperture window, where the spinning paddlewheel endlessly spins while Aperture is equally endlessly "Loading Assets".
On the first occasion this happened, after a day or two elapsed the message popped up telling me "not to be a naughty boy and properly eject the media" (although I rarely lapse in that regard). After ackowledging same, Aperture appeared to have resumed normal operations.
At the second probing attempt to import from this card,the malfunction resumed, and I have reformatted the card in the camera.
My quetion is: "Is the any way I can break the loop?"
As I view the situation, force quitting is not required because both iMac and Aperture are otherwise working fine.

It's been a while since you posted this question. I read in another post that it had to do with photos deleted on the SD-card. Once you 'Empty Trash' for the SD-card, the problem should disappear. At least that was what happened in my case.

Endless Loading...

I have a G5 2.0 DP, 3 Gig RAM, ATI Radeon X800 XT (256 Meg), Plenty of drive space and only Aperture running. My camera is a D2X so my raw files are NEF 19Mb.
Some shots get into the endless loading loop. Even restarting the program does not always solve the problem. I am not a Pro, but even as an amateur I cant accept this as useable software. Can anyone solve this for me?
G5 DP 2.0 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

Lots of folks have Aperture running well on lesser boxes than yours. You have a bad installation and/or setup.
First verify that your RAM is fully functional. Flaky RAM can cause many different issues.
Then try deleting Aperture; Repair Permissions; download and install the latest Mac OS updates; Repair Permissions; re-install Aperture; Repair Permissions.
Note that failure to Repair Permissions immediately before and immediately after every software install can be quite important.
Good luck.

My iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode after battery change?

my iphone 5 is stuck in recovery mode after battery change, I decided to change my faulty iphone 5 battery as i was out of warrenty, I managed to chance the battery with no problems (I Think), when i put the phone back together and tried to power on with the power button, nothing happened.! i connected to itunes and it powered on, displaying the connect to itunes screen (recovery mode) all was going well, the phone was restoring, the image of the phone restoring and loading up was displayed on the screen, when it finished it restarted but to show the connect to itunes screen again, it is stuck in the recovery loop. i tried the steps with holding the power and home button etc, none worked.! now when i try to restore, it extracts software but then, ' the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured (3194)' comes up, any ideas out there???? and Happy Christmas to Everyone ,

Hello Andyoneill9,
It sounds like you are trying to restore your phone but keep getting an errror message 3194. I want to recommend the troubleshooting steps from this article named:
Error 3194 or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"

Resolution
Important: If you see one of these messages and need help updating or restoring your iOS device, Install the latest version of iTunes and try to update or restore again. After that, follow these steps if you need more help.
Check your "hosts" file
After you've updated iTunes to the latest version, you can check the hosts file to be sure your computer can contact the update server. Use the numbered steps below if you’re on a Mac.
If you’re using a Windows computer, follow steps in this Microsoft support article, noting that resetting the hosts file will affect software services that rely on hosts file redirects. If you're using Windows on a business computer, consult your IT department to be sure applications will still work correctly after resetting the hosts file.
In the Finder, choose Applications > Utilities.
Open Terminal.
Enter this command and then press Return:
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
Enter the password you use to sign in to your computer and press Return. You won't see text appear in the Terminal window when you enter the password. Make sure you use a nonblank administrator password.
Terminal will display the hosts file. Navigate using the arrow keys and look for an entry containing “gs.apple.com”.
Add the # symbol and a space ("# ") to the beginning of the gs.apple.com entry.
Press Control-O to save the file. Then, press Enter when prompted for the filename and Control-X to exit the editor.
Restart your computer.
Try to update or restore your iOS device again.
This is the first troublehsooting step to try, so there are additional things to try if needed you need them.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

I dont recall when I have been more frustrated.... the "loops" I am in on the web for support are endless. After downloading Yosemite on my Mac my CS6 no longer works. On your support web site you state the following for downloading and installing previous versions of apps, such as CS6 " 1. open CC for desktop and go to the apps panel (no link is provided so I explored until I could download a trial version of "application manager" as that was required. When I attempted to open it to download "Previous Versions" I could not. I have my license number, my CS6 will not open in Yosemite and after over 2 hours I am really frustrated.... Rich@

When I go to that link, download and then attempt to install I get the message "Webe encountered the following issues, Installer failed to initialize. Please down load Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem" I then select the link "get adobe support advisor" that takes me to a site that describes a better support link since the one I have been sent to is no longer available. I then go to that site and am told to go to CC for desktop apps, that requires me to download CC... I don't want CC.. just want to have my CS6 PS work again.... so frustrating...

Aperture applying unwanted adjustments when loading an image

Hello,
I'm having a bit of an issue with Aperture and I'm wondering if the community can help me.
My camera is a Canon Eos 600D.
I'm running Aperture 3.4.3 on a Mid 2010 iMac 27", with 8GB of Ram.
Just lately, when I import and load images into Aperture, it seems to be applying unwanted adjustments to the photos just after it completes loading them.
Let me explain further:
I take pictures on the camera. Previewing them on the Canon they look as I would expect, and I'm happy with them.
I insert the SD card from the camera into the Mac, and Aperture previews/shows the thumbnails of my photos, and they look just like they did on the camera.
I import them into a given library.
When viewing the thumbnails of the imported images in the library, they look the same, so I double click one to load it fullscreen. The image appears fullscreen, looking exactly as it did on the camera, and Aperture pops the word 'Loading' at the top of the image.
Them when it finishes 'Loading', it seems to apply some unwanted adjustments to the photo. Mostly it applies a yellow wash to the image, and in some cases, it radically adjusts the levels.
See examples below:
This was what the image looked like after it had loaded:
And this is what it should have looked like (I had to edit it BACK to what it had looked like on the camera).
I should note that once Aperture has seemingly applied these unwanted adjustments, there is no way to undo them - 'Revert to Original' does nothing as as far as Aperture is concerned, this is the original image.
Again, notice what happens when I quick preview an image:
But when I switch out of Quick Preview, these unwanted adjustments are applied:
Please, can anyone help out with this - it's driving me crazy.
Is there a way of seeing what Aperture might be doing/applying behind the scenes? I've checked Preferences but can't see anything obvious.
Many thanks in advance.

Are you shooting raw?
Aperture is not doing any adjustments after import. Probably you have set your camera to do adjustments and you are using in-camera adjustment settings, like D-Lighting. These in-camera adjustments are reflected in the camera generated preview, that you are seeing when you are importing the image. After that, when you are opening the image, Aperture will create its own preview from the naked raw image. And that what you will see in the viewer. This preview shows exactly what your raw image is like, without any adjustments done by the camera. If you want the image processing results from the camera and not the original raw image as recorded by the camera from the sensor, import jpeg and not raw.
See this discussion: TA24505 Why do d600 raw's look totally different than the jpg's that are imported together. When I select a raw, it looks as if it gets adjusted, but I can't figure out why...

Captivate 5.5 Endless Loading Screen

Does anyone know what would cause the Loading Screen to run endlessly and not start a Captivate 5.5 module. It is unusual because the first couple times the module downloads and plays fine, then after a few viewings this Endless Loading Screen problem appears.

This is a known issue with some LMSs and Captivate's Resume Data bookmarking.
Go to LMS Customisation settings and tick the box for Never Send Resume Data. That usually fixes it, but it also means you cannot use LMS bookmarking.

Bug? Aperture 3 asks me to load S/N on start up

Bug? Aperture 3 asks me to load S/N on start up. I have to load Aperture 1 and then Aperture 3 S/N.
Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround. Jo Daniell

Did this happen all of a sudden or after migrating Aperture to a new machine? The serial number cannot be migrated. If you moved Aperture with Migration Assistant, use the installer media to reinstall it and upgrade immediately to the current version using Software update.
And yes, when you upgraded Aperture from earlier versions and bought upgrade serial numbers and not full version serial numbers, you will need to enter all previous version serial numbers. Do you still have them? If not, try this Pro Application Replacement Serial Numbers
when the support site is up again.
If you did not migrate Aperture recently. look at my post here, how to fix the ProAppSystemID file:
This solved my questionRe: does not remember my serial number

My ipod touch was put to load without battery but it does not appear is loading or not What do I do?

my ipod touch was put to load without battery but it does not appear is loading or not What do I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My imac will not load after I enter my password. The only thing I get is the arrow from my mouse on top of a blank white screen. Can anyone tell me what this is? I've restarted and turned off several times. I left it on in this state for 8 hours hoping it would reload and work. No luck.

Hello KCC4ME,
You may try booting your Mac in Safe Boot, as it can resolve many issues that may prevent a successful login.
OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?

If a Safe Boot allows you to successfully log in, you may have issues with one or more login itmes (while the following article is labelled as a Mavericks article, it is viable for earlier versions of the Mac OS, as well).
