Aperture 2 - Recent import folder list

Hi there,
Just a quick question Regarding Aperture 2 - Is there any way to delete the list of recently imported folders in the Import Window? Just getting rather long and besides most of the ref folders aren't used anymore! Can't seem to find anything in the user guide so putting the question out there. Also iPhoto has a nice feature in which the 'roll' was divided into dates/names to scroll though while viewing Photos rather than in Events - Aperture doesn't seem to do that in the same way or I'm I missing something....
Hope you can help me out?

Don't have 2 but if it's the same as 3 then no you can't clear it without going into the, I believe it was, the preferences plist file.

  • Can the "Import: Store Files" folder list be edited?

    I've searched both this forum and the web for an answer; nothing has turned up.
    I'm looking for a way to edit the folder list when you "Import" & click on:
    - Store Files - In their current location
    I have renamed and reorganized a number of folders on my hard drive, so the old folders no longer exit. They show up as grayed-out in this list. I would like to clean this up, if there is a way to edit a text list somewhere without messing up the program.
    I have Aperture 2.1.4.
    thanks

    As noted above, the SSIS Wizard may not be the best choice.
    I suggest you build an SSIS package.  Not only for the initial load, but for the incremental refresh as well.
    SSIS has data cleansing, full error control and logging facilities.

  • Recently imported photos not being filed in LightroomMasters Folder...

    I'm a Mac user and a newbie to Lightroom having recently imported my Aperture Library to that application. Following the import from Aperture, a folder was created in my Pictures Folder called LightroomMasters and all the masters went into that folder in subfolders...year and date. I believe this is the correct default process. However, images I have imported since then have gone into the selected Collections OK but the later masters are not in Pictures/LightroomMasters, they have been put in dated folders but these are on the top level in Pictures. Hence looking at the content of my Pictures Folder I have dated folders (containing these later imports) and further down in Pictures I have the LightroomMasters Folder which has not been added to since the original Aperture import. I guess if I manually move these "outside" folders into the LightroomMasters folder, Lightroom Catalogue will then not be able to find them.  Am I missing something here? Any suggestions

    You can manually move the folders from within LR. Simply drag and drop the folder to its new location. This will move the files on your drive.
    If you move the folders with finder, you will have to tell LR where folder is now located. It will show a '?' on the folders it can not find. Right click a folder and select to update its location.
    NEVER do re-import!

  • Aperture Does Not Import Videos using IMPORT FOLDER AS PROJECTS

    SOLVED - Aperture 3.2.1 does not import videos using "Import Folder as Project"
    After 2 days of trying to figure this out (actually around 2 hours total) I've finally managed to import all my photos & videos last year. 200 Gigs 54,000 files. First few tries resulted with referenced photos only, no videos. I had no luck with Google, even tried moving a couple of .plist as mentioned from this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/11188017?messageID=11188017#11188017 - this worked for some but not for me. Some issues were solved by NOT selecting "Raw Only", this will cause Aperture to skip your videos.
    Thank you to these people who took time to share. In return I am posting my micro contribution to the Aperture Community. FILE > SWITCH TO LIBRARY > then create a new library. You should be able to import your photos with videos in folders.
    I hope this gets into Google soon. :-)

    , I see only the file, where these photos are, not the photo names or thumbs inside the file (Aperture import path).
    You mean in the Aperture Import panel the folder, where the jpegs should be, is empty?
    Then you may have excluded jpegs from import in your "Import Settings".
    Check the above settings in the "Import Settings" options in the "Import Window". I.e-make sure the Raw+Jpeg Pairs option is set to "Both", even if you do not import raws.
    After reassembled all the programs to a new hard drive in Mac Pro
    Is this new Harddrive your system volume? And are the jpegs you wat to import located on this drive? Or are the on another external volume? If yes, how is this volume formatted?
    Have you checked the permissions and ownership of the jpegs?

  • Cannot access Recent/Missed Calls List iPhone 3GS

    Hello,
    Recently, without any known change to the phone (no update, firmware, change setting, etc.) I cannot access the Recents folder (list of all calls) on the phone. This is the folder at the bottom of the phone screen when you access the phone and is listed along with the Favorites, Contacts, Keypad and Voicemail folders. Also, the phone will still display the incoming call while its ringing, but it wont show the missed call callout box you normally see when you miss calls. Caller ID still works and all other phone features work normal. Strangely enough, the little red numbers that display how many unviewed calls are in that folder still works and keeps on adding up
    When I try and access that folder, I get a little screen flash and the phone goes back to the desktop screen.
    This is what I have tried:
    -Upgraded software to 4.3.4 The upgrade was successful. Did not fix problem.
    -Backed up the phone and did a restore through itunes. Did not fix problem.
    - Did a phone reset through the phone settings. Did not fix problem.
    I don't know what else to do. This feature is very imporant to me.
    Thanks for any help.

  • I accidently click on ''Import the list'' but now all the music have  an exclamation point I think they are all in Musique.txt on the desk... How can i take back these music on my library? I tried : Import the list and take Music.txt , but it do not work

    I accidently click on ''Import the list'' but now all the music have  an exclamation point I think they are all in Musique.txt on the desk... How can i take back these music on my library? I tried : Import the list and take Music.txt , but it do not work

    Ok, I had a glitch, forced to restart, and lost my train of thought.
    Reinstalling iTunes should fix the major issue that might have gone wrong, perhaps your explaination points will disappear and everything will be peachy again.
    But if they don't, you can open the XML file in iTunes Folder using a Text edit program to see what the common pathname is to the iTunes Music folder or where your content is located.
    If you moved the itunes folder, it needs to go back.
    I can't  download iTunes to my Vista virtual machine to test it out right now because iTunes is down, so I can't verify the pathname, perhaps your issue and the iTunes being down are related somehow?
    You don't want to import all your music again, but it's a option, but you lose all your playlists, that's what I'm trying to recover.
    If oyu don't have a whole lot of playlists, then simply select all the explaimation point music and delete, select File from the menu and import your itunes folder again.

  • How do I get multiple folders to appear again on an external drive after I accidentally did a 'remove' from my folder list?

    Help please!
    I accidentally did a right click remove of my folders on an external drive. The external drive shows in my folders list, but none of the folders that are still on it.
    The photos are still in the folders on the drive and in their folders.  I tried an import to make the folders appear, and LR sees all the photos as existing in the catalog, so it knows about the photos.  And LR does not re-import them.
    Just want to have the folders show up again in my folder list on the left.
    Anyone know how to fix this error I made? Thank you.

    For anyone interested, I had to add a folder to my external drive, then right click it and select SHOW PARENT FOLDER.  Thank you ADOBE SUPPORT, I am so relieved, feel stupid, but relieved.

  • How do i get itunes 11 import folder option to work?

    i recently installed itunes 11. i have my music files located in a a separate directory. when i try to "import folder", i select an album folder and nothing happens. am i doing something wrong or is there a fix for this? thanks in advance:)

    A little more detail may help...
    I assume you've enabled the iTunes menu bar and you're using the command File > Add Folder to Library... then selecting a folder that contains media. Further that this media is not already included in the library?
    Did you apply the permissions fix to both your iTunes library folder and the media folder on the external drive that you are trying to import?
    Can you add anything to iTunes? E.g. copy a file to the desktop and then drag & drop that on to iTunes. Or use the Automatically Add to iTunes folder.
    What settings do you have under Edit > Preferences > Advanced for the media folder, and the Keep... & Copy... options?

  • How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.

    How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library?  It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.  I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one.  They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device."  I hadn't touched the camera.  The message came by itself.  I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit.  Opening it back up, the pictures were gone.  Can somebody help me? 

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • How do I see my pictures that are in my aperture library in finder?  I would like I be able to select  photos in finder when I am making photo books online without having to export them first from aperture jinto a new folder. Is there any way to view

    How do I see my pictures that are in my aperture library in finder?  I would like I be able to select  photos in finder when I am making photo books online without having to export them first from aperture jinto a new folder. Is there any way to view and download my pictures directly from finder?

Is there any way to view and download my pictures directly from finder?  [Emphasis added.]
    The digitization of data has introduced a complexity to our interactions with it that we continue to struggle with.  "Picture" and "Photo" now mean different things in different contexts.  In this case (and in general) defining our terms clearly is the first step towards understanding what we are trying to do.  Understanding is the path that allows us to do it.
    All pedantic, but please stick with me here  .
    You record a set of instantaneous data with a camera.
    That data is processed by your camera and saved to a file.
    The file format is usually either RAW or JPG.
    You transfer those files to your computer, and you import them into the program Aperture (often in one operation).
    From each camera-file imported, Aperture creates a record in its database (called, imho unhelpfully, a Library) and an Image that you see in the Aperture Browser and Viewer.
    Aperture links the Image and the imported file.
    The imported file is called, within Aperture, an Original.
    Every Image has an Original.
    The Image is not the Original.  The Image is what you see in Aperture.
    The Original is a file that is stored on your computer.
    You can make changes to an Image.
    Aperture calls these changes Adjustments.
    Adjustments are saved to another file attached to the record in the database.  Let's call this file the Changes File.
    Aperture uses these two files attached to the record in the database to create the Image.
    Image = Original + Changes File.
    The Image is not a file.
    Because the Image is not a file, it cannot be shared with other programs.  It exists only inside of Aperture.
    In order to share an Image with another program, you must first create a file of the Image.
    You do this by exporting Images ("File ▹ Export ▹ Version" is the command in Aperture; should be, imho, "File ▹ Export ▹ Image").
    You may ask, "Why all the complexity?  Why doesn't Aperture save Images as files?"  The answer is simple:  Images can require less — and in many cases very very much less — storage space than files of Images.  Rather than save a full-size file for every Image, Aperture saves only instructions on how to make that full-size file.  The gain in storage efficiency is huge.  The trade-off is that although your Images are always available to be made into share-able files, you must create those files when needed (which you do by exporting selected Images).
    Here is your question reworded with more precise terms:
    SamanthaR22 might have written:

    No, there is not.  Images exist only in Aperture, and are not accessible for use in other programs.  You must create, for each Image in your Aperture Library, a new file outside of your Aperture Library in order to use it with another program.
    Aperture does allow you to create and save within your Library share-able files of your Images.  These files are called Previews.  You specify the file parameters in Aperture Preferences on the Previews tab.  These files are available to other programs via the OS X Media Browser.  These files are what you get when you drag selected Images out of the Aperture program and drop them on another program or on your desktop (which is part of the Finder).

  • Bookmarks save only in 'recently bookmarked' folder & can not be moved to other folders

    I can no longer save bookmarks to a designated folder - they go only to 'recently bookmarked' folder and can not to moved to other folders- when attempting to move them to another folder, they appear in the designated folder list but when I return to the main browser page, they are not listed. They are still in the 'recently bookmarked folder' only. I have attempted to save bookmarks many times since, with no success.

    Those bookmarks should be located in one of the root folders.
    If you click the star in the location bar then the page will be bookmarked in the "Unsorted Bookmarks" folder and the star turns yellow (blue on Mac) to show that.<br />
    If you use "Bookmarks > Bookmark This Page" then the bookmark will go to the "Bookmarks Menu" folder (you need to confirm that).
    "Most Visited" and "Recently Bookmarked" and "Recent Tags" are examples of so called [[Smart Bookmarks folders|Smart Bookmarks folders]] and are not real existing folders.
    * Such smart folders show a list created by a query of the places.sqlite database that stores the bookmarks and the history in Firefox.
    * Bookmarks or history items that show up in a smart folder list are stored elsewhere in another folder and any changes made are applied to the real bookmark or history item.

  • I have a Nikon S6300 and when I import into iPhoto the photos don't show up in events or photos only in recent imports

    I just purchased a Nikon S6300 camera and when I import into iPhoto the photos don't show up in either photos or events only in recent imports. 
    I have Snow Leopard on my MacMini.

    Control-click one of the photos under the Recent import and select "Show Event" in the contextual menu. Or you can use the View ➙ Sort Events menu in the Events mode to reset the sort order so the new import will be either at the top or bottom of the list.

  • Aperture crash during imports

    Having some import problems with Aperture and would be grateful for advice.
    Aperture works fine except at import from SD cards. The photos import just fine and then I get a message asking if I want to delete the imported images from the SD card and eject the card. This is where the crash happens. Aperture quits, the images are not deleted from the card and the card is not ejected. This happens with all my SD cards. I have reformated the cards but this hasn't helped.
    Any advice or information gratefully received.

    There are several reports recently on Aperture crashing after importing images, when the option "delete images" is chosen.
    Send a bug report to Apple, when the crash occurs, and - for the time being - refrain from deleting the images from the card this way, until this bug has been fixed. It is much safer anyway, to delete the images in the camera and not to let applications delete from the card and to wait with deleting from the card, until you have checked that the images imported correctly.
    Regards
    Léonie
