Aperture 3.0.1 Crashing...iMac I7 with 8GB RAM

I upgraded from Aperture 2.0 to v3.0, and then today to v3.0.1. The version is crashing every few minutes. The previous v2.0 was very stable. The software is running on iMac I7 with 8GB RAM. This is one of the worst software I have ever used. Apple should be ashamed of launching a buggy product.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

I'm not familiar with this particular plug-in (I don't even use Smugmug), so please take this as a general comment.
It's not uncommon for older plug-ins to crash newer versions of the application for which they were originally written. They might partially work, but when you carry out a particular action, they'll cause unexpected behaviour. This is because, for example, assumptions made about the host application when the plug-ins were written are no longer valid with the new version comes out and conflicts arise. It's been 'common' with third-party plug-ins for Safari in the past.
- +"This new version of Safari is buggy rubbish!!!"+
- +"No it's not - it's your (now) old plug-ins!!!"+
Once identified, the solution is usually to uninstall the offending plug-in and wait for the author/publisher to release an updated version.
The best way to rule out the possibility of the plugin being at fault is to remove it temporarily. The first step is to Quit from your host application - Aperture in this case. The second step is to go to the plug-ins folder(s) and remove anything in there. To ease reinstalling a plugin in case it's found to be innocent, you could, for example, drag it out to the desktop - rather than deleting it. It can then be dragged back in later on. The path is
/Users/ your-home-directory /Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins
There might also be plug-ins installed at the global equivalent folder:
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins
Of course, sometimes you can get multiple problems and solving one might still leave other +undesirable behaviour+ occurring and requiring further trouble-shooting.
Hope this helps...

thanks for your reply.
in Dutch it says that there are no updates available. I know that after
installing cs4 there are updates but i can't load them automatically. I did
a delete and reinstall, but still get the message.

More detail and a reply for the CQ50 - 130US will not boot with 8gb ram post

The specs, on the web site say that the max memory supported is 3GB DDR2 because the notebook was built with the OS Vista(32 bit) installed so that’s why the manual has the 3 GB max. memory supported limit. The 32 bit OS can’t address memory over 3.12 GB. To my mind that is not a spec. but rather a tech. writer who made a mistake and copied the sales literature. With Windows 7(64 bit) Pro. installed the OS can address up to192GB of memory if the system supports it. Other Compaq and HP Notebooks can deal with 8GB of memory installed. That’s why I would think HP’s could easily fix this with a patch or use one of their other BIOS’s.
The difference between 4GB and 6GB is that with 6GB system runs faster and the display quality has improved. I have set the cache size to large and the executive paging is set to off in the registry. The menu(System Properties - Performance Options – Advanced – Virtual Memory) is set to automatically manage the paging file size.

You should keep it in the original; thread you started.

Mac Book Pro with 8gb RAM

Can I have my ran upgraded at a local Apple Store? Or the only way to buy a Mac Book Pro with 8gb RAM is online?

In Milan, Italy, they did for me at the Apple Store.
They took out the original 4GB and installed 8GB. the 4GB were discounted at full price because I did it before going out of the store. If I remember correctly -200€ for the 4GB and +400€ for the 8GB. This means 200 €
At the end is practical but may be more expensive if you discarge the 4GB and install non Apple 8GB, but this may invalid tha garanty... I am not sure about it but I prefer to stay on the safe side.
The difference could be not much. May be you find 8GB for only 140 - 160 € but it will be difficoult to get more than 40-50 for the 4GB even if they are really new.

What version of LR should I choose to run it on a 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM)

As it says in the title: I want to run LR on my 2008 macbook pro OS 10.5 (updated with 8GB RAM). Adobe support told me that it would not be a problem, yet i'm confronted with a com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1. I have no idea what it is or how to solve it.
Can you please help me? Thank you.

You will not be able to use a LR 5 key on an older LR. While an intermediate version of OS X may be easier on your system and may allow a newer version of LR than LR3, if it is not current you still have to get that old version of LR from an alternate channel.
If you have an easy way to clone your system I would try upgrade you Yosemite and putting LR 5 on it since you have a key. If it doesn't perform to your satisfaction you can always clone back to 10.5 and seek an alternate solution.
However, was the LR 5 key owned by your previous job along with that other laptop? If so, it violates the license for you to use it.

HI! MB white 7.1 with 8Gb Ram, to install SSD or Hybride?

Hi everybody,
I have a MB white 7.1 with 8Gb Ram.
My harddrive broke and i need to replace it.
I would like to have 512Gb capacity or more and i don't know what to install inside?
Travelstar from Hitachi seems to be good but i would like to increase performences by using Hybride or SSD drive?
I did some research but seems difficult to have a clear view about what is good or not?
PLEASE do you have any sugestion of model / brand of SSD or Hybride
Price is not issue.
Thanks a lot.
Chris

go with a SSD if money is not an issue - you'll get a good performance boost when going with SSD than Hybrid.
Here are a few good SSD you can use with your Macbook.
Sandisk Extreme - Currently the fastest out there.
Kingston HyperX 3K - Right up there with the Sandisk for speed ( I have this one )
Plextor M3 - Another very fast SSD
Samsung 830 Series - Fast performance and this is the one Apple installs in their Retina Macbook
Crucial M4 - Nice performance but not as fast as the above SSD ( I have this one too )
OCZ Vertex 3 & 4 - Very fast SSD but have issues with some Macbooks.
good luck

IMac 17" with isight RAM question

I want to expant RAM on my old iMac - iMac 17" with iSight, 1.9 GHz, introduced october 2005
Is this RAM module going to be compatible?
DDR2
*2 GB*
*533 MHz*
PC4300
1,8V
*240 pins*
*Cas Latency: 4*
My concern is if the certificate (PC4300) is going to be compatible. Apple website says that there should be certificate PC2 4200.
Thank you for your answer. Greeting from Czech Republic.

Welcome to Discussions - the specs for your memory are
iSight:
1. PC2-4200
2. unbuffered
3. nonparity
4. 240-pin
5. 533 MHz
but I think the 4300 would work, just make sure that you can return it if it doesn't and that you get a lifetime guarantee.

Motion, iMac 24" with 1Gb ram: is it enought?

Ciao to all
I'm evaluating MOTION 2.1.2 as tool to produce small video (45 sec).
I bought, last week, a new iMac 24" with the standard components ( 1Gb ram etc etc...) and a friend gave me the possibility to try his Motion.
I found few problems working with the normal tools I need ( Motion 2.1.2, Photoshop 8.0.1, Fission and Safari opened at the same time)
I found a strange situation; sometimes the machine seems to be freezed; the processor is working at 5-15% ( so, nothing) BUT application are VERY low to react.
I discovered a problem of RAM; I mean, seems that 1 GB is NOT enought for my situation.
SO I tried to close as many app as possible but I detected that Motion seems to be VERY hungry of ram.
The availability of FREE ram (with only Motion and safari open) decrease, close to zero, the inactive ram is more then 1/2 ram installed (520 Mb)....
Can anyone expert of Motion help me a bit?
I have to decide if buy the app or not so I would like to to the right thing....
Regards and have great time for this Christmas.
Ciao
rob

Hi Roberto
Motion Graphics in general are memory hungry and for them to 'look nice' in development phase they need to be rendered (RAM preview). Now you can have this preview as FULL quality or half or quarter. If you use any of the latter two your preview will render faster, but not with best quality. This is good for checking timing and how things in general look like.
Recommendation: Always close not needed applications, reduce your preview quality to 50% or less (don't worry, in the final export, Motion exports in full quality) and it should be faster. More RAM is a good idea bu will cost you money, check first those two options. Cheers.

I have recently purchased an i5 27 inch Imac with 8gb ram, will this be enough to run logic studio and record vocals?

I have recently stretched my budget as far as I can and have purchased my first Imac! I am really excited about getting it , its an i5 2.7ghz and i went for the 8gb ram upgrade. My question is will this be enough to run logic studio to produce music and record vocals?
If you have a similar setup please le me know how it runs for you. I would also like to hear about the average number of plugins you can run and any other tip to get the most out of your processor.
Logic Studio will be the only big program running on it, I plan to get a blue icicle converter and a blue condenser microphone for vocal recording so I hope the Imac is up to the task!
Hope to hear from somebody real soon.

You should have no problem at all. That iMac is more than capable of running Logic.

I have a Black Macbook 4,1, penryn 2.4GHz, snow leopard 10.6.7 with 8GB Ram

Yes 8GB Ram. It all goes great until it enters in screensaver or sleep mode (i can't detect) or else i try to run some virtual machines (it doesn't matter if it's virtualbox, fusion or paralles). The van start get all crazy like the computer it's about to lift off and them the operating system freezes. How i resolve this? I know that it's related to the RAM but i would like to know why. Why the system recognizes the RAM and boots and works with it and them "oh my god i have 8GB.No way.Let do something to freeze up! Hammer time! Can't touch this!"
Another note. A friend of mine who is a developer as Mac OS X Lion on a external disk and we boot my macbook with. So far so good, nothing to report, but i didn't try yet with virtual machines. I need some kind of tool or expertie to analize my problem can somebody help me?

My apologies for forgeting to tell this part of my experiences. It all started in Mac OS X Leopard with 2GB and this is the evolution until now:
.Mac OS X Leopard - RAM:2GB
.Mac OS X Leopard - RAM:4GB
.Mac OS X Snow Leopard - RAM:4GB
.Mac OS X Snow Leopard - RAM:6GB (4GB + 2GB)
so far, so good, with 1 hdd, with 2 hdd, with RAID0 stripe, with RAID0 stripe + USB boot, with RAID0 stripe + Firewire boot, you named i tried it. Them the ultimate upgrade:
.Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.5 - RAM:8GB (4GB + 4GB) After an undetermined time "Oh dam!!!Ups there it go!!"
.Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 - RAM:8GB (4GB + 4GB) "Hummm!!!So far so good!!" - what changed?
.Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.7 - RAM:8GB (4GB + 4GB) "Hummm!!!So far so good!!...and ... little dam!!!" - what changed?
And them ladies and gentlemen the King of the Jungle:
.Mac OS X Lion Dev Prev 2 booting from firewire - RAM:8GB (4GB + 4GB) - life is good. What changed?
See, my point! I know something is fishy around here! I know that some configuration are theoretical not supported, but i want to find out why.
JoeyR says is the hardware, but wich piece? The graphics? And even so it's not the function os the bios/efi to allocate the memory to the hardware? Does the hardware has some limitation to access more memory than 6GB? Why is that? Isn't the bus of my computer a 64 bit like the CPU? Even if it is 32 bit the limit would be 4GB (2^32). How it can access 6GB and does complain?
Just to remenber i have a Macbook Black verson 4,1, CPU Penryn T8300 (Dual 2 Core) 2.4GHz with a GPU Intel X3100 (which *****!).
Now, with all that can somebody tell me of a tool or method that i can use to analize this stuff and find it out who provokes the crash/freeze/"oh dam!"?

Macbook Pro (late 2008) with 8GB ram sporadic freezing / hanging

Hi,
Last year, I was running Lion on my late 2008 MBP with 4GB ram with no problems. Whilst 4GB is the maximum officially supported for my machine, forum posts suggested that some people had no issues running it with 8GB.
I went for the upgrade and everything was fine, with no hanging - 8GB on Lion on my machine seemed to work fine.
When I then upgraded to 10.7.2 I had a separate issue (to do with an old install of PGP) which meant I had to do a fresh install of Lion from scratch and then restore from Time Machine to get it back working. Ever since I did this, I have experienced odd behaviour, notably:-
Machine has a tendency to hang / freeze every now and then for up to 10 secs and sometimes with the spinning wheel and sometimes also requiring a hard reset
Any mounted drives in Finder (dropbox, Truecrypt) sometimes don't come up at all, with the Finder progress wheel spinning in the bottom status bar of the window, and only a "Relaunch Finder" resolves this and allows me to access the mounted drive.
Machine seems a little sluggish despite me keeping on top of maintenance activities for my machine (as I used to for SL and Lion when I first installed)
I was wondering whether there was something whereby Lion would work fine had it been installed whilst the machine had the officially supported 4GB (and then later upgraded to 8GB) as opposed to installed on a machine with 8GB (which only officially supported 4GB) at the time of install. As above, everything was working happily with the 8GB until I had to do a completel refresh from scratch.
Has anyone else had experiences of anything similar and can shed some light? I am considering refreshing and restoring from time machine again with just 4GB in the machine and then putting the extra 4GB back in after the restore, but don't want to do this unless there is any evidence to suggest this will address some/all of the issues I'm experiencing.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you, basilmir. Below are the specs from my Macbook prior to the Snow Leopard and RAM upgrade. To upgrade to ML I needed to first upgrade from Leopard to SL. I expect to do that later today. In the same screen as below, I now see the memory as 8GB. When I run Activity Monitor I am seeing 7.75GB so I am guessing that the video card is using the "missing" 256 meg.
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: MacBook
Model Identifier: MacBook5,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2

2008 macbook shutting down with 8gb ram

i have a 2008 MacBook, A1278, running Mountain Lion, 10.8.2. I am trying to upgrade to 8GB RAM, in order to run xcode properly and it is shutting down on me after 1-2 minutes of use. I do have the newest boot ROM version. I just bought a new logic board for it. The hard drive was taken out of another computer (MacBook Pro, 2007), with Mountain Lion already installed. Could that be a problem?
When I remove the 8GB ram and put in the 4GB (which the 2007 Mac had), everything works fine.
I know Apple only supports 4GB but i've been reading that w/the latest firmware update, I should be able to use 8GB.
Thank you!

Memory from your 2007 MacBook Pro probably operates at 667 MHz and is DDR2. The 2008 MacBook's bus operates at 1066 MHz and is DDR3. Memory from the 2007 MacBook Pro should not work at all in your MacBook.
I think your problem is incompatible memory but swapping hard disks from one computer to another could also cause problems. Fix the memory problem, but you should reinstall Mountain Lion, ensuring the hardware drivers it contains are correct for your MacBook. Boot OS X Recovery and install it.

Energy usage (watt) of MacBook Pro 2010 with 8GB Ram and i7

I think of buying a MacBook Pro with 8GB, i7
(and SSD, but that's not important because it consumes less than HDD)
What is the energy consumption (in Watt) in idle state with display on under
1) OSX
2) Win7 (I need this for my job)

Well, I need a computer professionally. At least now.
But I want to keep my environments impact at a minimum.
So I need precise data to evaluate what I do:
money is one thing, because it's usually very finite,
but even more important is recyclability, energy, ...:
10 Watts difference (e.g. for 8GB instead of 4GB?)
will yield, over mac lifetime of say 10 years (the laptop
im am currently typing on is 8+ years old, but is slowly
going towards being obsolete, even with ISA SSD upgrade):
10 h/d * 365 d/y * 10 W * 10 y = 365000 Wh = 365kWh.
I try to save energy, so this is approx my direct energy usage
of 1 year (I have no car, do not fly, have no refrigerator,
do not heat my appartement above 10 deg Celcius, ...
but strangely I have a computer and I am a programmer ...).
For me, it's important. It is relevant for my decisions:
5 Watts? I will be tempted by 8GB. 10 Watts? I don't know.
(I do setup work, so I use VMs a lot, so I need quite some
memory for that ...).

Are there any refurbished i5 airs with 8gb ram?

When looking at the refurbished macbook airs, I noticed that there are only either the base models with standard i5, 4gb of ram or a few i7 with 8gb.
I wonder why apple isn't selling any refurbished base i5 models with an upgraded 8bg ram.

Apple makes the platinum level of refurbished products in the industry, they are not simply MacBook Airs that get a nice polish. Because of that, they are popular. It's a matter of supply of refurbish-able Macs and how fast they sell. You really have to check the website frequently to get what you want, and jump on it fast, especially anything popular.
The problem with the i5 plus 8GB is that it was a configured option, which means it's rare. They may not get one that can be refurbished to Apple's standards.

I am unable to download Mavericks from the app store and seem to meet the requirements on my 10,6,8 imac 2010 with 12gb ram

I attempted to download mavericks yesterday in the hopes of using the new lightroom 5 cc.
The download stalled and after an attempt to try anew, I click the download button and nothing happens.
What can I do?

I have restarted the app store, the download button is gray in my "purchased" area and when clicked does nothing, I cancelled yesterday's attempt and started the process again...now there is no response.
I have downloaded a small app to see if the process works...and it does
I have x 'd out of the download which has yesterday's date...
I have clicked the install app button and it asks for my log in approval
In the purchase area the button is grayed out...I logged into my account and saw that I could "unhide" it.
I clicked it again and nothing happens....
How can I start over?
