Aperture 3.1.1 and D7000

When importing images into Aperture 3.1.1 from my new D7000, after the import is completed I don't get the option "eject and erase card?", as it happened when importing from D80. So all images remain in the card after the import is through and I have to erase them manually from the camera. No big deal but it is not convenient for me.
With the D7000 I am getting only this option: *Import complete* 7 items have been imported into project named "2011-1" OK button.
"Resetting al warnings" in Preferences doesn't change the message.
Am I missing some options either from the camera or from Aperture, or is it the way it goes?
Thank you.

There are two common protocols used to connect digital cameras to your computer. The D7000 is apparently using Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP). This protocol is abstracted from the actual file structure on the flash card so the computer does not have access to delete files. It only provides the communication necessary to copy the files from the camera.
The other protocol is called Mass Storage Class (MSC). Using this protocol the computer has full access to the files on the flash card.
With PTP, Aperture will not be able to delete images on the flash card and therefore won't provide the option. When you put the card in a card reader, MSC is used and all options are available.
Some cameras are able to switch between the two modes. Check your manual or peruse the camera's menus to see if it can be changed.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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

    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.

  • 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?

    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.

  • Aperture 3.0.2 and Printing Presets

    I have updated to 3.0.2 and have 10.6.3. I trashed my Aperture plist and re-created a printing preset. However, the presets do NOT save. The printer always reverts to my default black/white laser printer, even though I selected an Epson R2880 and the paper size always goes back to "Letter". I have the most recent print drivers from Apple for the R2880.
    I have also tried on my MacBook Pro (10.6.3 Aperture 3.0.2) with only one printer installed.
    Anyone else see this issue?

    Same issue with Aperture 3.0.2 and HP Photosmart Premium C309g.
    I've only one printer installed but the paper size reverts always to the default setting (A4).

    Have not been able to re-install raw 3.13 always says newer software and closes
    I have Aperture disc 1,2,and 3;
    Followed commands to re-install from #3 no change in library's unsupported images when upgraded to 3.4.1
    Uninstall again with Mac Cleaner all ?DLL files erased only library remains
    Install #3 from disc and new permissions to open library"from newer version" and all of previous images restored, but new older ones start to blink out "they do not turn black but look like you are using rabbit ears to tune in your TV, scrambled" until viewed for processing then become unsupported.
    Repaired 3.1 library and Aperture would open but not open library. Re-installed 3.4.1 many more images failing to load across entire 5700 Nef's library but not JPEG.
    Close but where is culprit?
    Raw 4 is always there even in Aperture 3.1 due to Lion OSX8
    3.4.1 is the only down loaded upgrade, new down load each time
    Raw files/cameras are D200,D700,D800E and possibly Lecia DLUX-3

  • Could I please have feedback on adding Aperture, mainly for organization and storage.

    I have Iphoto and Adobe Photoshop already.  In my iPhoto I have 30K photos.  Could I please have feedback on adding Aperture, mainly for organization and storage.

    You wouldn't be adding it, you'd be replacing iPhoto with it.
    It does all the jobs that iPhoto does, and then some. You'll also find yourself using Photoshop less.

  • Aperture 3.3 library and keywords in iPhoto

    I have updated libraies to 3.3. When I open the library in iPhoto very few if any keywords are showing up.
    System Mac Book Pro with 10.7.4. I did a rebuild of the Aperture library but this di not help.
    It does not seem like this is expected behavior.
    Suggestions?
    THanke

    Same here:
    Do you also have hierarchical keyword lists? I see only a few of my Aperture keywords in iPhoto, and "Manage my keywords" only shows the top level keywords.
    Funnily, all the smart albums based on Aperture keywords are there and contain the correct images.
    To be able to use the same keywords in iPhoto and Aperture you seem to be restricted to the top level keywords in the hierarchical keywords list right now.
    Write feedback to Apple and request this to be changed.
    Some of the restrictions when opening the Aperture Library in iPhoto are explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5260

  • When going from Aperture 2 to 3 and managed library to an existing Aperture 3 referenced

    I am having to move several 2 TB Managed Aperture 2 Libraries to a new drive because the drives they are on are full and cannot be upgraded. I am copying them over to a new 4 TB drive and can either export the images out of the managed Aperture 2 Libraries or should I, once they are on the new drive, upgrade the "Managed" Libraries to Aperture 3 then export the images. I have been using Aperture 3 for about a year and have about 7 TB of images in an "unreferenced" Aperture 3 Library which is where ultimately I want to be able to access the old images.
    Also what is the best way to export them out to maintain the integrity of the "Project/Folder/Album" structure I use.
    And finally, is there a theoretical limit as to how large the Aperture 3 "Unreferenced" Library can be? My Unreferenced Aperture 3 Library is almost 200GB's. I have about another 6 TB's of images to add once upgraded.
    Thanks for your help!!

    I have been using Aperture 3 for about a year and have about 7 TB of images in an "unreferenced" Aperture 3 Library which is where ultimately I want to be able to access the old images.
    If I understand you correctly, you want to create a consolidated single aperture 3 library on your new 7TB drive.
    And now you have a small aperture 3 library on that drive and want to add the images from several Aperture 2 libraries, that are now on a different drive, that is filling up, correct?
    Also what is the best way to export them out to maintain the integrity of the "Project/Folder/Album" structure I use.
    To keep the integrity of your old projectaa and albums, your edits and tags, without losing the lossless workflow, I suggest to import your old libraries as libraries and not to export the images from these libraries to reimport them.
    I'd do the following for each of your Aperture 2 libraries:
    Do you still have Aperture 2 running, along Aperture 3, or can you reinstall it? Then I'd run the Aperture First Aid Tools on each of your old libraries to rebuild them and to ensure that they are having no glitches. Do that in Aperture 2, if possible. To launch the First Aid hold down the key combination ⌥⌘ and double click the Aperture 2 library. Then select "Rebuild".
    Copy the rebuild library to your new drive.
    Double click your Aperture 3 library to launch Aperture 3 on it and use the command "File > Import > LIbrary" to import the Aperture 2 library into the Aperture 3 library. This will maintain all your projects, albums, edits, metatdata tags.
    Repeat for all your Aperture 2 libraries.
    Before you delete any copy of your old libraries, check carefully, if they imported well.  And check, if your backup of the old libraries is current, before you do the rebuild in Aperture 2.

    Léonie
    And finally, is there a theoretical limit as to how large the Aperture 3 "Unreferenced" Library can be? My Unreferenced Aperture 3 Library is almost 200GB's. I have about another 6 TB's of images to add once upgraded.
    There is no limit to the size of an Aperture library, that I know of. For merging libraries by importng one into the other you will need plenty of free space.  See this: Aperture 3.4.3: Release notes
    Scroll down to the paragraph "A note on upgrading your Aperture library" at the end of the document.
    It might be better, to distribute your combined library over two drives. 6TB on a 7 TB drive might be problematic, because the OS may occasionally more free space to perform repairs and rebuilds.

  • I am running aperture 2.1.4 and am considering purchasing the latest version. will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?

    I am running aperture 2.1.4 and am considering purchasing the latest version. will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?

    will my photos, projects, and folders etc. transfer over automatically ?
    Nearly automatically.
    This will be a major upgrade, and Aperture will have to upgrade your library.
    As a precaution, make sure you have a working backup of your library, and I'd keep a copy of the Aperture 2.1.4 Application installer as well.
    Also it is recommended to repair the permissions and to rebuild the library, to make sure that  the library has no corruptions before you upgrade.
    Rename the Aperture Library to a name different from the default name before you upgrade.
    Launch the new Aperture version by double clicking your Aperture library. Aperture will prompt you, that it is necessary to upgrade the library; let it run, this may take a while. And yes, you should find all your photos, projects, folders, etc. after the upgrade just as you imported and organized them.
