Aperture 3.6 Uploads to Flickr only at 72 dpi, not 300 dpi. Why?

Yesterday I upgraded to the new retina iMac (Yosemite 10.10) and updated Aperture to 3.6. (Previous iMac had not been updated with Yosemite.)
With previous setup, I was uploading to Flickr albums at 300 dpi.
With new setup, photos upload at 72 dpi, including files that previously uploaded at 300 dpi.
I've tried Preferences > Export > External Editor File Format > 300 dpi.
I've also done Presets > Image Exports > changed all formats/sizes to 300 dpi.
FWIW, I can export from Aperture into Lightroom and upload to Flickr from there at 240 dpi.
My question:
What setting am I missing in Aperture 3.6 so that photos upload to Flickr albums at 300 dpi again?

You should look at this thread Problem with Aperture 3.6 preset exports.
Seems Aperture has changed something since 3.6 that might be causing what you are seeing. The way Aperture is setting the JFIF x and y density settings has changed and they do not reflect the true DPI set on the file.
Don;t know if Flickr looks at those, something to keep in mind.

did you change the dpi setting in Lightroom? You should look the the image in Preview BEFORE you import into Lightroom. Look at the JFIF settings. Then look again AFTER you export from Lightroom. Did the JFIF settings change?

If exporting images for backup, to reimport into a clean aperture or other program, is it best to use 72 dpi or 300 dpi, or does it matter?

If exporting images for backup, to reimport into a clean aperture or other program, is it better to use 72 dpi or 300 dpi, or does it matter? I want the best quality for any future unforeseen use.

I am somewhat reluctant to answer your questions after Frank Caggiano's excellent advice, but I really do not like to leave the question open, for there will be many occasions when you will need to export images and to understand how it works.
But please, follow Frank's advice, right now you do not need to worry about pixels and dpi. That is exactly what I meant, when I suggested to you to make sure you keep a copy of your Aperture Library and to back it up with all your other data, before you erase your disk for a clean reinstall.
DPI revisited:
So, is the dpi setting only for exporting to print?
The dpi settings are necessary to define the size of a digital image, since pixels don't have any dimensions. And since you cannot print or display an image without knowing its width and height, you will need to specify dpi when you are printing or scanning.
If I leave it at the default 72dpi will there be any problems getting quality prints in the future from jpeg versions exported with that setting?
Not if you export with the original size - the maximum number of pixels available. That will ensure the maximum print quality.
The dpi settings are required to export versions; versions are derived from the masters and new image files are computed. When you export masters you get a copy of the original file that already may have a dpi setting.
If I choose "export masters", will aperture will export my masters just as they are?
yes, and you may add IPICT data if you choose
Pardon my thick skull--I'm an old dog trying to learn new tricks in this digital world!
No apologies necessary, we were all beginners once
Here is another example, maybe that helps a little:
I exported an image (jpeg) with three different setting: export masters, a version with 72dpi, a version with 300dpi and inspected the files in Graphic Converter:
The master was exported like this:
Notice, the master had already dpi settings, although I did not specify any on export.
The size is 51,48 cm x 38,61 cm.
The 72 dpi Version has larger dimensions, but also 10 Megapixels.
and here the 300 dpi version: smaller dimensions, same amount of pixels.

Set up home sharing on iMac and iPhone. iPhone app launches fine, play library but only plays on iMac, not iPhone. Why?

I set up Home Sharing on both my iMac and iPhone. When I launched the phone app and selected my iTunes library, the music played on iMac but not on the iPhone. That was the whole purpose of turning on Home Sharing. What am I missing?

Anyone? This is really irritating me because it's so simple and worked just fine, but now it just won't work and I need it.

Upload to Flickr but not Facebook

When I upload to Flickr, my preferred home for photos, the same files appear in Facebook. Is there a a way to upload to Flickr only, but selectively upload to Facebook?

Hello Pete,
You do not have to post to both Facebook and Flickr at the same time. I found some steps to just post your photos to a Flickr album without posting to your Facebook account:
To create a new Flickr album to publish as a Flickr set
1. Do one of the following:
In the Library inspector, select an item.
In the Browser, select a group of photos.
2. Do one of the following:
Choose File > Share > Flickr.
Choose Flickr from the Share pop-up menu in the toolbar.
3. In the dialog that appears, do the following:
If you have multiple Flickr accounts, choose the Flickr account you want to publish to from the Flickr Account pop-up menu.
Choose New Set from the Set pop-up menu.
In the Set Name field, give your Flickr set a name.
In the “Photos Viewable by” pop-up menu, choose an access level to set who can view your Flickr set.
In the Photo Size pop-up menu, choose an image size option.
4. Click Publish.
You can find the steps under the section titled "To create a new Flickr album to publish as a Flickr set" in the following link:

HT6337 Continuity works but iPad shows only callers number not its name, why?

I have two fresh systems on my iPad Air and iPhone 6 both 8.1.2
Continuity works but on receiving a call iPad will only show callers number not its name - why. Caller is part of contacts

Are your contacts using an iCloud account? Is this same iCloud account used on your iPad and iPhone? I believe that would be required to see the contact's name on your iPad.

Can't upload to flickr from Aperture 3.5.1

I've just recently tried to upload to Flickr from Aperture 3.5.1 and am getting an error message:
"Aperture is no longer authorized to use the Flickr account "Michael Meyers" Do you want to set up publishing to this account again?"
I then click on the "set-up" button and am taken through to Safari to login to Flickr. I can do that successfully but then get a message saying "Oops! Flickr can't find a valid callback URL."
So it looks like there is no way for me to export from Aperture to Flickr.
This might have something to do with the Flickr API changing to use SSL only but I can't really be sure since the error messages aren't that descriptive.
Any ideas?

Check, if the "Primary Only" flag is active. If yes, disable it.
With this flag active, only the primary image will be effected by edits.
See: Keywords or ratings are applied only to one of the selected images - why?

Lightroom 5.2\5.3 crashing after two uploads to flickr

Hi all,
After getting a bit of a nagging from the in laws I got round to cataloguing the last few months photos to upload the pics of the kids.
When I go to upload to flickr it will publish two images then crash and the cycle repeats - having a few hundreds to upload there is no way on earth I'm going to babysit Lightroom while it does this.
I'm using jFlickr and have the most up to date version - although I was reluctant to mention this as I half suspect my issue will now be shelved using this as a get out - but frankly Adobe's offering is poor and presumes you've just started with Flickr.
The OS is Windows 8.1 64bit - LR 5.3 (same results on 5.1 and 5.2)
From the event logs I have the following errors:
Faulting process ID: 0x1b04
Faulting application start time: 0x01cf1b6ba0c459e7
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.2\lightroom.exe

Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.2\CameraRaw.dll
It them repeats through one of these three for each failure.
Thanks for reading and I hope someone out there has found a solution.

Any ideas anyone?
Jeff suggested checking the integrity or a re-install - I have completely rebuilt the PC - so clean install plus totally up to date versions - I also check integrity when I backup and it always passes, in addition I cleared the prefs file (again Jeff's idea) but it still crashes, but only with his plugin.
Is there a way to rebuild the catalogue without loosing the settings?
Could it be because I recently converted to DNG?

Unknown protocol when uploading to flickr

I have been authorizing and using the upload to flickr for years, but now it comes back with
"Unknown protocol "
when I try to Authorize it and this is the same in Chrome, Firefox, Internet explore and Opera
Any help please, the only thing I think has changed in the 5.7 update in lightroom

At this time can you upload this file or any video file to Facebook without using Premiere Elements?
Do you have any of those videos that uploaded to Facebook successfully previously from Premiere Elements so that you can try uploading them again as part of troubleshooting the present issue?

Lots of confusion uploading to flickr

I routinely upload to Flickr from each of my 5 Macs, and have seen messages in iPhoto that says certain sets are being removed from my flickr account. I suspected that this is because I upload from different Macs and the libraries are different. And the current iPhoto that I'm using is trying to sync it's library to flickr.
I do not want iPhoto to delete any sets like this, without my approval, so I removed the permissions from my account settings on the flickr page, in hopes that I could add them back with only write permissions.
There does not seem to be a way to do that, and now, when I try to upload from from one of the computers running iPhoto 9, it won't prompt to setup the flickr account..it just says :the login details or auth password were invalid".
On my one Mac that has iPhoto 11, it is prompting to setup the flickr permissions again, but it will not give options to allow only writing.... I don't want iPhoto to do any sync'ing in this manner (if indeed, that is what is happening)
So...I have 2 problems; 1. can't upload at all from my iPhoto 9 Macs and 2. Don't want iPhoto to delete stuff from my flickr account.
Flickr help/support referred me to Apple support...so here I am.
thanks to anyone who can sort this out for me.

You might try another ftp program, like Fetch. Make sure the settings are OK for iWeb, per this note:

NSURLErrorDomain error -1 uploading to Flickr

I was able to upload to flickr at one point in the past but it doesn't work anymore, using iPhoto 11 (9.1 (475)) I get the error: "The operation couldn't be completed NSURLErrorDomain error -1" when I try to share to Flickr. I tried several things to fix it: Repairing permissions in disk utility, Removing my flickr and iphoto keys in keychain access, adding and removing my flickr authorization, using a new user profile on my machine, using a different machine. Nothing can share to my Flickr account.
The only way I can get the error to go away is if I use a different Flickr account. This leads me to believe there is an issue is on the flickr side (account/api). My suspicion is that since my account on Flickr is pretty old, the API call fails because of a domain or redirect issue.
If anyone has experienced this please let me know. I am going to contact flickr but I thought the more information I can gather to help my case to shed light on the issue will help.
Also more debug information from iPhoto would help greatly, by launching it in debug mode somehow so I can actually get a stack trace of the iPhoto calls or error output from the Flickr API.
Thank you.

I got this error the first time I tried to upload a photo to Facebook with iPhoto 9.3.2 which I just purchased. Restarted iPhoto and it worked. I sure would like a list of all of Apple's numeric messages. Probably a login failure of some sort.

Unable to upload to Flickr LR5.7

I'm on LR5.7 and have been using the Flickr publishing service happily for many years. Over the past few weeks, I'm getting the following error "Can't update this collection. Flickr API returned an error message (function upload message Filetype was not recognised)"
This makes it seem like it's on the Flickr side but it sure would be nice to have a fix. Also, maybe this is just a British thing (recognised)!

I don't think so - just following the same workflow I always have
1) Select raw images
2) place them in the album I want in Flickr in the Flickr module
3) Ask it to publish
I think it's usually converting to jpg as it uploads. In this particular case, it's only images, no video files.
Worked for a long time and suddenly, not working.
This is also being discussed in flickr forums (Flickr: Discussing Lightroom has stopped uploading to flickr in Lightroom 3 and above: Flickr Publish Service)

How to upload to flickr using 5800

I just bought a new Nokia 5800 phone. I was really excited to get my photos online. But when i opened the share online application there was no option of uploading to flickr. The only available options were Vox and NokiaBlog. I tried the configuration file available at http://www.flickr.com/help/nokia/ , but when I try to install the settings the phone says, "File is corrupted."
How do I get uploading to flickr working on my phone?

hey there,
i am in the same situation.
i have a new 5800 v20 and there is no way to upload photos on flickr.
i saw that it is possible, because of this video:

Can no longer upload to Flickr -- any ideas?

iPhoto 11 (9.1.3) no longer uploads to Flickr. I get all the way to "upload" and then it does nothing. Tried restarting both the program and the whole computer to no avail. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

Oops, that's "publish" not upload.

Lightroom: The upload to flickr service is not working correctly anymore

Hi!
i have the newest version of 5.2 installed.
i have some automated virtual folders for uploading to flickr.
in former times, when i changed one of the pictures and pressed "publish", the pictures which were already online have been deleted and uploaded again (replaced).
now i have a lot of dublicates on flickr.
is there already a fix, or is this problem known?
thanks & best regards
jens

1. I don't know.
2. Maybe somebody else does.
3. If I were you, I'd try Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin. Why?
1. It may not have the same problem.
2. If it does, he'll be able to give you the straight scoop and/or fix it in a matter of hours or days, instead of weeks or months...
