Aperture 3 and scanning faces

I installed Aperture 3 and the GPS scanning worked fine but I am having trouble with Faces. It shows a progress bar and only about 5% after 5 hours. I let the computer run overnight but this morning my MBpro wouldn't wake up. What should I do? Could it take more than 5 or 6 mins to wake up? It didn't sound busy (no HD noise). I have about 20k images (130gb worth)

The Library file page in the User Manual is a good place to start:
Working with Library Files
Aperture lets you select Images and/or Projects, and export them as a Library.  You can then either use this Library, or import it into another Library.  When you import, you are given the option to either merge (useful if you have exported from the Library into which you are importing) or copy.
In general, it is advised that you put as many files in one Library as possible.  The standard exceptions are multiple photographers not working for the same company, images that need to be sequestered for legal reasons, and special collects that are not based on a single photographer (mainly scanned archives, but ****, too).  The reason for keeping your Library big is that the Library is an index of everything in it.  The more that's in it, the easier it is to find.
If the number of Images that you don't want to ever have show up when you use Faces is not large, just delete the Faces Position Box from them.  This can be done by clicking the "x" if the box is showing, or right-clicking a proposed Face and selecting "Not a face".

  • Aperture constantly generating previews and thumbnails and detecting faces

    After starting Aperture or scrolling in the browser part of the Split View Aperture starts to generat previews and thumbnails and detecting faces, staling all my work in Aperture for a long time. After a while it is done, but start again if I start scrolling a lot in the browser or restarting Aperture. Aperture does not crash but it is it takes forever to work since it stalls everything. I can also se that after working for about ten minutes in Aperture almost all of my memory is gone. After a freshly restarted Mac I have about 13 GB of memory and after about ten minutes of work it is down to a few hundred MB. After closing Aperture I only get back about 8 GB of memory.
    I have tried the following:
    * Rebuilding thumbnails for all picture
    * Force rebuilding previews for all pictures (Holding down the Option key)
    * Reprocessed Originals for all pictures
    * Repaired permissions
    * Repaired database
    * Rebuilt database
    * Deleted aperture.plist file
    All of the above completed without errors, but I still have the same problem. I also tried to un-check “Maintain Previews For Project” and “New projects automatically generate previews” but with no luck (This is off course not a solution but a workaround).
    What else can I do?
    I hav the following:
    - iMac, late 2009
    - 16 GB memory
    - Aperture 3.5.1 (Had the same problem in Aperture 3.4.5 and possibly even before)

    Is Aperture more responsive, if you defer the generation of previews by holding down the Shift-key when launching Aperture?
    Feels a bit better but still regenerating previews.
    Also, have you checked, if Aperture is more responsive, when you are working with a different Aperture library?
    I tried creating a new library in two different ways using all pictures from my project "2010" which I know contains pictures that Aperture keeps regenerating previews from. First I exported the project as a new aperture library, but when I opened that new library it also kept regenerating pictures. Next I exported all originals from that project and imported them in a new aperture library and success. No more regeneration of previews. But I don't think it is a solution because I have over 23 000 pictures in my library and I will loose all adjustments, stacks and faces doing this to the rest of the pictures.
    As to running out of memory - there have been reports, that "On Screen Proofing" might be causing this, disable it (from the View menu), if it is turned on, see this post:  Re: Aperture 3.5 repeatedly crashes as 'memory full' despite 32GB RAM
    "On Screen Proofing" was not on. But to be sure I tried to toggle the menu item but it did not get checked, until I understood that I had to select a Proofing Profile first. After that I selected and unselected "On Screen Proofing", but it did not help.
    Do you use any Aperture plug-ins?
    I had an old plug-in for exporting to Picasa which I don't think works anymore so I removed it, but it did not help.
    Is your Aperture library referenced or managed?
    I have a managed library.
    And where is it stored?
    The Aperture library is stored on my local hard drive in the shared directory. I hade plans to share it with other users on my computer but because of these problems I have not gone forward with those plans yet.

    just some notes in addition to Ralphs answer: Your iPad is very useful to browse and show off your photos, i.e. the Retina iPad. You can sync to the iPad via iTunes or using the Photo Stream or a shared Photo Stream.  But if you can browse and store all your photos on the iPad, will depend on the available storage on your iPad. Using iTunes you can sync events, albums, faces stacks, places stacks to your iPad. Not many metadata tags will transfer however.

  • Running Aperture and Slow Performance on MacBook Pro

    I am running a MacBook pro w 4 GM interal memory, lost of HD space, and OS 10.8.4.  Often when working with Aperture system performance seems very sluggish to the point of becoming unuseable.  Export of 20 images to mail can take 10 min.  It just becomes so slow as if strangled for memory.  I find I shut down other apps but don't think this should be necessary with current OS technology.  Any suggestions?  Thanks

    Have you checked what it going on, when Aperture becomes sluggish?
    I'd recommend to launch some diagnostic tools, if you have not already done so:
    Aperture's own "Activity Viewer": From the main menu bar: Window > Show Activity
    This will tell you, how Aperture is spending its time : rendering, previews, scanning for faces or places, raw processing. Inparticulur, check, if Aperture is hanging while processing one particular image or video over and over again.
    The Console window: Launch it from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. Look, if you see error messages or warnings in this window, when Aperture starts to hang.
    The Activity Monitor: Launch it from the Utilities folder in the Applications folder. This window will tell you, which processes are using the cpu, the RAM, and doing page outs to the disk. You can see, if other processing are competing with Aperture and slowing it down, orif Aperture is starved for memory.
    How large are images? Do you have very large raw files or scans, or are your photos moderately sized?
    Is your library on the internal drive or an external drive?
    Do you see this slowness only with your main Aperture library, or also, if you create a new, small library with a few test images?

  • Leopard running Aperture and Photoshop really slow

    I just got Leopard and my Aperture and Photoshop are running slow and crashing, also when I run Pro Tools it won't boot up all the time. This is really frustrating. I keep loosing files images. This is running like Bill Gates made it.

  • If I install a trial version of Aperture and don't like it, will I be able to still use my photo library in iPhoto?

    I'm evaluating both Aperture and Adobe's Lightroom to decide which one meets my needs for the best price (got a deal on Lightroom 3 for $120 and I know Aperture 3 is $79 in the Mac App Store).
    I have a few questions:
    I currently use iPhoto '11 (9.1.3) and have Photoshop CS4, so I have tools for importing DSLR shots and making pro-type changes in Camera Raw, while also having iPhoto to organize my photo library and syncing Events and Albums with my iPhone and iPad.
    I like that I would be able to maintain my iPhoto library data for Faces and Places in Aperture, but am concerned that when the iPhoto library is "upgraded" for Aperture, and I decide I don't really need that program, the upgraded library won't work with iPhoto anymore.
    Will I still be able to use iPhoto to access and organize my library, or will it be forever converted for use with Aperture?
    I'm considering Lightroom because I have been disappointed with the number of bugs showing up in recent iPhoto releases. I'm a bit weary of buying another photo management software product from Apple. iPhoto '11 crashed my old iMac very frequently (I wound up upgrading to a new iMac due to this and I was expecting to run out of hard drive space in a year or two anyway).
    Recently, iPhoto bugs make Events show up multiple times in iTunes when syncing for iPhone and iPad.
    If iPhoto management is this unstable, I would like to consider choosing a new method of organizing and syncing to iOS devices and abandoning the iPhoto library method.
    Will I find a better user experience with Aperture, or does it also use the single file library and suffer the same struggles iPhoto users have been seeing lately?

    The iPhoto library isn't changed in any way by Aperture. Aperture will import the Library and you can choose to copy the files to the Aperture Library or reference them within iPhoto. As long as you don't delete files from the iPhoto Library via Aperture (which you could do if you choose to Reference) there is no impact on iPhoto
    Will I still be able to use iPhoto to access and organize my library, or will it be forever converted for use with Aperture?
    They are completely different libraries.
    Recently, iPhoto bugs make Events show up multiple times in iTunes when syncing for iPhone and iPad.
    Fixed in the 9.1.3 update.
    Will I find a better user experience with Aperture, or does it also use the single file library and suffer the same struggles iPhoto users have been seeing lately?
    Like iphoto, Aperture can use the "single file library" or it can use a Referenced Library (just like iphoto can). Note that using a Referenced Library offers not a whit more in terms of features or capabilities. It's file storage plain and simple. Nothing more.
    No you won't see the "same struggles iPhoto users have been seeing..." because Aperture is an entirely different allication.
    But you my see Aperture or Lightroom struggles

  • Using both Aperture and iPhoto '09

    This might sound unnecessary, but I am sure that people do it. I use Aperture to import, store and manage my master files. However, I would also like to keep images in iPhoto in order to utilize and play around with faces and places.
    My question is what is the best way to get images from my managed aperture library into iPhoto? I know that you can open iPhoto creating a new library and then show the Aperture library to import from. My question centers around what are you actually importing? My assumption is that you are importing previews and not master files. Is so, what is the best way to set the preview so that you don't take up too much extra space on the hard drive?
    Also, there are some photos in which I would like the master to get imported to iPhoto. I say this because the red eye tool doesn't seem to work all that well in Aperture, but it seemed to work a little better in iPhoto. Again, maybe I am going about this all wrong. My thinking is that unless I edit the master for the red eye, I won't be able to print it out, if I am just editing a preview image. Unless of course, even though it is a preview, when I try to print it will still reference back to the original data minus the red eye.
    Any thoughts on the best ways to go about this, or whether it is even necessary? Maybe best to do initial import with iPhoto and then move things to Aperture? I only have a few hundred pictures in my library. Also, my library is backed up to a Time Capsule.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Terrence,
    Good stuff. Makes sense about how to run a referenced library, and also about the quality of the preview. I was wondering though, even if I set the preview quality to be 12 and didn't limit the size of the preview, would it still be less info than the original master file? I suppose if I really wanted a master file to print from within iPhoto, I could always just export from Aperture and import into iPhoto. I was just wondering in case I brought all my images into iPhoto as previews and then wanted to print out a photo book from within iPhoto. I just want to make sure that the images are going to be of the best possible quality.
    On a side note, without posting a new topic, perhaps you could answer another question for me. I just set Photoshop as the external photo editor in Aperture, because I was having some issues with the red eye feature not working so great in iPhoto. For some reason, Photoshop seems to get the red eye a little bit better on certain photos. Anyway, I noticed that it only gives you two options to save as: TIFF, TIFF 16 bit, PSD and PSD 16 bit. Why can't you save the files as JPEG's, or like the original master file when you use an external image editor? The size of the version edited externally is astronomical compared to the original master.

  • Just downloaded trial version -- don't see iPhoto library in Aperture and need to import selected photos-not entire library!

    I just downloaded trial version -- don't see iPhoto library in Aperture and need to import selected photos to edit, not entire i Photo library! I read manual and it says:
    Browsing and Selecting Images in Your iPhoto Library
    You use the Aperture iPhoto Browser to review iPhoto images and import specific images into the Aperture library. The iPhoto Browser gives you a handy way of looking for certain images without having to import your entire iPhoto library.
    So, where do I review the iPhoto images...there is nothing in there that says "iPhoto Library"   Everything I see pertains to Aperture Library which of course is empty since I haven't imported (or dragged) any photos in there yet.
    Also is tech support available for Aperture?  I have Apple Extended Support and I sure would love it if I had individual help.  I have a deadline --3 days to edit 300 photos and I'm a complete amateur.  iPhoto doesn't  have the capability to erase parts of a face (I need to contour the neck of a mannequin to make it proportionate to the separate head I put on top of it. I'm sure Aperture must have a tool to help me do that!  At least I hope so.

    where do I review the iPhoto images
    File -> Import -> Show iPhoto Browser

    if I decide to import entire iPhoto library into Aperture will it delete my iPhoto library?
    No.

  • Aperture and/or iPhoto ??

    After a recent photo shoot I realized that I finally needed to update my photography workflow.
    Currently I import pictures from my Rebel XT directly into iPhoto 09, I then make an album out of those pictures, go through my selection process of rejecting the majority of pictures, and then do any post processing in PhotoShop CS3 with the pictures that made the cut. This approach works but I find it cumbersome importing the images from PhotoShop once I have made adjustments. Ideally I would do it all in one application, which prompted me to purchase Aperture 2, as iPhoto's editing options are not robust enough for my needs.
    Tomorrow I will be installing Aperture and now I am left with the question of whether I should use Aperture as the application to manage my quickly growing picture library (currently around 10k) or if I should stick with iPhoto to handle the entire library and just use Aperture to do work on specific albums that post processing is required on.
    Many pictures I have taken and will take will never require post processing (ie pictures from a point and shoot) but I want one place where I can at least view all of the pictures in my collection (from point and shoots as well as SLR's).
    Should I keep iPhoto as my library organizer or should I let Aperture handle everything? What would/do you do??
    Thank you in advance for any insight on this!

    Everyones responses have been very insightful, thank you.
    I previously did not want to dirty up my original question by bringing up iPhoto exclusive functionality such as Faces, Places, Facebook/Flckr/etc integration; but I am glad it has come up.
    When the aforementioned iPhoto specific features were first announced, my initial reaction was that this new functionality would be inherited in the next version of Aperture, after a little thought though I am not so confident that will be the case.
    The responses to my initial question were unanimous that I should switch to Aperture to be my sole picture library management solution, prompting me to draw the conclusion that Aperture is the pro version of iPhoto rather that an application that works in tandem with it. Is it then appropriate for me to draw the conclusion that the aforementioned iPhoto exclusive functionality is considered more "home" than "pro" and therefore would not be migrated up to Aperture?
    I guess I am making this difficult because I wish to maintain one library containing "home"(point and shoot) and "pro" (SLR / post processing) pictures, without loosing the functionality appropriate for each category. I understand that a "home" user may never care about the editing tools available in Aperture and that a "pro" user may never care about tagging peoples faces, but I believe there is a category of user that will sometimes want to do both.
    When it comes down to it, I do not believe the iPhoto exclusive features will be enough to keep me from moving my entire library to Aperture, and hopefully some of those features will end up being inherited in an update someday.
    I would love to hear everyones thoughts on this but understand if this thread has lost it's appeal. Thank you again for the previous responses.

  • Managing pictures in Aperture and Adobe Lightroom

    I have just installed Aperture on my iMac for the first time.  I also use Lightroom and Photoshop.
    As such I want to keep the photo’s in the “Pictures” directory and not manage them within Apeture.
    I have just tidied up some folders etc using finder and when I go into Lightroom I just press the “Synchronise” button and hey presto, the folders in Lightroom are aligned with the actual folders in the Pictures directory.
    Can anyone tell me how I do the same in Aperture, as the changes I made to the folders/pictures are not reflected in Aperture’s directory?
    (I have selected “Consolidate master file” in Aperture, not sure what it is doing, but it’s taking a long time!)
    Many thanks
    Confused 1st time Aperture user!

    Note that's not what I said: Aperture does not HAVE to store the files inside its library (called "managed images").  They can be anywhere on disk you want ("referenced images").  It is entirely possible to put the files in a single location and access them from both Aperture and Lightroom.
    Again, though, the key is discipline, as if you start moving them around or renaming them (via Finder, or via Aperture, or via Lightroom), you will have issues because both the applications expect that you use them to move or rename the files.  If you move/rename them in Aperture, you are "breaking" what Lightroom expects you to do, and vice versa.
    I think in large part it's not the best idea to try and use both Aperture and Lightroom.  What they do has a huge degree of overlap, so it's really best to pick one as your primary tool.  If you value Aperture's Faces functionality and interface, and perhaps its integration with other Apple products like iWork/iLife, or ease of synching pictures to iPad or integration with PhotoStream, it may be the better tool.  If you'd like to edit photos and maintain smart objects, and you like Lightroom's editing tools or rendering better, it may be the better tool.  There will be compromises either way, but from a sanity and workflow perspective it's probably better.  Both tools can produce outstanding results.

  • Aperture and iPhoto Events

    Just wondering if I do decide to switch to Aperture 3, how does it handle importing all my iPhoto events? Do they become "Projects" and behave the same way? I know the app just came out but any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

    it freezes every time at the same place.
    Suggests that there's a problem in the iPhoto Library at that place, no?
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Slides via Aperture and Coolscan V ED?

    Hiya,
    I'd love to digitise my film slides via my Nikon Coolscan V ED. In the past I used the software Nikon Scan for that, but I wonder if it is possible to do an import via Aperture 3, since the last software update for Nikon Scan was released in 2004.
    My flatbed scanner shows up as a source, when I open the Import dialog, but the Nikon Coolscan doesn't show up. So I wonder if I have to install some additional (and up-to-date) software?
    Did someone succeed in achieving scanning via Aperture in combination with a Nikon Coolscan?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    All the best,
    Stephan

    I've done this exact same thing with the same scanner model. As already suggested, use the Nikon scanning software or VueScan to create TIFF files since only dedicated scanner software is +highly optimized+ for correcting scanning problems (dust, scratches, etc.).
    For my project, I spent nearly a week just testing scanner setting to find the optimum settings before choosing a standard to scan the thousands of slides. Settings will vary somewhat based on the quality of the positives you might scan (i.e. Kodak Kodachrome). My scans were output as huge TIFF files, then once I was satisfied with all images, I converted the batch to high quality JPEG images only after no more adjustments were necessary.
    Once done with scanning the best you can, Aperture is a great to for making final adjustments and organization. Keep and use the TIFF files if you need them, but Aperture mitigated this need for my purpose.
    Be patient. To scan thousands of slides, it literally took months. So if you haven't sorted your slides into the "trash" and "scan" piles, do that first.

  • Unify aperture and iphoto libraries: the book (tricky) issue

    I had been in the process of migrating from iPhoto to Aperture for a while now.
    I imported iPhoto library in Aperture few monthes ago and am now using only Aperture.
    Everything is fine for two things:
    - I could not import the books (format is not compatible), so i had to keep the iPhoto library
    - I didn't want to duplicate the orignals , so they are still in iPhoto library
    With Aperture 3.3, the library could be unified with iPhoto
    I would like to move all originals to Aperture library and still be able to open from iPhoto (so far, easy) but also keep the iPhoto books (which as far as i know are still incompatible with aperture books formats)
    In other words, i want one aperture library, including masters, and I want to be able to open it from iPhoto, and still keep the old books (that were built from the initial iPhoto library) in iPhoto
    Any clue ?

    Hi Leonie,
    You're really full of resources (not sure if this french expression translates well in english, but you get the idea) !
    I finally found a way, not the most elegant one, but it's working:
    0. Open each book in iPhoto. Delete in the book non-used photos of the book (in project list, choose book, then choose photos in the toolbar in the bottom, display non placed photos, delete). Now books projects only contain photos actually used in the book. (this step may not be necessary, but it speeds the process)     
    0. bis: Backup your Aperture library. don't forget to stop also any automatic backup process (like time machine)
    1. Open the iPhoto library with Aperture (remember i had already migrated to Aperture 3,3 & iPhoto 9, which makes the libraries compatibles)
    2. Export each of your books as a phototheque (right click on the book in the inspector navigator/ choose export impression project as a phototheque). Give specific name, for example "project x"
    3. Open first created book phototheque in aperture
    4. Tag photos of the phototheque with a specific keyword, for example "book x"
    5. Close phototheque for "book x" and resume on step 3 for other phototheques
    6. Open default aperture Library
    7. Import first phototheque, merge with Aperture Library
    8. Normally you get duplicates, especially if you have added metadata or edited the photos in aperture since you created the books in iPhoto. At least that's what happened to me
    9. You can now grab the recent metadata on the one that was already in Aperture and apply it to the imported one. To do that, create a smart album with the keyword "project x"; then move all new imported events from iPhoto to the event where they belong in aperture. Then in the smart album, for a specific picture when you choose "display in the project" (i have defined a shortcut) you are in the event where the duplicate photo also sits. Choose cmd shift C on the photo with metadata, cmd shift V on the photo with the tag  "project x" to transfer the metadata. You can delete the first one, except if you had edited the original differently in the book and in aperture and want to keep both. You still have to re-enter the faces on the imported one
    10. You can erase the tag "project x"
    11. Go back to step 7 for other books
    12. Check you can see your books in iphoto when opening aperture library with iphoto. You can now consolidate the aperture library and migrate all referenced iPhoto pics inside the aperture library
    13. you can erase iPhoto Library and other books phototheques created in step 2
    You now have one unified library, that you can use in aperture and iPhoto, with your old iPhoto books in it.
    (you also have lost a few hours...)

  • Does Aperture and iPhoto synchronize its library?

    I have over 26,000 photos and videos in iPhoto. I would like to use Aperture as my main application. After what feels like 3 hours of adding the iPhoto library to Aperture, I am ready to go.
    The problem is that if I make an edit add or remove a picture in iPhoto can I make this change synchronize with Aperture so I have an upto date library of iPhoto in Aperture.
    I really don't want to have to load everything in everytime I make a change in iPhoto.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Terence,
    I have only been using iPhoto because that was my only choice back when I loaded the pics in. These are not professional shots more travel memories on ranging quality digital cameras.
    The thing is that I am quite enjoying the Faces and Places function on iPhoto, also the integration of images on my iPhone. If I want to add pictures, a selection of faces to the phone I can do this seamlessly through iTunes/iPhoto.
    I understand that Aperture is a great RAW editor and great with working colours etc.
    So if Aperture could run Faces and also Places, this would be a step closer to a perfect application.
    I realise that there is an app called Maperture which I am trying but do all my previous GPS settings get automatically brought into Aperture? How about Faces? I also realise that there is a bit of code that can be used but I am not able to utilise this due to lack of knowledge.
    Could you please tell me how I would run iPhoto in a referenced mode with Aperture.
