Aperture 3 not referencing photo files after reload

Using Aperture 3.  Scrubbed hard drive and restored system.  Moved files back from backup Reloaded A 3 from original disk, it remembered categories, albums, etc. but not thumbnails.  Photos stored as files not in Aperture library. help Aperture find photos without loosing all my albums, etc.

You'll need to run File->Locate Referenced Files..
Bassically select all images in Aperture that are listed as having a missing or offline master then run the command.
You might want to take a minute and read up on the command in the uer manual before runing it.

  • Aperture 3.4.5 will not show NEF files after importing in OSx 3.8.5

    Hi this is driving me crazy.  I have quite a few NEF files from a Nikon E5000 that I would love to be able to process using Aperture but have run into a rather difficut situation.  When I import my images into Aperture I can see the preview of the files in the browser but can not get them to display after they have been imported.  I have tried importing localy through the internal hard drive on my IMac late 2007 as well as through an external NTFS formated USB backup of my files.  It also chokes on direct imprting from the CF card using a card reader.  In all cases they will sometimes display for a brief second both in the picture browser after importing or on the film strip view but will then disapear and display "unsupported image format" in its place.  I have reinstalled aperture and run both repair persissions through disk utility and the aperture repair utility that ships with aperture.  I have no problems with canon raw files or other file formats - jpg, tiff, png, photoshop, bmp.  Also NEF files will open in lightroom 5 and photoshop cs6 with out issue as well.
    Any help in restoring functionility would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for the time and effort in advance.

    Do you mean a NIkon CP 5000 (Coolpix 5000)? Aperture supports many raw formats, but not all, because the raw support  has to be camera specific. Not all NEF files are in the same format - all Nikon cameras will call their raw files NEF.
    For some cameras Aperture never included raw support. The currently supported cameras are listed here:
    http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html
    It looks like your camera is not on this list, so if you want to shoot raw with that camera, develope the raw files using a different raw converter (Adobe's dng converter or the suftware that came with your camera) and import tiff or dng files to Aperture.

  • QT10.1 will not open .wmv file after upgrade to 10.7.4

    Hi Qt 10.1 will no longer open .wmv files after upgrading to 10.7.4.  I have the latest version of flip for mac.  They will opwn in QT7 pro but does anybody have a fix for this problem at all?  Thanks in advance. 

    I'm having the same issue, but do not find a 3ivx codec in the mentioned QT folder.  I do, however, have these codecs listed in that folder:
    AppleGVAHW.component
    ApplePiletVideo.component
    AppleProResDecoder.component
    AppleVAH264HW.component
    QuartzComposer.component
    QuickTime3GPP.component
    QuickTimeComponents.component
    QuickTimeFireWireDV.component
    QuickTimeH264.component
    QuickTimeIIDCDigitizer.component

    QuickTimeMPEG2.component
    QuickTimeMPEG4.component
    QuickTimeStreaming.component
    QuickTimeUSBVDCDigitizer.component
    QuickTimeVR.component
    Could ANY of these be causing my wmv files (or my Flip4Mac) to be corrupt and unable to work?  I appreciate any insight you may have.

  • Itunes on W8 will not play any files after upgrade to 11.0.4.4

    After following the prompt and updating Itunes on Windows 8 to version 11.0.4.4 on 6 June, Itunes no longer plays any audio or video files from my library. Pick a file and Itunes shows that it is playing (Pause button only) however nothing happens. The file simply does not play.  Windows Media Player will not open any files. VLC will play flash video files but with no sound.  Video played in IE10 seems to play ok including sound.   Anyone have any suggestions.  I can uninstall but figure I'll get teh same version when I re-install.   Everything worked fine prior to installing this upgrade.

    Resolved by running W8 System Restore to a point prior to the last Itunes update. Now back on the previous version of Itunes. Windows Media Player working correctly with all file types. Itunes working correctly also.  I'm quite happy not to re-apply any updates from Apple for a while.

  • Signature Scribble field not retaining image file after saving

    I have 2 issues with my PDF dynamic file I sent out
         1) The add/remove controls is adding a random amount of extra blank rows upon saving the PDF
         2) The image files selected for the Signature Scribble field is not retaining the image file after saving. It also doesn't give an opportunity to actually draw in a signature.
    I even tried to use the Subform Instance Controls Insert/Remove/Move in my table, but I keep receiving the error "You have reached the maximum number of items allowed"
    I would appreciate any help you can give me! I have been farting around with this for too long.
    Thanks!
    Rhonda

    Thanks Pat.  Tried each, restarted computer each time; tried the "Accept" routine several days ago - it worked briefly and then stopped.  Uninstalled Reader and Flash as well.  Strange thing with Flash, one of my online broker programs provides streaming of CNBC.  When I clicked on the CNBC option to initiate CNBC, I got a message saying that I needed to load Flash.  I did, and it loaded again with no mention of Flash having already been installed.
    Using Internet Explorer works, as well as, clicking on the .pdf file within Windows Explorer (WE).  Expanding the window in WE makes it large enough to read.  I would still like to find a way to open the files as they are designed to open.
    I have done all of the Adobe updates as they have been presented.  Microsoft updates load automatically, and restart my computer in the process.  I do not look to see what the updates have been.  I figure if there was not a need, Microsoft would not make the updates.

  • Why does Aperture 3,not process RAW files from Leica D-Lux 5 ?

             Hello:
    The purchase of my Leica D-Lux 5 came with LR 3. All raw files can be processed in that Application.However.I also have Aperture 3 and it will not process RAW files from the D-Lux 5.I hope that Apple soon will address this inconvenience.Has anyone els had the same problem?
    Hoping for a solution;Thanks John Basso.  Mac OS X 10.6.7

    I can tell you that it does process them from Panasonic LX5's - I have one. The files are probably very similar with slightly different processing metadata and a different tag. It is possible to change the tag in the RAW file prior to import that "fools" aperture into thinking that the RAW is the same as a camera that is supported. I have done this with other cameras where the RAW files were really the same but the camera was not yet "officially supported" at the time I bought it.
    I kinda remember doing it to the EP-2 or was it the EPL-1? Don't remember but there are plenty of tools that will allow this - google is your friend.
    Just make sure that your install of Ap3/OS X DOES actually have support for the LX5... Might work but I have not tried it.

  • Error "file is not a resource file" after updating to LV2010

    Hello everybody,
    my problem is that I can't call a c++ dll after updating to LV2010 and Visual Studio 2010. The DLL is written in Visual Studio 2008 and worked perfectly. Now I compiled the dll again because add some new functionality. In the development pc I fixed that problem. I manually replace the call library function nodes and configured it again. I made a installer package from my lv project. This installation don't work with the dll on the target with same error "file is not a resource file". The rest of the application works fine.

    Hi
    Verify that all your files have correct extensions and rebuild the.exe file.
    I hope this will help

  • Aperture does not recognise TIF files from Nikon CoolScan

    The TIF files from my Coolscan are good in every other application, but Aperture does not recognise them. I've tried re-saving the TIFs as JPG and PDS but Aperture doesn't recognise any file generated from the TIF. Maybe it's something to do with the scanner driver? Any ideas how to load these files into Aperture?

    You might check the color space that is assigned to the files. If you are using Nikon Scan software to manage your CoolScan, there is a preference for setting the color space of the saved file. FWIW, Nikon CoolScan .nef files are a 'raw' file, not camera raw, that was/is a Nikon proprietary format for their scans. If you use the Nikon Scan for image editing, the edits are non-destructive in saved files and can be adjusted by re-opening the file in NS. Adobe first made editing camera raw available in early 2003 and the Nikon format preceded that. Nikon's camera raw format also has the .nef extension, but is not the same as the CoolScan .nef-- really confusing. I suggested checking the color space, because Nikon has different internal names for Adobe RGB(1988) as well as their own Wide Gamut space.
    All said, I've not had a problem opening .tif scan files in Aperture.

  • Can not open InDesign file after crash

    I was recently updating a file for a client using CS3 InDesign for the Mac. The file was created in InDesign CS2 and when I went to save the file my InDesign crashed. When I went to reopen the file, I was given this message "Cannot open the file "xxxx". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file may be open in another application."
    I've tried reopening from CS2, a PC InDesign and from other computers, but they all give the same message.
    This is a large document and I would hate to have to start from scratch, but I could use any suggestions or if anyone else has had the same issue with CS3?
    Thanks

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 will not open photo files

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 will not open photo files

    You are rude, to say the least.  It is adobe's fault for marketing it as compatible.  Yet another reason why I want nothing to do with adobe.  The fact they marketed it as compatible when it is not is what I have a problem with.  I am not blaming the software, I am blaming the company.

  • How to restore photo file after empty trash

    photos file have been deleted and trash is empty.  please advise how to restore. many thx! cheers

    Hey there TizJacky,
    If I understand correctly there were pictures in your Mac OS trash which has been emptied, and want to restore them. In order to do this, you would need to have had Time Machine setup and backing up your computer before this occurred. This article will help you out if you did:

  • Aperture will not recognize photos after failed import?

    Hi, I'm running a 13.3" MacBook Pro circa fall 2010 with 10.6.8. 
    I was uploading photos from an SD card I use with my camera.  I accidentally pressed "import all", and Aperture began to import everything on the card.  I did not want this, so I stopped it.  A pop-up appeared, something about "if I want to finish the import first," I think.  I pressed "no."  It eventually all stopped after canceling it 1 or 2 more times. 
    After this happened, I can no longer see the photos on the SD card when trying to import them in Aperture.  It just shows a grey background with "Loading Assetts..." at the bottom and the spinning wheel. 
    Why won't Aperture recognize these photos after this failed import?  And how do I fix it!
    Thank you, very much.
    -P.W.

    When you are seeing Aperture stuck on "Loading Assets", try to select that line in the Activity window. If possible, press "Cancel task".
    Can you now access the option in the "Import" window and check the setting? Make sure, that "Do not import duplicates" is disabled, and that the "Import Settings" do not exclude any filetypes.
    Check the "File Types" brick and the "Raw&Jpeg" pairs brick. Can you now see again the images on the card?
    In any case, repair your Aperture library after the force quit. Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    Your Aperture library may have become corrupted, so that the Import dialog cannot access the database files inside.

  • After iTunes 10.5 and Aperture 3.2 updates, Aperture will not recognize photos in iPhone attached to iTunes.

    Any clues to getting images off iPhone now? Worked fine previous. Thanks.

    I had the same issue after the updates and using iOS5. I disconnected my iPhone from the Mac, quit iTunes and reconnected my iPhone. Seemed to work. Only can't access the WHOLE camera roll.
    Hope this helps someone. If I work out how to get the rest of the roll I'll post back.

  • Aperture cannot find referenced RAW files

    RAW files imported to my local hard drive since installing Leopard cannot be found by Aperture. They are there, I can get a full resolution view, but I cannot make any edits as Aperture complains that the file is "offline". I cannot delete the photo for the same reason. It suggests I connect my internal hard drive and try again.
    I have found that by using the reference manager, I can reconnect the file to its original (even though Aperture says it finds it in the manager); after this, I can edit it. However, I cannot seem to do this en masse, and must do it one file at a time. Obviously a tedious step I didn't expect would be required by $300+ software.
    I have all latest software updates.

    Also, it only does this with RAW files; not JPEGs.

  • Aperture will not add photos to existing Facebook Albums

    I am currently using Aperture 3.4.5 ..
    I have a host of over 50 existing albums on my facebook and I regularly add content to them without any issues what-so-ever, however, two days ago, I tried to add 4 photos to an existing alblum using the normal method of: highlight photos, Share/Facebook, pick the album name from drop down menu, publish.  Normally at this stage, at the bottom of the Aperture window, it'd say something like publish or sync with Faceboon ... but not this time.
    I then go to check in my Facebook tab under Web, click into the album and found that the photos which I wanted to add are showing a tick on them, suggesting that the photos are already uploaded onto facebook but the photo count does not match, for example, the album had 8 photos in and i tried to add 4 more, .. the photo count still shows 8 but inside the ablum, all 12 photos have ticks onto of them.

    What is the source and details of the format of the photo that will not sync?
    Additional Information
    Verify that photos are in a compatible format. On a Mac, these file formats will sync from your iPhoto Library to your device: JPG, JPEG, TIFF, PICT, GIF, PNG, JPG2000 or JP2, PSD, SGI, and BMP.
    On Windows, these file formats will sync to your device: JPG , JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIF, TIFF, PSD, SGI, and PNG.
    Photos without extensions may not appear on your device.
