Aperture 3 trial installation question

I just received my free trial serial number and the instructions say to take Aperture 2 of my Application folder or rename it.
What folder would be best to put Aperture 2 into?

Hi karen2010 and welcome to Apple Discussions!
I simply renamed Aperture to Aperture 2 and then did the install. They are both there in the Applications folder. When I am ready I will just trash Aperture 2.
Best of luck.

Aperture free trial installation

I just downloaded the aperture free trial and cannot get it to open. every time I go to applications and try to open it, it just asks me to install it, again and again. what am I doing wrong?

A Pro-application needs a trial version - I agree.
Send feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html, they will not hear you here.
But it will be also your loss, if you do not give Aperture a chance - it is really a great program.
You can learn a lot about Aperture by trying it out at the nearest Apple Store, and by looking at the resources (Tutorials etc.) at the Aperture Support page, also have a look at the Aperture 3 User Manual
You might just reconsider

PsE Trial Installation Question

I cant install photoshop element trial on mack
[Title was edited for clarity - Hunt]

Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately, as Station_Two points out, this is the Photoshop Forum, Photoshop Elements' "big-brother." While the programs have some similarities, they also have many major differences.
I will Move your post to the very helpful and active Photoshop Elements Forum. Your link, and any e-mail subscriptions, will follow.
Good luck,

Please help me with this aperture 3 trial version installation guide, asap!

I have aperture 2 (licensed volume) already installed and when I tried to install this aperture 3 trial version install, I have got this message "A licensed copy of Aperture has already been installed in the Applications folder. To install the Aperture 3 Trial, rename your existing copy of Aperture, then run this installer again." And when I tried to rename Aperture under this application folder to Aperture 2, I have got this message "You do not have sufficient access privileges to rename the item "Aperture" ", even though I m the admin user by checking "System Preference" >> "Accounts". Realli appreciate if anyone can explain how to install aperture 3 trial version with Aperture 2 installed, steps by steps clearly. and how to work around with the Aperture library when Aperture 3 is installed with Aperture 2 already installed. Thanks

You have a permissions problem with your applications folder. There are multiple ways to fix this, if you read up on repairing permissions.
The easiest solution is to just Duplicate your Aperture 2 application instead of renaming it. (highlight it and press command-D). You'll get "aperture copy" and you will have permission to change its name.

Aperture 3 failed installation help!

Hey,
I'm trying install the aperture 3 trial to test it out as an alternative to lightroom but it just wont install correctly. All I get is a warning "Installation failed" and no other further information. Below is the crash report when I try to open the incorrectly installed program.

What does this mean? I removed all plugins that I had before installation (nik software).
Thanks!

When I try installing, it puts the program in my apps folder and when I try to open it I receive this error. I don't understand it.

"The (trial) installation failed"

I downloaded the installer and copied it to my Applications folder. It checked the hardware configuration was OK and accepted my trial serial number, but then it produced this window, with the content:
"The installer can't locate the data it needs to install the software. Check your install media or Internet connection and try again, or contact the software manufacturer for assistance."
Software Update says my system is up to date. My Internet connection is working - I posted this successfully! I've restarted the Installer, then restarted my computer, with the same result.
What can I do now?

Eureka!
I've tried a lot of things, including installing the OSX 10.6.3 combo updater over my existing 10.6.3 system (to ensure all system files were present), and reinstalling my old Aperture 1.5 system (long since removed from my computer and not used for years) to see if it would install - which it did.
At that stage, on an instinct, I reopened the Aperture 3.0.3 trial .dmg file and executed the installer directly, without transferring it to my applications folder as the Apple e-mail advising my trial serial number instructs me to do - "1. Download the Aperture 3 trial. 2. Install it in your Applications folder and open it ..."
It ran and installed the trial! How stupid is that? There must be other hidden files on the .dmg that are not transferred or accessible when the installer is copied to the Applications folder.
Apple really needs to fix the misinformation in its e-mail! I hope my experience helps someone else in the same circumstances.

Canon 7D Raw Support in Aperture 2 after installing Aperture 3 trial

Hi!
I'm having a really weird problem! A few months ago I purchased Aperture 2 and have been working with it ever since. About a week ago I installed the Aperture 3 trial to see what the general differences are. After playing with it I noticed not enough "useful" changes compared to Aperture 2 to actually purchase Aperture 3. So I removed Aperture 3 and went back to my good old Aperture 2.
Two days ago I bought the Canon EOS 7D, but when connecting to my Mac the Raw files are not supported by Aperture 2! While I was trying out Aperture 3 I used software update to update Camera Raw as well and it seems that Camera Raw Update 3.2 enabled Aperture 3 to work with my 7D's raw files but disabled Aperture 2 to support them! I searched the Apple support pages for older versions of Camera Raw and came across version 2.7 which should enable Aperture 2 to work with the EOS 7D. But as expected, I cannot install 2.7 because 3.2 is already installed!
Does anyone know wether it's possible to "downgrade" camera raw to version 2.7? Or is there any other solution to my problem? It can not believe that an innocent Aperture 3 trial forces me to actually upgrade to Aperture 3 because Aperture 2 now refuses to support my brand new 7D?! Is there anyone on this forum familiar with this problem and able to help me? Many thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Mick van Jaarsvelt

I am running with same type of problem. I have Aperture 2.0 and can not work the Raw files from my Canon 7D. I have no problems working Raw files from my old Rebel Canon camera. Did you solve your problem?

Can you create a book from the Aperture free trial?

I have created a book on the Aperture free trial and can't seem to buy it. Is there any way I can or can I not buy a book off of the Aperture free trial?

The free trial is a fully functioning version of Aperture so you should be able to buy a book with it. What problems are you having?

Is the aperture 3 trial version different from the original?

Hello,
I am working on organizing my photos trying out the aperture 3 trial version. I'm thinking of getting the original one but before I actually organize my libraries I want to know if there are any differences I should know about that might affect my work launching the original version. Also, does the original work the same with the Duplicate Annihilator?
Thanks in advance!

The trial version is a fully functional version of Aperture. If you decide to continue on with it you can just authorize the trial copy once you get our key. The only difference is the name of the default library the trail and non-trial versions create. But you can always rename the library if you wish.
All this applies to the CD version, if you eventually buy from the App Store I'm not sure what the procedure would be. But in any case the library created with the trial should be useable by the App Store version.
One thing to keep in mind, if you add images to the trial version and use it then decide not to keep Aperture you'll be able to retrieve your master files but any changes made will be lost.

Photoshop Elements 10 Installation Question

How can I tell if my software installed properly? The software came with three discs, and it only installed the first disc. I am new to Photoshop, and do not know if my software installed properly? Can anyone help?

Gautham K,
Thank you for your quick replies. I have checked,and my OS is indeed 64 bit. I have been using the 32 bit version of Adobe Photoshop Elements 10, since I installed it last evening. I have a few quick questions;
Will I loose any functionality if I stay with the 32 bit version versus un-installing and installing the 64 bit version from disc 2?
If I decide to un-install, and re-install from disc 2, will there be any software registration issues (as I have already registered the software)?
Thanks again for all of your help.
Jim

Aperture 3 Trial: Empty Email

I signed up for the 30-day trial, and received and email with the subject line "Getting started with your Aperture 3 trial". However, the body of the message was empty... no serial number, download link, etc. Has this happened to anyone else?

I tried and never got a mail. After about 30 minutes I assumed I must have typo'd and tried again... still nothing. That was probably over an hour ago.
A friend of mine just did it and got the message instantly (and with all the correct info).
I checked the "junk" folder (just in case it got mis-flagged)... nothing. Finally, I decided to try just one last try... and +this time+ I got the reply message instantly.
I'm guessing they were having problems with their request system.

Cannot activate/login with Adobe ID before trial installation of Creative Suite Design Standard

Cannot activate/login with Adobe ID before trial installation of Creative Suite Design Standard. After hitting login button, login screen freezes and nothing happen.
Already used 2 different Adobe IDs, same problem with both IDs.

Kathleenl30387883 I would recommend utilizing the steps listed in http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html to resolve the current connection error.

Aperture 2 trial freezes occasionally

I'm using the Aperture 2 trial, downloaded from the apple site, and I would like to purchase it when my trial expires. The only thing is about 75% of the time when i launch the trial from my dock it gets to the splash screen and then freezes. If i force quit and then open it again immediately after the initial freeze it'll get to the splash screen then ask me if i want to continue, register, etc. like it normally does on launch.
Does anyone know why it usually freezes up at the initial splash screen?
Thanks

I have the same problem, but more frequently. Like, ALWAYS. After working with Aperature enough to decide I wanted to buy it. I've got several thousand images imported already and all of a sudden the trial freezes at the splash screen and it's impossible to get beyond that point. Forcing Quit, even rebooting the Mac will not solve the problem. The last action I took was copying an existing Web theme folder and altering some of the HTML in the template pages of the copy but the freeze is unrelated to web gallery generation. There's something wrong at startup and now I'm faced with not being able to run the program, purchase it, and lose all the work I've already done with my photos in anticipation of buying the darned thing...

Installation Questions Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition

We are looking to install Documaker 12.3 Enterprise Edition and have the following installation questions:
When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?

When installing Documaker can we have our own VM in our own OU for the WAS application servers? This will make maintenance easier on our side. There doesn’t seem to be anything in the documentation saying this is a good or a bad idea.
The typical installation scenario is to have 3 tiers - application (WAS), application (Documaker), and data. WAS tiers host web applications (Dashboard, Administrator, Interactive) as well as providing database connection pools and JMS queues for messaging - it is expected that the WAS environment is a clustered environment and that the applications are deployed to the cluster members, which can be physical or virtual. For the Documaker application server, these can be physical or virtual as well. It's recommended to install Documaker on single-purposes environments, however there's nothing to prevent you from doing otherwise. The Documaker applications are self-contained JVMs and can be tuned accordingly.
Our WAS Admins would like to know what the scripts in the Post-Setup documentation actually do. Is it possible to use our existing scripting environment to build the necessary pieces instead of using scripts from the documaker install? If it’s not possible, can we get a look at the documaker scripts before we run them?
The installation process (currently) writes the scripts according to responses provided during the installation process. The scripts can be reviewed/modified prior to execution.
We would like to know if WAS 8.5 is supported, or if version 7.0.0.27 in the requirements pdf is the only version supported?
The official supported version of WAS is 7.0.0.27, however WAS 8.5 may be suitable (I believe there might be a fix pack requirement there - would recommend you submit a question to Oracle Support for verification).

Why Even after buying it shows Aperture 3 Trial library?

How to change "Aperture 3 Trial Library" to "Aperture 3 Library"

Quit Aperture and then change the Library's name in the Finder. The next time you start Aperture you might get a window asking you to show it where your Library is. (You can have multiple Libraries and choose which is in use either by double-clicking on it or holding the Option key when you start Aperture.)
