Aperture and Flickr sync

I sync nearly every project in Aperture with Flickr. Now I would like to check which photos I have synced and which not, but I can not find the richt selection in Aperture. Can anybody help me?

Having exactly the same problem. My guess is that Aperture sync is broken. The Flickr App behaves exactly the same and can't sort out the right date stamp. In my experience Aperture only sometimes messes up the tags and names, but always the time stamp, even after several resyncs.

  • Aperture 3 and Flickr sync problems

    Hi!
    I started using Aperture 3 recently and made the mistake of authorizing Aperture to sync with Flickr.  I hate it!  Now I want to deauthorize it somehow but don't know where or how?  I've read horror stories that all of my Flickr photos will be deleted from Flickr if I deauthorize, but none of my Flickr photos were uploaded from Aperture, they were already in Flickr and were automatically synced to Aperture once I authorized it.  Now that I realize I've made a mistake I want to get out, but how?
    TIA!
    Debbie

    I have been using the sync feature between my Aperture library and Facebook and Flickr for 6 months and I finally gave up on it yesterday.
    As an example of what I usually go through, I uploaded 159 photos to my flickr account this past weekend, then added some captions/descriptions/tags etc. on flickr (was that a mistake?). Then Aperture promptly undid some my work at the next synchonization... I don't want photos on my stream named DSC_6788.jpg, etc.  Thing is, Aperture undoes some of what I do on Flickr but not all.  There's no rhyme, reason, or pattern to it.  If I use Aperture to add tags (by entering keywords in the right field), even those partially disappear after the next sync.
    Another maddening thing is that it makes the filename the caption on Facebook albums.  I/e/. if, on Facebook, I added a desctiptive caption on a picture such as "Mommy and Daddy making out under the Eiffel Tower" (totally a made up example), then next time a synch happens, the caption would be "DSC_8646.jpg."  Gee, thanks for the help, Aperture.
    For 6 months I have lived in fear of opening up Aperture.  Will the sync mess up what I've published online?
    There should be option to not have Aperture override what you do on flickr (and Facebook).  I am a strong believer in the "Publish and Forget" model for places like Flickr and Facebook, not the sync model.
    For now, it's back to export to a folder and upload via the uploader.

  • Aperture 3/Flickr Sync - Non Responsive?

    A week ago I tried using the Flickr sync tool in the Aperture 3. I had an issue where it deleted half of one of my sets when I tried to move things over on flickr so I could access it in Aperture. I removed the permissions in flickr and deleted the flickr album in my library and figured I'd find another option.
    Now, when I click the flickr button or do share/flickr, nothing happens. Facebook, mobile me, and email work but not flickr. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with no change. I've tried a number of different photos with different formats and differently formatted file names.
    Is it possible that this is just a flickr permissions issue?

    Same issue here, just can't get it to work at anything other than 1024x

  • Guidance on Aperture and Flickr Integration

    Can anyone point me to anything that advises on the correct way to use the synchronisation feature. I just can't get this to work consistently; my Flickr folder in Aperture does not match the set in Flickr.
    As seen on Flickr, I routinely get duplication whilst other photos go missing. I only get duplication in the Aperture album.
    I'm on the verge of giving up on it, which isn't a big deal, but this kind of flakiness does make me doubt the solidity of the application in general. I'd much rather think that I've just misunderstood something.

    i had a set in Flickr that is where i place 1 photo a day for all 365 days this year. i have been using my iPhone 4 to upload photos to Flickr, but i had synced this set to Aperture. today i used my regular camera and edited the photo in Aperture and dragged it to the Flickr set (in Aperture). when i went to Flickr, the new photo was there, but 3 previous photos were now listed as being newer than the photo i just added. my 3 previous photos that had 10 - 20 views had been removed and replaced with the same photo without the tags, without the titles, without the views, and without correct date for when the photos were taken. i had to spend a lot of time in Flickr trying to correct things and guessing the dates taken. not fun. and i really don't like losing the view count as i take great pride in that.
    i was pretty excited to upgrade to Aperture, but version 3.0 is disappointing if it's going to screw up my hard work.

  • Aperture 3 Flickr Sync is broken?

    Been running into consistent problems with Aperture 3's Flickr sync. Random images in sets aren't uploaded, and resynchronizing with Flickr doesn't correct the problem. Also, some images don't upload according to the settings specified - for example, setting the export to use original resolution sometimes only uploads 1024 pixels wide when the original is much larger.
    Anyone else running into these problems?
    I like that they incorporated this, but it's so unreliable I've resumed using 1001 to handle my Flickr uploads.

  • Aperture and Flickr Export Problems - Missing Files

    I have a MacPro, Aperture 3, and Flickr Pro account. I was planning on using Flickr as an online storage/back-up option for lower-res files. However, whenever I try to upload a project to Flickr files always seem to drop off.
    For example, if I export a project with 446 files in it, when it gets to Flickr it'll say I only have 403 images. Likewise if I try a smaller project (e.g., 426 -> 404).
    Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas what is the cause of this problem?
    Also, any way to remove that 500 upload limit per project to Flickr? Flickr itself does not limit the number of photos you can store in a set.
    Thanks!

    Maybe it's related to this bug?

  • Syncing aperture and iPhoto, syncing aperture and iPhoto

    I'd like to switch back to iphoto from aperture.  I believe Apple isn't supporting aperture very well.  Any suggestions?

    Neither Aperture nor iPhoto do support synching of their image databases or even synching between databases generated by different applications.
    The way from iPhoto to Aperture is a one-way road - to import iPhoto Libraries into Aperture is well supported, but back from Aperture to iPhoto you will have to export your projects and to reimport manually. This makes sense, since iPhoto only offers a subset of Aperture's features.
    I believe Apple isn't supporting aperture very well.
    I will not discuss belief, but Aperture and iPhoto share many frameworks and the database engine; so the only thing you'll get by going back will be a simpler graphical user interface and reduced funtionality.
    Good Luck

  • Aperture 3 and Flickr syncing back and forth

    I posted some pics to flickr using Aperture 3, and later added keywords, again using Aperture 3. I couldn't get the new keywords to sync up to my flickr page, something I'd been able to do previously. I hit the broadcast sync button, but it is not adding the new keywords (tags) to Flickr. How is the best and easiest way to sync the keywords in Aperture 3 to Flickr and vise versa from Flickr to Aperture?  I would like it to keep syncing continuously also.
    Thanks

    I'd love an answer to this, as well.
    Using Aperture's primary competitor, the Title of the image in the IPTC data mapped directly to Flickr's title, and the Caption to Flickr's caption. I can't tell what the disconnect is with Flickr-Aperture, but I'd like to know.

  • Aperture and MobileMe Sync

    Syncing photos out of Aperture to a MobileMe Gallery results in missing photos and double photos in the web gallery. Workflow as follows: selected and marked Photos in my Library, clicked MobileMe button, created new MobileMe Gallery, waited sync to be complete, checked result: 305 photos in the web gallery, 435 photos in my Aperture MobileMe album. Seems the sync comes with some bugs and flaws. Help highly appreciated!

    I'm still having trouble with the same problem as described. I've followed the instructions as described below which make perfect sense...
    @ Rienzo: Currently MobileMe will only sync photos with one program at a time. You need to go to www.me.com, go to the gallery page, and for each album change the setting to sync photos from iPhoto to Aperture. The settings button looks like a light switch on the top bar.
    ... After selecting an album and the "light switch", I don't see the option listed to chose Aperture. Under the Album Settings dialog, there are three choices under "Allow", two under "Show", and one under "Advanced" non of which allow the selection with respect to Aperture vs. iPhoto others are seeing; where am I going wrong here?
    OS-X is up to date as are all applications.

  • Aperture and Flickr

    I asked this question before, but I think I was not specific enough.
    When you publish i.e. a project to Flickr a set is created in Flickr and that set is also shown in the Aperture Library. When you look at the metadat of a photo, you can she under "sharing" that it is published to Flickr, so it looks like that this information is stored in the metadata.
    What I would like to do is a search in my whole aperture library for photos that are (or are not) published to Flickr, but I cannot find the specific field in the search criteria. Is this missing, or am I overlooking something?

  • Iphoto and flickr sync is constantly pending

    The flickr album on my MAC shows 321 photos, but on flickr, I can only see 284 items.  I had tried to quit iphoto, reboot the mac, nothing helps.  Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Sean

    Try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Lion and Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto, reset it's various preferences and try again.
    NOTE:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Aperture 3 and flickr title

    Good morning and ..... happy new year.
    I use Aperture 3 and I sync my flickr album with it, but there is a think I don't like: the title in flickr is the version name of the photo. Is there a way to set caption to be the flickr name?
    Thank in advance.

  • Facebook and Flickr with Aperture on Macbook Pro

    I have set up both a Facebook and Flickr account in Aperture.  They work great and like how easy they are to use.  I do have a problem though.
    After using my Macbook, I close the screen and leave it.  When I come back and open the screen, sometimes Aperture gives me an error that says:
    There was a problem connecting to Facebook.
    The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -1.)
    After clearing the message it comes back in an endless loop.  Am I doing something wrong?  Should I exit Aperture before closing the screen evertime?  How can I clear this error without killing the application?
    Thanks.
    Mike T4

    This is not much help, but I don't think it's an infinitely loop. I suspect the number of times you get the message is related to the number of flickr sets you have in Aperture. If you are patient, and click the OK button enough times, it will go away.
    I really don't like force quitting - especially Aperture. I have always been able to "outlast" Aperture by clicking the OK button enough times.

  • Sharing Photo's between Aperture and iPhoto and syncing to iPads, etc

    Here is my problem.
    I have 5 Macs (1 iMac, 4 laptops.) There are 4 people in my family and we have the family pack of iLife. The iMac is where everything sits with a time capsule and Drobo hanging off of it - about 6 TB's of data. Each Mac sync's with a variety of iPods, iTouchs and iPads. All linked to a user. So for example, all my oldest son's devices sync with only his laptop.
    Well, I finally fixed my media (songs, movies, TV shows, etc) problem by leveraging home share in iTunes and authorizing all my Macs. But not so lucky yet for Photo's.
    Here is the my photo dilemma.
    I like Aperture for the editing and ability to handle large libraries better. So I have Aperture installed on the iMac where everything sits. iPhoto is also installed on the iMac and iPhoto is on all 4 other laptops. Prior to moving to Aperture, sharing photo's between computers was relatively easy using sharing in iPhoto - although it appears sharing in iPhoto is different than home share in iTunes. I converted my iPhoto library on the iMac to Aperture - now sharing is a pain in the neck.
    Ideally, a Home Share like feature would be built into Aperture and iPhoto with another feature that would allow you to "check for new photos" on the laptops and pull them into Aperture - but wishful thinking right now.
    So my while my 2 new iPads are awesome - they are basically useless for Photo's as they are synced to 2 laptops that use iPhoto, but all my Photos are in Aperture on the iMac.
    Thoughts anyone????
    Thanks

    What was the question?

  • Users of iPhone photo sync, Aperture, and stacks

    For those who use Aperture and the stack feature, do you have the same problem as me when syncing to your iPhone?
    Here is the thing:
    Stacks in Aperture are used to group related pictures (usually variants of the same picture). In a stack, you then choose the best picture of the stack and identify it as such. This picture is then the only one that is shown in an album once the stack is closed.
    Now if you sync such an album, containing stacks, to your iPhone, the problem is that all pictures in the stack, and not only the best one, is displayed in your iPhone album.
    (Note that I also posted this under the category "iPhone" in this forum.)

    More info:
    This problem exist not with sync of albums on iPhone/iPad, but when syncing SMART ALBUMS.
    If you sync a smart album that contains a stack of pictures, all pictures are put on the iPhone (not only the best picture of the stack as it should).
    Please let me know if you have this problem (or not...)
