Aperture can't import, but iPhone can - why?

Importing from my SD card works fine on iPhone, but not on Aperature. The SD card shows up in Aperature, but not the files. I am stumped. Any ideas or solutions?

This may or may not have to do with my image numbers have recently flipped over meaning last week I was at DSC_9985 and now I'm at DSC_0300. Is there anything that I am supposed to do so Aperture doesn't get picture numbers mixed up since now there will be another DSC_0300 and so forth in my library? I first noticed the problem Friday night when I went to import photos from a shoot. It was during that import that the numbers flipped.

  • Aperture hangs while importing from iPhone

    Hello,
    Aperture 3.5.1 hangs on MacOS 10.9.2 after importing pictures from the iPhone.
    All pictures are in fact imported, but the process is never finished and the dialog, if I want to delete the imported originals never pops up.
    When I unplug the iPhone, I won't get an error alert. I also can't quit the application. It looks like hanging in an endless loop.
    any idea how to fix that?
    Thanks
    matthias

    There may be a photo or video on your iPhone, that cannot be imported and needs to be deleted from your iPhone, matthias. Do you remember when this problem started, so you can identify the videos or photos that are causing this? Can Image Capture import without hanging?
    Have you installed the most recent iTunes update? It is supposed to fix problems with syncing to devices.
    If none of the applications can import from your iPhone, I would try to troubleshoot the phone:

  • I cannot Get Media after seeing thumbnails when trying to import from iPhone. Why?

    I connect my iPhone to my PC and open Photoshop Elements 11 Organizer. I click Import and select my iPhone (using current iOS version). It searches and finds all photos. I click get media and I get the following error: "Elements cannot obtain files from this device. Please ensure that the device is connected properly, or that the battery is charged, and try again."
    I click Ok and the import fails.
    In the attached screen shot you can see the import process about to begin, but the error box pop up over top.
    Please help so I can import my iPhone pics.

    I think I may haev solved the problem. I imported in chunks and found that one of the files was throwing off the import. Then the problem resolved and the import worked.
    I still get duplicates when importing from the iPhone. Is this still a bug?
    I solve that by searching for *.jpg and *.mov with file names "-1" (excluding "edited") and then delete them. That works, but the bug is still a problem.

  • Aperture hangs on import from iPhone or camera

    Since a few weeks I can't import from my iPhone or digital camera anymore.
    If I try to import Photos from my iPhone or camera Aperture hangs forever. The Photos should be imported as referenced ones to a folder on a network share on a Mac OS X Server. This works fine, if the Picture source is i.e. a memory card or a HDD. And it has been working with the iPohne and camera before.
    What happens is, that Aperture creates a file like "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" with 0 Bytes in the target folder. And than it hangs.
    From this point on there is a permanent network traffic, and reasonable CPU load on both Macs (the kernel_task on the client and the AppleFileServer task on the Server). If I delete the "..importing.IMG0815.JPG" file it is instantly recreated. This continues even if I kill the Aperture application. The only way to stop this is to unmount the Network Volume.
    Does anyone has an idea what this may cause?

    Aperture, Lightroom etc. are all designed to make use of direct import. They are safer than copying your files via the OS tools for the simple reason they access the cards read-only. If you use OS tools to copy then you are accessing the cards read-write which is far more dangerous if something goes wrong.
    Culling your images during import saves time and disk space also. Copying your images directly and then importing is a WASTE OF YOUR TIME.
    We disagree. Although such apps are indeed "designed" for direct import, my empirical observations since the earliest days of digital imagery have been that interacting indirectly using an app like Aperture is much, much less stable than directly interacting via Finder when properly done. One can peruse literally hundreds of digital image threads including this one to see overwhelming real-world evidence of what I am talking about.

  • When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    When importing raw photos from Nikon D90 aperture seems to automatically adjust exposure darker. why? How can I stop this?

    This is typical of the default NEF RAW conversion of Aperture and the best thing you can do is set up a few presets to apply to all of your RAW images to get a tone curve and colors that is pleasing to you as a default. The in camera JPEGs / embedded JPEGs (that you first see during import) are treated to the Nikon "Picture Control" settings that are set on the camera - the RAW's as interpreted by Aperture are not.
    I have written extensively and even have a few downloadable presets on my site - look for NEF...

    I can't get the menue I am used to in iTunes. It only states "Klargjør iPhone" (Norwegian). Something like "Start up your iPhone". I've done this several times, restarted the iPhone and my computer, but I can't get ready to sync... The phone is working ok and my backup data is restored into the phone.

    Hi there,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.

  • HT1386 I get on iTunes and sync all my music on to my iPhone. I then get on my iPhone and there isn't any music on my phone. I have updated my phone and iTunes on my computer but I can seem to put my music on my iPhone. Why?

    I get on iTunes and sync all my music on to my iPhone. I then get on my phone and there isn't any music on there. I have updated both my computer and phone but I cant seem to get my music on to my iPhone. Why?

    Here are some things to double-check.  The first two are optional:
    On the summary tab of your iTunes sync settings check "Sync only checked songs and videos"
    In your music library check all the songs you want to sync to your phone
    Make sure there are no exclamation points next to any of the songs you want to sync to your phone
    Be sure to authorize your computer for all Apple IDs used for any purchased music you want to sync to your phone (in Store>Authorize This Computer)
    Check "Sync Music" on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings

    Thanks Eric, but that was already turned on. I just now tried turning it off and on again, no change. Actually, I"m more interested in seeing the names than the pictures. I now only see the phone numbers and generic avatars where pics would be.

    If you want to see what is in a file that is backed up by time machine then you have to restore the entire file. Having said that I have had good experience with Time Machine and individual files... if the file is there then all of it's components are almost for sure there. A way to get around this in Aperture would be to use referenced images. The images then still exist as individual files and can be backed up and restored individually. You would have to do so on a file by file basis though and your album information would still only be saved within the Aperture library.

  • Our exchange server crashed and we lost all contact and calendar data.  We found an app to get the contacts off of people's phone to import but can't find the same for calendar.  How do I get my calendar info off my phone and in to new exchange server?

    You'd have to think through this, but it seems like if you are using Outlook, and the items vanished from the Outlook client as well as the server,that you could re-populate Outlook using iTunes. 

  • I can't import MXF files shot on a Canon C300 into FCP 10.1.2.  I have the Canon plug in for MXF file to FCP import but FCPX still doesn't recognize MXF files when I try to import. Premiere works fine importing MXF on the same computer.

    Russ and Luis,
    I did uninstall and re-install Canon XF Utility and the Canon FCPX plug in.   Still no luck.  I checked the CanonXF64.RADPlug folder is on my computer in the Rad Plugins folder in application support  This is where it is supposed to be as far as I can figure out. 
    Another piece of the puzzle is that  footage shot on a Canon C300 in 2013 and  I reimported today and it DOES import into FCP10.1.3.   Footage shot on a different Canon C300 filmed this summer will NOT import into FCPX.  The latter will import into Premiere. But I am trying to work in FCPX, but maybe I shouldn’t be??
    Any ideas?  (screen shots below)
    Thanks.
    Peace, Huey
    FYI Here is what Canon says
      "There is another trick that works sometimes though.  Try uninstalling the plugin and XF Utility.  Then, install the latest XF Utility, followed by the plugin, in that order."
    I did do this but no results.  Otherwise they say I need to wait for a new plugin.
    Here's 2014 Canon C300 files does NOT import to FCPX
    Here's 2013 Canon C300 files does import into FCPX.  I thought it was Contents folder but another set of footage shot on C300 does import and there is no contents folder for that.

    Marco,
    is your main system language set to English? If not, change the language to English in the "Language&Region" System Preferences  (see: Re: I bought Aperture in a box et can't upgrade from 3.4.5 to 3.5.). Then sign back into AppStore and reload the Updates panel.
    Other things that could prevent the update are, if you moved Aperture from the Applications folder or renamed it. Then put it back.
