Aperture does not support SONY's new DSLR A100!!!

Just bought a SONY's new DSLR A100 and found Aperture does not read the camera's RAW file ( *.arw ). Is there any solution for this or I can only wait until Apple issue a software update for this?

The "format" will undoubtedly be the same or very similar: where the numbers representing each pixel are stored within the file, and where the metadata is kept. But what differs is the mapping of the number values to (I'm simplifying here a bit) actual colours. Different camera models from the same manufacturer have different sensors, and these output on different scales.
What Apple (and others) have to do is work out the ratios required for a given camera model, to get the right colours. Whilst you could probably edit the properties file yourself to make Aperture and MacOS recognise the file format, you'd have to do some work to decide the correct numbers (in some cases, you can use others work - there was an explanation on this forum previously about using DCraw source to determine good starting values for an Olympus camera.)
The DSLR-A100 has a different sensor from the 5D. There's another 4MP for starters. (Actually, I just had a glance at the latest DCraw code, and it looks like the A100 raw file is treated differently from other KM and Sony cameras. So perhaps they have got a new format.)

Image cannot be rendered because Aperture does not support image format

Dear all,
I have installed apple Aperture 3.03 and the complete Nick software plug-in selection:
• Dfine 2.0 for Aperture
• Color Efex Pro 3.0 Complete for Aperture
• Silver Efex Pro for Aperture
• Sharpener Pro 3.0 for Aperture
• Viveza 2 for Aperture
History
Until a few days ago the system was running ok / no notable issues on performance. / all pug in seem to run good / no issues. Also
• I Run OSX10.4/ Aperture 3.03 ( 32Bit mode)
• My library contains just over 10000 images / approximately 140GB
• I have recently updated the OSX software update including the security update 2010-005
• as well as the Snow leopard graphic update 1.0
• As far as I am aware all updates where automatically recommended by OSX Software update ( no manual intervention).
• As far as I remember after update the system still was running ok but honestly I can not tell you how many times the Nick Plug in started out of Aperture.
After all, Several times I continued using the system / still no noticeable problem until the following was happening:
Problem:
After creating with "PT gui" a panoramic image File type: "TIF" Pixel size: 5112 × 2556 (13,1 MP) I imputed this file in to Aperture (drag and drop). During the attempt to eddied this file with "Nick Define 2.0" the system was hamming up No response for several minutes from Dfine 2.0 / Aperture" At the end I had to "force quit" the applications.
After the consequential reopening of Aperture I tried again to eddied images with any Nick software Plug-In but each time Aperture prepares any image previously stored in my Library ti open the Pug in the following Error message appears:
*"This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format"*
Currently non of my previously in the library safed images can be opened in a Nick software Plug-In this applies to all file types I have tied " Raw, tif, jpg"
• I am still able to eddied normally with Aperture ( so far I do not find any other issue)
• A newly imported Raw image after being taken with my EOS 5D can be edited in the completed Nick software Plug-In selection ( so far I do not find any other issue)
The following actions have been taken to overcome the issue (all not successful):
• I restored my Library out of my back Up ( to previous time of event ( no Time machine back up)
• Uninstallation of all Nick software Plug-In selection
• Uninstallation Aperture Reinstallation Aperture / Nick software Plug-In selection
• Repairing the library ( all three possibilities)
• installation of latest EOS utilitys
Questions
• Can you support me to overcome this issue?
• Have you heard similar issues of Nick user Running the Aperture plug-ins?
For me it is really strange that even after replacing the the library in my normally not connect back up the problem still exists (this should be not affected by the event as the back up was not done any more) / new imported images are editable with the Plug-In.
I would be happy if you could support me in this issue.
Best regards,
Matthias
PS: I have reported this issue to Apple (via Aperture feedback) as well as contacted the Nick software support and currently waiting for feedback.

Dear Ma-Le / All
I have just had the same problem
I use
• Aperture 3.03 with a iMac 2.8 Intel Core 2 Duo with all files on external hard disks (mac extended fomat as apple suggests) with referenced masters.
• Camera Nikon D300, with probably 75,000+ images on 2 hard drives
• Photoshop CS2 with PhotoTools 2.5 plugin
This has been working perfectly until yesterday when the system froze when I was using PhotoTools 2.5 with Photoshop CS2 - as a result of which I resorted to a force quit.
Since then on most of my files it has not been possible to use an external editor.
A message appears saying: *Editing Error - This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support image format*.
The problem seems to apply to the attempted use of any external editor (including Noise Ninja)
The following have each been tried, all unsuccessfully:
- Using each of Aperture's library 3 first aid options
- Rebuilding directory using Diskwarrior
- Checking for virus using Virus Barrier X4
- Defragmenting library hard disk using TechTool pro
- Changing permissions settings
- Using Disk Utility first aid to repair permissions and checking main disk
- Removing some plist elements when open 'show package contents' of library
- Setting up a(n almost clean) new system, with newly loaded version of Aperture, with a new library from a vault saved prior to the crash when the problem first occured
Several things seem to me to be totally bizarre:
1 - The problem is the same on the other library hard disk which was not in use at the time
2 - The problem still occurs when a back up vault saved prior to this problem is loaded - using a new hard disk with a new system and a newly reloaded and upgraded Aperture software
3- The problem seems inconsistent. It appears to affect some photos but not all. Even from the same shoot, some photos can be edited using an external editor, whilst others cannot (but as far as i can tell most of the photos in a particular album seem to be consistently affected)
4- The only way around it seems to be if I import a new (copy image) from the original master. Then everything works ok, and I can successfully edit that copy image in photoshop / phototools plug-in.
I am beginning to wonder whether what has been corrupted is Aperture's ability to make copies from the master file which it then uses with the external editor (I have no real idea whether this is correct)
Does anyone have any ideas or solutions - or has anyone else been suffering a similar problem?
Eric
PS: As a professional photographer this problem is a really serious issue for me - and I really don't really want to go to Lightroom or Capture One

Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support

Editing Error: This image cannot be rendered for editing because Aperture does not support the image format.
I have been having this issue when trying to open photos in CS4. It only seems to be affecting images from the last year or so, although I'm using the same cameras (Canon 7D, 5D, and S90) as before. My library is large, going back to year 2000, and all the older images seem to work fine, but most all of the recent files display this error when trying to open them is CS4. I've tried the methods described in other threads and on the support website, namely starting aperture while holding option and command, pulling up the options to rebuild the library in various ways. I've done all three options, the last two twice, with no change. This is very frustrating to not be able to use the program in the way I had planned... Any ideas? I'm wondering if my library is simply too large- although I'm not sure if breaking the library into smaller chunks is the best way to go. I prefer having all my photos together. I have found that iMovie fails to operate properly when events get too large. Is this a similar problem?

Again, thanks for the input. As for the first suggestion, when I import without renaming they all work, but as of late, all appear to work no problem. It seems like it was a block of time from roughly October 2009 through November 2010 where most all the files imported during this date demonstrate the problem. As for the second suggestion, I've tried both 8 and 16 bit TIFF and PSD file types selected in the editor preferences, with no luck.
My next move has been to relocate the offending files out of their current location to another location (they are referenced, not managed). In doing this, I encountered what seems to be a file access or privelege error message, although about 20% of the files were moved, and in doing so, it seems to have solved the problem for those. But I don't have a good way of isolating the involved images outside of Aperture, and I don't want to move them with Finder anyways since that would ruin the referencing.
This bug is getting so complicated I'm ready to throw my hands in the air and just go back to Lightroom. Aperture has so much potential, especially in regards to integration with ipods, iPads, other Macs, etc. but in the 4 months I've been using it, I have spent WAY more time addressing buggy issues like this one than the amount of time supposedly saved using Aperture instead of Lightroom.

Aperture does not support the more expensive Lumix cameras from Panasonic!

Aperture does not support RAW in the GF!, G1 or GH! cameras - cameras hailed as breakthroughs. Does anyone know why or when it may do so?

I believe that you posted in the AirPort forum by mistake. It appears that you intended to post this in the Aperture forum.

Aperture does not support Pentax K 3 RAW format. Any advises?

I just bought a Pentax K - 3 camera. Aperture does not support RAW format. Does anyone else have the same problem? Is there going to be Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update for Pentax K 3?
I would be very pleased if someone could give me some advise,
Heikki

Only Apple knows when and if a specific camera's Raw format will be supported and they never say before they release the update.
In the meantime there a few different ways to work around this. One is to shoot Raw & JPG and use the JPG now and the Raw if and when the camera is supported. The other is to convert to DNG.
In the meantime let Apple know you want support for the camera, Aperture->Provide Aperture Feedback. Don;t know how much good is does but it can;t hurt.

The list of supported cameras is here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5955

Sony ericson suite does not support sony ericson W150 yendo phone

sir can anyone help me with this problem....why can't the latest sony ericson suite don't support yendo phones....and why does yendo phones, being removed at the phone choices here at sony ericson....

The Yendo simply doesn't have a full PC interface, so it's not supported by PC suite/companion, similarly to other phones such as the W395.

Image cannot be rendered for editing b/c Aperture does not support this for

It's been about 3 weeks now. I've tried almost everything (short of uninstalling aperture). All of a sudden, when i tried to run my nik plugins through aperture I get this error message.
Im using a 450d, shooting RAW and never had a problem in the past. I've tried repairing, rebuilding and inspecting my library. I've tried restarting, i've tried merging it with a new library. I've tried updating everything, all to no avail.
Anyone have any advice?
Cheers

Welcome to the discussions!
You mention that you get an error message, what is the message?
Try the following steps,
Delete you Aperture user preferences as detailed on the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics page;

Have you checked that your Nik plug-ins are up to date wi the latest release of Aperture, 3.1.1?
Let us know how this goes.

Confirmed: Aperture Does Not Support FZ30 RAW

Just a quick note to let everyone know that the Panasonic FZ30's RAW files are not recognized by Aperture.

I have emailed Panasonic asking them to work with apple to get support for panasonic RAW incorporated. I'd email Apple a well, but I've done it before without result.

Aperture does not finalize import of new files

Since the latest upgrade of Aperture version 3.6 i have experienced that when trying to do an import either via connecting the camera or inserting the SD card directly in my iMac, that even though Aperture starts the import and doesn't finalize the it. This results in an incomplete import list, which is fairly useless.
Different tries also result in different amounts of pictures imported. Sometimes it imports the first 30 something it pre-loads the entire list of approx 2300 pictures, but only indicates the picture reference not the actual picture.

Have you tried to find out, if this import problem happens only with your current Aperture library?
Try to narrow down the problem:
Can you import successfully into a new Aperture library, created for testing?
Can you import successfully, if you are using a different card or a different card reader?
Can you import, if you are using Image Capture or iPhoto instead of Aperture?
Can you import from a different user account?

Aperture does not support Small Raw files from Canon EOS 5D MK II

Hi,
I recently bought a new Canon EOS 5D MK II camera and started shooting on SmallRaw format, but Aperture simply refused to process those files. It only shows a preview of around 3 inches only. I don't know what's wrong either with my OS 10.5.6 or Aperture 2.
Now that I've returned to Digital Photo Professional from Canon to process the image. Please help, I don't want to break my workflow.

Aperture does not support raw files from my Leica d-lux 6.

When will Aperture support RAW files from a Leica d-lux 6?

You can download a free copy of Adobe DNG Converter. You then can use this program to convert the D Lux RAW files into DNG RAW files. Aperture will be able to read the DNG files. This is a bit of pain but it will work until Apple supports the D Lux in its usual glacial time span.

Hi,
I purchased Huawei Dongle and trying to connect with my new MacBook Pro (OS- Mountain Lion) USB port 3.0 but unfortunately it does not support.
When I plugged in my macbook the power is flowing in dongle due green light blinking twice in every 3 sec but no connection found or diver shown.
Please let me know how I have to use it. I got some suggestion for USB hub 2.0 but It does not make any sense and driver installation.
So please suggest proper direction to use it and provide link to install any driver.
Thanks
Tauheed Ahmad

Yes Clinton I did same, but they were (Huawei customer support) surprised about this problem, They behave like they have no idea about USB 2.0 and 3.0 knowledge. They handsUp that reason I posted my problem in this forum.
So is there any better solution to use any mediator between these USB version handling, Please let me know.
Thanks
Tauheed
