That crash report is a well known problem.
A framework in your library is missing. Usually this is caused by installing Final Cut. Did you recently install this?
The safest way to restore the framework to your library would be to reinstall your MacOS.  If you have a backup of your system from the time before the error occured, you could also try to restore the PluginManager.framework to your System Library from your TimeMachine backup.
You need to restore the directory /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework

    I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto ’09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn’t need it).
    I am totally happy with the way iPhoto organizes my photos and how I can work with iMovie to create slide shows with music from iTunes, etc.
    I have been shooting mostly high resolution jpegs and I continue to learn more and more about photography, post processing etc. I realize that the small adjustments I can make in iPhoto are good, and are adequate most of the time. However, a have started to experiment with shooting RAW images and would like to go the next step, ie. post processing.I am totally technically challenged and need SIMPLE, INTUITIVE programs and am certainly NOT anywhere ready for Photoshop CS whatever!
    After having these programs sit on my computer, I decided to try to see if I could figure them out. When I opened Aperture, this is what first comes up.
    “Welcome to Aperture 3.2
    Your library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of Aperture. Once upgraded, you will not be able to use this library with previous versions of Aperture.
    Upgrading a library from previous versions of Aperture 3 generally takes a few minutes or less, though larger libraries will take longer. After that, Aperture 3.2 will upgrade your library's thumbnails, but you can use the application during that time.
    Tip: To open a different library, quit Aperture and hold the Option key down while starting Aperture
    Current Library Location:
    Jadzia (home)   -----Pictures------Aperture Library
                                                      QUIT             UPGRADE”
    I have heard horror stories  about moving your entire library to Aperture, ending up with 2 libraries, etc. etc. hence my previous reluctance in attempting Aperture. In addition, many of my photography friends are saying: Go with Lightroom 3.....you’ll love it!
    So here is my dilemma.  I don’t want to mess around with my iPhoto library. All I want to be able to do, is to isolate a few photos, export them to Aperture, Elements, and work on them there, then bring them back into iPhoto.
    Can I do this? Should I forget about Aperture and Elements and look at purchasing yet another program like Lightroom?

    Export those few photos via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop.  Then import them into the Aperture library. That would keep one copy in your iPhoto library and another in your Aperture library to edit, etc.
    You can use Photoshop Elements 9 from within iPhoto as your editor of choice. However, if you edit a raw file in iPhoto with PSE9 the resulting edited version must be saved outside the iPhoto Library and imported back in as a new file.  For editing jpegs just do a Save (not a Save As) and it all will be kept within iPhoto. 
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • If I move a picture from one project to another in aperture why doesn't the jpeg change folders if all my pictures are referenced?

    I started importing all my pictures into Aperture and have been debating whether to use a managed or referenced library.  I'm leaning toward referenced, but before import everything that way, I do a couple of "test drives".
    In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't.  Anyone know why?  Is there a way to make this happen?  Is it bad that I want this to happen?  Should I just use a managed library.  I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
    Any thoughts?
    Mark

    In Aperture, I moved a photo from one project to another expecting that the jpeg in finder would move from the original folder to the new one, but it didn't. 
    Mark, Aperture does not store the originals organized by project, but by the date of the Import Session. So moving an image to a different project will not change, were the original file is stored.
    This has a big advantage for backing up the originals. If they never move or change, you do not have to backup the originals other than directly after importing, if your library is referenced. And even incremental backups of a managed library are quicker.
    Is there a way to make this happen?
    You can always use the command "File > Relocate" to move the original files anywhere you want.
    Is it bad that I want this to happen?  Should I just use a managed library.  I like having control of the actual files (thus wanting to go with a referenced library).
    If it is bad, will depend on why you want to have control of your originals. If you just want to know where they are, it is o.k., or if you don't have enough space on the drive with the library and need to split the library across several drives. But it would be bad to move, edit, or access the referenced originals in any way. Let Aperture do the handling,  or you will be risking broken references.
    Aperture has several buil-in ways to show you the original: The "M" key will switch the Browser to the original, "File > Export > Original" will give you an exact copy of the original, or you can relocate the file to another folder.  I simply open the aperture Library in iPhoto, when I want to view my managed originals. iPhoto has a command "File > Reveal in Finder > Original" that will show you also the managed originals in the "Masters" folder inside the Aperture/iPhoto Library package.

  • Aperture 3.0.1  - the more I use it the worse it gets - here is a new one

    Well, at least for me it is. Running Aperture 3.0.1 with the latest proskit installed. I am using the program in split screen mode, in which I have the viewer stacked above the browser and underneath the browse I have the keywords showing. This is what I am experiencing:
    1. I open Aperture, so far so good.
    2. I will select a smart album and start browsing through the images.
    3. I will run it in preview mode to move through the pictures a bit quicker.
    4. I see an image I want to edit.
    5. I press the "p" key to get out of preview mode and then select Adjustments to start my editing. There have been times (and the frequency has been increasing since installing the proskit pkg) when none of the editing options are displayed. Instead I get an empty section. Pressing the "p" key multiple times does nothing. Checking the Activity button shows near zero activity in Aperture.
    6. I shut down the program. I then restart the program.
    7. Same set up, press the "p" key to be in preview mode. Find an image to edit. Press "p" again, this time editing tools are displayed.
    8. I make some modifications to the image, and then I choose to move on, but can't. When I select another image in the browser the image is not updated in the viewer. I will select multiple images in the browser and yet the image in the viewer does not change. I check the activity monitor. It shows near zero activity from Aperture.
    9. Restart Aperture, the process repeats itself. The program is now totally useless. I can only use it for a minute or two before one of the two events just described happens.
    I have tried not pressing the "p" button. No luck
    I have tried restarting Aperture. No luck
    I have tried restarting my system. No luck
    I have checked permissions. No luck
    I have rebuilt the database. No luck
    I am at the end of my wits. Any suggestions from anybody?
    Thanks in advance.

    Coqui-, I find myself in the same predicament, both Macs. I didn't use A2 so the library conversion issue was never a factor to me, nor do I use Faces. My only issue with A3 is its ability to be used for any kind of intuitive workflow.
    I exported seven referenced projects as libraries and imported them as projects into a new referenced library. If I straighten the horizon on six of them and then attempt to do anything else in A3 it beachballs for more than just a few seconds.
    If I open the same six in Camera Raw 5 and apply a similar correction I'm not slowed down at all. The app remains responsive and "instant" even if Bridge/CR/Ps is batching. That suggests that Aperture's lack of performance is Aperture itself rather and the computer's abilities.
    Even if A3 is the only app running it beachballs after just a few adjustments, including metadata, are made. At this point it's unusable. I'm going to try clearing the caches tonight. I've already installed all the updates, fixed permission, rebuilt libraries, etc.
    Come on 3.1.0, please get this thing fixed.

  • Does AppleTV2 limit the number of photos it will display when streaming from Aperture when streaming to the TV?

    I am new to AppleTV. I bought it and an iPad2 at about the same time. I've been an Aperture user for years but not so much lately. I am having fits with Aperture crashing as soon as I open it. I mean on the first click or before. I simply can't get into Aperture at all during the last 20 tries or so. I'm really rather freaked out about it. I have a wedding to upload and a few other recent events totally thousands of photos that I can't get off the SD cards. Thankfully I'm not a professional but my niece is anxious to see her photos nonetheless.
    I don't know if the galleries in MobileMe even exist anymore but that was my idea as an alternative place to try to access photos from my computer to see them on AppleTV. It might have been my high level of frustration and despair but I could not find a way to move the photos to MobileMe from Aperture (on the day I could get into Aperture). Export does not list MobileMe as an optional destination. It's been too long since I sent anything to MobileMe and I can't remember how I did it.
    In the past and even today I've successfully accessed a few of my photos in Aperture through my AppleTV2. Thankfully, Aperture does not need to be open to see the photos. However, my problem is that when I stream through AppleTV I can only get to a miniscule fraction of my photos. I have a selection of projects that will appear on my TV but the vast majority of the projects list only ONE photo in the project when there are dozens, hundreds or thousands in the various projects.
    I tried making some new projects and that partially worked. Some of the ones I just made still only show one photo but I made one with about a thousand scenic photos that sort of worked. I loaded it to play during a party today and about 500 were listed in the folder when I started the slideshow. I didn't count them as they played, of course, but it certainly seemed they replayed more than I wanted them too in spite of the five second time selection. I will move that to 10 seconds next time. What I really want to do is have access to large groups of different photos I have in Aperture. I want to pull in a mix of trip locations, wildlife, scenic shots, etc. It would be nice if Aperture picked up Smart Albums and not just projects.
    I have multiple problems going on: computer freezes, cursor moves but won't click and keyboard becomes unresponsive, flashing artifacts and horizontal lines, CRASHES galore. Right now I'm feeling kind of panicked it's going to crash before I hit "post message". If you can offer any guidance in any of these areas, your help will be deeply appreciated.

    John, thanks for pointing out that pathway to send files to MobileMe. I was looking under Export.
    Yes, I know that some of my concerns may be better suited to other forums but all of my problems hinge around updating to Aperture 3 and Snow Leopard at the same time. Therefore I have no clue if it's one or the other or a toxic combination of both that has brought me such misery. My problems cross into several categories. I've prowled the forums (communities) for many months looking for advice.
    If I can ever get back into Aperture I will surely try your "update previews" suggestion. I did the Repair Permissions and it just finished as I was typing here. It opened Aperture for a couple of seconds and crashed in the background. I got the same crash with the Repair Database. I'm now doing the third Option/Command option in Aperture of rebuilding the database. I don't know what to do if those repairs/rebuilds don't work.
    I have the program on my number one hard drive with over 300 GB free space. My libraries are on my second 1 TB HD with 369 GB of free space. I've been accessing Aperture with nothing else running and that doesn't help. I have four 512 MB DDR2 FB-DIMM cards. I would love to have more RAM but that's all I've got right now. I also wonder if my Graphics Card is toast for the new OS and version of Aperture. I don't know enough about computers to figure this out and I'm hoping someone will have the solution I need.

  • How do I delete files from the start up disk?

    I keep getting the messsage that my start up disk is full and I shoudl delte files, which I have tried to do, by putting stuff inthe trash and emptying it, but that does not seem to be enough and I keep getting the message. ireally don't ahve much stored on my computer except for a lot of photos. Could the photos be the problem?

    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
    iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
    To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

    I am having the same problem. I have been using Aperture 2.1.3 for quite some time now. A week ago it began to refuse to open at all. This may have occurred while Time Machine was running a back up. I tried using "command option" with no success. I deleted the preference file. I then reinstalled Aperture 2.0 from the original disk with no success. "Command Option" refuses to open Aperture. This is really getting worrisome. I really want to be able to access my photos! Why are other people having this problem right not? Here is my crash report for those who can decipher it.

  • How do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    how do I clear the start up drive to download the new operating system

    Here are some general tips to keep your Mac's hard drive trim and slim as possible
    You should never, EVER let a computer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
    With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
    If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
    Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
    Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
    If you use iPhoto or Aperture, both have its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
    If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
    If you are an iMovie/ Final Cut user, both apps have their own individual Trash location that needs to be emptied, too!
    If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
    Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
    Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
    STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
    Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
    Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
    Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
    To find other large files, download an app called Omni Disk Sweeper.

    Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.

    When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
    Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
    move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
    If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.

  • Changing the start disk on Mac Pro?

    On my Mac Pro the start disk is the smallest of two disks and it is packed. This is become a huge problem. I need space because of film production. As it is now I cannot install new programs, which I need. So how do I solve this problem? Fast.
    E

    Dunno. Buy yourself a bigger hard drive install and format it . I think the most you can do in 1 drive is 3 TB, and I think it's SATA II (tho' Sata 3 will work just fine) . As for brand names, I can't really say
    Really?
    1. you don't need more than 100GB  usually which is why a $82 128GB Samsung EVO is perfect
    2. don't store media and data on the boot drive.
    2a. Move all your data files and such to another drive.
    4TB is the largest but about to be outdone soon.
    A WD Blue 1TB goes for $65 or less and is fine for a basic drive.
    Multiple backups and backup methods: TimeMachine, clone, etc.
    2 yrs old is probably a MacPro5,1 meaning it can also boot from a PCIe SSD controller if you want, use another SSD for Aperture and such, and still have your 4 SATA drive bays free for some 1TB or larger drive sets.

  • When I try to open my aperture library, I get the message "There was an error opening the database for the library "/Users/alyssabouma/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary". help!

    When I try to open my Aperture Library, I get this message: "There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/alyssabouma/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the library....Help!!

    lyssalou,
    what is your Aperture version and what is your MacOS X version?
    What happened, before this problem occurred? Did you import images, install software, move the Aperture library?
    I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the library....Help!!
    What do you mean by reinstalling the library? Did you reinstall Aperture?
    You might start the trouble shooting with using the Aperture Library First Aid Tools - repairing the permissions, repairing the library, and rebuilding, if necessary, see:
    Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    Before rebuilding the library, make a backup of the Aperture Library, if you do not have one.

  • I am told that the start-disc of my Mac Air is full and that I have to delete files. What do I do ?

    I am told that the start-disc of my Mac Air is full and that I have to delete files. What do I do ?

    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
    iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Aperture-3 hangs and the system too, while editing in 100%

    I am not sure about other people have the same issue,
    Just wanted to explore if any of you have / had the same issue.
    I use Macbook Pro 13" (i5 & 4GB RAM), Recently installed aperture-3 from mac store.
    I usually shoot in RAW and do the rest with app-3.
    In recent days, my aperture and my system hands while editing any RAW image, mostly while using brushes (for sharpening / polarization).
    Coincidentally or not, it happened all the times when i have the pis in 100% zoom-in condition.
    If you experienced similar issues please share and let know hoe you resolved it... Also requesting experts in this group to throw some light on this subject.
    Thanks in advance
    Munish

    Hello munish,
    I'd try some diagnostics first, before you reinstall.
    Macbook Pro 13" (i5 & 4GB RAM)
    I had the same setup as you - it worked great with Snowleopard, but as soon as I upgraded to Lion Aperture was running at a snail's pace and completely useless. I added 4 GB RAM and all was back to normal. Also, if your harddrive is very full, performance may go down. Keep at least 10% of your drive empty. How full is your disk right now?
    To check if RAM might be an issue on your machine, start the Activity monitor (Applications -> Utilities) and look at the memory usage while Aperture is running. Don't run any other apps simultaniously, that are heavy on RAM, like Safari.
    And run a hardware check: Using Apple Hardware Test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1509
    If you cannot find a hardware problem - hopefully not! try the usual trouble shooting measures in turn, for corruption of some files in your Aperture Library may cause similar symptoms, see Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
    If you want to reinstall Aperture as described in the post that Nilsemann pointed to - since you installed your Aperture from the AppStore - then you need to enter the following command in a Terminal window after cleaning the libraries before you reinstall Aperture:
         Sudo pkgutil -forget com.apple.pkg.GarageBand
    That will ensure that all recent update packages will be deactivated and you can update the newly installed installed Aperture.app again to the most recent version. You will be prompted for your admin password when you enter the command.
    Regards

  • After round trip to CS5 Aperture is not becoming the active window

    After I complete my edits in CS5 I command W and save and the file returns to aperture with adjustments etc but aperture doesnt become the active window so I have to click on it to start off the next part of my workflow. Unless I am mistaken there is something going wrong here as before when i used aperture on completion of the round trip I was back active in an active window where I started off. Anyone got any idea's with what I am doing wrong?  E

    If you were using CS5 and Aperture in SL, I think you are mistaken.  There is nothing about those keystrokes to cancel CS5 being the front application.  If you close CS5, then Aperture will be the front application, assuming you have not interimly opened another app.  I would not expect it to be different in Lion.  My use of Lion is currently testing another external editior, so haven't installed my Adobe Design Premium suite in Lion yet, but would not expect different behavior from that in SL.
