Aperture post import Issue - whats going on?

Hi all.
I've just imported a number of folders containing photos using the 'import files and folders as events' or something similar.
Now it's finished, it seems to have overwritten previously imported photos - example below.
Project A should contain 30 photos imported photos from my underwater - imported a week ago without any issues.
Project B should contain 7,000 photos imported from folders and files from over a few years from my DSLR - imported tonight.
After import, I selected Folder A (hoping to see underwater photos), and they start changing before my eyes! They physically swapped out for photos i'd imported tonight (Project B) in front of my very eyes!!!
Anyone know how to revert or fix this???
Thanks in advance/

Hi Clem
At the time of the issue, the physical master files were on an iOmega Home Network Cloud Edtion NAS.
I imported these into Aperture so I would keep my 'master', then there would be another in USER/PICTURES/APERTURE/APERTURE.LIBRARY (or whatever it's called). I was hoping for time machine then to back up the library which contatins the photos and adjustments etc, and my NAS would contain the orginal from my camera - this is also back-up daily with a secondary NAS.
I think the issue has arisen when I've imported subsequent batches from pre-built folders (built by a non-aperture import tool). The comand 'import files and folders as projects' (or whatever it's called) has mismatched the referenced/managed libraries that Aperture uses.
So I will start again, but I will have to purchased some sort of UPS system moving forward.
Sorry for the "(or whatever it's called)" but I'm hoping you get the idea - I'm repling to you when not at home in front of my machine.

Can anyone tell me whats going on? Crystal Report Exporting issue

Hi,
I am having a issue with the way that CR exports a report. It was working GREAT until we restarted our server. At which point a 2 page CR exported to a PDF began to display enlarged and over 21 pages. The code never changed and if exporting from the VS CR tool it previews and exports perfectly. Can anyone tell me whats going on? Could a install of Acrobat Reader 8 caused this? or anything else for that matter? Any thoughts would be a great help cause it might help me think of something I have over looked.
Thanks
Jeremy

it would not be install of Adobe that would cause this, however a changed printer driver may. Has the printer driver changed? Do you see any difference on the rpeort if you set the option "No Printer? (File menu, select Page setup).
When you say the report is now 21 pages, do you mean it has more data? Or has the format changed such that it is 21 pages long. The latter would again point to printer driver...

Importing Photos from Aperture to iPhoto Issue

I am using Aperture 2 and am seeing a behavior I don't understand. My photos are now in the Aperture library and I also have a new, nearly empty iPhoto library (I archived my old iPhoto library after importing all the files to Aperture).
The behavior comes up when I want to move a file back to iPhoto. If I go to iPhoto, open the Aperture browser and drag the photo to iPhoto, I get a much smaller picture than the original, and smaller than if I instead export the version from Aperture and import it into iPhoto.
Example: I have a JPEG that is 1.8Mb and 2560 x 1920 in in Aperture. When I drag it to iPhoto from the Aperture browser in iPhoto, it becomes a 230kb picture at 1280x960. If I export and import, the file size changes a little (down to 1.4Mb), but the resolution remains at 2560x1920.
Aren't you supposed to be able to drag the full-sized image to iPhoto using the Aperture browser?
Thanks.

"Full size" makes reference to the original pixel dimensions of the photo coming from the camera. In my case I have a 4.0 megapixel camera that shoots 1704 x 2272. This would mean that Aperture would be creating full size previews at those pixel dimensions. This wouldn't make much sense for me because I'm not shooting RAW. Previews are primarily for photographers who shoot RAW, but want to keep JPG versions so either full RAW files can be stored offline, or so they can quickly view the JPG previews in quick preview mode.
(Hope that makes sense.)
As far as your iMac goes, the 1680 setting would size your previews down to that number of pixels which would fit pixel for pixel into your iMac's monitor. Even if you went smaller with your previews, Aperture would still have them fill the screen in full screen mode, they'd just be blowing them up a bit.
Enjoy it. Its quickly becoming a favorite app of mine.

Hi Brad,
when you use Streamclip to convert media, use the same name for the exported file (only with different extension). Then make a shell script calling
touch -r origFileName.mp2 newFileName.mov
This will copy the exact time and date from origFileName.mp2 to newFileName.mov
The script may look like this (save the file, give an exec permission to it and call it in the right directory):
#!/bin/bash
for i in `ls *.mp2`; do
NEWNAME=$(ls "$i" | sed -e 's/mp2/mov/')
touch -r $i $NEWNAME
done
You may need to adapt the extension names used (in the example above .mp2 is input file to get the date/time stamp from and .mov is the output file to stamp.
Have fun and cheers

My iphoto library database was corrupted with one file taking over all images i purchased aperture, selected no for importing duplicates and yet it is still importing duplicates what can i do??????

my iphoto library database was corrupted with one image taking over every other image on the database
i purchased aperture and am in the process of copying my i photo library , i ticked no to importing duplicate images and yet it is still importing many duplicates including the photo which took over my old iphoto library
help how can i stop it from importing the duplicates?

my iphoto library database was corrupted with one image taking over every other image on the database
What exactly do you mean by that? Do you mean one thumbnail only was visible in the iPhoto Window? What? This is the sort of thing that's fixed easily by an iPhoto rebuild. Gives us some more information and we may be able to help with that - iPhoto version and a description of exactly what's happening will help.
i ticked no to importing duplicate images and yet it is still importing many duplicates including the photo which took over my old iphoto library
A couple of thoughts here: If the iPhoto Library is corrupted and Aperture is importing from this damaged Library well you can't expect that it will all go easily, can you?
The iPhoto Library contains two versions of edited photos. Are you sure that you're not seeing the second version?

Vignetting added and color adjusted immediately post import into lightroom5.
My photos from my most recent trip, when imported into Lightroom, have a heavy vignette very close to all 4 corners of the photo, and seem to have some small adjustments being done to them immediately when I import. The thumbnail looks great, and when i import --> then select it to open it as if I was going to view it full size in Lightroom, it looks great [no vignetting or tone/color adjustment] for about 1-2 seconds while a 'loading' footer is shown, following which the color is slightly altered and the vignetting is added (at this point then the thumbnail changes as well). This is a significant and noticable change to the photo. The pictures also do not have these issues if I view them through any other software. I have Can any one help me figure out what is causing this and remove it?
I shoot
with a Sony Alpha6000
shoot in RAW (.ARW)
use the standard sony kit lens that comes with the camera bundle, lens SELP1650 (3.5-5.6/16mm-50mm)
edit on Windows 7 64bit with Lightroom5
and don't believe I've adjusted any camera settings since last taking pictures 1 week ago with the exact same lens. I looked at photos from my last trip (only one week ago), and none of them are having these or an alterations/changes upon import.
I took over 300 photos last weekend wthout any sign of these issues post import
Every single photo I took this weekend seems to have this same issue.
Any help is appreciated!

How to import camera raw-files as DNG-files using AppleScript action in the Aperture's Import menu - does such a script exist?

I'm looking for a smart way to set up an Aperture 3 workflow - where my propriatary camera raw files get converted into DNG-files when I import my files into Aperture. Aperture's Import menu allows for an Apple-Script to come into action as part of the Import settings. I was thinking if it would be possible for an AppleScript, as part of the import routine, to automatically send the files through the DNG converter app and back into Aperture? So that when the files were finally imported into Aperture they would be DNG-files?
Greatful for any answers and ideas!

Thanks for a swift reply Frank! I will have to use the Adobe DNG converter then, prior to importing into Aperture.
Yes, OSX does support my Nikon D600 NEF-files. But once in a while I want to be able to use features found in other raw apps, within my overall Aperture workflow, but without ending with a TIFF or other 'destructable' file format when continuing my workflow back in Aperture. This should be possible using the routine described here: http://www.apertureexpert.com/tips/2013/8/28/guest-post-catapult-and-aperture-3. html
In my case the problem is that my "old" CS5 version of Photoshop cannot be updated to read D600 files (even though CS5 is not even 3 years old) - I would have to buy a newer version of Photoshop and I have absolutely no intention of doing that. And so I have to find a raw file fomat that is readable by both apps.
On a second note there is a discussion about what raw format is likely to 'live the longest' - also be accessable in 20-30 years. Some say that DNG stand a better chance here than propriatary ones. But I don't know about that and that is not my issue here.

Major import issue

This is the first time I've tried to import photos from my camera since the 10.6.4 update.
I have a M1093 IS Kodak Easyshare digital camera and when I open iPhoto '09 see the photos and video clips are there but there are no prviews so I can't actually see the image and when I try and import I get this message:
*Unreadable files.*
*The following files could not be imported. (The file is an unrecognised format)*
With Aperture 3 again I see no previews of the actual images and this message when trying to import:
*Import from capture card complete with errors.*
*0 items have been imported in the project named "project name"*
With Image Capture, same problem and this message:
*Import error.*
*An error occurred while importing.*
When I plugged my camera into a Windows machine, I had no problems at all.
Any ideas whats going on here?
Cheers

Aperture. Imported libraries, edited images corrupted!

All existing libraries (old and newer) imported into this latest version of Aperture appear corrupted - not all the images, only the ones round-tripped through photoshop and back. The images show up either as a blanket of messed up coloured lines (garbage) or a black screen with "image format not supported" error. All these images were originally imported in aperture and round-tripped back into aperture - Never touched by any other software and saved in .psd format.
Has anyone else run into this? Any thoughts would be much appreciated as I have hundreds of hours of editing tied up in the editing of these images and now they are all messed up! Older versions of aperture had no issues like this!
Please see attached screen grab
Thanks!
~Cliff

A lot more than 10% for me unfortunately! The masters seem fine! I had just archived a bunch from my laptop a little while ago and thought that I could then transfer them to my mini easily - well one of Aperture's famous updates screwed that idea up!
Yeah I too am in the process of trying to re-edit etc. and save some of them. But soo much time already invested. I had one project, among so many, with over 200 pictures heavily edited for a particularly artsy project and not a single one renders properly! And worse, I posted tiny copies of them so people could review and now those that want them want what they saw - So now have to try and duplicate those exact edits! This program is getting far to useless!
Aperture WAS a good idea but it's costing me much than the organizational help it provides!
Sorry for the rant, hope you get your stuff sorted out!! And thanks for the thumbnail suggestion, tried that too!

Lightroom 5 & lightroom iphone app import issues with iOS8

hi guys,
recently i am having problems with importing iphone pics thru the lightroom app. for reasons i dont understand the images comes to lr in small resolution (640x852). if i work on the pic in the app- and save it to the camera roll the images in the app its full resolution. ideas?

You did not mention if it always were the same images that were not being synced in your original post.
Hence the question.
Even though it might seem silly for you - those questions being answered can make us understand where the problem lies.
The problem can be that you have an app that shoots pictures that are causing the issue, etc.
Best way to help us and yourself would be:
letting us know if it always only happens to a specific set of images
if only specific set of images causes this - where did they come from, had they been edited somewhere else or where they untouched when you imported them to Lr mobile
be very specific in your posts, things like "if i work on the pic in the app- and save it to the camera roll the images in the app its full resolution. " Doesn't really help us to understand where you are seeing the full resolution image, leaving us to assumptions that can be wrong.
If your workaround is to edit the images that's good but it still doesn't solve your problem right?
What you can do is - next time you have this issue - go to the settings in Lr mobile (Lr icon inside the app) and once the settings are open, press the Lr icon again for a couple of seconds to get a diagnostics log.
Then send it to me privately, do not post here directly, and we can see if it lets us know whats going on.
Thanks,
Ignacio
