Aperture Split View Problem

The vertical photos in the split view bar at the bottom have all switched from being displayed normally to being rotated and showing squashed and distorted.
I have tried to close and re-open Aperture, and I have also restarted the computer. The pictures are distorted whther they are in the Grid view or Filmstrip. I also tried to "Update Preview", but it tells me that it is up to date.The horizontal/landscape pictures are showing fine, the problem is only with the vertical/portrait pictures in the Split view.

Select all the ones in one Project and run "Photos→Generate Preview". Does that work?
"Update Preview" changes to "Generate Preview" when "{Alt}" is pressed.

Horizontal scroll not working in aperture split view

I had recently upgraded to mountain lion and the newest aperture, but I noticed a problem with horizontal scrolling in aperture split view. I am currently using a magic mouse, and it scrolls just fine within other applications except in aperture split view. (it doesn't go to the next picture when I gesture left and right) if I do it many times, it will change to the next picture but then stops scrolling again. I had tried to use a trackpad and it is better but I have to do it slowly and occationally it just doesn't work. It only happens only in Aperture and not in safari or other applications. Does anyone know the solution to this problem? Any little help is greatly apprecitated

The recent Aperture update disabled the "Scroll to navigate photos in the Viewer" option.
You may need to reenable it in the Aperture general preferences.

Aperture Split View Misbehaving

The vertical photos in the split view bar have all switched from being displayed vertically/normally to being rotated and showing "squashed". They only do it with photos imported from my Sony DSV-HX5V, not iPhone or other cameras. Any ideas?

A few simple things first:
- Does the problem persist after closing and re-opening Aperture?
- Are they distorted in Grid view?
- In Split view, does changing from Filmstrip to Grid (still in Split view) correct the distortion? Does changing the size of the Previews in the Split view grid (use the slider) correct them?
- What happens when you select one Preview, and select "Update Preview" from the context-sensitive menu?

Aperture - Browser, Split View, and Viewer

Photos in my browser will not wrap around into rows. I have just one row which goes right off my screen. I also have this problem in the split view with the thumbnails. And in viewer I have no photo at all. Can anyone suggest a way to fix this problem???

You should have a row of icons along the top of the Aperture window. In the top right are icons which will directly let you switch to "Browser", "Split View" or "Viewer" mode. If you do not see any icons, click the grey oval in the extreme upper-right corner of the Aperture window (it toggles the icon toolbar on & off).
Click the "Split View" icon to switch to that mode.
You should have an image taking up most of the window, and a row of other images along the bottom. If this is just one row which you can only pan left & right then you are in "filmstrip" mode.
Just above the strip of thumbnails at the bottom is a pull-down field that lets you select the sort order, and three icons just to the right. They select whether you want to be in "Filmstrip" mode (which is what it sounds like you are in right now), "Grid" mode (which is what it sounds like you want), and "List" mode. Click the middle icon to switch it to "Grid" mode.
If you aren't seeing enough of your images, you can re-apportion the window. There's a thin gray line dividing the larger picture above from the thumbnails below. Float your mouse directly over that thin gray line and your mouse pointer should switch to a line with an arrow pointing up & down. Press and hold your left mouse button while sliding the mouse up or down to change the proportion of the two sections of the window.

Aperture stopped showing pictures in viewer and split view

Suddenly Aperture 3 has stopped showing any pictures in viewer and split view (except for the bottom fim strip) but I can see them all in browser view. I have tried using Aperture Repair and have reset Aperture (using Clean My Mac to delete the user setup files). I also tried creating a new library with just a few files to see if the size of the library was an issue. I also tried opening the libraries in iPhoto and have the same result. I can browse the minatures but not open the larger pictures.
The only thing I have yet to try is to delete and reinstall Aperture. But since iPhoto has the same problem, I don't see how that would be the issue.
Aperture is version 3.5.1, OS is OSX 10.9.2.

I would have to redo the cleanmymac step but essentially it is like creating a new install before using the app.
If you do not know, what exactly will be uninstalled, by a general cleaning application, don't use it. That is risky.
Using a different user account makes no difference.
That means, you are having a system wide problem. Fixing your Aperture library or settings in your account will probably not help.
First thing to try, reinstall Aperture.
And if that does not bring your split view back, reinstall Mavericks. You may have missing caches and necessary configuration files, since iPhoto is having the same problem.
Did you run CleanMyMac to uninstall other applications, before the problem first occured? Usually it is much safer, to use only the uninstaller, that come with an application. Otherwise, you are risking to uninstall items needed by other applications or the system.
To reinstall MacOS X 10.9.2, boot into OS X Recovery, see this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

Aperture viewer issues after full screen view - in Browser, Split View and Viewer modes

2012 MacBook Air, Mac OS 10.8.2, Aperture 3.4.3. Everything is up to date and, as usual, has been working just fine since the last update a few weeks ago. Full screen view never caused any issues... until today.
I tried quitting and restarting Aperture. Using another Aperture library. Quitting everything and restarting my MBA... same behavior.
I went into the full screen view, edited a photo and got out of the full screen view to export it.
All of the sudden, only one line of thumbnails was showing up in my Broswer view (out of 380 pictures in that project). Looking closely at it, it seems like the Aperture now thinks that the desktop area it has to work with (the dark gray area where the thumbnails are) is larger than the aperture window because a part of photo is showing up cut off at the right edge and no slider at the bottom:
(note: at the bottom it says 380 items displayed)
Going back to full screen view, everything looks and works as nothing has happened:
In Broswer view, if I scroll down such that the first row is out of the view, the second row of thumbnails shows up:
Now, if I scroll back up, two rows of thumbnails are shown in the viewer:
To get the third row to show up, I need to scroll down to get the top two rows out of the way and so on.
At some point I saw this weirdo but have not been able to replicate it:
Split View also has its issues - the photo itself is no longer centered and the slider at the bottom gets out of the way past the right edge of the Aperture window before reaching the end of the row of thumbnails:
Finally, when double clicking the photo in the Split View to view it by itself, once again it is not centered and cut off on the right side but there is no slider...
Any ideas? I tried looking through the Viewer-related threads on here and did not see anything close to this. Is there a way to contact Apple support? I found some form somewhere on the website, but it had a dropdown for operating system and nothing past 10.7.2 so I am guessing it is not being maintained...
edit: added the note under the first image

When the graphical user interface is misbehaving, it frequently helps to remove the Aperture preferences apple.com.Aperture.plist from your user library, see the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics on how to do this.

Previews not displaying in split view in Aperture

Recently Aperture has stopped displaying previews for a number of photos (but strangely not all) when in split view. If I switch to browser view the previews are all there, and if I then return to split view they are back to being displayed. But if I move to another project and then return to the first they are gone again. I have repaired the Aperture database with no change, but not yet rebuilt it. This change in behaviour was not concurrent with an Aperture update. However there have been lots of updates affecting 10.8.2 since the most recent version of Aperture. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

Aperture 2 black viewer problem

Are there still other users out there having the black viewer problem??
I'll first describe my problem as follows:
On one image when making the basic exposure, brightness and saturation adjustments there were no problems with the viewer. Also when adjusting with highlights and shadows again no problem. But as soon as I started making adjustments in Levels using luminance the viewer went completely black. If I unchecked the box in Levels the picture would come back, but as soon as it was checked again the dreaded black viewer. The adjustments were done in the browser/viewer mode. Too my surprise when I switched to full screen mode the full viewed image with the the adjustments was perfectly fine. But when going back to the browser/viewer the viewer was black again. One more curious note is that after leaving this image for about a half an hour and coming back to it there was no black viewer to be found. Usually I would quit Aperture to get rid of the black viewer, but in this case I did not have to.
By the way I have an ATI Radeon X800 XT graphics card in my dual 2.0 Power Mac G5 and 4.5 Gigs Ram

I very rarely have this problem on my old Powerbook 1.33 GHz 17". Since 2.1 I haven't encountered it. However, the simplest way to overcome it is to go into Full Screen (press F), do 1 simple adjustment (such as increase brightness by .1), go back to Window View (press F again), undo the adjustment (decrease brightness by .1) - et voilà. Takes around 20 secs on my Mac.
For me, it's annoying but no deal-breaker.
Cheers,

HT202020 Using a SDHC card adapter I can import directly on my iPad2 videos (.mov) taken with a Panasonic DMC-ZS3. The same video files (same file format) imported in Aperture 3.3 cannot be synchronized with iPad. Is Aperture causing the problem?

Oh, baby! This bad boy flies!! Here's what to expect:
I had 40,000 images in Aperture 3 and it was dog slow at everything. I installed 3.1 update today. It took 5 minutes to update the database and then behaved marginally better than before at ASIC library navigation. I was disappointed.
Then I QUIT the app. It took a couple of hours to "update files for sharing" with a counter that went to 110,000 images. So it must have updated every thumbnail and variation of preview. Turned it back on , and BAM. Came up fully in seconds. Paused for 10 seconds ten everything was lickrty split. For the first time ever, I can use the Projects view with all 791 projects and scroll quickly. I even put it in photos modevand whipped thru all 49,000 images!
Haven't done anybprocessing yet, but i'm liking it!!

Can you set DW to always show split view?

This is not a major problem but an annoying thing and I can't seem to find. I almost always work in split view - never design view. Yet DW seems to default to design view. Even if I have previously edited a page in split or even code view, the next time I open that file (if I have closed and opened DW in the meantime) it opens in design view.
I tried making a custom workspace that included viewing files in split view but sure enough whenever I re-open DW any files I open are once again displayed in Design View.
Anyone know how to change this?
Thanks!
Ellie

>>I tried making a custom workspace that included viewing files in split view but sure enough whenever I re-open DW any files I open are once again displayed in Design View.
Yes, the same problem started in CS4-Mac for me.
Just for kicks, I opened my custom workspace a moment ago. I then opened a document to split view, then resaved that setup as a new custom workspace.
Upon reopening Dreamweaver the next time, it remembered my split view setting. However, the time after that, I was back in Design view.
This seems to be pretty buggy.
Hopefully someone will post a solution.

HT3805 In my split view, the viewed picture is all the way to the right- only a sliver is visible. How do I get it to be centered and viewed in total?

How can I get the picture in my split view to move back to the center where I can see it all?

Lynn,
there should be. Are you perhaps looking in the system library?
The User Library should appear in the Finder's "Go" drop down menu, like this:
If your system is Lion or Mt. Lion, you will have to hold down the option-key ⌥ to make it appear in the menu.
Then look in the folder Preferences for "com.aperture.plist" and remove it.
Don't forget to quit Aperture before you do this.

How to view rating stars on pictures in browser or split view

On an Imac aperture v3.2 I cannot see the rating stars on the pictures in browser or split view. I can only see them if i open the metadata for each individual picture. Does anyone know how to turn this feature on? My husband has a Macbook pro using the same software and he can see them.

The ratings are part of the Metadata Overlays (link goes to User Manual page with full instructions). There are seven different Metadata Overlays. It is helpful to customize each of them. The customization is done via "View→Metadata Display→Customize".
The Browser Metadata Overlay is toggle on/off with "u". "{Shift}+u" will toggle the Browser Metadata Overlay between "Basic View" and "Expanded View".
What is most likely is simply that either your Browser Metadata display has been toggled off. Try each of the toggles above, and see if that doesn't bring back the ratings. If it doesn't, you'll have to add them back to the Metadata View using the customize command above.

Dreamweaver closing when split view selected

I'm seeking assistance with the following issue:
I been using Dreamweaver MX 2004 for 2 years and now whenever
I click on split view to view a file the application closes
automatically without any warning. This is a recent occurance. The
only modifications to my machine have been in the form of Microsoft
XP updates but I don't believe that any of the recent updates I
have installed should affect using the "split" feature in
Dreamweaver. I've tried unstalling, rebooting then reinstalling
Dreamweaver with no luck. Has anyone else experienced this problem
or have any information as to how to fix it?
Best,
Tyler

DW9 (CS3) split view not work with ASP files?

I just installed and ran DW CS3 (ver 9.0 bulid 3481) -- I use
"coder" view for the screen layout. I like the split-view style
since I code inline HTML with my ASP and ASPX code. However, the
new version has the split-screen view button grayed out. How do I
enable split view when I edit files that are not just ending in
"htm" or "html" extensions? If the Adobe programmers made an
ASSumption then they need to issue a patch and remove it pronto. I
do not want someone else making decisions on how I do my work...I
get enough of that from Microsoft already, I do not need it from my
tools also. Please forward this to the developers if there is no
way to change my preferences, otherwise please tell me how to edit
a config file or hex-edit the executable to get this funtionality
back. TIA!

I still can't figure out why the split view or design view is
grayed out and not accessible when editing files with an .asp or
.aspx extension and it is driving me crazy! I called the support
line and got someone in India who didn't understand my problem. 30
minutes later I finally got her to agree to transfer me to
secondary support but they were busy and she promised me they would
call the next day. That was over a week ago. I didn't even get a
voicemail, even though I stayed by my phone the whole day. I see
that support for DW under Adobe is no better than it was under
Macromedia...how sad. Microsoft Expression Web is looking better
and better every day....... :(

Dreamweaver 5.5 and split view

Split view doesn't work in Dreamweaver 5.5, was working but now it's not. Did I hit something to make it stop working, or do I need to reinstall. On a Mac 10.6.7.

CS5 and CS5.5?
Yes, no problem at all.
