Aperture will not write over PSE metadata

I switched over to Aperture3 when I got my Mac a few months ago.  Previously I was using Photoshop elements on my Dell.  When I use the "Write IPTC Metadata to Master" function, it works well for any new photos that did not previously have keywords saved to the file.  However, it does not seem to be capable of deleting or updating the keyword metadata for files that already contained keywords from PSE.  Even more frustrating, the keywords in my aperature library revert back to the PSE keywords every time the system decides to reprocess the photos.  Anyone else having similar problems? Is there a way I can fix this?  Thanks!  I appreciate any advice you can give.

I still haven't figured out how to update the IPTC data to the original Master file that contains the PSE keywords.  However, I did find one way around it.  If I change the keywords in Aperture and then export the photos as versions, the Aperture keywords remain and the PSE keywords are gone.  That is what I wanted.  However, before I do this, I wanted to know if anyone knew if exporting the photos as versions compromises the photo at all.  In other words, how does the new exported photo compare to the original Master as far as photo quality is concerned?
Thanks!

  • IPhoto 9.2 photo descriptions will not write - after a few letters words self erase!

    iPhoto 9.2 photo descriptions will not write - after a few letters words self erase! Program update downloaded earlier today, 24.10.11. Fine on my laptop, but my desktop is having problems.

    Rebuild the main library.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Aperture will not open-  HELP!!!

    Can anyone help me?  Aperture will not open and I'm worried that I will loose over 35000 photos.  When I try to open Aperture this is the message I get:
    There was an error opening the database for the library “/Users/philcammarata/Pictures/Aperture Library.aplibrary”.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or am I just screwed?
    Looking forward to hearing from someone.
    Phil

    OK good, version 2 on Mountain Lion would be dicey.
    Do you have backups of the library? If you don;t now would be a good time to make one.
    The first step is to run the Aperture library first aid procedures. Hold down the option (alt) and command keys while starting Aperture. This will open the first aid window. Now select and run Library Repair.
    Once it is done post back the results.
    Good luck

  • After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.  10.6.7 now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.

    After loading the latest Aperture 3 update, aperture will not load and it appears to have corrupted 10.6.7. and now appears to be missing from the computer and my administrator status has changed to standard.  Update Software says I need to do update to 10.6.7 which I can't do because administrator privileges are gone.   I didn't back-up with Time Machine ,BAD, but I have all files backed-up on another hard drive.  Should I just reformat and start over?  Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

    PROBLEM SOLVED! For me at least!
    Apple Support gave me the clue - I had run Migration Assistant, and it had obligingly replaced a system file (/Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager) with the equivalent from my old system.
    I reinstalled 10.6.7 using the DVD supplied and all is well.
    The moral is - don't use Migration Assistant.
    Along the way Apple Support provided me with a link to download Combo update 10.6.7: this could not be installed on my iMac.
    Hope this helps.

  • Aperture will not start anymore

    I bought and installed Aperture 3 over the App Store.
    Initial install and running the program was no problem.
    Upon launch now, the application will not start, reporting that "Aperture cannot be opened due to a problem". 
    The message also says I may need to re-install the software. Well how?
    I think this started to happen after I got my iPad2 and selected to sync photos from Aperture, but I am not sure about that.
    Even a reboot and with no other started applications, Aperture will not open.
    I am running a Mac Mini Server (I bought it new in december 2010 in the Apple Store), running OS X server 10.6.7
    Regards, Henrik

    Problem I'm Getting is:
    Dyld Error Message:
      Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager
      Referenced from: /Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/MacOS/Aperture
      Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:

    No expert but from what I can tell theres some sort of bug or something in the PluginManager File as all the files appear to be there. Possible?

  • Meta Data Will Not Write! I've tried everything...

    So, I love LR very much, except for the fact it WILL NOT write metadata. I've done numerous tests with Picasa, IrfanView, and other applications and while other applications successfully write to the IPTC header of the jpg or sidecar, I cannot get LR to write any of the metadata for the life of me. I've turned on and off the "Write XMP" checkbox in the options.
    I've waited a substantial amount of time, then checked the file in a reader app and never see any kind of change to the file.
    Why won't Lightroom write the metadata through to the file? It reads it in fine, but I cannot get it to update the file.
    Thanks for your thoughts.

    There's another issue here. Depending on what you're looking at it with, the programs cache. I was going crazy thinking they were not being written by looking with exifer and several other programs. Someone said try Bridge, which I'd never used, and voila, they were there. Bridge ALSO caches, but there is an option to empty the cache for this folder and you have to do that every time you want to check if Lightroom has written something. If you're on Windows, Microsoft Photo Info does display some metadata fields and does not have the caching problem.
    In my case, I'm checking dates I'm writing in exifer for Lightroom, since Lightroom can't write capture and digitize dates.

  • Address Book Contact Photos will not sync over to iPhone 2G

    So here is the deal. I just bought a new 21.5" iMac w/ Snow Leopard. I had a iMac G5 with Leopard previously and rather than using migration assistant, i just copied over the applicable folders and files (per my research) so that my contacts would be present on the new computer. Everything seems fine except the contact photos will not sync over to my iPhone. Has anyone run across this? Help is greatly appreciated!
    Cheers

    any body?

  • If i already have a data carrier setting in my iphone 4, and i want a upgrade for the setting via itunes, will it write over my existing settings?

    If i already have a data carrier setting in my iphone 4, and i want a upgrade for the setting via itunes, will it write over my existing settings?

    You can set up more than one device on your computer, and iTunes will remember the settings for each of them:
    How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
    But you'll have to use your Apple ID to sync bought media to her device. Disable all other things you don't want to sync like photos, contacts, etc.

    Bypass the Unwelcome Screen by creating Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor. The Editor's executable is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe" The Organizer's executable is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe" The Unwelcome Screen leaves a zombie process running which prevents the actual program from launching again.

  • Code will not write to text

    Hello to all:
    Can someone give advice to why the code below will not write to the text that I save. In other words, when I write a text file then save it then open the text file again, all of the words that I have written are not seen.
         private File workingFile = null;
      private JTextArea jta;
    private void saveFile()
                   if (workingFile != null)
                        try
             FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(workingFile);
                             fos.write(jta.getText().getBytes());
                             fos.close();
                                            //write the file out through FileWriter
                   PrintWriter outFile = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(workingFile));
                   outFile.print(area.getText());
                   outFile.close();//close the text file
                        catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace();
                   else
           JFileChooser jfc = new JFileChooser();
                   jfc.setDialogTitle("Save Document");
                   int option = jfc.showSaveDialog(null);
                   if (option == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                   try
              FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(jfc.getSelectedFile());
                             workingFile = jfc.getSelectedFile();
                             fos.write(jta.getText().getBytes());
                             fos.close();
                        catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace();
              }

    ok, I found the line that is causing the exception. Line333 which is in
    the second if statement , the following:fos.write(jta.getText().getBytes());
    Now how would I fix that besides deleting itCan you post the first few lines of that stacktrace? Either jta or fos
    (or both) are null; the stacktrace shows you which one caused the
    NullPointerException.
    Of course you can add a few debug prints just before that line:System.out.println("jta: "+jta);
    System.out.println("fos: "+fos);kind regards,
    Jos

  • HT1338 Aperture will not open after update? What do I do?

    Aperture will not open after I updated. What do I do?

    Mgoss, quit the installer or App Store/Software Update (depending on what you're using to update) and restart your machine. With Aperture closed, drag the Aperture application to the trash, then reinstall Aperture from your original media and, if necessary, update again.

  • My Mac OS X 10.4.11 will not write DVDs and gets error code 0x80020022, what is wrong?

    My Mac OS X 10.4.11 will not write DVDs and gets error code 0x80020022, what is wrong?

    That code is not really useful since it just means it can't write DVD's (or probably CD's).  The only thing you can do is first to try a different brand of DVD's, higher quality.  You could also try burning at a slower speed.
    Based on the fact that you are using an OSX that's no long supported, there's probably not much you can do to correct this issue if it is software related.  You may also have a failing Super Drive, another consequence of an older Mac.

  • OPC will not write to AB L32E - Will Read

    OPC will not write to AB L32E - Will Read.
    I have been able to set up a OPC Server using the NI OPC Server, using the ControlLogix Ethernet driver for the AB 1769-L32E PLC.
    All of the tags can be seen. The Lookout 6.7.1 will see real time data, but anything I write too, never shows up in the PLC.
    Using the OPCclient in Lookout. Their is No alarm's, other than a value has been adjusted by direct user input..
    Their is no comm errors.
    I just purchased this software last month.
    The NI OPC Server, Events, no errors.
    Thanks.
    Dave
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for your posts because I knew this should be possible.  Here is what I found.  Check step 4 of your channel in case your value updating is wrong or Step 11 of  device is set to do not create on startup.
    Thanks to the folks at Kepware. I was able to get this working for CompactLogix L32E.
    Step 1: In NI OPC Server Create a new Channel. Channel Name can be whatever you want.
    Step 2: Device driver will be ControlLogix Ethernet.  You can also enable diagnostics if you want.
    Step 3: Network adapter. I used default setting.
    Step 4: Write only latest values.  Duty at 10. ( These are default settings and are recommended.)
    Step 5: Finish new Channel setup
    Step 6: Click on Icon to create new device
    Step 7: Device Name can be whatever you chose.
    Step 8: Select Device Model in this case CompactLogix 5300
    Step 9: Device ID For me was IP Address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,1,0    (Note the 1 directs path to backplane. The 0 to the slot where processor is)
    Step 9: Device timing.  Leave at defaults.
    Step 10: Auto demotion leave unchecked.
    Step 11: Leave at defaults Do not generate on startup Delete on create and allow subgroups
    Step 12: Port and watchdogs at default settings
    Step 13: Project options leave at default. (In my case I changed to short as that is what most of my tags were)
    Step 14: Create tagname from device.
    Step 14: Finish Device setup.
    You now have two options. 
    Option 1: Start creating tags as you need them. (This is what I did)
    Option 2: Right Click newly created device and select properities.  Then select database creation and click auto create.
    Go To Lookout  and create new driver. 
    Select OPC Client
    Server name will be from dropdown menu. National Instruments:NIOPCServers
    Click okay
    You should be done and smiling. 

  • Maxl Script will not write to error file for data laod.

    Sorry Glenn here is the new thread. I re ran without the semi colon after data 3 and the same error came up without anything being written to the error file.
    I purposely removed a member from the orginal outline that is included in the data loaded but yet the error file is not written to. I tried doing the load manually but executing it in the background, error file is to be created on my local HD but it does not write it there. Checked the output and it is written to a directory located on the server. Although i think this is normal.
    Could it be that it will not write to a local drive? I am going to try specifying a spot on the server to see if it runs there.
    thanks
    Original post below.
    Hello,
    I am also having this issue.
    I will include my script below but will state some details before
    We are on Essbase 11.1.1.3
    I am running Admin Console from my client PC that connects to the server in the script and I read that in this set up the error file will not get written to. This documentation was for v 9.1.3
    Here is my script (i changed some of the names)
    login 'user' 'password' on server';
    create application 'Money1' as 'Money2';
    spool stderr on to 'errorfile';
    import database 'Money1'.'Main' data
    from local text data_file 'Money1_Data.txt'
    using server rules_file 'Data3'
    on error append to 'dataload.err';
    execute calculation 'CALC ALL;' on 'Money1'.'Main';
    logout;
    spool off;
    exit;
    here is the error output i get:
    code line: on error append to 'dataload.err';
    Statement executed with warnings.
    (3) Syntax error near ['$']
    I don't see a dollar sign anywhere in my code and the error file does not get produced.
    Also do error files get written too if the actins are executed in the background?
    Thanks!
    Alex

    This works for me in a MaxL script run through essmsh.exe:
    import database appname.dbname data from local text data_file "d:\\datafilename.txt" using server rules_file "rulename"
         on error write to "d:\\errorfilename.err" ;Sometimes EAS (I think you are running it through that) does weird things to MaxL. I eschew MaxL in EAS as much as possible (like 100% of the time).
    NB -- the datafilename and errorfilename and their drive letters are local to wherever you're running this process through the MaxL shell. I don't know how that works when you're running EAS -- are drives local to your session, local to the EAS server? Dunno. Leave EAS behind, buy TextPad (no I am not the author of that fine product) and download the MaxL syntax library, and be happy. :)

    Put the MaxL into a code block to get it to display correctly.
