Why Streming Photo automatically don't work in Aperture 3?

AFAIK, Aperture creates a temporary JPG (PNG, whatever) of your image, delivers it to the service (Flickr, ...) and then removes that copy.
If you want to send it again, simply select the same Export command again.
If you want to have a copy of the exported file you will have to export it as a file (using the Export -> Version / Master command). You can then do with this file whatever you want; it's all yours!

How to back-up Aperture3 libraries (on an external drive) to store in a safe place?

What is the best way to back-up aperture3 libraries to an 2nd external drive that provides a 2nd copy that I can use in case something bad happens to my original drive? Should I back-up the entire library package or just the vaults? What is the difference between the those two options.
Thank you!

Depends on whether you use managed-Masters or referenced-Masters.
Most important is to back up original image files before import into Aperture or any other images management application. I like Vaults for backing up the Aperture Library, and I use referenced-Masters to keep the Library a civilized size.
Mass storage is cheap. We need backups both on site (all hard drives fail) and off site (fire, flood, theft).

New Color Profiles not showing up in Aperture3

I've spent hours trying to get Aperture3 to see a new proofing profile with no luck.
We use WHCC (White House Custom Color) for prints and discovered we were using an out of date icc profile for their printer. No big deal, just download the new icc profile and drop it in the ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder and... Nothing.
Here are the location's I've tried putting it with no luck:
~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/
/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/
/System/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ +(yes I know you're not supposed to put anything in here, but it usually works and is a good place to put things you don't want users to tamper with)+
Putting the profile in any of these locations, the ColorSync Utility sees it just fine, but Aperture doesn't list it at all. I've rebooted, restarted, rebuilt my Library and fixed permissions with no change. Is there a specific .plist file I can destroy that will let Aperture re-discover the profiles on the system?
As a side effect of this process, I moved the old proofing profile to my Desktop. After the now one didn't work, I tried moving it back to see if Aperture would see it... It doesn't anymore. Oddly enough, Aperture does see the display profiles we created for the laptop with our Monaco.
Aperture 3.0.3 on Snow Leopard 10.6.3
I'd appreciate knowing if anyone has run into this, or has any advice.

I had the same issue when playing with my Xerox Phaser 6110 profiled with colormunki. All software except Aperture (3.0.3) recognized the profile (Color Sync, Print dialog, Preview soft-proffing, even LR 3b2). I too tried all possible locations and none worked.
Then I opened the profile in ColorSync, and edited (Profiles -> Xerox... -> Open ->'desc' tag) Ascii and unicode descriptions to read aaa.icc and did a Save As aaa.icc and there it was, available in Aperture, too.
To my great disappointment the soft-proof feature in Aperture seems to be broken for some monitor/printer profile combinations, and is compatibly broken for printing from Aperture. What happens is the resulting image is way too degraded, even beyond the (admittedly crappy) photo printing capabilities of this printer.
IOW printing the same JPG via Preview and/or soft-proofing with the printer's profile yields way more consistent results. Totally unacceptable for a €200 piece of software.

Compare quality and features between aperture3 and iPhoto 11 photo books

Are photo books created in either aperture3 or iPhoto 11 the same or does one software program produce a better end result?

I only discovered my problem AFTER I had uploaded my book for printing. i went back and tried to create a PDF to save and discovered my problem. It had looked fine on the screen and I never received any sort of error message during the upload. I contacted Apple and they looked at what had been uploaded and saw that it was corrupted like my PDF so they canceled the order. I then went thru the process of rebooting in safe mode and tried a preview before uploading the second time. I called Apple again and they said the uploaded file appeared to be fine this time -- I have not received the book yet, but I am hoping it looks alright after printing. I experimented last night with making a duplicate of the original book project, then changed the template on the duplicate to Large instead of XL (everything else was the same as far as template style and color), then I ran a preview of that duplicate -- there were no corrupted files in the preview. It appears to me that the problem is not with corrupted photo files in my library but has to do with the size selection -- no XL books. When converting from Large to XL, the photos and their pkacement were exactly as the original but the size and location of all the Text alterations I had made to the original had been changed in the duplicate and would require editing again. This was the only difference in the two. Until Apple resolves this issue with another update, I suggest you either create only Large books and avoid XL -OR- boot in "safe mode" to send the XL book to print. I hope Apple corrects this issue soon because the XL books really are beautiful and it seems ridiculous to have to reboot everytime you want to purchase a book. Hope this helps.

Saving Space on HD Using iPhoto and Aperture3

Hello,
I wonder is there is a way that I could use the same space on the HD for both the iPhoto and Aperture3. I don't want to import my pictures from iPhoto because I feel it will duplicate and I'll lose space on the HD.
I read on the forum: "iPhoto and Aperture" that: "if you set iPhoto to referenced mode you won't even use extra disk space." Mr. Terance Devlin said it.
"Re: iPhoto and Aperture
Posted: Jun 18, 2009 11:06 PM in response to: speedybiker
Solved
No they can't share the same Library. You can easily move your Previews to iPhoto (In iPhoto File -> Show Aperture Library and drag and drop). If you set iPhoto to referenced mode you won't even use extra disk space.
Regards
TD"
HOW EXACTLY DO I DO THAT? SET IPHOTO TO REFERENCE MODE?
THX!

*How to do it:*
Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
*What Happens:*
Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
*Some things to consider:*
1. Importing and deleting pics are more complex procedures. You have to to put the files where they will be stored before importing them. When you delete them you'll need to remove the files from the HD yourself.
2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
4. Because iPhoto has no tools for managing Referenced Files, if, for some reason, the path to the photos changes then you could find yourself resolving aliases for +each photo in the Library+ one by one.
My own opinion:
I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers

I have Aperture3 and iPhoto. When I try send video clips as attachments, I get a message saying Quicktime can't open the .avi - why?

I have Aperture3 and iPhoto. When I try send video clips as attachments, I get a message saying Quicktime can't open the .avi - why? Others couldn't open them so I sent them to myself and get the same message. Doesn't seem to be a size issue as I've tried with really short clips (4 seconds). As I recall, I didn't have this problem before buying Aperture last fall, when I only had iPhoto. It appears that by default, an attachment to an email automatically comes from my iPhoto files and not Aperture - assume that is supposed to happen but not sure. Thanks for any and all help!

When I try send video clips as attachments, I get a message saying Quicktime can't open the .avi - why?
How are you tryin to send the .AVI file? Are you sending the attachment directly from Mail or from Aperture or iPhoto?

Transfer Macbook Pro Aperture3 Pics to Imac Aperture3

Just got back from vacation where I shot a ton of RAW pics and imported to my macbook pro using Aperture 3.
Now I am home, What is the best way to import those files to my Imac Aperture3 Library?
I have a USB to USB cable if that works...

The most common method is to export the Project(s) as a library from the field machine > copy to office machine > Merge or Add copied library on office machine.
The bottom half of page at link below outlines the typical procedures:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=3%26sec tion=3%26tasks=true
Note - pay particular attention to the differences between 'Merging' and 'Adding' the new library since it has different results where duplicate file names are concerned.
Hope this helps.

Aperture3 does not export sharpening

Hi,
I've been using Aperture3 for a few months now but only recenly got into more serious post-processing, especially using quick brushes including sharpening. I have just noticed that my sharpening adjustments are not transferred into exported copies, be it jpeg or tiff. I am working with RAW files from Panasonic FZ-150 converting them to tiff in order to apply noise reduction with Topaz plug-in and after that I apply all other adjustments including quick brushes in Aperture. Then I export from Aperture using JPEG - Original Size with Quality 12 and sRGB profile. The resulting JPEG files are not comressed (appx 9MB in size) but the images definitely lack sharpening. This is not a compression issue; if I turn sharpening off in Aperture the images turn identical to the exported copies. So this is definitely a problem with export.
Here is one example where the difference is especially noticeable because the original image was not very sharp in the first place. Yet selective sharpening seems to give very good results in Aperture; however the export version on the left does not contain any signs of sharpening.
I have found a few old threads about this issue but without any solution. I hope Aperture technical gurus are reading and responding on this forum and will be able to help. Has this been fixed? I really like selective sharpening in Aperture but what's the point if I can't share the results. Hope somebody can provide the solution.

Ok, and here is my third and probably last post. As I suspected after my analysis of 100% crops, exporting with reduced sizes actually helps to achieve very similar JPEG look comparing to the original version in Aperture. Here is an example with the same file from the previous two posts but using export preset "Fit within 1024x900" and Quality 12. The resulting jpeg output looks much closer to the original on the screen; any difference is purely attributable to the compression effect (the output file size is only 500k). So I guess this solves the problem - I will use smaller export size to make sure it looks close enough to the original for web sharing. Hope this thread will help other users in the future. If you have any other tips with regard to this "issue", please share.

Aperture3 won't open raw files from my new nikon D5100

Aperture3 won't open raw files from my new nikon D5100. It worked fine with my D40, but when I got the D5100 it wouldn't open the raw files from it. Is there an update for it?

Can I download raw images from my Panasonic Lumix DMC - FZ45 to my iMac using Aperture3 ?

I want to start using Aperture3 as long as I can handle Raw images from my Panasonic DMC-FZ45 with it but that camera is not on the list - will it work?

If the camera is not on the list then Aperture will not be able to handle the RAW images from the camera.
It's surprising as this is a relatively old camera, so if it's not in Aperture by now I would tend to think it won't be included. You could download the trial version and see what happens just to make sure.
One other thing, you could convert the RAW images to DNG using the Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter for Macintosh and then import those.

Welcome to the discussions!
So having tried the steps on the Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics page I would now suggest you try some system maintenance. Open Disk Utility and repair permissions on your system drive and verify your data drive. ( If you do not run a separate data drive, start your system from the install DVD and run Disk utility from there.)

Brushes grayed out on Aperture3

I purchased & downloaded Aperture3 from the Apple store and all the brushes are grayed out and I can't access them. How do I correct this problem?

When you say "brushes" do you mean the adjustment tiles in the Adjustments tab, or the Quick Brushes in the Adjustments popup menu?
Do you have RAW or JPEG files in your library with this problem?
Did you upgrade from an older version of Aperture? Is there an option at the top of the Adjustments tab to reprocess the image?

Problems with importing files from iPhoto to Aperture3?

I have just received my new iMac with Aperture3 pre-installed.
When I try to import the iPhoto Library (File - Import - iPhoto Library..) or try to import a single picture, the picture shows pixilated in Aperture3. When I try to import the iPhoto Library - Aperture shows one pixilated picture from the folder and then it works forever trying to get thumbnails for the rest.
Nothing happens.
What can I do?
The format for the pictures are jpg.

But this iPhoto Library came from somewhere else? Right? From another machine? So, how did those photos get into that iPhoto Library? Did you import one Library to another? I ask as this is one of the ways you could find yourself working with thumbnails and not the actual images.

How to re-install Aperture3?

I have a registered copy of Aperture 3. My harddrive died and I replaced it. My old operating system was OS X v 10.5.8 but the new drives operating system is OS X 10.6.8 and is 1 TB. Now I'm trying to put some of the software I lost on my new harddrive. However, when I enter the serial # for the Aperture3 I get a prompt saying my serial # is not valid. What do I need to do to re-install Aperture3 on my new harddrive?

Did you try the bit at the bottom concerning the System ID files:
might be worth a shot especially as you've reinstalled
One other thing if you can;t find the files in question in the /Library/Application Support/ folder look in the libray folder in you home directory.

Is it possible to use Aperture3 to edit a standard photo into a Na'vi?

I am considering buying Aperture3, but I want to know if it is possible to turn a standard photo into something resembling a Na'vi from the movie Avatar? That is do color swaps, alter the ears and eyes etc.
Thanks in advance.

What you need to do that is Photoshop, The Gimp or a software like that.
Aperture has a lot of editing capabilities, but it's intended for photographers, not graphic artists.
However, in Aperture, you can choose to use an external editor for this kind of advanced editing and still keep the original and altered images in a unique, convenient, place.
