Backing Up Images - USING VAULT - Does Aperture Use Additional HD Space

I am using Aperture 1.5. My library contains about 500gb of Photos. It is saved to external hard drive 1. I would like to back up the data using Vault to external hard drive 2 (space available is 850GB). However, I receive a message stating there is NOT enough room to perform the back up.
Has anyone experienced this problem? Does anyone have a suggestion? I do not want to just drag and drop the library as its complicated to keep version controls.

Keith - I am having the same problem with Aperture 2.01 & Leopard. It appears that I must have more free space on my vault drive than the entire size of my aperture library file. Which, of course, seems silly since I have added 4gb to my 100gb aperture library since my last vault sync and my vault drive has 103gb of free space. In other words, my next vault sync should ideally only need 4+ gb to update the vault. I hope apple or someone can tell us what we are doing wrong or I hope they can fix that issue.

Does Aperture recognize additions to iPhoto LIbrary?

I've imported my iPhoto library, letting Aperture reference back to the images in the iPhoto library.
My question is... how do I update the aperture library when new additions have been made to the iPhoto library? It doesn't seem to happen automatically and reimporting the iPhoto library doesn't seem to be the answer (but perhaps I'm wrong). Any suggestions?

Do you have any photos that don't fit the criteria for the tv (should be JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF or PNG - some TIFFs won't work) or perhaps you have an illegal character (such as '/') in the filename or keywords. You could try making some new albums and slowly adding files to isolate culprits if you think this might be the case.

Backing up photos using iCloud

Hello,
I have about 700 photos and 60 videos on my iphone that I want to have backed up somewhere, besides my computer, which is currently on its death bed. I will be getting a new computer in a few weeks after the data has been recovered from my old but in the meanwhile, would like the photos saved somewhere else.
I paid the extra $20 for 15 Gb of storage in iCloud only to find out it only backs up new photos AFTER it has been turned on on the phone.
Does anyone know a way to back up the old photos using icloud? or another application?
Thanks,
Annemarie

If you back up your iPad to iCloud, the backup will include photos stored in the camera roll. The photos will not be accessibile to download or view; they will only be available to restore to your device as part of restoring the entire backup. You would not be able to access the photos contained in the backup on your MacBook when you get home. The backup counts against your iCloud storage space.
Alternatively, if you upload the photos using Photo Stream, you can upload up to 1000 photos for up to 30 days. Photo Stream photos can be accessed via iOS devices and computers signed into the same iCloud account that also have Photo Stream enabled. If your MacBook meets is running OS X 10.7.2 10.7.4 or higher, you will be able download the photos from Photo Stream. This article explains how to set this up on your Mac and other devices: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html. Photo Stream photos do not count against your iCloud space. Another thing to be aware of is that photos uploaded to Photo Stream are streamed back to your device to a Photo Stream album, so you will end up using additional storage space on your iPad when you do this. Here's a FAQ on Photo Stream that you may find helpful: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486.
Edit: Your MacBook must be running OS X 10.7.4 or higher to sync it with iCloud and enable Photo Stream.

Aperture Vault Does Not Read Drive Space Correctly

Aperture 3 Vault does not read the disk space correctly on my newly formatted LaCie 500GB drive, and produces an error message that says there is not enough space to update the vault.
Finder and Disk Utility both indicate that the drive is completely empty. Any help in resolving this problem will be appreciated.

Just some thoughts
1. Check ownership on the drive, everyone can read and write. (& it is MacOS formatted)
2. Check the permissions in your library, it is possible that there is a file with a permissions conflict (only attributable to the fact that computers are programmed by human)

How do I access my encrypted User Account files from my Back Up hard drive? Time Machine was used to create the back up disk; File Vault was used to encrypt the files.

Thanks. I will try going through TM. Since my Simpletech is on the way out, I'll be plugging in a new external hard drive (other than the back-up drive) and trying to restore the library to the new drive. Any advice or warning if this is NOT the right thing to do?
Meanwhile, that is a great tip to do an alternate back-up using a different means. It's been tough to figure out how to "preserve access" to digital images and files for posterity, knowing the hardware will always fail/obsolesce sooner or later, and that "clouds" are only as good as their consistent and reliable accessibility. Upping the odds with redundancy will help dull the edge of my "access anxiety", though logically, it can never relieve it. Will look into
Carbon Copy Cloner.

Does Aperture support the use of Filters or Brushes?

I want to be able to have more control over the final print versions of my photos using Aperture (instead of having to spend hundreds on the latest Photoshop)... Does Aperture support any type of filtering or brushwork? Any freeware out there that dovetails with Aperture?

No, but...
I poked around inside Aperture a while ago and there are some icons and other images that suggest it is coming one day. My guess is that there is insufficient hardware or OS support for it right now and so it ha not been enabled.
And if you look in the .plist file you'll see preferences for "brushes" labeled Dodge, Burn, Saturate, Desaturate, Warmer and Cooler. Brushes also appear to have Size, Softness and Strength attributes - does this indicate future drawing pad support??!!

Does screen saver degrade jpeg images used

The screen saver app on my iMac uses the images stored in an Aperture library. The images are typically jpeg. Does their display in the screen saver effectively open the image then close the image thus degrading the jpeg file every time this is done?

No. In addition, just opening a computer file almost never degrades it.

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button but can't. Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?

It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?

After importing images from my card using LR 5.4, the GPS data does not show in the metadata panel. However, when I look at the imported images using Bridge, the GPS data is visible. Anybody know why LR is not seeing the GPS data? Camera is Canon 6D.

Ok, the issue seem to be solved. The problem was this:
The many hundred files (raw and xmp per image) have been downloaded by ftp in no specific order. Means - a couple of files in the download queue - both raw and xmps. Most of the time, the small xmp files have been finished loading first and hence the "last change date" of these xmp files was OLDER than the "last change date" of the raw file - Lightroom then seem to ignore the existence of the xmp file and does not read it during import.(a minute is enough to run into the problem)
By simply using the ftp client in a way that all large raw files get downloaded first followed by the xmp files, we achieved that all "last changed dates" of the xmp files are NEWER than the related raw files. (at least not older)
And then LR is reading them and all metadata information has been set / read correctly.
So this is solved.

Does Aperture use Adobe Camera Raw in any way?

Does Aperture use Adobe Camera Raw in any way? Is it important than I upgrade ACR if I do not use Photoshop?

Thanks for the relies, guys!
I suspected that there was no connection between Aperture and ACR, but wanted confimation of that fact. You've answered my question.
Thanks again,

Good day!
A simple Paste does not work for you?
It should place the clipboard content as a new Layer which you can then move around.
If there is any chance that the elements need to be scaled, rotated etc. I would prefer to place them as Smart Objects (File > Place …) and do the masking that is specific to the images themselves in those.

Does illustrator list the images used in a particular file. I want to know the file names of the images used.

Does illustrator CS5 list the images used in a particular document.
By this I mean does it tell you the name of the actual images.

But if the file has been embedded, the file name is lost.

FAQ: When I apply edits to an image using Revel, does it save a new file or just the edits?

Q. When I apply edits to an image using Revel, does it save a new file or just the edits?
A. Revel cloud keeps a copy of your full resolution originals. Edits in revel are non-destructive, so your original is always preserved (unedited). When you export photo (MAC) Save to Camera Roll (iOS), that's when Revel applies your edits. On iOS the preview is used. on MAC the full resolution of the original is used to generate the new edited photo.

Thanks kumars ,
I have a specific drag and drop area on our website. This works fine for all earlier releases of Firefox after these security settings
"(1) Enter "about:config" in the URL field; (2) Right click and select New->Boolean; (3) Enter "signed.applets.codebase_principal_support" (without the quotes) as a new preference name; (4) Click OK and try loading the file again."
Bust these settings not work for me in Firefox 17.
Yes the drag and drop functionality is java script based and i am not using any script blocker addons.

Why does a pop up screen ask me to extract the image using Lightroom Installer, when all I want to do is view it ?

My local computer shop solved the problem. Apparently when you download cloud it changes a lot of settings.
So second issue.
Why do I now get asked to burn to disc rather than saving to my hard drive when I want to export from Lightroom ?
