Can Aperture do this (what iPhoto can't)?

When I connect my camera, iPhoto shows me all photos and all videos on the sd-card. Then I must select the pics, because I want to import videos with another program. How can I avoid this process? Can I make Aperture show me only photos, and no videos, before importing? So that I can hit "import all"!
Can Aperture do this? Then I would buy it!

Yes.
From the on-line User Manual (a good resource):
Filtering Files by Type During Import
Some digital cameras allow you to attach audio attachments to your images. For example, some cameras allow you to record audio annotations for an image after you shoot it. The camera attaches the audio file to the image file so that you can review the audio when you download the image. When you connect a digital camera or card reader or point to a folder with images on your computer, Aperture recognizes any image that has an audio attachment. You can also import standalone QuickTime-compatible audio and video files.
To filter files by type during import 
In the Import browser, choose File Type from the Import Settings pop-up menu.The File Type controls appear in the Import browser.
Do any of the following:All images matching the selected criteria appear in the Import browser. To make all the images reappear, deselect the checkboxes above.
To exclude image files, leaving only audio and video files available for import: Select the “Exclude photos” checkbox.
To exclude video files during import: Select the “Exclude videos” checkbox.
To exclude audio files during import: Select the “Exclude audio files” checkbox.
To exclude all audio files attached to the images: Select the “Exclude audio attachments” checkbox.
To include only files that were flagged or locked using the camera: Select the “Only include files flagged/locked in camera” checkbox.
(Not sure why the graphic doesn't show.  Just click the link.)

  • Hi. I opened iPhoto and, suddenly, it tells me " WHAT IPHOTO LIBRARY DO I WANT TO USE?" but i had a iPhoto library. When i search on my Pictures, i have the file IPHOTO LIBRARY but it appears on a dim letters and i can not open it.

    Hi. I need some help on the following problem. I opened iPhoto and, suddenly, it tells me " WHAT IPHOTO LIBRARY DO I WANT TO USE?" but i had a iPhoto library. When i search on my Pictures, i have the file IPHOTO LIBRARY but is was not the icon on it i previously remembered and it appears on a dim letters and it can not be opened ... How can i recover it??

    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. .

  • I recently upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.2 and Aperture 2.1.4 will no longer open.  I cannot access my photos and I don't want to pay for latest version of Aperture since this application is no longer going to be supported.  How can I get my pictures?

    If you want just the originals, then you can go into the Aperture library (right click on it and do "show package contents"). Inside is a directory called "Masters" and you can find the original files in a bunch of subfolders.
    But... you'll lose all adjustments, keywords, and other information, and just have the files as they were imported originally from the cameras.
    Easiest is probably to buy Aperture and update everything, and then migrate to the Photos application down the road if that's what you want. Aperture 3.0 came out in 2010 (five years ago!) so it's not like you've upgraded in a while

  • How can I attach a photo to an existing email ? (iPhone 4s and I don't know what iPhoto is)

    Someone please help ! I'm a new owner of an iPhone 4s and I need to attach a photo to an existing email, but can't figure out how to do it. I have no idea what iPhoto is and need every step spelled out, in great detail, as I'm still very new at all the wonders of this great phone.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sandy

    There is (to my knowledge) no way to do this with an existing email.  You can create a new email message with a photo attachment from your 'Photos' app though.  Open your photos app, select which photo you want to email, and then click the arrow in the botom left hand corner, and choose 'Mail.

  • Can Aperture do this edit?

    I have a photo of what appears to be a homeless man busking with a flute on the streets of New York. Everything about the photo is fine except his skin has a reddish tint and his red hat is oversaturated. I want to make his skin look more natural and tone down the red hat. Can Aperture do this, or do I need a more specialized editing program?

    Aperture can do almost any pixel-level adjusting to hue, luminance, or saturation.  Aperture cannot do any compositing -- for that you'll need a graphics program.
    "Tone down" is expressed (perhaps) in photo editing/retouching as lowering the saturation.  You can use the Saturation Quick Brush, or the Enhance Brick, or the Color Brick to do this.

  • How can I get my aperture library exported to iphoto?

    Can anyone specifically tell me how to move pictures from aperture to iphoto? Thanks!

    You can't import an entire actual Aperture library file into iPhoto.
    But you can always create an album with all the images you want to export, select File>Export Versions and then export them to a folder where you can then import them from within iPhoto. You'll be making duplicates (just so you'll know that it will take up some additional disk space.)
    If you have some sort of structure you want, you could do this with multiple albums so that iPhoto imports them as individual rolls.

    iPhoto app stops responding upon launch. Please help how I can fix this problem., iPhoto app stops responding upon launch. Please help how I can fix this problem.

    Please clarify:
    What is your iPhoto version?
    And what do you mean by "not responding"? Is iPhoto hanging and showing the spinning beachball?
    Can you launch iPhoto, if you hold down the options key while launching and select or create a different library?

  • I can not open iPhoto. this is the messageShut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command ki get.

    Shut down and restart your computer, and then open iPhoto again. If the problem persists, try rebuilding your photo library. To do this, quit iPhoto, and then reopen it while keeping the Option and Command keys pressed. You can also try restoring your photo library from a backup.

    Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that any helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.

  • Can Aperture do this?

    First, this post is not to flame Aperture. It is intended to demonstrate features that need improvement, in an effort to bring the feature set up.
    Aperture and Lightroom both have cloning/spotting tools.
    IMO the clone/heal tool in LR is superior.
    Can Aperture do this?
    Original jpg straight from D2x:
    Added a dark vignette, desaturated all colors and brought back just orange and some red for a quick non destructive hand tint, but the orange powercord, being orange stuck out..
    11 healing spots and one clone spot in LR:
    Results:
    Close up:
    GRANTED, PS/CS3 would do a better job, but IMO this is good enough and only took a minute. Plus it kept me out of PS/CS3

    Using the color adjustments in Aperture to can selectively desaturate all colors and increase the saturation of red and yellow to get a similar effect.
    I do agree that the patch tool is not even close to the one in Lightroom. I miss as well the vignette tool in Aperture.
    When adjusting a wedding for example a proper patch tool and a vignette tool will save all the round trips to photoshop when creating proofs or web galleries to show to customers.
    If we had some kind of quick mask and a buttom to allow new adjustments on an area of the image will save lots of round trips to photoshop in final images. For example, need to light up someone's face in a photo. Select this quick mask tool, paint on the face, press on the buttom that would say 'new adjusment area' and use levels to lighting it up. Would be perfect for me.

  • I want to take the heads of people in one picture and put them in another, can i do this in iphoto?

    i want to take the heads of my dogs from one photo and put them on people heads in another. can i do this in iphoto?

    No. You'll need an external editor for that.
    In order of price here are some suggestions:
    Seashore (free)
    The Gimp (free)
    Graphic Coverter ($45 approx)
    Acorn ($50 approx)
    Pixelmator ($50 approx)
    Photoshop Elements ($75 approx)
    There are many, many other options. Search on MacUpdate. You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

    I have iPhoto 2 and just loaded OSX 10.5.8. What iPhoto do I need and where can I find it?

    iLife11 is SnowLeo 10.6.x (and therfore Intel only). Version 09 would be the last ppc 10.5.x compatible.
    I for sure remember to have loaded the full ilife 06 suite on Leopard back then , it ran fine.
    So you could look for any version from ilife 06 to ilife 09 to be on a safe side, they work all on Intel and PPC and also all on 10.5.x .
    Of course the newer the version, the more features ( but the more power is needed ).
