Can I create a canvas in Aperture?

Hi,
I need to order 5x7 images on 8x10 sheets on line.
Apparently, in Photoshop, one creates a canvas to one's specifications and then send the new file to be printed accordingly.
How do we achieve that in Aperture? Can we?
I know it can be done when ordering books via Aperture.
Thanks,
Raphael

Raphael, I have no idea, what could be different in your case.
I just select the image and export it using BorderFX:
In BorderFX:
And the exported image on my Desktop:
And exporting the image again, after adding a retouche and exporting regularly:
So, exporting is still working for me. Did you use BorderFX as "Edit" plug-in or "Export" plug-in?
Try to use the "Export" version of the plug-in.
So, how to fix your broken "Export"?
Have you tried to change the "Export" preset in your "Export" panel?
If that does not help, I'd Quit Aperture. and remove the file
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Export Presets.plist
from your user library.
Also the sandbox:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Aperture/Data/Library/
Then reboot.

How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original? Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display/

How can I create a slideshow that depicts only a version of a photo rather than the original? Since the original and new versions are saved together, the aperture slideshow often choices the original rather than the desired version to display.

There are two things we use the name "Slideshow" for in Aperture: a Slideshow Album, used for making Slideshows, and the Slideshow that is made. (Imho, it is a design mistake to not call the containers used to create Slideshows, Books, etc., "Albums".)
The Slideshow will use the Album Pick from any Stack. A good way to use Aperture is to promote the Image you want to regularly use (such as, for example, a Version with adjustments) to the top of the Stack. This makes it the Stack Pick, and will be the default Album Pick. If you haven't done that, you can still change the Album Pick for any Stack in a Slideshow Album. Expand your Stack(s), select the Image in each Stack that you want to be the Album Pick (and thus shown in the Slideshow), and "Stacks➞Set Album Pick". (Note the keyboard shortcut; there is also a Toolbar icon for this.) The change is immediate. The Slideshow will always show the Album Pick (or, if there is not one, the Stack Pick) for every Stack in your Slideshow Album.

Aperture 2.1.1 and OS X 10.5.5. - Can't create nor update Vaults!

After updating to OS X 10.5.5 and installing the latest RAW file plug-ins update from Apple yesterday, I cannot update my existing Aperture vaults, I get the following error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I deleted both vaults, created new vault, and when I press Update button, it compares empty vault to my library for some 4-5 minutes (why?! It's just empty vault!) and then Aperture shows the same message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I ran Disk Utility - Repair Disk Permissions - no problems. I installed 10.5.5. combo update over the existing system, restarted, and still I cannot create a new vault. The same error message. Any ideas why?
In Console I see two lines from Aperture:
08.9.17 19:28:52 Aperture[336] .sdef error: Operation could not be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 1549.)
08.9.17 19:28:52 Aperture[336] line number: 2
I don't know is it related to this problem or not.

I am having exact same problems. Software update says that I have all the latest updates for system and Aperture (including the latest RAW file plug-ins). I can't update vaults. Every time I try to update, I get the following error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I have deleted all vaults and tried creating new vaults. Aperture will permit the creation of the vault, but when I attempt to update it for the first time, Aperture works away for a while comparing the 'library' to the empty vault and returns the exact same error message:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I rebooted computer and restarted Aperture holding down the option key. I requested that Aperture perform a 'Consistency Check' and when completed, I restarted Aperture the same way so that I could request that Aperture 'Rebuild Now' all projects. Once both activities had finished, I tired again to create a vault and update it and was able to create the vault, but unable to update it. The same message was returned:
The following error occurred:
Aperture has detected a problem with the vault “Aperture Vault”. You need to remove this vault and create a new one.
I did notice a change in Aperture's behavior before and after performing the 'Consistency Check'. Before performing the consistency check, Aperture had stopped giving this message upon quitting:
'Updating information for sharing previews'
After the consistency check, Aperture upon quitting would update information for sharing previews.
Is there a fix for this?

You can add more images to your book, by dragging them from the browser to your book album. Switch to the Library Inspector, select the album or project with the images in the source list, and then drag these images onto the book icon. That will add them to the book album, and then double click the book album again to continue working with the book.

Can't create new photo streams in Aperture

When I select new photos to add to a photo stream, I am not prompted to create a new photo stream, they are simply sent to the stock photo stream that is already shared between my iPhone and Aperture. How can I create new photo streams in Aperture if the standard method doesn't work for me? What is wrong with my setup that I can't follow the videos of instructions because I don't get a dialog box when I try to share?
Thanks,
Will

Is your Profile signature correct Mac OS X (10.7.5) ? Then you cannot create Shared Photo Streams. They require OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 and Aperture 3.4, see:
Using and troubleshooting shared photo streams.
You can create Shared Photo Streams with:
an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iOS 6
a Mac using OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.2 with Photo 9.4 or later or Aperture 3.4 or later
a PC using Windows 8, Windows 7, or Vista with the iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed. (iCloud Control Panel 2.1 required with Windows 8.)
If your system is compatible with shared streams, check, if you have enabled shared streams in both the System Preferences and Aperture's Preferences.

How can i create a more detailed map in aperture?

How can i create a more detaled map in Aperture- Book?

There are no templates for more detailed maps in Aperture.
You might consider to add more detailed maps as photos to the photo boxes in the book. I sometimes simply take a screenshot of the map in "Places" view to get a more detailed map with the pins marking the places.

Can you transfer book created in iPhoto to Aperture?

Can I transfer or move books I have created in iPhoto to Aperture?

If you open the Library in Aperture you'll be able to edit the book.
Are you sure, TD?
When I open a library I created in iPhoto 9.6 in Aperture 3.6, the Photo Books will give me this warning:
"iPhoto Print Projects" cannot be edited in Aperture."
It is also mentioned in Aperture 3: Using a unified photo library with iPhoto and Aperture - Apple Support
Print Products
Books, calendars and cards you create in iPhoto are visible in the Source list in Aperture, but cannot be edited. Books, web pages, and web journals you create in Aperture are not visible in iPhoto.

How can I create and export a file in 1024x768? Is the size supported in FCPX?

I'm trying to create a video to export and upload on YouTube, and we want to do it at 1024x768. FCPX does not support this file size. Ideally how can I
1) Create a canvas size in 1024x768 (or the same aspect ratio)
2) Export my video at 1024x768 (here it has to be the exact dimensions).
I feel so dippy, this seems like it should be obvious but I can't figure it out! Closest I've gotten is 2048x1556. Thanks for any help!

The technique explained in the Creative Cow tutorial works perfectly. I use it all the time for the odd aspect ratios we work in for video walls. It does feel odd working in FCPX without creating a Project (Compound Clips are stored in Events) but hapily you have all the editing capabilities in a Compound Clip timeline as you do in a Project timeline.
It would be nice if FCPX allowed us to enter custom sizes for Projects like one can in FCP7. But FCPX with this technique actually handles odd aspect ratios better than 7 did. I used to run color shifts and transition problems doing this in 7.
I once called Apple tech support about the problems in 7 and they told me that although you can enter custom resoulutions in FCP7, Apple doesn't support anything other than standard resolutions. I guess they clarified that position with FCPX.
Come on Apple (and YouTube and Vimeo.) Not everyone lives in a 16x9 world. My daughter, as do most teens, shoots all video at 9x16. Surely that resolution will soon have to be supported.

Since I believe you can't create a Photo album (book) in Apperature, what is the best way to transfer my pictures from my Apperature Library to iPhoto without loosing any picture quality?

Why do you think that? You can create printed Books in Aperture with similar themes as in iPhoto, and with more options to create custom themes on your own.
See this page - http://www.apple.com/aperture/what-is.html - scroll down to see the example books.
But if you prefer the iPhoto themes and layout, you can open your Aperture library in iPhoto, if you have both the current version of iPhoto and Aperture. Simply use the command "File > Open Library in iPhoto" and you can create your book in iPhoto.
And switch back to Aperture by using the command "File > Open Library in Aperture".

The Aperture Library could not be created at "/Volumes/Data/Aperture Library.aplibrary". Check the path and try again.

Hi,
I cannot reopen library. During opening aperture I can see a list of libraries. After selection "Aperture library.aplibrary" (default I guess) msg box is open
"Library info directory path contains a file where a folder was expected.
The Aperture Library could not be created at “/Volumes/Data/Aperture Library.aplibrary”. Check the path and try again."
Moreover, aperture library is not visible in other apps like Final Cut X Pro. I assume this is caused by the aperture problem.
Can anybody help me?

Sounds strange.
Did you try to double click your "Aperture Library.aplibrary"?
Maybe trying to open backuped library...
Or creating a new library by pressing the alt key when clicking on the Aperture Dock icon.

Can you create a .ics file from entries in a PDF?

Hi,
I'm wondering if anyone can help me: Can you create a .ics file from entries in PDF?
Example:
I'm wanting people to be able to choose a number of dates for some events within a PDF, then click a button that will then create a (or number of) .ics files so they can add those dates to the calendar of their choice. Is this possible?
Thanks

Using the solution supplied by Leonia, and cited by Keith, you can do the same thing (flopping the Curve profiles) in LightRoom. So, it makes sense. Though I didn't know know it worked for Color Negatives.
A friend of mine with a Nikon Coolscan is going to scan nearly 150 B&W rolls of 35mm negatives for me, and I want to import them all into Aperture, naming and keywording as I go. The objective is, of course, to have the convenience of a diigtal library. But also to have some made into large prints for framing.

Creating tab canvas inside another tab canvas

pleas help me solving the issue...
I want controlling code such that i can create tabpage canvas into another one.
second tab page of first tab canvas it should be visible.
regards
jai

As long as i know something like this is not possible.
But you can emulate it this way (for this example i will assume that you want the smaller tab-canvas placed on the second page of the bigger tab-canvas) :
1. create a tab-canvas
2. create a stacked-canvas with bevel=none
3. create a new tab-canvas and place it on your stacked-canvas
4. make the stacked-canvas invisible
5. through the trigger WHEN-TAB-PAGE-CHANGED make your stacked-canvas visible whenever you are on page 2 and invisible whenever you are on another page.
6. adjust the coordinates of your stacked-canvas so it will appear right above the bigger tab-canvas
Good luck with this

How to create a " canvas " tag?

Hi everyone.
Today I came across with a visualization library named as processing.js. As far as i learn, to use this library we have to create a tag like "<canvas id="processing-canvas"> </canvas>"
Now, i wonder that; how can i create this element in Adobe Edge? I'm sure its possible, but how? If you help me, i'll be glad. Also if somebody can show me how to do a little demo with processing.js in Adobe Edge, i will be very pleasured!
Thanks.

I am not very sure how the processingJS library works ,but you can insert a canvas tag into Edge Animate content through the append Jquery api i.e
1)Create a rectangle element on stage
2)IN the 'creation complete ' event of the stage add the code
sym.$("Rectangle").append('<canvas id="processing-canvas"> </canvas>');
This will insert canvas element into animate.
You can import processing js library in edge ainmite using the new 'script loading' feature in EA3.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=888bbVsIlas
Hope this helps you!
