Cannot Run aperture 2.1.4 with Yosemite

Unfortunately after updating to Yosemite found that Aperture 2.1.4 that was running OK with Maverick is now an unsupported Software. How can Apple do this?
The installation process was not quick so I think that the developers should have a bit of the Customer Hat on and scan the HD for incompatible Software and alert that some specific software is not going to run after the update BEFORE go ahead and give the Customers a Hard Time, and this is an Apple Software.
I am not sure that somebody will come with the solution other than buy the Upgrade but at least I wan to set the record straight. After several years of loyalty with Apple I think that now a lot of users may want to reconsider keep supporting this brand unless the Developing head and Team start to think more like a Customer.
Thanks

Thanks, appreciate the feedback. Aperture 2.1.4 was a paid application, actually I paid U$200.00 for it and should not be banned form the OS that the very same vendor develops.
But stil the point I want to make is that Apple OS Should run a Hard Drive Scan and advice about potential issues like this before proceeding with the installation, at least the user can take an educated decision and not be frustrated because of the ugly surprise that comes after the update is completed.
I have Aperture 3 installed in a MacPro but I had a terrible experience with the last major update, to the extent that Apple Engineers worked with me for a solid two weeks in order ot identify the problem and come with a new minor release to correct incompability with 3 TB Hard Drives. With that experience I did not want to risk for more headaches and maintained Aperture 2.1 in this other machine, it worked OK with Mavericks.
As I stated in the original post, I do not expect that somebody tells me that I need to update, kind of know that. The concern is that Apple has been increasingly careless with the Customer experience with the last updates they released, another example is the iTunes / Podcasts mishap that kept the forums quite busy for a while. The new iTunes has a UI that is quite different from the previous version and same issue with older one. I see that is fancy but recalling the famous phrase about a Mac is the computer I would buy for my mother... I see that consistency should be the key in order to keep audience loyal, very few people is willing to learn ahow to use the very same application with every new update, that in some cases you are forced to install in order to be able to access your content or connect the peripherals you may own.

  • Firefox is already running but is not responding - Cannot run Firefox on multiple machines with in a network (parent.lock)

    Environment - Single File Server & 6 workstations.
    I have a single generic user account/profile and log on to all 6 workstations at the same time (1 user, 1 password, 6 workstations).
    I need to run firefox on all the workstations with the same user and user profile.
    However, as soon as one user opens firefox all the others get the message "Firefox is already running but is not responding" and can not open the browser. No other workstations can open Firefox. I can only run 1 instance of Firefox in this scenario. How can I run it on all 6 with a single user account?
    I have been back to the server and deleted the parent.lock file but it is recreated again as soon as someone open a firefox browser and the problem starts al over again.
    Please - How can I get a single user with a single profile to run firefox on 6 workstations simultaneously?
    Thank You

    hello timfarr, you cannot do that - many essential databases (like bookamrks, passwords etc.) in your profile are not designed to be accessed by different processes at the same time...

  • ITunes cannot run....problem with sound

    iTunes had been running on my PC. I've made no changes on my computer.
    Now when trying to open iTunes, this message appears and iTunes will not run:
    "iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration"
    I checked the audio config and it seems fine. My drivers are up to date. I removed the "Soundmax Integrated Digital Audio" driver then allowed it to re-install on its own. Sound still seems to work fine but iTunes will not open.
    Thanks in Advance for your assistance and ideas.
    John

    that one is typically caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)
    the following document may be of some assistance with that:

  • Anyone Running Aperture 3, One library with 150,000+ Photos?

    Would like to now if anyone is running Aperture 3 with a very large Library? Ideally I would like to hear from anyone running one library with 150,000 images or more. I'm planning to Import just short of 200,000 images and I'm hoping it will handle it. If anyone responds I would be grateful for mac specs as well. . Thanks for your input in advance.

    You'll not have any trouble with most processes on any dual-core 2GHz Mac with 4 or more GB RAM.  (With only 4 GB, you shouldn't run any other programs when Aperture in running.) 
    Sharing Previews is a no-no (but IME it is the single biggest bog-field in the app).  Load time will go up.  Faces may become slow.  It will take A LONG TIME (days) for Aperture to finish all its initial internal processing.  Search the forum for general suggestions on keeping Aperture running well.
    I built up a test library of 250,000 images just to make sure.  I was able to run this Library off of an external FW400 drive (the whole Library, not just the Masters) on a 2.3 GHZ dual-core laptop w. 4 GB RAM.
    I have since put together a database of 350,000+ images.  It runs fine.  I'd say it runs "normal" on all machines, as long as operations are kept to 100 images or so.  Relocating a quarter-million Masters will take some time.  Moving 10,000 images into new Projects, or moving those Projects into new Albums, can take a few minutes (but under ten).
    You should set aside a week for the import and all the processing.  I strongly suggest turning Faces off until the Library is structured and working (you've made most major changes and you've not stumbled across any glitches).  Then you can turn Faces on and let it run in the background for a few days.  I suggest NEVER turning on "Share Previews".  YMMV.
    My experience w. a 350,000 image Library leads me to believe that it could handle 10x that.  The breakdown of the work seems to have been well-engineered to fit the currently available pipelines.  But -- the faster your machine, the faster Aperture will run.  Tony Gay and I compared his PowerMac with my MacBookPro for some Aperture tasks -- his was twice as fast.

  • Cannot open iMovie 10.0.6 with Yosemite upgrade on 2014 Macbook Air

    I updated OS X to Yosemite and noticed I cannot open iMovie.  Updated both iPhoto & iMovie and it still is not working giving me error message, "You can’t use this version of the application “iMovie” with this version of OS X."  " You have iMovie 10.0", even though I just updated to 10.0.6
    I restarted few times, updated both iPhoto and iMovie . . . still not opening from dock.
    This is running on MacBook Air 2013  w/ 2Ghz i7 w/ 8G memory...
    OK, now what?
    thank you!!

    I just tried to open iMovie for the first time since upgrading to Yosemite and it tries to load all my projects and then crashes out with a error.  It will not open at all.

  • Photoshop 5.1 won't run on brand new Mac with Yosemite

    Help please! I am a photography teacher and I just purchased 8 brand new MacBook pros for my classroom. I asked my IT guy to install Photoshop 5.1 on all of them. On 3 of the 8, it is not working. I get a window that says "For the Photoshop UI to display correctly, open System Preferences, click Appearance, and turn off text smoothing for font sizes 8 and smaller" (included screen shot). We are running Yosemite and this option does not even exist in System Preferences. It's only an option on older Macs. We can't even use Photoshop because when I click OK, photoshop closes completely. My IT guy is NO help... Any suggestions?????

    Hello All,
    I'm actually on my second Mac mini in a month (I returned the first one) with the same problem. I didn't have Perian installed, and certainly not Windows Media. I also have the problem that when I turn the computer on, it freezes on the Apple logo and the spinning gear stops turning. I have to shut down, then when I turn computer back on, it goes directly to the log in window. It will work fine from there. And most times, iMovie will start no problem. I hope that I don't have to return this one as well, but I might have to.

  • Cannot open Aperture 3.5.1 in Yosemite

    Since upgrading to Yosemite 10.10.3 (including Photos) Aperture 3.5.1 will no longer open.  I get the message "In order to open Aperture.app, you need to update to the latest version."  However, when I search the Mac App Store I get a message saying the item I searched for is not available in the US App Store.  Is there a way to continue to use Aperture?

  • Cannot run reader in protected mode with MS Office 2010

    I just set up 6 identical Dell Optiplex XE machines with Office Home and Business 2010 pre-loaded.  Reader 10.1.1 will run in protected mode if it is installed before I go through the Office 2010 activation/installation procedure.  On the 2 machines where Office was set up before installing Adobe reader, protected mode will not work.  If protected mode is not enabled, I cannot go into preferences - general and turn the protected mode log to try to debug this problem.  For now I an running those two machines with protected mode off.  Has anyone else seen this?

    You should always use official documentation for support details but I am pretty sure Windows 7 support was not available for the EAS client until 11.1.1.3.

  • I cannot run the 13.0r0 flashplayer with the 28.0 firefox. I have tried EVERYTHING! I also can no longer run an archived player just tell me to update.

    running firefox 28, trying to run flashplayer 13.0r0, have windows vista. At this point I can't even pull up the logo to disable the acceleration - that is the only thing I have not been able to try. All I ever get is that the flashplayer has stopped and windows is searching for a solution..... I also did the firefox reset which did not work. Is this fixable or do I need to purchase a new modem????

    You can check for problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions and try this:
    *disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
    *disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

  • Iphoto and aperture start up problem with Yosemite

    Just found out that after installing Yosemite, both my iPhoto and aperture library took very long in order to show up contents after start up. Not sure what causes the delay, does anyone else experience the same problem? For reference, I am using late 2013 15" Macbook pro.

    In the case of Aperture you can open the Activity window and check what Aperture is doing.
    From Aperture's main menu bar:   Window  > Show Activity
    When Aperture launched the first time, I saw the following activities, that took a noticable amount of time:
    Importing iCloud photos
    Scanning faces
    Rendering previews for iCloud videos.

  • Needing to run Mountain Lion with Yosemite OS

    I'm needing to run Mountain Lion and I've got a new Retina 15" MBP that shipped with Yosemite. I've been told you cannot run it on a partition with Yosemite. What is the best way to go about doing this? I'm needing to have access to Pro Tools 10 as some of my plug ins aren't AAX compatible yet. Can this be done from a USB 3.0 drive or even Firewire 800 (via thunderbolt to FW800 adapter) if I do a bootable clone? I dunno if Boot Camp allows for this kind of operation or not. Any insight would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Austin

    BootCamp is for running Windows on a Mac, not other Mac OS X versions.
    The Mac computers ship with an EFI boot ROM that will not allow booting a version of Mac OS X older than that shipped on the Mac...which means, you cannot get your new  MBPr to boot Mountain Lion since it shipped with Yosemite, two generations newer than what you want to run.
    Best bet is contact the Power Tools folks and see if they have a version that is compatible with Yosemite.

  • What hardware r u running Aperture on?

    Just curious what people are running Aperture on:  MacBook Pro with/or without an external monitor, beefy iMac, Mac Pro...  maybe two different setups?  What are you using?

    What Psilo said. Consider waiting for the new Mac Pros if you want a stuck-in-one-place desktop box.
    Any top-end Sandy Bridge iMac or MBP box will rock Aperture if you order it with strong graphics and an SSD. IMO using hard drives for laptop boot drives is obsolete.
    A top-end Sandy Bridge MBP truly is a desktop replacment - - but still mobile.
    In my case Aperture (3.1.2) on the 2011 17" MBP (OS 10.6.8, 8 GB RAM, high resolution matte display) with Apple's SSD imports 3 GB of RAW+JPEG images in much less than a minute and has those images fully processed in about 5 minutes. IMO hella fast. And edits (with both the Aperture Library and referenced Masters on the SSD) are essentially instant.
    iMacs are good value and strong, but the problems with even the best Thunderbolt iMacs are:
    • Glossy-only display that not everyone can tolerate. Personally they gag me.
    • Hard drives are only upgradable by Apple, a sucky new trick in Apple's bag.
    • They are sessile desktop-constrained boxes but lack the versatility and upgradability of Mac Pros.
    But as far as Aperture performance goes all the top end Thunderbolt boxes will be spectacular.
    I used to have a MP plus MBP setup, but with the 2011 Sandy Bridge MBP I now use the one 17" MBP (plus secondary display when not in the field) for everything.
