Consolidate all photos in Aperture

Hello,
when I first imported my iPhoto library to Aperture, I choose to store files in their original location.
Now I would like to move all iPhoto files to Aperture to manage only one library. I meanwhile adjusted pictures, changed the way they are displyed and so on in Aperture.
How can I now consolidate all pictures in Aperture without loosing all the work I did in-between?
Thanks for your help here

  • Can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5

    I can not sync all photos in Aperture into Iphone 5. It always can sync some photos into 5. Then finish and prompts: "itunes can not synchronize (other)thousands of projects, and see more information in itunes".  That means most of my photos can not seen on Iphone 5, it seems just can't import to 5. Is that the problem of Iphone or the pictures in Aperture, or even just because lack of sufficient space?

  • How can I consolidate all photos from different users on one computer?

    We just enable one computer to be the "Family" computer. I want to be able to consolidate all photos from the different users into one location. That way no matter wich user is login they can see and browse all the family photos. How can I do that? Do I need and external drive?
    Thanks in advance?

    Move the iPhoto Library to the Users/Shared folder, or you can use an external disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
    Merge the Libraries as Larry says, with the paid version of Library Manager.
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Each account will have full access to the library, in fact, each account will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

  • New Apple TV: 1) read all photos from Aperture (projects) 2) assign music

    Hi,
    i'd like to buy your new AppleTV but would like to know:
    1) Is it possible to real all the photos within Aperture Projects ?
    With AppleTV 1 gen isn't possible, i need to create first album cause photo in projects aren't shown!
    2) i'd like to pre-assign for each slideshow a music (from iTunes): is it possible with 2nd gen Apple TV ?

    Yes, I have the same issue also.
    It look like only the last import is missing somehow.
    For example, yesterday I import photos from DC and iPhone, and put them in one event.
    Only the DC part shown up, and iPhone photo are missing.
    If I use "Last 12 month" section in Apple TV and jump to bottom, you can see some empty squares, and not viewable. Somehow it is not updated.

  • Unable to view all photos in Aperture library

    Only the last upload of photos are viewable.  Photos are on a Lacie external HD as is Aperture.  It does list the 407 Projects, 39512 photos but thumbnails of the events are blank.  I checked the Photo Filter and all boxes are unchecked.
    Any suggestions?
    Very nervous...... : (

    Please tell us more, so we can get a clear picture:
    What is your Aperture version?
    Photos are on a Lacie external HD as is Aperture.
    Do you mean you have a referenced library, and the referenced originals are on your Lacie drive? Or is your library managed and the whole library is on the external?
    Does  "as is Aperture" mean, that your Aperture application is also on the external?
    How is your external drive formatted and how is it connected?
    39512 photos but thumbnails of the events are blank.
    In what way "blank" - do you see dashed outlines, or are they black?
    Are your original image files raw or in another image format?
    Do you have a current backup of your Lacie drive?
    Regards

  • How do I consolidate all of my events into one big group of photos so I can see them all?

    The title says it all. How do I consolidate all of my events into one big group of photos so I can see them all? Instead a bunch of events.

    drag them together
    Or click on Photo in the source pane on the left and under the view menu uncheck show event titles

         Hi Frank.
         I have just had jb Atlanta's problem while adjusting the contrast on a photo. I was creating a slideshow at the time. After a lot of reading up I was about to give up when I tried restoring the file to its original settings as you suggested. Bingo!
         However, that would only work for me, if I restored the settings while in the slideshow. All data had 'disappeared' when I attempted to open the photo in its original project folder.
         Hope this is of help. Many thanks.

  • IPhoto to Aperture 3 import - not all photos get imported...

    Hello - My library is not huge, only about 8000 photos. Just bought Aperture 3 and imported my iPhoto library into A3. Seemed to go without issues. Today, as I re-organize a few folders, projects, etc., I realize that not all the photos were imported. About 700, to be exact. Every named Event in iPhoto imported over into A3, but not all photos within each Event (now Project). Any thoughts on what could have happened and how this could be avoided?
    I could import each Event individually, but then I would loose all my keywords. Any work around you can think of? Thanks!

    Try rebuild your iPhoto Library:
    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, faces and places back.
    I would import each event individually, but I would like my keywords preserved
    Using the iPhoto Media Browser (File -> Import -> Show iPhoto Browser) will get your keywords too.
    Regards
    TD
    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.

  • How to view all photo's in an Aperture project using Front Row?

    My projects have folders below them where I actually store the photos. In Front Row I cannot select a "top level folder" (let's say a project in Aperture) and press the play button on the Apple remote. Instead, it drills down into the project/folder until I have reached a folder that doesn't contain subfolders anymore. The effect is that I cannot simply see all photos in a project.
    I suppose I can work around this by creating a dummy folder in the project, copying all photos of the project into that folder and use that to view it in Front Row, but I'm hoping there is a setting somewhere that would circumvent this stupid behavior?

    Hello Keaux2r,
    Do you mean that you want to use command to remotely check the updates?
    We could use the PsExec tool to conduct the remote control.
    1. Download the tool and copy to file to C:\Windows\System32
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897553.aspx
    2. Run cmd as administrator
    3. We could run the command psexec \\<computername > -u <username> -p <password> <command> to run command in remote computer.

  • I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.

    I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.  There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.

    Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
         File > New > Smart Album:
    Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
    and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
    Set the scope of the search to "Library"
    If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them.  Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
    Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
    You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active.

  • Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream.

    Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream.  I have re-set photo stream from within the aperture app, but it only downloads a small fraction of my photo stream.  Any ideas?

    Sorry but you're wrong, as the article that you quoted pointed out
    Since your Mac has more storage than your iOS devices, your photos automatically download and your Mac keeps every photo from your Photo Stream by default

  • Aperture won't detect all photos from Camera

    Hi everyone, i have got an annoying problem when trying to use aperture
    My system: 27inch iMac, Snow Leopard 10.6.2, Aperture 2.1.4
    Camera: Canon 5D MK2
    I went out to film a wedding, and took about 1000 photos, when i came home and connect my camera to iMac via USB, and click IMPORT, aperture starts to show the pics from the camera..
    However, it only found about 400 pics in the camera..
    I have to unplug USB, quit aperture, and restart.. it found about 700
    again, it found all that 1000 photos
    why is this? anyone had this problem before? Thanks

    Can't offer you a solution, but I can keep you company.
    Had this issue myself with a 400d since I converted to Mac. Always takes 2 attempts to import all photos. Installed SN before I installed Ap so can't give you a before and after scenario. However, I have tried different memory cards, USB cables and USB ports on my MBP to no effect.
    All photos will import from the camera to Paint Shop Pro or to proprietary Canon s/ware on a PC & I have no issues importing from USB sticks. So to my mind that narrows it down to an Ap specific issue. I've endured the problem as I've been saving to upgrade my cam body for 10 months & hoped to buy my way out of the extra step in my workflow. However, guess which cam body I was going to go for?!

  • I ran repair disk permissions an all my photos in aperture are gone. How can I get them back?

    I ran repair disk permissions an all my photos in aperture are gone. How can I get them back?

    If you've turned on "Find my iPhone" on the device you can track its location at iCloud. The device must be powered on and have internet access to be located.
    Doubtful you ever backed up your "camera roll" to iCloud but you may have backed it up to your computer via iTunes. You can "restore" that backup to your new iOS device but you can't view the contents of that backup and pick out pieces of it.

  • Aperture 3.2.1 not importing all photos from card reader

    Aperture is not importing all photos from the card reader, i tried importing 720 photos and it was only seeing 480 photos, the card reader stopped reading, aperture was saying "loading assets", still,  like if it was still reading the card. and the first time it loaded the pictures the import button was not availllable once not all the photos were not all loaded when the loading assets message stopped.
    i  had to force quit aperture, ejecting the card from the reader, aperture, on relaunch was still seeing the card as present but it was ejected from the finder , and  physicaly on the desk.
    i had to go in Apple Acticity monitor to find a process that was still active , someting called mass media and had to stop it.
    my work around was manually copying the content of the card on the external hard drive about  9 gig of photos on the external HDD where i keep my aperture photos.  copying 9 gig of photos over usb2 took an 50 minutes.
    i had jpegs raw and some videos in 720p
    i have a MBP 2.26 ghz 13"
    a Canon 7D and a Lexar 16 gig compact flash card.

    I'm sorry, but I can't understand this paragraph. It seems like the "loading assets" message stopped but not all the photos were showing up in the import window. Were any of the photos duplicates? How long did you wait until you forced quit?
    When you say "the first time it loadedthe pictures" you mean you attempted before and got the same result?
    It does seem like it is either getting stuck on an image or is taking a long time to read the images off the card since the import button is not available...
    When you copied the files to your external drive, you were then able to import to Aperture?
    Thanks
