Copy some folders of photos from Aperture to iPad

I want to copy 3 or 4 folders of pics from my Mac (Aperture) to an ipad. when I sync a folder it works and then when i sync a 2nd folder it deletes the original synced one. Can I put 3 or 4 folders into one folder and sync that, but how will it display on the ipad

Are you syncing a folder in the Finder or a folder in Aperture?
Each sync will replace the previously synced content. So you need to sync more than a library item from Aperture at once.
You can select multiple Aperture albums, projects, Faces, Places, when you sync your iPad with your mac in iTunes.
Just set the "Photos" tab in iTunes to "Sync Photos from" to "Aperture", not to "Folder".
See this link to a support document:   iTunes: Syncing photos
It shows, how to set iTunes to sync from Aperture or iPhoto.

  • How do I transfer some folders of photo from one macbook to another? I do not want the complete library right now

    How do I transfer some photos from an external harddrive (with backup data from one macbook) to another macbook? Ideally, I'd also like to transfer albums as well that photos are linked to.  I need to do this because my macbook is broken and I need to work on photos for the holidays.  I'm not interested in transferring the full library necessarily at this time..but if that is the easiest thing to do let me know.  There are already some photos in the "new" computer's iphoto. 

    Thank you very much Terence for your input.  I successfully transferred the library and attempted to open it on my "new" mac.  However, unfortunately, I discovered the OS and iphoto have not been updated for some time so it couldn't open..argh. 
    My photos were in a 9.4.3 version of iPhoto, so it looks like to get that on this new computer I have to upgrade to snow leopard and then to Lion (not wanting to go all the way up in OS necessarily if it will slow my computer down more).  However, is there a way to open a version 9.4.3 library on an iPhoto app from snow leopard? 

  • Can I copy some of my photos from iPhoto to my camera?

    My computer does not have a slot for a camera memory card and my daughter sent a digital photo frame that requires insertion of a memory card.  Most of my photos are on the computer or from photo stream on my iphone.

    No, not unless you camera shows up on the Desktop as a external device.
    The simplest solution is to get a card readed that can be plugged into a USB port on your Mac. They are inexpensive.  What type of card does the digital frame take.  I got a card reader from Walmart for around $10 for SD cards which my digital frame takes which is similar to this one: Sunpak SD-CR-BU Secure Digital Card Reader.

  • Has anyone had a problem with syncing photos from Aperture to iPad?

    It appears that many sub-level photos are not syncing.

    No, can't say I have.
    Could very well well be an image format issue, or a corrupted file. What platform is the source from (iOS, Android?). And what does "not being able to open" mean exactly?
    You might also try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

  • HT201302 how to copy a folder of photos  from imac to ipad

    I have a folder of photos on my imac and would like to put them on my ipad , can someone tell me how to do this? thanks

    There's no way to copy photos directly (e.g., via the Finder, if that's what you were hoping). Instead:
    1 - Import them into iPhoto (or Photos.app if you upgrade to 10.10.3).
    2 - Create a photo album containing all your pictures
    3 - Use iTunes to sync your iPad, after telling iPad which photo albums you want to sync

  • Syncing photos from Aperture, only first photo in one Event

    When I sync photos from Aperture to iPad I find all the photos in "Photo" but only the first photo under "Events". The same happens with iPod touch and Photos in iWeb.
    Where is the setting for getting all the photos in one particular event? The photos have been transferred to iPad but not to the Events with the exception of the first one. When I click on an Event in Aperture the particular Event opens with all the photos contained.

    Can someone help me with this?

  • When I make sincronization my photos from PC to IPhone using ITunes why I always get a duble copy of folders wit photos ??

    When I make sincronization my photos from PC to IPhone using ITunes why I always get a duble copy of folders wit photos ??

    That is correct.
    I just explained thatto you.
    Thre are NOT duplicates.
    ALL photos synced to iphone will be in the "Photo mediateka".  You can ALSO access those exact same photos from you named folder. If you had mulitiple photos, then all of the photos would be in the "Photo mediateka" and you could also access the exact same pics from each of the folders.
    You do not have duplicates.  it is working exactly as it should.

  • Cannot import photos from aperture

    Up until yesterday I've had no problems importing photos from Aperture (3.1.3) during the iPhone (4.3.5) sync process. Now iTunes (10.4.1) presents me with a dialogue window containing the following message: "The iPhone "xxx" cannot be synced. The required file cannot be found." The photo files are there in Aperture. If I uncheck all of the detail boxes, but leave the "Sync Photos from Aperture" box checked the sync process completes successfully, but no photos were copied to the iPhone because none were selected. I've rebooted the iMac, etc. And, of course, if I leave the "Sync Photos from Aperture" box unchecked the sync process completes successfully.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    George

    I thought my core issue was that my single library has this iPhoto icon associated with it.  I'd prefer it to be considered as an Aperture library.
    Are you looking at the correct libary in the Finder? That icon is puzzling.
    What are the versions of iPhoto and Aperture that you are using?
    If you have upgraded your photolibrary by the latest versions of Aperture (Aperture 3.4.5) and iPhoto (iPhoto 9.4.3) the icon should be the same for both iPhoto libraries and Aperzure libraries. If you are not yet using the latest version, consider to upgrade, because you are missing out on some bug fixes.
    The "Kind" displayed in the Finder will depend on the filename extension. A library created by iPhoto should have the extension "photolibrary" and the Aperture libraries "aplibrary".
    Check also the settings in Image Capture:
    In Image Capture you can set the application to open for each device individually. It might be possible, that you have set a diffrent application to open in Image Capture: I have set all my devices to "No Application" in "Image Capture". This way I can decide, if I want to open iTunes or Aperture, when I connect my iPad or iPod.
    If you are really troubled by the "Kind = Photo Library" you can convert that by importing the iPhoto Library into a new, empty Aperture Library. Then Aperture will set up the internal database files with the "Kind = Aperture Library".

  • How do I transfer photos from aperture and iPhoto to bridge?

    How do I transfer photos from Aperture and iPhoto to Adobe Bridge.  I am using Photoshop CS6.  Many of my original photos were stored as raw files.

    Here's how to access Mac iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    and so that they may be viewed by choosing that folder in Bridge..
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library.  
    2. Control-click (Right-click) the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto.
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click (Right-click) the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate.
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop or view them in Bridge.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired. 
    And here is a Forum thread related to Aperture-to-Bridge
    How do I transfer Apple Aperture library to Bridge?

  • While copying photos from pc to ipad only one folder gets copied, while copying photos from pc to ipad only one folder gets copied

    while copying photos from pc to ipad only one folder gets copied and while trying for other folders, the previous one which copied earlier does not appear.

    Are you selecting all of the folders to sync?
    Note that if you deselect a folder it will be removed.

  • After upgrade to IOS8 can't import photos from Aperture

    I upgraded to IOS8, reset my iPad to factory settings and reinstalled all my apps from scratch.
    When go into iTunes and I select to import photos from Aperture on my Mac it hangs.
    I have an old iPhoto library on my Mac and if I select photos from that it works.
    I have switched off everything to do with iCloud after seeing some posts that this might be causing the problem, but not a solution for me.
    (I have over 28,000 photos in my Aperture library).

    Did you turn on iCloud Photo Library? I suspect it may remove the ability to sync photos and videos between Macs and iOS devices.

  • When importing photos from aperture photos are blurry

    I have been making a video and up to now no problems. Then today i was working on it and when i started adding some more photos from aperture they were fuzzy and blurry.
    In aperture they are crisp and clear but the minute i put them in imovie they are blurry and not useable.
    I have imported photos from aperture and iphoto both and had no issues so not sure what is going on today.

    I think I just figured this out.
    Go into Aperture preferences and go to "previews" tab.  Set "photo preview" to "don't limit" and turn the quality all the way up.  Then select all your photos, go to the "photos" menu, hold down the option key and click "generate previews".
    It appears that the library sharing is just using the generated previews from Aperture which default to poor quality.  You need to turn up the quality and then force a re-render of all your previews.  iMovie should pick this up (but won't update your slideshow...).
    Yeah, I'm pretty disappointed by those defaults.   Wasted hours of my time as I rebuilt the slideshow with better versions of my photos.
    Hope that helped.

  • Sync photos from Aperture

    I would like to sync some photos/albums with my iPhone using Aperture. I went through the following steps:
    1. Imported images from iPhone to a project in Aperture
    2. Created an empty album in Aperture
    3. Dragged and dropped images from the project (from import) to the album
    4. In iTunes I went to the "Photos" tab of my connected iPhone
    5. Selected Sync Photos from Aperture
    6. Clicked on the "Selected Albums" radio button
    7. A bunch of albums/smart albums/projects are listed in the window, including the album I created in step 2 above
    8. I select the album (from step 2 above) but it says there are 0 images in it. When I look in Aperture the images are definitely showing in the album
    How do I get iTunes to recognize that the album I create has images, and thus move the album over to the iPhone?

    I believe I have it figured out. In the Aperture preferences, under the "Previews" tab, is a checkbox labeled "New projects automatically generate preview." This needs to be checked in order to sync images from Aperture albums to your iPhone.
    Otherwise, if that box wasn't checked when you created a new project, when you create an album in Aperture and put images in it, iTunes won't recognize that there are images in there.
    Note that if you are importing a lot of photos into Aperture, make sure you give Aperture time to generate previews for all of the images before you go back to iTunes to view that album for syncing. All of the previews have to be generated before iTunes will recognize that the album/project has any images.

  • Sync photos from Aperture to iPhone 4 problems

    I have a couple of smart albums set up in Aperture, when i select them to be sync's with the iPhone, the photos are sync'd in some totally random order it very difficult to locate specific pictures.
    Any ideas in how to sort out the sync order please?
    Thanks
    John

    For some stupid reason, pictures from Aperture synced to an iPhone/iPod Touch are ordered by file name instead of date on the mobile device.
    If you sort the pictures manually rather than by date within Aperture, it will be ordered correctly in your Album or Event on the iPhone. Either switch it in the pulldown menu or drag a thumbnail to a new place and then back to it's original location and it will change the ordering to manual.
    Makes you want to hit your head against a wall sometimes...

  • Changing Sync photos from: Aperture to iPhoto on iTunes

    I marked my previous question as solved by mistake.
    I still have a problem in iTunes to sync my photos to my iPhone 6. It shows only available "Copy photos from: Aperture".
    I would like to switch this back iPhoto and cannot find the way.
    Thank you.

    Well, that was an interesting idea, Colin, but it didn't work. I opened iTunes, and then dragged the Aperture repository into it. It seemed to acknowledge it (when I dragged it onto iTunes, the "dragging" icon wasn't x'ed out), but it didn't add anything to the library.
    If you try to do an "Add to Library" from iTunes, and then navigate to the Aperture repository, the repository folder is grayed out. It can't be selected. Same for a backup Vault created from Aperture.
    Thanks for the suggestion, though. It's always worth experimenting. (Assuming everything is backed up. )
