Does Aperture support deletion of multiple "unnamed" face tags?

Faces is a great feature.  I love it.
I have 40,000 pictures in iPhoto.  iPhoto currently does not have a way to select all "unnamed" face tags in a photo and remove them.  I have to click each separate "unnamed" face tag to delete it.  Because of the volume I am working with, without a global delete feature, I am looking at a 100-hour project (approximately 60,000 mouse clicks) to accomplish the deletion of all these "unnamed" face tags.
I was hoping that Aperture would offer this feature, since it is a Pro app.  I called Apple today and they told me that "No, Aperture does not have this feature, either."
Does anyone know if Aperture does have a way of doing this?  I tried to get an Apple Aperture support rep on the phone to think "outside the box" today on this, but he couldn't think of anything.
It just kills me that because I can't select multiple face tags in a photo and mass delete them with a single keystroke or click that I'm facing 100-200 hours worth of work, literally about 60,000 mouse clicks, in order to get rid of all my "unnamed" face tags.
Thanks for any ideas anyone might have.

Why is it worth 100 hours of your time to remove them?
(While I think_if_ there is a way to do what you want.)

  • Does Aperture support the use of Filters or Brushes?

    I want to be able to have more control over the final print versions of my photos using Aperture (instead of having to spend hundreds on the latest Photoshop)... Does Aperture support any type of filtering or brushwork? Any freeware out there that dovetails with Aperture?

    I poked around inside Aperture a while ago and there are some icons and other images that suggest it is coming one day. My guess is that there is insufficient hardware or OS support for it right now and so it ha not been enabled.
    And if you look in the .plist file you'll see preferences for "brushes" labeled Dodge, Burn, Saturate, Desaturate, Warmer and Cooler. Brushes also appear to have Size, Softness and Strength attributes - does this indicate future drawing pad support??!!

  • Does Aperture support DNG custom profiles (.dcp) ?

    Hi, how can I do batch correct raw images ? Does Aperture support custom DNG profiles (.dcp) from
    X-Rite Colore Checker Passport or Adobe DNG Profile Editor ?
    Or instead can I assign color correction icc camera profile (input ? device ?)
    For example, I have already prepared jpg image with desired colors ang raw image, I want match colors raw to jpg image. I'm not interested in presets, I prefer and I can do it via profiling in other raw converters. But it will be Aperture usable for me ?
    Many thanks for answer

    I don´t have the camera nor Lightroom, so just for what it´s worth, this requirement stated for DNG files:
    +DNG files must be generated by the Adobe DNG Converter with the “Convert to Linear Image” option turned off.+
    Not sure if that helps you. I´m trying something alike from PSe7 on a Windows Vista laptop for the Panasonic LX3, without luck so far... ;(

  • HT4007 Does Aperture support Images and videos from the new 3D cameras?

    Does Aperture support Images and videos from the new 3D cameras?

    If the camera is listed here OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats or here Mac OS X v10.6: Supported digital camera RAW formats then the raw image file is supported by Aperture.
    If the camera is not listed then as Keith wrote if it produces JPG's they can be imported into Aperture.
    If you told us what camera you were interested in it might help.

  • Does Aperture support RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera?

    Please can anyone let me know whether Aperture supports RAW files from a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-FZ27 camera? The Apple Aperture site lists support for DMC-F35 and other later cameras but does not allow a search for others.
    Many thanks.
    John

    Only the cameras on this list are supported:  Apple - Aperture - Technical Specifications - RAW Support
    Th FZ27 is not.
    For my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28 I am using Adobe's free DNG Coverter to convert the RAW files to DNG. It does not always work, but for most of the RW2 files I can work in Aperture this way. The stubborn files I convert to TIFF.

  • Does WLI support Transaction on multiple pools ?

    hI,
    I use WLI 2.0 SP 2.
    I am working with JDBC POOL (My Pool) that is different from the WLI Pool.
    I run a WLI flow that use some business operations that use 'My Pool'.
    When an exception occure and the trnsaction is rolled back the records that

    problems.

  • Does Aperture support making Panoramic Stitches?

    One of the most fun I have had on a digital machine is making Panorama Images. Does Aperture have an automatic stitch engine to put together images to make a 180 or 360 view called a Panoramic Image?

    Hi
    It will come eventually I guess, there are some great plug-in's for Aperture, which can be used from within Aperture. When you wish to use a plug-in you simply right click the image or images you wish to use with say, Photoshop or, Noise Ninja, then click >"edit with"..... and select your plug-in.
    This works well.....
    Remembering ( in Aperture's defence ) that Aperture is a powerful image management system, with some excellent editing capabilities.
    Have a look.... www.apple.com/aperture/resources/plugins.html

  • Does Aperture support RAW 3F (*.fff) file format?

    I am scanning all of my film with a Hasselblad FlexTight F1 scanner. I saved the files in their RAW format called 3F (*.fff). I am completely schocked that Aperture doesn't recognize the file format. After all, isn't Apple selling Aperture as "Professional Applications"? Hmm, what is more professional than scanning film with a $15,000 FlextTight scanner?
    What are they thinking, or what am I missing? I just don't get it.

    Well, if you look closely at the technical specifications (http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs/raw.html), you'll see that Aperture is meant for digital images taken with a digital camera and not for scans, sorry.
    Wide Support for RAW Formats from Leading Cameras
    Aperture 3 supports the RAW formats from more than 150 digital cameras and camera backs. Aperture also lets you work with most DNG files.1 Shoot JPEG? Using Aperture, you can import JPEG images from virtually all digital cameras.
    As a work-around, try another lossless format for your scans. Are your scans very large? Then you may possibly run into another problem because of the file size. I am having frequently problems with Aperture being unresponsive, if the image file size of my scans is close to 1 GB.

  • Does aperture support Olympus ep-5

    I am going to buy a Olympus ep-5.
    Can i use aperture of Apple with raw files, or have i to buy Adobe lightroom?
    Can anyone help me out whit this?
    Thanks for doing so.

    You are in the iMovie discussions. You may get better results in the Aperture discussions. I will ask a host to move this post over there so the Aperture experts will see it.
    I think the answer to your question is yes, but let the experts weigh in. One of them may even have your camera.

  • Does Aperture support NEF RAW files for the Nikon D810?

    I am unable to open NEF RAW files for my new Nikon D810.  Are there any updates of suggestions.

    Apple has not yet reverse-engineered a RAW update for the d810. I would suggest that you shoot RAW +JPEG with all your NEF images on the CF card and put your JPEG optimal fine images on the SD card in slot 2. Save your NEF images and CF cards until the Aperture 3.5.1 RAW update for the d810 finally is available. In the meantime, you will have JPEG optimal images on your SD cards that you can import and process in Aperture. Good Luck.

  • Does Cisco7200VXR support feature Q-in-Q VLAN tag termination?

    There is only 10000ESR platform support announced in feature guide and no information in Feature Navigator tool...

    Hi there,
    Well.. it seems this feature has several names:
    "Cisco IOS Software Releases 12.3 T - IEEE 802.1Q-in-Q VLAN Tag Termination"
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/iosswrel/ps5207/products_feature_guide09186a00801f0f4a.html

    But I can't find any reference to the 7200 having support for it... though many others has it.. mainly switches.. not too surprising.. :)
    Did it help?

  • 3.1 Smart folders does not show unnamed faces

    I have this problem since at least 3.0.2 (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2379806&tstart=0). The 3.1 update doesn't seem to correct it.
    Does anyone have a way to group photos with unnamed faces in an album ?
    Fred.

    Sadly this is not the answer to my problem.
    But it does work with a brand new library (as I said here : http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11459206#11459206), so it is probably not a problem with all libraries. Maybe only with a library created with Aperture 3.0.0 ?
    Nonetheless, as I'm not the only one having this problem it should be reproducible and corrected... I imagine that an Aperture developper would take a look at my library's database and find the problem and its answer in an hour.
