Does aperture vault update just add new photos and information?

I am wondering if the Vault function when updated will just add the new photo(s) and new adjustments or replace the entire vault. I have already copied the entire library as a back-up on a different external. Was planning on just manually updating the files but wanted to try out the Vault. The information is unclear that it only updates NEW photos and info while keeping the vault and just adding.... Any answers would be great. Thanks...

Seattle,
I think I understand your question, but I got a little fuzzy after reading this:
The information is unclear that it only updates NEW photos and info while keeping the vault and just adding....
Anyway, when you perform the "Update Vault" function, Aperture does replace the vault.  It updates the vault such that it reflects changes to your library since the last time that vault was updated.  With a large library, but only a few changes, the vault update is pretty quick.

  • I just upgraded to Photos and now I can't open my iPhoto Library in Photos OR iPhoto. How do I get my photos back?!?

    I recently updated to the new Photos and when I went to import my library into Photos, it wouldn't let me.  Kept throwing errors.  I followed the suggested fixes using the terminal regarding permissions, but that didn't work.  I decided to just go back to using iPhoto, but when I opened that it wouldn't see my library either.  I tried copying it to an external hard drive and opening that, but it didn't work.  I can browse for it and see it on my computer but it's grayed out and I'm unable to select it.  Please help.  I'm terrified I lost all those photos.

    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 Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    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.

  • I have just bought new ipad and have icloud but my photos haven't transferred across to my iphone 4, not even one I took yesterday on the ipad.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have just bought new ipad and have icloud but my photos haven't transferred across to my iphone 4, not even one I took yesterday on the ipad.  What am I doing wrong?

    What do you mean by copy?  I thought the i cloud did that automatically for you.  That's what I don't understand.

  • In LR 4.4, can no longer add new photos/video

    Windows Vista, Service Pack 2.  4 GB RAM.
    I've had LR 4 for more than 2 years.  Worked just fine.  Have not used for past year, as I have been traveling.  Now, I cannot add new photos or video to my catalog.  I have tried using my usual method of "Optimize Folder."  Always freezes at 70%.  Also tried via "Import into folder."  Hit the same 70% wall.  I sometimes get an "out of memory" error message, but not always.
    Steps I've taken.
    a.  Reboot computer.  (Obviously).
    b.  Ensure that LR is only program running.
    c.  Moved a ton of data from hard drive to an external hard drive (since error message did not specify what type of memory I was out of, I wanted to make sure I eliminated "not enough hard drive space" as an possible problem.  I have more than 1 Terra-byte of available memory/space right now.
    d.  Uninstalled entire program, downloaded most recent version, and reinstalled it.
    What should I do?  Not sure what else to try.

    To clarify, it turns out that base.keychain does not need any repairing. It merely needs to reside in a writeable directory.
    As for moving this keychain to ~/Library/Keychains, I don't doubt that the suggestion is appropriate in general, and that's certainly where my login keychain resides. But I use base.keychain for a variety of sensitive passwords which I cannot afford to lose, some of which have nothing to do with my computer. (Yes, I know this is what backups are for.) I had also contemplated FileVault'ing my home directory at one point, so I wanted to be sure I kept critical passwords accessible no matter what went wrong.
    Perhaps / is a bad choice. Perhaps /Library/Keychains would have been better. Where would you put a keychain that didn't really belong under /Users?

  • How do I add new photos to my external back up without duplicating the entire library?

    My iPhoto libraries are a complete mess. I can't be the only person who:
    a) wants a number of libraries for different types of image (digital art, holiday snaps, etc)
    b) wants to keep the bulk of his library on an external drive, to free up space on my main hard drive.
    One problem is that iPhoto does not show things clearly. It does not say:
    a) which hard drive the currently displayed iPhoto library is in
    b) which iPhoto library is currently open (at the top it just says iPhoto instead of giving a directory).
    Another problem is that when I import photos from my iPhone or camera, they automatically go into the iPhoto libaray on my main hard drive; I don't seem to be asked: "To which iPhoto library do you want to import these photos?"
    On top of that, whilst in some cases a pop-up asks if you really do want to add a duplicate image to a certain location, I haven't found a simple way when doing back ups to ONLY ADD NEW IMAGES to an existing library ('Apply to all' etc.)
    As a result, I have loads of duplicates in different libraries, with crazy titles like: "Mostly family photos up to Sept 2010" or "Digital images to June 2012, many duplicates."
    A friend recommended iPhoto Library Manager but I don't find that well laid out and haven't used it.
    As I've also had difficulty upgrading my iPhoto libraries, I've started saving my photos in a regular folder (not iPhoto), with View set to large icons. I find that easier to organise.
    So....Can anyone advise on a simple clear way of organising my photos and adding new ones in to the appropriate folder?
    Many thanks,
    Eatmorenuts

    One problem is that iPhoto does not show things clearly. It does not say:
    a) which hard drive the currently displayed iPhoto library is in
    b) which iPhoto library is currently open (at the top it just says iPhoto instead of giving a directory).
    Correct - it always uses the last selected library - If you use iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  to manage your libraries you do have a display showing whaih=ch library you are using
    And with iPhoto '11 you can switch libraries from the file menu
    You can always suggest a new feature to Apple - iPhoto manu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
    Another problem is that when I import photos from my iPhone or camera, they automatically go into the iPhoto libaray on my main hard drive; I don't seem to be asked: "To which iPhoto library do you want to import these photos?"
    Incorrect - when you import photo to iPhoto they always go to the currently selected library which could be any library in any valid location
    On top of that, whilst in some cases a pop-up asks if you really do want to add a duplicate image to a certain location, I haven't found a simple way when doing back ups to ONLY ADD NEW IMAGES to an existing library ('Apply to all' etc.)
    Not sure what you are saying - did you see the "apply to all" check box?
    As a result, I have loads of duplicates in different libraries, with crazy titles like: "Mostly family photos up to Sept 2010" or "Digital images to June 2012, many duplicates."
    Correct IF you do not have a good plan for managing multiple libraries and IF you do not folow it - iPhoto is a basic program designed for the mass market and knows only about the current library - it has no idea about any otehr libraries - it is far better to have only one library - but if you choose to have multiple libraries tehn you must ahve a good plan for managing them and yo must follow yoru plan - if you do not then it will not work wisince what you doing is not a feature of iPhoto
    A friend recommended iPhoto Library Manager but I don't find that well laid out and haven't used it.
    Well your friend made a good suggestion and it is a great product for manageing multiple libraries - but if you do not like it then you should not use it
    As I've also had difficulty upgrading my iPhoto libraries, I've started saving my photos in a regular folder (not iPhoto), with View set to large icons. I find that easier to organise.
    Then the question arises "why are you using iPhoto at all?" It does not work like you want, you prefer using teh finder to organize your photos and you have created a mess by trying to use iPhoto in ways it was not designed to be used - your best choice is to not use iPhotoa and do it your self the way you prefer
    So....Can anyone advise on a simple clear way of organising my photos and adding new ones in to the appropriate folder?
    Yes - use one library and learn how to use iPhoto (BTW in iPhoto folders do not hold photos - they only hold albums and other folders) - the solution is to have one library with multiple backups and to organize using albums, folders, Keywords and folders in the single iphoto library
    Otherwise you need a different program and different workflow - what you have is not working and is almost impossible to make work - either use iPhoto the way it is designed or use a program that is designed like you want

  • How do you add new photos into an existing folder on iPhone 4S, without it jumbling the existing photos?

    My wife and I just got our iPhone 4S a couple weeks ago. We've experienced a problem that I hope someone might be able to help with. When she sync'd her photos originally, it had them in the folders she wanted. Now, if she wants to add new photos to one of the existing folders, will it jumble all the photos up or will it keep them in the same folder?

  • TS3989 I have automatic upload etc. turned on in my iCloud and Photostream but after having just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, none are getting into. My Photostream, either on my iPad, iPhones or Apple TV. Any suggestions?

    I have automatic upload etc.  activated in Photo Stream.  I just uploaded new photos from my camera to my MacBook Pro, but nothing is sowing up on my iPhones my iMacs iPad or on Apple TV.  Does anyone have. Any suggestions as to what I can. Do?  I am currently on permahold with. apple Help.
    THANKS!

    My eyes just glazed over...Please in the future break down each of your issues with paragraphs separated by two carriage returns. It would be much easier when trying to address your issues.
    Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Mouse
    And edit your mouse settings to do what you want it to do.
    Secondly, this is not the place to vent. If you have a complaint, there is:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    or http://www.apple.com/contact/
    We are just end users here helping other end users.
    Third, from my understanding, it would appear you are concerned about the noise the hard drive makes when it falls asleep? Why not put your machine in screen saver mode instead? Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Energy Saver turn off all Energy Saver settings, or set them to run Never.
    Fourth, if your machine was purchased just a few days ago, you may still be able to get an exchange from the store, quicker than you can get a repair done. You may want to look into that possibility.
    Fifth, it does appear you found the Logic forum. I would persist in asking there how to solve your technical issue with Logic regarding the audio. It may be you don't have to do anything special to the hard drive. Remember audio can be transmitted by wire, avoiding ambient sounds.
    Good luck!

  • Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?    Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud?

    I have 2 questions about the new Photos app for Mac (I'm running 10.10.3 on my MacBook Air 1.8GHz Intel Core i5 mid 2012)):
    1.Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?
    2. Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud?  That would free 59GB off my Mac and that would be very good.

    1.Should I delete my old iPhoto Library Current folder once everything is transferred to Photos Library Current?
    You can, but I would wait, until you have have been working with Photos for some time and are sure, that everything migrated well. There may be hidden flaws in your library and teething problems with Photos. Don't be in a hurry to abandon iPhoto completely. You may need to go back, until bugs have been fixed.  Th Photos Library does not duplicate the photos in your iPhoto Library. the media files are shared and do not need extra space: See:  Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    2. Does this mean that all my new photos on any device can come off my Mac and ONLY be in the Photos Library which is in the cloud?  That would free 59GB off my Mac and that would be very good.
    If you have enough iCloud storage.  But Photos will still need space for local thumbnails on all devices.
    See:  Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
    Fill your library, not your device.
    iCloud Photo Library can help you make the most of the space on your Mac. When you choose “Optimize Mac Storage,” all your full-resolution photos and videos are stored in iCloud in their original formats, with storage-saving versions kept on your Mac as space is needed. You can also optimize storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, so you can access more photos and videos than ever before. You get 5GB of free storage in iCloud — and as your library grows, you have the option to choose a plan for up to 1TB.

  • Why have all my previous "My Ratings" (stars) have been removed and Smart Albums(i.e. 5 star rating in past year) virtually destroyed in the update to the new Photos program?  Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ?

    Upon updating to the new Photos program, all the previous "My Ratings" (1-5 stars) for photos have been removed. Why?  My "Smart Albums" using the "My Ratings", i.e. photos with a 5 star rating within the past year, have been virtually destroyed in the update.  The updates "modified" Smart
    Album deleted the "My Ratings" parameter, retained the Date parameter so now Smart Album includes every photo within the date range parameter.  Where are the "My Ratings" capabilities ?  It appears they have been removed.  If so, why ?

    Photos doesn't have true star ratings.
    However, when photos are migrated from iPhoto or Aperture to Photos, they will have keywords assigned, like "1 star" or "5 stars". You can create smart albums based on these keywords.
    You can also assign keyboard shortcuts so if you're in the keyword pane and type 1, it will assign the "1 star" keyword.

  • HT201342 What happens when I purchase a new iPad? How Will my music, photos and information transfer? Does iCloud hold all of that, if so how do I access it?

    What happens when I purchase a new iPad? How Will my music, photos and information transfer? Does iCloud hold all of that, if so how do I access it?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    When you set up iCloud on a new device, you will get photos from Photo Stream (you will have to transfer them to the device), your contacts, calendars, notes, reminders and your iCloud mail address. All of this will be done automatically by iCloud when you log in iCloud on your device.
    To transfer your purchased music, see > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 Also, if you have the music on your computer, just connect the iPad to the computer and sync it with iTunes to get your apps, movies, music...
