EXIF information disappeared! Any ideas?

Almost all of the EXIF information disappeared from some (not all) of my 5 star images.  Only the camera, lens and exposure information vanished - it was all there at one time.  The fields now appear blank.
All of the images that this happened to have a weird profile name: "kCGColorSpaceGenericHDR".  I have no idea what this is from.
At the top of the inspector panel, it says "Unknown Canera" and "Unknown Lens".  Yet, it recogizes that the image was shot in RAW and shows the focus points
All non-5-star images have all the EXIF data remaining.I've rebuilt the library to no avail.  Any ideas?
The only change I've made recently is to add the complete NIK collection.  It was shortly after this that the problem appeared, but may be completely unrelated.
Any ideas?
Running Aperture 3.2.3, Lion 10.7.3
17" MacBook Pro
Thanks for any help and advice!

Hallo Charlie,
Try to rename your Master Image Files using "Metadata -> Batch Change".
If your version names are still o.k., you can copy the version names to the master image files by setting the "Apply to Master Files" option.
This renaming to "Spoonbill" might have happend during a batch change in the similar way, perhaps with a wrong filename preset.
OT: What does a"Roseate Spoonbill" look like? Ours all are white ...
Regards
Léonie

    everytime i try to download itunes it freezes on the p
    ublishing product information bit, any ideas?

    I went in to the itunes folder in "c:/program files/itunes' and launched it from there, I discovered it would launch itunes.exe without the configuration. So I just deleted all the itunes shortcuts from the start menu and desktop and recreated them from the itunes.exe in the program files folder.

    I have had elements 10 for a long time but recently the scroll bar for the fonts has disappeared. any ideas?

    First try resetting the tool by clicking the tiny arrow at the far left end of the options bar and choosing reset tool.
    But you should be able to use the arrow keys to navigate through the fonts, too.

  • Using stp 2.0.2, transporter disappeared -any ideas?

    using stp 2.0.2, transporter disappeared. No where to be found -any ideas?

    I've never seen this before. Make sure you delete all of the files they suggest here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3659
    I think these are the same for STP 2.
    Let us know if that helps or not.
    oh, if you still can't get it and need to record, see if you can record by arming your tracks and pressing Cmd + R. It might work even if the transport isn't displayed.

  • TS4083 All my email on the cloud has disappeared - any ideas.

    All my email seems to have disappeared. I'd previously moved from me to the cloud early july and all was ok. It was also working this morning - then all they disappeared. Any ideas?

    If you are using apple mail  or Outlook 2007/2010 and migrated your settings from an older OS, It might be the smtp settings. Try recrating the account in apple mail using your @me.com email address for the login ID. (recomended instructions are at http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ )
    If you are not using apple mail, outlook try using the following article http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    If you are now get new mail but your old mail has disapeared there is a known issue

  • HT4623 my volume control button on my music disappears - any ideas why?

    My volume control button on my music disappears and therefore so does my tone when I get message or calls.  Any ideas why?

    Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.
    Relaunch the App and try again.
    Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • The contents of my emails are disappearing, any ideas?

    I have an old MacBook Pro running 10.6.8 and I use the email that comes with the Snow Leopard. A few weeks ago I started getting the header for the incoming message but the contents would be blank. If I checked this same message on my iPhone it was all there. This week I had an email that I was previously able to read on my MacBook turn up empty when I clicked on it. Than there are other emails that I get that wont down load the graffics just the links, there is no rhyme or reason to which ones it chooses to do this to. Any ideas? I would appreciate any suggestions that anyone has.

    Try re-indexing the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • FrameMaker 9 upgrade offer -- Adobe sales lacks information. Any ideas?

    When I started up my Frame 9 copy, the splash screen displays a "Limited Period Offer" of 40% off to buy FM 12. Except the Adobe 12 web page, the direct sales rep I called, and the customer support rep I was transferred to have no information about this.
    Does anyone have any more information about upgrading FM 9, and how I might actually "save 40%" when upgrading?
    A screen shot of part of the FM splash screen with the upgrade offer is here:

    Besides being expired, I seem to recall that the offer was only for a
    discount on the subscription version of the program and not on the
    perpetual license version. The subscription version is bad because, if
    you stop paying the subscription fee, the software stops working.
    Upgrade pricing is only available from FM10 or FM11.
    I must say that I do not like Adobe's upgrade policies. A person who has
    already purchased FrameMaker 9 has already paid for 99% of the features
    in FM12. Why they should be forced to buy the new version of the program
    at full price just to get a few new features is ridiculously unfair.

  • My sequence seems to have disappeared, any idea how to find it?

    Had a fairly long sequence I was editing and in trying to undock another panel I managed to lose the sequence from view at the bottom of the screen.  All I now see are the tools icons.  Hoping its merely hidden, not lost :\  But can't seem to work out where I might find it.  Very new to this, thanks for your help

    I tried to reset workspace and it didn't retrieve it - though I fear my knowledge is too patchy to know really what I am doing here
    What's the Project Window?  is it the bottom panel, rhs ?
    Here's what I'm looking at
    Any recommendations for basics tutorials to get me a base level of understanding would be gratefully received too.  thanks again

  • HT4059 I used to be able to transfer PDFs from Dropbox to iBooks but now the file appears for about 1 second and then disappears - any ideas?

    Can anyone help? I want to transfer PDF files from Dropbox to iBooks but when I do, the file appears for about 1 second then disappears. I used to Beatle to do this with no problems, but now it doesn't work. Help!

    I had the same problem.  After numerous attemps to Restore from Itunes, I decided to use the "Setup as New Ipad" option. It went through a few question on new setups. Afterwards all my apps, data, photo's were still intact. Which shows that the Restore from Itunes worked. There must be a small bug that prevents the Ipad to open after "Restore from Itunes" .  Hope it will help you. 

  • Up graded to Aperture 3.4.3 from snow leopard one,  15000 photos disappeared any Ideas?

    can't tell if there still on mac because new finder is ********...

    Even if the "new finder is ********...", we need to know more, otherwise we can only guess; please explain:
    What Aperture version did you upgrade from? And how did you migrate from SL to Mt- Lion? DId you make a clean install or install MT. Lion on top of your sstem?
    Where is your Aperture library located; on the system drive? In the default location in your "Pictures" folder? Did you import your images into the Aperture library or reference them outside the library?
    And in what way have your images disappeared? Are they missing, when you open Aperture and browse the Aperture library? Do you see empty frames instead of the images? Black exclamation points or broken arrows? Or an apparently empty library?

    I found this article some time ago when I was trying to help someone else in this same situation. This is a copy and paste from the website. The website is provided below for you to read before you try this.
    Plug your phone into iTunes
    Click setup as a new device
    Immediately unplug your phone from the computer
    Give it about 30 seconds and iTunes will give a message (I don’t remember the specific, but regarding you unplugging the device and it not completing)
    Plug your phone back in
    Viola! no restore occurred and you can access everything again
    This computer has previously synced with an iPhone or another iOS device.
