Exporting to destinations created after Aperture opened?

If I want to export from Aperture to a folder or drive, I am noticing that if I create the folder or connect the drive after opening Aperture, it refuses to see it as a possible destination for the export. Closing and reopening Aperture several times and waiting half an hour seems to solve the problem. Another wonky little problem.

I am at this moment exporting projects shot in the field and loaded onto my intel laptop (Santa Rosa) to a folder on the desktop of my new Mac Pro. Once this is done, I will import them into Aperture on the desktop machine from the folder. So, this is the weird thing: I activate the airport connection between the two machines, the laptop clearly sees the destination folder on the desktop...no problem. So I go into Aperture (on the laptop) to export a project into that folder. The project to be exported is highlighted. I go into File/export, but the option to export the project is grayed out. So I have to click on a different project, then click back to the one I want, and the option to export the project is now active...kind of weird right there; it happens very often. So since the laptop sees the desktop destination folder, I should be able to direct Aperture (on the laptop) to send the project there, right? But no, it shows me the public drop box on the desktop machine as the only possible destination on that computer. So to fix this problem I have to quit Aperture, restart the laptop, reestablish the wireless connection with the Mac Pro, enter the password, etc., restart Aperture on the laptop, and now Aperture sees the destination folder and exports the project to it with no further problems. So ultimately I get where I need to go, but only with considerably more hassle than should be necessary. It seems that the ultimate destination for an export, whether to another computer or an external, needs to be set up before you open Aperture. If you set it up after Aperture is open, it has a hard time seeing it, or refreshing its data set of possible export destinations.

  • How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs?

    (Fifth futile attempt in two hours, before I learned there was a Post webpage – I’m new to ApSuppCom - and after I learned that I am not allowed to update previous content, so I had to back out, make a few changes, and start over.)  How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?  (Some other specs: Mac OS Lion 10.7.5; Capacity 499.5 GB;  Processor 2.8 GHz Intel Core  2 Duo; Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3; Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256MB)
    I cannot do a copy (export) without various error messages appearing and the inevitable stoppage occurring.  Always with the DVD Video Player final message reading, “Supported disc not available.” Advisors and Mac Geniuses at local Apple Stores have told me to try Roxio Toast.  When I visited the Roxio website, and found numerous other company products, the descriptions all seemed to suggest that most of the apps shown can easily export videos to DVDs, but nothing was said about finished digital slide shows being exported.  At future events soon,  I hope to be handing out these finished DVDs (free) to the people in them.   Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    How can I export slideshows created in Aperture v3.3.2 (complete with superimposed captions and music tracks) from Mid-2009 MacBook Pro-17 to blank DVDs ?
    Aperture cannot burn slideshows to a DVD.  It only can export a video of your slideshow.
    In Aperture 3 you use the "Export" button in Aperture's slideshow project to render a video to a folder on your disk.
    Then you use iDVD or another program to burn a video DVD.

    Could you please describe the exact steps that are causing these error messages?
    How are you exporting your slideshow from Aperture? Which settings are you using? And how are you importing the video to iDVD or Toast to burn a video DVD?

  • Can I open a photo book created in Aperture 3 in iPhoto?

    HI
    I have created a photo book using Aperture 3 of a recent overseas tour. I want to send it to all the tour group so that they can print or buy their own copy.
    Not everyone has Aperture but all will have iPhoto...
    I have saved the book as a separate Library but when I open this library in iPhoto I cannot find the book - all the photos etc are there but not the book.
    Solution???

  • Creating new row right after popup opens (JBO-35007 because of  trigger)

    Hi,
    I have the same popup (with an ADF form) to add and to edit data. But i have two buttons which displays this popup - Add new and Edit, Edit works OK, on add, i insert new record like this:
            DCIteratorBinding dciter =
                (DCIteratorBinding)bindingContainer.get(iterator);
            ViewObject view = dciter.getViewObject();
            Row newRow = view.createRow();
            view.insertRow(newRow);
            view.setCurrentRow(newRow);before popup is open. And it adds a new record. But the record has id -10 (or some other negative number). This -10 is shown on calling page (the page from which the popup is open) in ADF ReadOnly table as -10 as id and other cells in row empty. That shouldn't happen (se bellow why). User then edits empty form in popup, and commits - then i get JBO-35007 because -10 changed to 123 - because of trigger.
    I tried to requery - it doesn't help, see Refresh after pop-up window closes.
    Can you suggest a solution on how to create a row right after popup opens?
    Also,
    i create new record on button's LaunchListener method. This method seems to execute before popup is open and so it affects the calling page also. I think the problem would be solved if new row would be created after popup is opened, not while opening it. (clicking create in popup works fine)

    in my real case, i usually don't show ids; but to simplify debugging, i created test project where i show as many things as possible.
    you mean, creating new record like following?
            bindings.getOperationBinding("Create").execute();I don't use that because i don't get empty fields in popup window (although new record is created). Actually, i don't know how to set this created record to be selected one. Suggestions?
    And I did some more testing, if I create new record with clicking on Create (not creating new row automatically), i get JBO-35007 only if there was selected any other than the first row in table.
    and i tried to move create method binding in pagedef, so it's the first one.. But it seems like there is no effect.
    btw, i found this in one of examples on web:
       <invokeAction Binds="Execute"
                      id="refreshTableViewObjectAfterAddingNewApp"
                      Refresh="prepareModel"
                      RefreshCondition="#{processScope.addedNewApp}" />refresh condition must be true when adding new row and false for everything else. I'm not sure what that does, but it seems to work... :)
    I really shouldn't use the same View Objects in popup and 'master' page, should I?

  • Can I export the pages of a book created in Aperture

    I would lioke to export the pages of a book created in Aperture so I can import them to get the book published. Is it possible to export hte pages as jpg images? When I save it as a pdf, the whole book is one file.

    What is your Aperture version? In my version (Aperture 3.4.3) I can do the following:
    Print the book to pdf, by selecting the book in the Inspector panel and using
         File > Print Book
    In the "Print" panel I press the "pdf" button and select "Save PDF as folder to jpeg".
    This will create a folder of jpegs, one for each page.

  • HT5349 After reset I keep getting prompted to create or join Open Directory.

    I followed this procedure and after step 5 I get the option to create a new Open Directory domain.  I already have a master on this server, but I can't get beyond this dialog box to configure the Profile Manager.  If I click through to create a new Open Directory Master the process dies saying a master already exists.  Can I get around this via the command line?

    I thought I would report back with what I did to get Profile Manager back to a working state for me.  Since I couldn’t get past the dialog box that kept asking me to either create an OD master or join an OD I decided to delete OD altogether.  I did this twice with differing results in the outcome of the Profile Manger service configuration.  The first time I recreated the OD I got Profile Manger to run, but the certificates were buggered and wouldn’t allow me to deliver a trusted profile to my MacBook Pro.  So, the second time I deleted OD I took things a step further. 
    Deleted the replica
    Deleted the master
    Waited for about 15 minutes for things to “cook”
    Rebooted both servers
    Opened Keychain Access and deleted the self-signed machine certificates on the replica
    Opened Keychain Access and deleted the self-signed machine certificates on the master and deleted the OD certificate as well (when you delete the OD it doesn’t go back and delete everything and you will pick-up configuration settings stashed in files, certificates, etc., when you run the wizard again)
    Installed the OD master (see http://krypted.com/iphone/configuring-using-profile-manager-2-in-os-x-mountain-l ion-server/  Apple, please take notes on how document your server products)
    Setup Profile Manager and applied the newly generated self-signed Code Signing certificate (this won’t be created correctly unless the OD certificate is generated correctly when you re-install OD.  That’s why I deleted the OD certificate in step 6)
    Installed my replica
    Downloaded a trusted profile on the MacBook Pro
    So, to sum things up I follow the procedure http://krypted.com/iphone/configuring-using-profile-manager-2-in-os-x-mountain-l ion-server/ after steps 1 through 6.  Your mileage may vary, but this worked for me.  I should add that I am connected to a Microsoft AD as well to provide authentication for Mac users.  I think the Profile Manager is going to be a good tool for me, but it seems a little fragile and the documentation by Apple is limited (the richest company in the history of the world should be able to document their products better and have them available when the product is released – steps off of soapbox).

  • Can't find IPTC metadata after Aperture export into Lightroom

    Hi all, 
    I'm sure you've already worked through this pain, so maybe you'll have some insight for me:
    I am exporting approximately 25,000 images from Aperture 2.1.4 and importing them into Lightroom 4.  I started working with my small projects of about 300 images to test.  From Aperture, I exported the Master files with the Sidecar (IPTC4.XMP) files.  [My masters are a mix of .jpgs and .NEF, and I read that the jpgs don't always carry the meta data through].  I successfully imported the master files into Lightroom and ran the "Read Metadata from File" command.  I also exported the keywords file from Aperture and imported those into Lightroom as well. 
    Prior to exporting, I edited one file in Aperture by entering "test caption", "test location", "test keyword", "test copyright" etc. into several of the IPTC fields.  These fields are NOT appearing in the equivalent Lightroom fields.  I checked the .XMP file (using text edit) and it does contain the correct "test values".  I am getting all of the EXIF metadata, but none of my custom values.
    Is it as simple as not looking in the right place in Lightroom for my values?

    John, and Brent -
    Yes, thank you, you were both right.  Here is an updated screenshot showing the image in both applications, with the metadata where I expected it.  The trick, in my case, was to follow "Method 1" in the link above, to write the IPTC data into the .jpgs.  I'll use the sidecar method for the .NEFs, probably.  Also, expanding the fields proved that the keyword was present.  I'm sure I can mess around with the Display Metadata options from Default to other things.  All well; heroes to the rescue!

    Grace

  • None of my apple apps can export files, including Mail, iPhoto, Aperture and Preview.

    None of my apple apps can export files, including Mail, iPhoto, Aperture and Preview. When I try to export a file from any of these programs, the app hangs for a few seconds and then does nothing, not even open an export dialogue. Same thing happens when I try to attach a file to an email. Also, maybe related and maybe not, Photoshop will crash after the splash screen. All of these app function properly when using a different User Account.
    I've tried deleting my application preferences in my user library and when that didn't work, I deleted my account and then created a new one that used the same user directory, which still didn't fix anything.
    I don't really want to make a new user from scratch and have to re-enter license numbers, re-calibrate monitors, recover bookmarks, contancts, etc. etc. if I don't have to, so I would be grateful for any advice.

  • Problem with photo book created in Aperture 3

    Hi everyone,
    I am in a bit of a bind and would greatly appreciate any help ASAP!
    I ordered a hard-cover photo book that was created in Aperture 3.  When previewing the order, we noticed that the photo for the cover of the book was missing (though it appeared on the dust jacket).  Tried various things to fix this but then read something in the forums that the photo would not be printed on hard-cover books, only on the dust jacket.  So we went ahead and placed our order...
    Today (3 business days after the order was made) we received an email from Apple:
    "Dear Apple customer,
    When your order W313537357 was submitted to Apple, an error caused an image file for your print product to contain an empty frame on the cover. As a result, Apple is unable to process your order and you will not be charged.
    If you would like to resubmit your order, we recommend these steps:
    1. Use Software Update to install the latest version of Aperture or iPhoto and Mac OS X. For more details on using Software Update, refer to: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1338
    2. Close all open applications
    3. Open iPhoto or Aperture and preview your order. For instructions on how to preview your order, refer to: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
    4. If you are satisfied with the Preview, return to iPhoto and click “Buy.” For Aperture users, return and click “Continue”
    We appreciate your business and apologize for any inconvenience."
    We have tried all of this, and the preview remains the same (no photo on the cover).  Also, when clicking the "Buy Book" button we get an error message that says "Empty text field detected in book.  The book you are about to order contains an empty text field.  How do you wish to proceed?"  This gives the option to either cancel or continue, and since I have not been able to find it I always just hit continue.
    I have tried contacting apple support but I guess their technical support for Aperture is only available during regular business hours.
    Help?!  We need this book printed and sent to us by the end of next week.  We would pay extra for rush/expedited shipping, but this option doesn't seem to be available (at least in Canada).
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Is there a breeze export option that defines the maximum opening resolution of the browser ?

    Hi,
    The maximum resolution of a breeze presentation slide is 720
    x 540 correct?
    Does anyone know if there is a way to prevent that a breeze
    presentation gets too big when it is opened in a big resolution
    screen?
    What I’m asking is if there is a breeze export option
    that defines the maximum opening resolution of the browser that
    contains the breeze presentation, preventing the images and flash
    animations to loose too much resolution…
    When I play my presentations from the breeze server, it
    doesn’t load in the web browser but in a window that not fit
    the entire computer screen, what is good to the definition of the
    presentation…It is possible to do this locally??
    (I may be wrong, but in the breeze server is it opening the
    swf file directly?)
    I sure can, after exporting, place the swf file of the
    presentation, manually, in an html file (instead of using the
    index.html that is created in the publishing) this way it will
    never get bigger when opening it in the browser, but if I do this
    it will affect the SCORM or anything else??
    What do you suggest?

    Set the Integer pref browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to 0 on the about:config page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.

    That will allow you to deselect the tab(s) that you do not want to reopen, but will allow to reopen other tabs.

  • OK, I need to be able to have a linked TOC, and also have destinations created in FM10 that will not be lost when I 1. Save the book as a PDF. then 2.  need the PDF to be as small as possible, but without losing my destinations. Anyone know how to do that

    OK, I need to be able to have a linked TOC, and also have destinations created in FM10 that will not be lost when I 1. Save the book as a PDF; then 2. I need the PDF to be as small as possible, but without losing my destinations. Anyone know how to do that??
    I had been saving as a PDF and then reducing the size of the PDF by printing it as a PDF with a degree of image compression. I write manuals with a LOT of screen captures and line art that needs to be clear. So it is a balancing act between image clarity and PDF size. The PDFs on the web need to be smaller - sure you can undertsand.
    Anyway, when I print the PDF again, I lose both my destinations and bookmarks.
    Anyone know of any way to avoid that?

    Control the images by creating a custom PDF Job Options and then selecting it in the PDF Job Options drop-down of the PDF setup dialog box (File > Save as PDF...)
    Create the custom PDF Job Options file with Distiller. If you do not have Distiller, open the Printing Preferences of the Adobe PDF printer. Start with the Smallest File Size Job Options settings and Edit.

  • Error message exporting large picture file from Aperture 3.5

    Recently I took a large panaramic comprised of 165 pictures using Gigapan Epic Pro and stitched together using software provided with Gigapan. I exported the stitched file into Aperture to perform final edits.  When I go to export the final version I keep getting an error message. The file size will be approximately 2.0 GB. I've been able to export a 0.7 GB file without problems (it did take several minutes). I have a late 2009 27" iMac with 3.3 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 16 GB memory. Any suggestions?  Not sure if this is an Aperture problem or if my system is not up to the task. Below is the error mesage I receive.  Thanks for your assistance.
