GPS data in Aperture not saved to files

Hi there
I have been using Aperture for a while and love it! Recently I purchased a DSLR and upon importing into Aperture, I manually added the locations to the files. Whenever I view the places feature for my library, I can see pins on the map so I know its been saved correctly.
When I imported the files, I ensured the import was "file system" and so hopefully Aperture doesnt save it into it's own library.
Unfortuantely, when I try and view the EVIF GPS data in Photoshop for these files, the GPS value is empty. If I manually export the file, the data is there, but somehow the files are smaller in file size (even though I chose JPEG Original Size).
Is there a way for me to make GPS changes in Aperture and for it to be automatically saved to the actual file instead of me going through the process of exporting it?
Thanks!

Aperture does write the GPS data only to the versions, when you are assigning a place, not to the EXIF tags of the original files.
So you will need to export the edited version to write the GPS to an image file.
If I manually export the file, the data is there, but somehow the files are smaller in file size (even though I chose JPEG Original Size).
"JPEG Original Size" refers to the pixel size, not the file size. You could try to increase the image quality settings in the "JPEG Original Size" export preset. Select this preset in the export panel and then switch to "Edit". This will allow you to increase the "image Quality" by adjusting the slider. Or select a "Tiff" preset, to export losslessly.
Another work-around would be to use exiftool to set the GPS tags on your originals, if you are experienced with the Terminal (see:                  Modifying EXIF tags of Originals Using exiftool: camera, lens, gps)
I usually do the geocoding before importing the image files to Aperture with Jetphoto Studio, but that is not a free application.

  • Aperture not saving photos

    Suddenly Aperture is not saving imported files.  I am importing them as I always do, and saving them into the "aperture library", but as soon as the application closes, the photos (and any associated albums) are gone.  This just started happening about 1 month ago, and was working fine up until then.  Ihave not upgraded to Snow Leopard yet, so its not associated with that. 

    Make sure you are not running out of storage space.
    Backup, trash your prefs, and repair your Library.

  • PSE not saving edited files to the organiser

    For no apparent reason my PSE 11 application seems to have developed an annoying glitch whereby part way through an editing process it stops doing as requested in the "Save" options, by not saving edited files as version sets of the original file in the Organiser. The files are saved OK to My Pictures and I then get advised that a file is available to import and I have to import each one, stack it with the original, and put the edited file on top. This is driving me nuts as I have about 1000 photos to edit. What is causing this problem? My only thoughts are that I have c.30000 picture files in the Organiser (but this hasn't caused any problems in adding new files)  and that the problem seems to have arisen since I started editing files directly from within an Album.

  • Visio 2010 - Shape Data Fields Are Not Saving

    I am having a problem with a number of shape data fields which are not saving data that has been entered into it, whether by entering it through the "shape data" or "define shape data" dialog boxes, or by editing the "shape
    sheet". 
    All data fields appear to save normally while file is open, it remains as entered.  However, when file is closed and later reopened select data fields do not retaining data correctly.  Some retain nothing (null), or revert back to a "default"
    value, see below for a couple examples:
    Rack Units:  Want to enter data as 1U, 2U, etc. ... in some cases it will save it as entered while in other cases it reverts to "1 RU", "2U", etc.
    Room:  Enter the data as I want it stored, most of the time it appears to come back empty, there are some shapes which will retain as entered.
    Comments:  Fails to retain any data
    I have looked at a number of reasons to explain why, whether the problems occur with stencils is supplied by Microsoft, a vendor, or were custom created.   Looked into whether it might have to do with a particular vendor's stencils/drawings
    but I have a number of Cisco drawings where some save those fields as entered while others do not.  I believe it could be a setting within the stencil preventing it from saving the data as entered, enabled in some cases and not in others.
    I have checked "Protection" under the "Developer" tab, but nothing appears to be set to prevent editing/storing data entered. 
    Is there some setting(s) or field(s) somewhere that I can look at to allow this data to be saved as entered?
    Is there a GLOBAL setting that can be set once within a file?
    Thank you in advance for your time to assist me in fixing these problems. Have a great day!

    >Can I build logic so that they can't fill in a field unless the previous field has been filled in?
    It's theoretically possible to do this (e.g. each field has an action
    of removing read-only on the next). It's considered extremely bad form
    design, because people don't always fill in fields in the order
    specified. If you watch people with a form they fill in their name,
    address, other easy stuff; then they go back for the harder stuff.
    They may want to save a form because one piece of information needs
    research.
    What you might like to consider is a large splash "FORM INCOMPLETE" in
    Red or whatever, which vanishes when all the fields are completed.

  • SQL Profiler running trace - where do the rows go if not saved to file

    When SQL Profiler trace is running, there are thousands of rows generated and shown in the trace window. Since I am only looking for deadlocks, I am not saving them. Are they just discarded, else where do all those rows go? I really don't want to fill
    up the log file.

    From your description, it seems you are running Profiler while saving events to a file.  All of the displayed events are also written to the file.  If you don't need events other than deadlocks, you should not include those in the trace to begin
    with.
    Be aware that a Profiler trace can significantly degrade server performance when many events are captured.  If you must capture a large number of events (or run a trace continuously), I suggest a server-side trace (or Extended Events file target)
    instead.  This will allow SQL Server to stream data directly to the trace file without the Profiler tool overhead.  You can script the Profiler trace for server-side tracing from the Profiler File-->Export menu.  Save and customize the
    script (file name, max file size, etc.).  You can view the trace file(s) using Profiler or fn_trace_gettable.

  • AE CC 2014 Export to C4D not saving any file

    I just got into CC (was using CS6) and today I wanted to export a C4D file from AE, like I have done always with AE CS6, but there seems to be a problem. I click on export, Maxon Cinema 4D Exporter, then select the folder and type the file name, click save and it closes like normal, but the file I supposedly saved, is not created anywhere. Anyone has the same issue?

    Apparently the problem is with the folder I was saving the file. I saved it to another hard drive and it saves the file just fine. Is there a limitation for a folder structure?
    Another issue is that the scene only includes the camera and not the solids or text layers. If I export from AE CS6 it includes all that.

  • Big problem: KN08 not saving KN06 files

    Hi everyone,
    I have a big problem with keynote 08 (4.0.1). Antefactum: last year our department finally migrated from powerpoint (mac, obviously) to keynote (3.0.2). So I opened all our powerpoint courses and conferences in keynote and saved them as keynote files, fixed all the little problems due to conversion and happily started to use only keynote. In december we updated to Leopard and KN 08, and here started the problem: if I create new files in KN 08 everything works perfect; I can create a new presentation, save it, update it with new material and save changes. Instead, if I open one of our KN 3.0.2 presentations in KN 08 he lets me do every modification but when I try to save it as KN 08 he tells me that it’s not possible. This is pretty frustrating, because I have something like 1 Tb of presentations and I don’t need to create new ones from zero, I need to update the existing ones with new material. Anyone knows why on earth KN 08 doesn’t let me do this? I mean, I can’t believe Apple programmers didn’t notice this problem, and I don’t want to think they thought this “function” would be fine either. If it’s a bug, anyone knows how it can be fixed?
    Neptune

    Hi Kyn Drake,
    first of all let me thank you for the answer I updated to KN 4.0.2 but the problem remains. The message I get is "impossible to save document "(filename)", or "impossible to save document "(filename)" as "(new filename)", in case I try to save it with the same name or with a different one. This happens also if I do not modify a presentation at all: that is to say, when I open one of my presentations in KN 08 the red button in the upper left corner of the window already has the dot inside, which means that the document "is not saved". If I just try to save without doing anything to the presentation it still presents the problem. It doesn't even allow me to export it as a powepoint, I tried and still it says it is impossible. I can't really understand why, and I can't think I'm the only one who has this problem ?!??

  • Files not saving properly; File write vi stops program every 10 minutes

    Trying to run current scan program; Data won't write automatically to file. I have to enter return at prompt to keep program running!

    How are you writing your files? Are you using the Write LVM Express VI or some of the file I/O vis? This information will help alot.
    You have to hit return if you have a dialog showing. You can create and write to files with any of the various functions without going through a dialog. Usually this is done by either placing the dialog in a case and only running it on the initial run of your loop, or by placing it outside of your loop so it runs only once before you start looping.
    If you are using the Write LVM Express VI, you can set it to only prompt once. Then it remembers the path on subsequent iterations.
    But, you need to give a little more information and maybe a sample VI to get a more specific answer.
    Hope that this helps,

  • Text is not saved in file...WHY ?

    Hi everyone,
    I made a simple text editor using Swing. It has only a JTextArea as the main text processor.
    I have added a File menu where I can open or save files with the JFileChooser class.
    The code I am using to save data from the JTextArea to a text file say abc.txt is as below :
    try
    File file = new File(fname);
    file.createNewFile();
    StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
    sb.append(textPad.getText());
    PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(file));
    pw.write(sb.toString());
    catch(IOException e) {}
    The file is being created with the specified name but no text is being saved in it even though there is valid text in the JTextArea textPad.
    Can anyone help me as to where the fault lies in the code ?
    Thanks alot.

    Hello guys,
    I have the same problem but I want to use println() instead of write(). Is it possible? And furthermore, if I have write operations in a loop, does the flush() operation have to be performed after every write() or once before close? I tried both things at the same time but yet, I can't see anything to be written to the file. I haven't tried yet the write() method but I think the println() method should work just fine...
    The writer I use is formed like this:
    PrintWriter coordinatesPrintWriter = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(coordinatesFile)));where coordinatesFile is a File.
    then in a loop I do
    try
    for(...)
    coordinatesPrintWriter.println("A string, ctra");
    coordinatesPrintWriter.flush();
    coordinatesPrintWriter.flush();
    coordinatesPrintWriter.close();
    catch(IOException ioe)
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( GraphManagerGUI.this, ioe.getMessage(), "IO ERROR", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
    }But nothing is outputted to the file, although created.
    Do I forget to do something? Should I close all wrapped writters? (although I don't really think this is the problem...)

  • Is there a way to read data off drive, not relying on file structure somehow?

    That might be the wrong question. But it kind of gets at what I'm after. I have a DVD disk which was written by my TV DVD machine. While it was recording onto the disk, it ran out of space. When this happens, when I put the disk into my computer, my computer show zero files on there. Whereas if it hadn't of run out of space, a folder and a few files inside would appear. How can I access what's on the disk in this state? Is there a way to get the data off and turn it into a file?; there is data on the disk but my computer is showing zero files. Thanks.

    Some, if not all DVD Recorders (i.e. SA 8300 and Cablevision) use a proprietary file system that matches the drive to the device, so not only can it not be read by a computer, it won't even work when read by another SA 8300 device.  (Found this out when my SA 83000 cable box crashed.  My recording on an external drive could not be read by the new SA 8300).
    If you want to backup the files to another drive, you may be able to do a block-by-block copy.

  • Xcode not saving source files

    Hi
    Has anyone else come across an issue where Xcode doesn't save source files before a build - despite setting the For Unsaved Files preference correctly?
    My Java students are using Xcode 3.1.1 to create and build Java Tool projects. We've noticed that we can't modify the default source file for a newly created project, nor can we modify any new source files we add to the project UNLESS we close down and restart Xcode after adding each new file. Specifically, any edits are stored in the file buffers but these are not automatically saved to the hard disc when we trigger a build. However, once Xcode is closed and restarted, all source files in the project behave normally.
    Interestingly, the problem doesn't seem to happen with Tool type projects in other languages, however, these projects by default put the source files in the top level of the project folder, whereas all Java projects put the source files one level down in a "src" sub-folder.
    Has anyone else noticed these issues with Java projects? Do similar problems occur in other languages if source files are stored in sub-folders? Remember, the problem only exists for newly created files and it's resolved once Xcode is shut down and restarted - unless, of course, we need to add more files.
    Anyone got any workarounds which avoid stopping and restarting Xcode?
    Bob
    PS: Please don't post comments saying that I should use Eclipse, Netbeans, BlueJ, etc That's not relevant to this discussion.

    Thanks briyu. At least you've confirmed that I'm not going mad
    As for 3.1.0, that's what the student machines are using and we have the problem there. I wonder why no one else has reported this before? Probably Xcode isn't used very much for Java.

  • With LR 3.4.1 my keywords are not saved to file

    Since upgrading to LR 3.4.1 my keywords are no longer saved to the files so I can not see them in an external application. If I revert back to LR 3.3 it works OK. Any ideas?
    I have the option set to automatically write changes into XMP.
    I tried to write metadata to files manually and that does not work either.
    The files are .jpg
    I'm using a Windows 7 32bit PC.
    Thanks...

    External drives often have special ACLs on them that can cause access problems for some apps. All it takes is for Lr to change how it accesses file and file metadata (even a change that made it more "correct" -- i.e., a bug fix for some other problem) and it can uncover ACL issues.
    I don't know what you would have to do on Windows to remedy this, but on a Mac, I would make sure that the drive is setup to be "shared" so it has additional special ACLs on it that allow ownership to be taken.
    But, you want to start at the root of the drive, and reset ALL the ACLs (NOT just the "permissions" which are older, simulated and incomplete settings, and making sure to recurse through the entire folder structures) such that the owner/creator and admins have full control. There may be other special ACLs required if you want to share this disk with different users on different machines. This part I am not familiar with, but it comes up often on Windows support sites. Look or people having similar problems with Windows remote disk services.
    Remember, if you have a login on two different Windows machines (assuming you do not have some sort of network-wide login) this is technically two different users (even if they have the same name).
