How do I access photo files from Aperture Vault for Lightroom?

I am considering switching from Aperture to Lightroom on the Mac. Aperture uses Vaults to store its photo files. What is the proper procedure to access these files so that Lightroom can use them? If I switch, the files can be completely removed from the Vaults, but before I finalize the switch, I need to keep the files available to Aperture AND Lightroom (or at least, copies of the files available to Lightroom).

Jao's suggestion will work, though you have to dig through a couple of package files. The advantage of Relocate Masters is that you can set up a folder structure that reflects the old projects, if you want, or break everything out into a date format.
Rather than either way of trying to keep files in both systems, the better way to make a transition though is to use Export Masters because it can create sidecars which LR can read, so all your keywords and other metadata come across.

    How can I access video file from sd card on ipad2?

    Your iPad 2 will see the video if:
    It's in a DCIM folder on the top level of the card (which is how most cameras do it)
    It's name is 8 characters, no more, no less (CKDI9483 for example)
    It's a format that the iPad will play
    I've made mp4's of things, folderized them right and named them 'right' and can transfer them to my iPad, so you can use a computer to make the files conform to what the iPad will see.

  • How do I upload photo versions from aperture to my Ipad using photo stream.

    I am not able to upload photo versions from aperture to my ipad using photo stream.  The only photos that upload are the ones that have not been retouched.  However when I try other unretouched photos in a different album they do not upload.  Do I have some incorrect settings that need to be adjusted.

    The photos that hove not been altered in aperture are uploaded in photo stream however the altered photos (versions) are not.
    That is puzzling. My shared photo streams do upload all image versions I am dragging to them - original version and edited version. But both versions have to be shared to the stream, and they have to be unstacked, as Thomas already pointed out.
    Sometimes it takes a long time for the images to appear in the Shared Photo Stream, however. Maybe your Aperture Library needs repairing. Have you tried the Aperture Library First Aid Tools? Launched Aperture with the ⌥⌘-kys held down?

  • How to work with raw files from Nikon D600 in Lightroom 3

    I need to know how to process my raw files from my Nikon D 600 camera in Lightroom 3.6 and Photoshop 4?
    Message title was edited by: Brett N

    Support for the D600 was added in Lightroom 4.2.
    Updates are no longer released for Lightroom 3. The final update, 3.6, did not support the D600, so you cannot open raw files from this camera natively.
    You can use the DNG Converter to change your NEF files into open source DNG files that will open in any version of Lightroom, including 3.

  • How do I access iPhoto files from other programs (i.e. PhotoShop Elements)

    From within many programs, specifically PhotoShop Elements or Adobe Bridge tonight, I navigate to "iPhoto Library" and can not access the files within the library to use in these programs. I can get there from within Finder, just not other programs. This is extremely frustrating...can someone please help?

    Of course - it is a database and you must use the correct access methods
    and for a photo editor like PSE you also need to explain what you are trying to do
    IF -- you want to edit photos within the iPhoto library then simply set PSE as the external editor in the iPhoto preferences - then you edit and save (not save as) and the database is automatically updated -- if you want to choose iPhoto or PSE as the editor then after setting PSE as the external editor set the external editor back to in main window and now normal editing will be in iPhoto but by right clicking on a photo in iPhoto you get a menu allowing you to use PSE for it
    IF - you are generally asking and want the general answer - all open (or attach) dialogue windows have the media browser in the lower left - look under media ==>pictures ==> iPhoto but if you use this method you can not just return photos to iPhoto - you must save as and then import into iPhoto

  • How do I transfer photo files from desktop to ipad without 3rd party software?

    how do I transfer photo and music files from my laptop to ipad2 without purchasing a 3rd party software?

    You can use iTunes which is free (http://www.apple.com/itunes) - and that is the only way to sync music from a computer to the iPad
    Syncing photos via iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236 . You need to sync all photos that you want on the iPad together in one go, as only the most recent remains on the iPad - not including photos in a subsequent sync is how you delete them from the iPad

  • How can I access onenote files from the iPhone?

    Hi there,
    I would like to explore the method of manually and regularly moving onenote files from my iphone to my PC so that I can view them on my PC.
    Is this possible? If so, can anyone please tell me how?
    I'm thinking this will require copying a file or something from my iPhone to my PC, but how?
    Thanks

    I wouldn't hold you breath. I understand what you say you want to do, but that is going in exactly the opposite direction that the industry is moving.
    Using MS's cloud based sync is not an "extra step". It reduces the effort to keep things synchronized on your part to nearly zero.
    If there is no 'trust issue' there, as you seem to imply, then it seems you are simply trying to complicate your life by refusing to use the application the way it was designed to be used.
    One Note isn't anywhere near being 'one of a kind'. It's one among many, and not a very good one at. It's bloated, slow, and cumbersome.
    Investigate other options, or use it the way it's meant to be used, but hoping that Microsoft will move in the direction you want to go is pretty much pointless.
    Tools like File Explorer can often do more harm than good. you were never intended to have access to the file system on the phone. One wrong move can really screw things up.

  • Can anyone tell me how to separate original photo files from the edited files in Photoshop Elements 13?

    We run a child sponsorship program and we only use the edited files and delete the originals after they are edited due to space restrictions. We are using Mac's and we save our photo files each month into a folder (Not Iphoto) and then pull them into Photoshop Elements 13 to edit and resize.  When they are saved, Photoshop Organizer saves the edited files in the same file folder as the original.  We then have to manually go through and delete the original Photos.  We tried exporting and that does only export the edited files, but is there any way to edit photos and then the edited photos go into a separate file?

    GLADIXIE a écrit:
    For all 5000 photos?  Surely there is a simpler way after we go through and crop each photo and clean it up and then resize it?
    I imagine that what you want, once you have edited your month files in their month folder, is to delete the original and keep only the 'top' file in the version set. Then select all the files in your folder (Ctrl A), right click on any thumbnail and choose 'Version set'. In the dialog that opens, select 'flatten version sets'.

  • How do I  open photo files from Sony A7 and Nikon 7000?

    I am currently using CS5 Extended but can not open files from Sony A7 camera I just bought. Do I need to upgrade to CS6 where I can use camera raw 8.3 ?
    With CS6 can I still open files from my Nikon 7000 in format of DNG? Please advise.
    YAYAFORMPC

    The Nikon needs ACR 6.3 (which needs CS6 or CC) but I can't see the Sony on this list

    Either I missed it, or it's a new camera that is not yet supported.

  • How to create bulk configuration files from a template for staging?

    Hello,
    We have created a sample configuration for ISRG2 2901 Router.  The sample configuration is long, and with copy/paste it is possible to skip some lines, and it is difficult to ensure the configuration of every device is standardized due to this error possibility. What we are trying to achieve is first create a template from this sample configuration file, and then create configuration files for each device seperately and automatically. After creating this configuration instances, we want to be able to distribute the configuration files (and possibly the ios) to the devices during the staging phase. Since there are about 1000 2901 routers, creating configuration files is important?
    From searching we have found the following tools:
    1) CCE (Cisco Configuration Engine): This tool seems to be very efficient for distributing the created configuration files. We may use the serial number of the device, and it provides almost zero touch provisioning of the configuration files to the devices. Creating the configuration file from the template seems to be manual, i.e enter the ip addresses of the interfaces, the routing tables one by one for each device. How can we use velocity template for device configs?
    2) Ciscoworks LMS Prime: It is possible to create a baseline template for the devices, and after getting the backup configuration of the routers, it is possible to compare the actual configuration of the device with the baseline template, and understand if there is any difference with each other. This is indeed very useful in order to keep the configuration standardized, we again could not find a way to create bulk configuration files from the baseline template.
    3)  Solarwinds Config Generator: This tool is useful for creating a configuration file from a template, but again not for automatically creating configuration files, and needs manual intervention.
    4) Excel Macro: It seems that some people have achived to automatically create configuration files with using an excel macro, but we could not find a procedure or tip of how to achieving this.
    5) Pearl or TCL/TK Script: Again since we are not software developers but from networking field, it is difficult to achieve a working form of this scripts or codes due to to lack of documentation and development experience.
    So our problem comes down to creating a template from a sample configuration, and creating bulk configuration files from the template. Is there a specific tool or procedure to achive this purpose?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Best Regards,

  • How to add uploaded photos (not from aperture) in Mobileme Gallery to a project

    I shared some photos using a mobileme gallery where I allowed friends to upload their photos to the gallery.  Now the gallery exists with both the photos from my aperture library (and project) and my friends photos (which appear in aperture with a little symbol). 
    I would like to have the photos that were uploaded by my friends to be added to a new project without moving or erasing them in the mobileme gallery.  Is there a simple way to do this? I know if I select photos from a project and drag and drop them to another project aperture moves the photos but I don't know if this is how aperture handles mobileme galleries in the inspector.
    Jeff

    Just drag an image from the MobileMe Gallery to a project it will copy the image, not move it. Aperture will move images that are stored locally in the library but since these images uploaded by friends are only stored on the MobileMe servers, Aperture will make a copy when you drag them to a project.

  • How can I access RAW files from a Canon 650D on PSE 9 or 10?

    We have versions 9 and 10 of PSE to install on two computers, upgrading from version 6 on one of them.
    We have two Canon cameras - a 450D and a 650D - and have taken RAWs on both. The 450 works fine with PSE6, but we can't get PSE 9 to take a RAW converter new enough to read the 650 files.
    We don't really understand the difference between CR2 and DNG so don't know what we might lose if we used the DNG converter for the 650 RAW files.
    Pat & Mike

    You'll have to upgrade to PSE11 to get native support for the 650D, or use the DNG converter to make your files compatible with an earlier version.
