How do I continue to have access to my various Aperture libraries (~1.5 TB) for future use?

I am a professional photographer and run a small business.  I have used Aperture since its inception and now have ~1.5 TB of photos in various Aperture libraries spanning several years.  How do I preserve all of this work so that i don't lose access to it when Aperture finally dies?

Which version of Aperture are you running? If you have upgraded to Aperture 3.6, you will be able to open all Aperture libraries with the new Photos.app. Aperture libraries and Iphoto Libraries can be migrated losslessly to Photos.
Aperture 3.6 will soon no longer be available for purchase. If you need to upgrade, do it soon.
Since Photos does not have all editing tools Aperture had, you may want to migrate to other professional applications, Lightroom, Capture One Pro. But there is no lossless migration path.

  • HT1668 How do I stop the exchange and or yahoo email accounts from keeping email address for future use.

    How do I clear out the email address' that are automatically saved and re appear when addressing a new email? 
    This is unique to my phone and does not happen on either of the email accounts when using a computer.

    Yes, it will be just as it was new out of the box.  You would need to import your photos (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts (by syncing them with iCloud or Google, or using an app like My Contacts Backup) if you want to save them.  Your music should be in your iTunes library, along with other iTunes content (apps, movies, podcasts, etc.) and can be synced back to your phone.  You would lose your text messages, and would have to set up your email accounts again.

  • I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

  • I work in a public library and we have two ipod touch and two ipod nanos we would like to circulate for our patrons. Any advice on how we can do this? Should we allow patrons to set the device up for personal use or download static content?

    I work in a public library and we have two ipod touch and two ipod nanos we would like to circulate for our patrons. Any advice on how we can do this? Should we allow patrons to set the device up for personal use or download static content?

    With the Nanos, you should have no problem lending them loaded with audiobooks from Librivox, etc.
    As for the iPod Touches, I'm not sure the question is whether you should allow patrons to set up the device for personal accounts, but whether you can prevent them from doing so. Prepare to to a factory restore every time one is returned.

  • HT1420 My songs that I purchased on my itunes account from my dad's computer will not play on my new computer, I have access to my entire account but can only play songs purchased using my new computer. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Hi Kevin,
    Have you authorized the Computer to your Apple ID?
    If not, sign on to iTunes.
    Then got to the Store menu option at the top of the screen (CTL+B if it is not showing), and click on it to display the dropdown, and select Authorize this computer.
    If that doesn't work, then sign on your Dad's iTunes ID and repeat the Authorization process.

  • How can I export songs with full info (INCLUDING LYRICS) to file for future use? [x]

    Hi everyone,
    I got my new iPod touch 4th gen, and I spend literally all day to edit songs' info like Artist, Lyrics, Album... with like thousand songs.. Then I've tried to export them fully for future use as back up, but I could not find any option to do so. Exporting library and playlist only saves info for basic tags but no lyrics in it. So what should I do? I've tried iTunes Export and mp3Tag but I still could not do it.
    I would appreciate much any help for me to back up full information of songs for future use.
    Regards,
    [x]

    Thanks for the responses.
    I forgot to mention the dimensions I need the file to be at, sorry. Overnight Prints requires that the uploaded file be at 2.13 inches wide by 6.13 inches high (or 638 by 1838 pixels) at 300 dpi. I think I understand what Scott Falkner means by pixels are not a unit of measure. However, I have been using inches in Illustrator, with the file being set to the height and width (in inches) required by Overnight Prints.
    Here is what I have uploaded to Overnight Prints so far:
    - Illustrator file set to 2.13 inches wide by 6.13 inches high – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but shows the bookmark as pixelated/blurry.
    - Saved above Illustrator file as copy: “Press Quality Preset” PDF – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but the bookmark is still pixelated/blurry.
    - Exported same Illustrator file as a PNG (638 pixels wide by 1838 pixels high - 300dpi) – Upload preview on Overnight Prints is correct size, but shows the bookmark as pixelated/blurry.
    - Creating an Illustrator file at 638 by 1838 pixels makes any file that is uploaded preview on Overnight Prints as too large, but not pixelated/blurry (I think I now understand why, just covering all my bases).
    So, I guess my more specific question would be:
    How can I create a file that I can upload to Overnight Prints (TIF, PDF, JPG, EPS, PNG, or AI) that ends up at the dimensions (in inches) required, while not appearing (at least in the upload preview) as low resolution (pixelated/blurry)?
    Thanks in advance for any responses (especially to such a novice question).

  • HOw do I save a form once it is completed for future use in windows 7

    How do I save an adobe form once I have completed it for future use? I have windows 7 and the only option is to save a blank form.

    That could be caused by a couple of reasons.
    If it is an IRS form, they use a server side solution to enable forms so Reader users can save them. It's very expensive and word is that they have not updated this solution to work with the latest versions of Reader. So you would have to use the older version.
    With the new version of Acorbat, people can now enable forms so Reader users can save them (which is a much cheaper solution than the above scenario) but you need Adobe Reader 7 or better to use this function.

    How to make a photo STAY in the assets panel for future use for In browser editing?
    When I delete a photo from a page, it does not stay in the assets panel. My client uses in browser editing daily. Once a week he changes a photo just for a day, then needs the previous photo to replace it. The original photo is not in the asset panel (or folder) for him to choose.
    When you upload a photo, it has an arrow in the asset panel. How do you use this as an asset?

    Sure ... right mouse click on  your page and choose 'Exclude Page from Menus' :-)

  • How do I preserve folder views for future use?

    When I open any folder it seems to use the view of the previous folder.  In windows 3.1, ME and XP I could set the view for each individual folder and it would be saved for future use.  I want the folders at the top of my stored image hierarchy
    to show me the list view and the folders below them that contain actual images to show me thumbnails.  Instead I have to reset them every time I open them.  Am I doing something wrong or have the MS(H)IT people screwed up this OS, too?
    I am sending this to "Sandbox forums" because I no idea where to send it.  Not one of the choices you offer make any sense to me.  I just want to make this benighted software easier to use.  If this comes to the worng place please forward
    it for me.

  • How do you save a PDF fillable form with a Samsung Tablet and still continue to have access to the original document?

    We are using the Samsung Note and have uploaded a PDF form for fieldwork crews to enter vegetation data. When we have filled in the form there is no option to save the form under a different name but rather the form simply saves itself with the most recent information placed in it. We understand that you can send it through Acrobat.com to your account but the tablet will not access this site while in the PDF app. Does anyone know of an app or a way that we can create individually saved files and still have access to the original on the tablet?

    It can also work if you certify the document and each user chooses to trust it to execute privileged JavaScript, which may be feasible in this setting. The method you'd use is doc.saveAs: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.524.html
