How do I find/delete damaged image?

I have been able to get Aperture to open successfully by holding the shift key down when first opening the application, deferring preview generation. According to the basic troubleshooting tips this indicates that I have a damaged image that is causing the problem opening Aperture. How do i find the offending image?
Thanks,
George

Hello George,
your damaged image probably is from your most recent import. I'd suggest to try to open the master image files from your recent import in another program e,g, Preview.
If your library is managed . the masters included in he library package, you will find them by ctrl-clicking the  the Aperture library package in the Finder and selecting "Show package Contents".
Then open the "Masters" folder. This folder is organized chronologically by the import date. So your corrupted image most probably will be in the folder with the most recent date.
Browse this folder and try to open the images in Preview (or your camera's raw converter, if you are shooting raw).
If you cannot spot the culprit this way,  then you will have to try to find the corrupted image by creating previews for subsets of your images in Aperture.
Turn on the Activity Viewer (Window -> Show Activity) to see which images Aperture is processing.
Select some of your recent import, ctrl-click the images and select "Update Preview".
If Aperture crashes again, you will know the corrupt image is one of the currently selected.
Restart, and try the same for half of the selection, until you know which image it is.
Regards
Léonie
It will be hard work to find the image ...

  • How do I find the aperture image files so that I can attach them to an email

    How do I find the aperture image files? I know that you can email images from aperture. But how would I attach an image using Mail?

    if you mean to go into the Aperture library in order to get image files to print with Canon's software it's not really possible. The best you would be able to do would be to get the master image and if you're shooting RAW that will be the RAW file. In any case no adjustments you made to the image in Aperture would be available, versions don't exist as files until you export them.
    If you want to print with the Canon software you would export the image from Aperture and then print that image file.
    If I've misunderstood your question post back,

  • How to I find/delete empty layers? (AS)

    Cleaning house on the files I get with 20 pages and 15 layers! Any input on how I can find and delete the empty layers via Applescript? Otherwise, I am first trying to move every item to one layer, then delete the empty layers. Long process....

    G'day
    You can use non-Applescript solutions to give you hints.
    The above posts point to a property of layers which is also available through Applescript — page items.
    So, maybe try...
    tell application "Adobe InDesign CS4"
        activate
        tell active document
            repeat with x from (count layers) to 1 by -1
                get page items of layer x
                if result is {} then
                    delete layer x
                end if
            end repeat
        end tell
    end tell

  • How do i find a damaged file?

    i am having problems putting my movies on my 30gig. It keeps telling me it cant load them. The file may be damaged. How do i find out?

    In the Finder, menu Go > *Go to folder…*
    and put /Private/var/folders/
    But those are all pretty much temp and cache folders so I wouldn't worry about it.
    The OS will take care of it.

  • How do I find and extract images in from email

    Over the years, plenty of people have shared pictures with me via email.  I want to find all those pictures and make copies to put into aperture.  I don't want to grab all the pictures that are .gifs that are icons from applications or signature etc.
    Does anyone know a good way or app to do this?  Finder doesn't seem to allow me to exclude certain files.

    Let's get a few things out of the way first.
    As to X1, forget it. It's Windows only, and it's not exactly cheap.
    Also, nothing I say applies to Outlook. I assume you're talking Outlook 2011, and I have no clue how it works.
    As to Finder, it doesn't do searches. All searches are done by Spotlight. Finder's Find command, the Spotlight menu, these are just different ways of interacting with Spotlight. And, yes, of course you can exclude certain files. You simply have to learn to use Spotlight. I'm not a fan -- I think Spotlight is not a search engine, but a sorry, pathetic excuse for one -- but still, it can do a few things if you handle it right.
    Now, about Mail. AFAIK, Apple does not document the <~/Library/Mail> structure, so what follows is from my own observations, and hence not authoritative.
    Incoming and outgoing messages from your mail accounts, ie, listed in Mail.app's Sidebar under "Mailboxes", are stored in <~/Library/Mail/[account]>, inside .mbox packages, as individual .emlx files. An .emlx file contains the raw message, plus an XML footer. Any attachments are, of course, inside the raw message in base64 encoding. The .emlx metadata does not include whether or not the message contains an attachment, so you can't use Spotlight to search for messages with attachments, nor can you do that in Mail.
    However, messages which are moved from your mail accounts to local, user-created mailboxes, listed in Mail.app's Sidebar under "On My Mac", are treated slightly differently. They are still stored as .emlx files (including attachments) inside .mbox packages, which, in their turn, are inside a directory named "Mailboxes", but the attachments are also extracted to an Attachments directory inside the respective .mbox package, being stored inside directories labelled with the respective message's number. With this arrangement, finding images with Spotlight becomes trivial.
    For instance, you say you want to find all images which are not GIFs. In Finder, select <~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes>, then ⌘F or ⇧⌘F. In the search field, type
    kind:image NOT .gif
    (the Boolean operator NOT is case sensitive). This should find all images which do not contain the string ".gif" in their file name. Of course, there are strings attached.  If there is an image named, say, "my_photo.gif.jpg", it will be missed. Also, "kind:image" only looks for TIFF, JPEG, PNG, GIF and BMP formats. It will probably not find RAW images, or those in more exotic formats.
    So, your first step in Mail (if you haven't done so already) is to organise your mail, irrespective of attachments, in mailboxes and folders in "On My Mac". (IMHO, this is a good idea in any case.)
    The next step is to use a Spotlight search as described above to find all images. After that, it's up to you. I don't know how Aperture works. Maybe you can just import them, or maybe you need to copy them to some folder. (Remember, you may copy stuff from <~/Library/Mail>, but don't move or delete any of it in Finder -- or the wrath of Mac OS X will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger!) If you do need to copy them to some other folder, I suspect you'll discover another bridge to cross, but we'll deal with that when -- if -- we get there.

  • How can I replace a damaged Image Capture in locked Lion Application folder?

    I am running a MacBook Air on 10.7.2. Image Capture is "damaged or incomplete" and cannot be opened. I have a copy of IC from my other mac running Lion, but cannot copy it into the Apps folder on my MacBook Air because IC cannot be modified or deleted since it is "needed by Mac OS X." Is there an easy way to unlock the Apps folder? Thanks.

    I finally figured out a way to do this. I right-clicked to show the package contents for the corrupted application. Then copied in the contents from a functioning version. Gave administrator permission to make the change. Relaunched the finder and the damaged application was back up and running and no longer greyed out.

    If you erased your hard drive and you have no back up, your library is lost. If you have your music on an iPod, it may be recoverable with third-party software.
