How do I merge 2 projects creating a 2nd album in Aperture 3?

So somehow when I was importing photos I created 2 projects for the same photo session (1 with my images and 1 with my 2nd shooter's images). I would like to merge both into one project with there being two albums? Only when I attempt to bring my 2nd shooter's photo's into my 1st project and right click / delete the images disappear. Am I doing something wrong?
Thank you
Anthony

What metadata are you using to distinguish Shooter-1's Images from Shooter-2's?
Merging Projects
- Go to Projects View
- Drag and drop one Project on another. All Images in the dragged Project will be put in the target Project, and the dragged Project will be no more. Note that you will lose all data shown on the Project Info HUD of the dragged Project, except "location" which is image-specific.
Creating Albums based on metadata
- Filter the container based on the metadata
- Click "New Album with Current Images" at the bottom of the Filter HUD.

How do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

how do I open projects created using Premier Elements 8 with Premier Elements 13

ATR
The DVD Creator.dll file was in the proper location but I could not find a Run As Administrator Option.
I did delete Prefs file and try again to open the app then the project and received the same problem. And the scratch disks were all directed to the Elements 13 path
Yesterday I did try additional solutions
Removed the Elements 13 App vis the Control Panel, copy the original downloaded .zip File to the Desktop and reload the entire application with no success solving the problem
In addition to that I contacted a site called Rescue.com? and the guy told me that he was a representative of Adobe, which I was not sure was the truth. He looked at my system and told me that Premier 13 was not compatible with Windows 7. I called BS on him told him that Adobe site said it was compatible and he told me I had a Trojan on my system and he would refund my money for Elements 13 and sell me version 12, which would be compatible, along with a better security system than the Norton 360 I told him I had. At that point I immediately terminated our communications and called Norton to have additional checks performed to ensure no additions were added to my system. They had me download and run Power Eraser from them and it found nothing wrong.
I also temporarily turned off the firewall and tried to use the Elements 13 but had no success.
I also went to Microsoft Windows site and searched for the Exception code: 0xc0000005 that was displayed in the event viewer and they indicated there was a hotfix available and they would email me that fix. ave not received the email yet.
I’m getting very frustrated but thank you for your help. I will update you with and additional results or actions I get or perform.

How do you merge multiple songs into one album?

When I added a downloaded album to iTunes, it created one album for each track. How do I merge all of these albums/tracks into one album?

Some albums will fracture into a million pieces if you have different artist names. How the columns are sorted can effect this.
If it is a multiple artists on one album select 'Compilation' in the options section for all of the songs on the album.
NOTE: You need to have multiple items selected to set this flag!

How do I get project downloaded to 2nd user's PC?

I'm testing RH6 with RoboSource Control 3. Was able
to covert existing project and get it up onto server as single
user. Checking in out as single user is fine. Now, I want to test
how it works with 2nd user.
When 2nd user tries to get project off the server, it seems
to be okay. Used "recursive" to get the file structure.
When she opens the project in RH6, gets error that cpd file
is corrupt. Delete the cpd and try again, same error.
If ignore the error message, the project opens but there are
lots of broken links. Also, the single source info for the project
is missing (should be FlashHelp).
How do I get this to work for 2nd user? I'm not an IT person,
just a tech writer, so need step by step instructions.

Once you've got the RSC DB set up, loading the project into
source control is easy. First, you'll need to get RH acquainted
with the new DB. To do this, use RSC3 Explorer to open the new
database. Once you've created a connection to the new DB, you can
close the RSC Explorer. Then open your project in RH6 and click the
Add to Version Control button in the RoboHelp toolbar. Select the
correct connection name; other than that, accept the defaults. (For
the Root Path box, you'll probably need to click the "..." button
and then select the top level folder, $.) Wait for the process to
complete. When it's done, all the files will be checked out to you.
Go ahead and check them all back in.
As for the 2nd user, I like to skip some of the setup work by
doing it this way: zip the folder containing the source files and
let the other users extract it onto their machines. They can just
open the project from the xpj, and the setup is largely done for
them already. And for large projects, the cpd file is already
built, which can save time.
I'm new at RSC3, and I'm working from memory here, so there
may be details missing. Still, that's the general gist.
HTH,

Too Many Photos for one album - How do I create a 2nd album w/o losing my work?

I had no idea there was a 100 page cap on photo albums. I was ¾ of the way through a photo album when I hit the 100 pp. ceiling. Now I want to divide my event into two separate albums, without re-doing all my work. Any suggestions?

This worked perfectly, Terence, thanks so much for the suggestion!

Why do songs randomly separate from an album? How can I merge them back into the album?

When I upload songs into my library either by adding files from the music folder on my Windows 7 64bit pc OR by inserting an audio CD, I have found that songs from the album randomly separate in my music library. Not sure why since the artist and album title still match - but just want to be able to get them to merge back as part of the album. Other pain point is that when they separate , they don't show the artwork?
Thanks in advance for any help or info...
Terri

How do I import images created in earlier versions of Aperture and saved to DVD as an Aperture library into Aperture 3.2.1?

When I insert the DVD into my MacPro the disk appears as though it is blank, with the little 'burn' icon in the top right
When I insert the DVD into my macbook it shows the full Aperture library structure and when I allow file sharing between the machines the MacPro can also recognises the files
I suspect I am making a basic error somewhere as the images are clearly all there. This doesnt just occur for one DVD, I have dozens that are all perfroming in the same way when I try to import files created in an earlier version of Aperture back into the version I am now using, 3.2.1
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
Reiss.

To get the old library into Aperture it will need to be upgrade. To do this you will need to copy the library off the DVD onto our HD and then open Aperture on this library. Aperture should then upgrade the library to the latest version.

How do I get rid of empty MobileMe albums that Aperture 3.4.5 won't let me delete?

I'm running Aperture 3.4.5 in OS X 10.8.4. I dumped my MobileMe Galleries when I switched to iCloud last year. But I just noticed that Aperture still shows icons for MobileMe albums in my Projects list, even though they are empty and aren't linked to any web account (they don't appear in the "Preferences: Web: Accounts" list). When I select one of them and choose "File: Delete MobileMe album," the album's web broadcast icon changes to a warning sign. But there's no explanation of what the warning means. AND the album remains in the Projects list. How can I get rid of these ghosts?

HT201340 How do I merge multiple iphoto libraries

I have multiple iphoto libraries on an external HD. Not much memory left on my mac HD. So I'm trying to clear up some memory. I would like to merge/organize the iPhoto libraries on the external HD. But I can't figure out how to separate the photos. I just want to organize them into seperate years, i.e., photos 2009, 2010, 2011, etc.
And since I now have aperture, how can I get these photos organized into simple annual libraries onto the external HD?
Sorry if this has been posted a million times, but I can't figure it out and don't want to lose any photos.

Reorganizing your photolibraries can be error-prone, so before you start, I'd recommend to check your backups of the libraries, if they are current and working.

iPhoto does not support to export partial libraries or to import and merge photo libraries, but Aperture does.
Your question does link to the document "Aperture 3.3: How to use Aperture to merge iPhoto libraries" that describes how you can merge libraries.
Do you have compatible Aperture and iPhoto versions? Aperture 3.4.5 and iPhoto 9.4.3? If yes, then you can unify your photo libraries by creating a new Aperture library on your external drive and using the command "File > Import > Library" to import your iPhoto libraies one by one into the the Aperture library.
Aperture works well with large libraries. You could keep all images in that one library and be done.
But if you really want separate, small libraries for each year, define smart albums in Aperture:
New > Smart album
and in the "Smart Settings" HUD for the album press "Add Rule" and add a "Date" rule. Set this rule to "Capture Year is ....".
This way you will have all images grouped by date in the library Inspector.
You could then proceed to export partial Aperture libraries for each year: Select the smart album and use the command "File > Export > Album as library". This will create a new Aperture library, just for that year. You can open this library in iPhoto, if you want.
I myself prefer to have all my photos in just one library; that makes it much easier to search all my photos at once and to combine them freely.

Merging Multiple Artists Into One Album

Ok so I donwloaded a CD called Buzz Cuts with alot of great artisits. Now my problem is there are 30 songs and Itunes is showing 30 different albums even though they are all from the same CD. Its messing up because of all the different artists. How can I merge them all into one album called Buzz Cuts. Or is there a way to sort them. Its a pain having 30 extra cds at the top screen. Please help.

All of this can be adjusted by simply right clicking a song and selecting "Get info." Under the info tab, you can customize things like crazy. For instance, you can insert into the "album" field the title of the compilation.

I created a 2nd itunes account, not I want to merge the 2 accts and delete the old one - how do i do this?

i created a 2nd itunes account, not I want to merge the 2 accts and delete the old one - how do i do this?

Any reason you created a new account instead of updating the old account with any new info?
You cannot merge accounts. Anything purchased on an account will stay linked to that account and cannot be changed.

How can I include merged projects in the printed documentation?

I have a master project with several merged projects. This works splendid with online documentation, but when I am asked to provide a printed version, it seems I have to create separate documents for each merged project.
Is there any setting or fix that enables print also of merged projects and topics when I create printed documentation?
Pretty please with sugar on top :-)

Hm - there is a contract with the customer, saying that he wants documentation both as word and pdf, and as we now aim at only writing online documentation, these tasks create extra work, as we are delivering updates each month
But yes - two beasts, where only chm is actually needed we think.

Hi there
I'm a bit curious as to the reasoning behind your "persuation process for using chm-files only".
CHM files and printed documentation are two entirely different beasts.

How can I make a photo from two merged projects available for a book that I started using one project ? They merge but the book only allows me to access the original project photos even though the merged photos can be seen in the project ?

I have successfully merged two projects in order to add new photos for my book. The library available to the book which has 26 completed pages accesses only the original project library. Has anyone else had this problem ? It is frustrating to see the photos I want in the merged project file, but to have only the original photos when I started the book available in the book library.

That will work, but it is the long way 'round.
As Frank noted, Book Albums are just specialized Albums. Albums can show any Image in your Library, regardless of where the Album is located on the Library Inspector, and regardless of which Project contains the Image. You can put your Albums anywhere (in a Folder called "Books" for example). You can put Images from anywhere in your Library in any Album.
The easy way 'round:
- Make a new Book Album
- Select Images you may want to put in your Book. Flag them.
- Select some more. Flag them.
- Go to the "Flagged" container (listed near the top of the Library Inspector), select all, and drag-and-drop them to your Book Album.
- Repeat as needed, or just drag-and-drop directly into the Book Album.
Note that you can remove any Image from any Album (including Books) by selecting and hitting the "{Delete}" key. This _does not remove the Image from the Project that contains it, or from the Library.
Note, too, that once the Images are in your Book Album, you then put them in the Book you are creating for publication. The Book Album contains the superset of Images with which you populate the Book itself. The Book Album also holds the Book.
A good (imho ) introduction to the parts of Aperture can be found in this short guide I wrote.
The User Manual is helpful. Here is
the chapter on making Books.
From that chapter, here is
the section detailing how to create and populate a Book Album.
