How to remove an old Aperture library from Photo Browswer list

A while ago I gave Aperture a try and then uninstalled it.
Now in the various Mac apps that have a "photo browser" function (such as Mail, Keynote, etc), "Aperture" still shows up in the list of available libraries, even though it contains no photos.
How can I remove this?
Thanks

Try removing this file:
root/library/application support/ilifemediabrowser/plugins/iLMBAperturePlugin.ilmbplugin

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?

How can I migrate an Aperture library from an external HDD with Mac OS Extended (Journaled, Encrypted) format?
I used to store my pictures on an external hard drive using the latest version of Aperture. Now I tried migrating my Aperture library to Photos. However, after a short moment an error message popped up telling me that "Photos was unable to make a copy of your library before preparing it. Photos does not have the necessary permissions...".
My external HDD doesn't need any permission repairs nor is the system prohibited to read from or write to it.
Thanks for any advice in advance!

My guess is that the encryption is the problem for the new app.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must use the previous owner's password to get permission to use the device. If you cannot get the password your father put on the iPad you will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

How to use iMovie with Aperture Library from an external drive?

Hey,
Some problems:
1. My first video, I stored the project on my own laptop and used the library from the HD. This seems to give some problems, but I now figured out I have to consolidate the media etc. so now my files don't get missing after unplugging the harddrive. I figured it would be a better idea to make all new projects on the HD, so I have everything in place all the time. BUT. look at the picture: there seems to be something wrong with the way iMovie recognizes the aperture library: i'ts not listed in the events library under the HardDisk (named Passport) but under my own drive... ??? (+ I don't understand the idea of events when I have my aperture library: Do I need to make events for all projects I make? how is this possible when the library is not in the correct position?)
2. I made a movie, but I'm unable to export a large/high quality version of this project. That's why I want to move my project to the HD and then open it on my partners Mac Book Pro to make a good export. Unfortunately, his macbook doesn't recognize the files and the files can't be opened in iMovie... (files stay gray and unclickable)
To sum it all up:
I want the best way to work with this set-up: mac book air, external drive with all my files and iMovie. And I want to be able to open the project on a different computer to make high quality exports.

First thing that comes up with videos in your 'picture' library is the videos are always under the full control of the picture library program. Which means Aperture is the keeper and master, and it decides what will be displayed in iMovie's Event Library. If Aperture is having difficulties sometimes it cannot or will not display the videos you are storing there.
Right now, I think the problem is your Aperture Library is on the internal Mac HD, not the external. You would have to move Aperture's Library to the external HD (along with all the pictures and videos). Then try to add the videos back into a project.
In extreme cases I have recommended moving the videos out of the picture library and re-importing them into iMovie Event folders to let iMovie manage it.

How to find my old aperture library after upgrade?

I recently updated my system to OSX 10.10, upon attempting to open aperture to view my photos, an info box came up saying my version of aperture was redundant and i should upgrade via the mac app store, I then tried to open the library through iPhoto and was given a message in the same tone (see screenshot 1).
I then purchased Aperture to upgrade the library and view all of my photos. Upon launching it did not give me an option to load the library in question, instead I was only given the option to load from the iPhoto library or to create a new library which, incidentally, was created as a REPLACEMENT to the existing library, in effect overwriting all of the data from my aperture library of five years with a new empty library.
No problem, I backed up the aperture library to ext HD but it is also refusing to open with the new aperture software (see screenshot 2).
How do I find the version of the library that was on the computer before it was replaced with the empty new one, it must be there as it was amounting to about 16 GB of photos, they cant just disappear?

I then purchased Aperture to upgrade the library and view all of my photos.
If your Aperture version has been any version of Aperture 3, you are entitled to a free update. If the App Store is charging you, contact the App Store Support. Your email receipt should have a "Report a problem" link.
is there a way without time machine to find the library which was being used at the time of upgrade?
Did you keep your library in your Pictures folder? Check the sizes of all libraries you are seeing there. Sometimes an library will appear to be apparently empty, even if there are gigabytes of photos in them.
To find all libraries, or traces of them, search with Fnd Any File (http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/index.php) as described by Old Toad at this link:
Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?
Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of iPhoto libraries.
FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

How do I migrate old iPhoto Library from Mac to new MBA?

Attempted to move iPhoto library from old Mac to MBA by coping file to external drive. Copy only gets halfway done then stops with message that some items cannot be copyed. Help.

How is your external drive formatted? This problem usually occurs, if you are copying from/to a drive that is not formatted Mac OS X Extended, and usually, if your Photo Library contains files with filename that include national characters, like äöüé, etc.
If your drive is still the default MS-DOS (FAT) reformat it using Disk Utility, and then try again to copy.
If this does nor help, look at the part of your Photo Library, that has been copied. You can open the library by ctrl-clicking it in the Finder, then select "Show Package Contents". From the files that have been copied, try to figure out, which file would have been copied next and causes the error. Check, if you can open it in Preview or another program. Look, if the filename contains non-standard characters.

How do i disconnent old itunes library from iphone?

I had my iphone connected first through my old windows computer, but have since gotten an macair book and want to put some music on my iphone through the mac. But then I get the message that phone was already connected with other comp and if I want to delete this phone and use itunes on mac.
Since I sync through the cloud, I don't want to delete my phone, I just want itunes to forget the old comp.
How do I get this working?
thanks for the help!

You sync to the new computer.
Iphone will sync with one computer at a time. Syncing to anohter will indeed erase the current selected itunes content and replace with the content from the new computer. This has nothing to do with icloud content.

How to remove file path location listings from photos and objects in Acrobat Pro 9.0 PDF?

After converting a windows-based Powerpoint 2007 presentation to an Acrobat Pro 9.0 PDF, the file path location of all photos and objects are shown in a dialogue box when the cursor is moved over the image as seen in this screenshot below. How can I stop this from happening and remove this feature on my pdf documents?

I saw that referenced on a forum, but it does not seem to address the issue I am having.
As per Adobe Acrobat X Standard * What’s new, the equivalent to the "Tools > Protection > Remove Hidden Information" utility found in Acrobat X Standard is the same as the "Document > Examine Document" feature in Acrobat Pro 9.0. Those tools seem to cover meta data, book marks, hidden text, and deleted or cropped content, but not the file path listings that appear on images and objects converted from Powerpoint presentations and other MS Office programs.
I have reviewed the settings used while creating a pdf, and have also tried the “Advanced > Preflight tool”, but could not find anything to apply to the issue at hand.
Thus, this issue has not been resolved, but seems like it should be an easy fix that anyone who publishes pdf documents would want to use to publish clean, professional documents without anyone seeing the file path location of every object and image shown in the document on their hard drive.

How can I create an iPhoto Library from photos on an external drive?

Here's my issue:
I have a MacBook Pro running OS X Mavericks, and I am just about out of hard drive space.
I also have about 20 GB worth of photos on an external drive. The photos are not organized at all, just got dumped into a folder there during a hasty backup a couple years ago.
I'd like to use iPhoto to get these photos organized, but don't have the space to import them into the library on my laptop.
How can I create and manage an iPhoto library with these photos while keeping them on the external drive? They are on a terabyte drive, so I have a feeling I'd like to make that my main library moving forward.

Check that the drive's formatted as Mac OS Extended, drag the iPhoto library to it, launch iPhoto with the Option key held down, and choose that library.

How do I transfer my entire library from an old version of aperture (1.5)?

I need to transfer my entire aperture library from an old version of aperture (1.5) on my old imac (G5) to my new imac with Aperture (3.0).
I have got a backup in the form of a vault, but aperture 3.0 doesn't seem to be accepting that to create a full new library in 3.0.
Any ideas on how to transfer my library? cheers

Incomplete information:
When i go to File>Vault> Restore Library, it does not recognise the vault as it was from a previous version of aperture and suggests that i 'import' the vault instead.
Fair enough. But when i try and import the vault, it shows the vault in that light grey colour, which means that i can see it, but it won't allow me to select..

How can I get my Aperture library back from the Photos application?

As stated above, How can I get my Aperture library back from the Photos application? I'm not a fan of Photos right now and haven't used iPhoto in years, so that wasn't a loss... I didn't realize when I gave Photo's access to my Aperture library, I was going to lose it...
I want to get it back, any suggestions?
Thanks again!
MacTeacherMN

what means ..."Once you open the Aperture library back into Aperture..."? What do I need to "klick" in order to getting back my old Aperture Project structure....

How to migrate Aperture library from PowerMac to MacPro

I copied my Aperture library from my old PowerMac G5 (10.5.8) to my new MacPro (10.6.2) but Aperture on the MacPro could not display any of the images included in the the library. It properly displayes the previews but instead of an image in the main window it always shows the info unsupported image format. Only the images that are references to files outside the library can be displayed.
So what is the proper way to move an Aperture library from a PPC Mac to an Intel Mac?
Thanks in advance, Martin

If it's a managed library you can just copy it: It's that easy.
If it's a referenced library it's a lot trickier, as you can move the library and not the images.
Which do you have? It's probably easiest in the case of a referenced library to consolidate it, move it, and then move it back to referenced, if your library is of a moderate size.
But there are details on how to do this in the Aperture documentation; I suggest you have a read for the best practices on this.
