I copied my mac HD into aperture library by mistake, how can I correct this?

I Had some photos saved to my desktop. I selected them to move them into a folder in the aperture library but forgot about the Mac HD icon, which was selected as well
As a result I copied the entire hard drive into the library. This has rendered it unworkable. I tried to delete the HD copy from the library, but I run out of application memory trying.
Any solutions?

Do you have a backup?

  • HT4796 I cannot open any files transferred from the PC to my MAC as I am "not authorized". How can I correct this?

    I cannot open any files transferred from my Windows PC to my Mac as I am "not authorized". How can I correct this?

    Select the folderr containing all of those files, CMD+I, click on the lock, enter your admin password, add yourself with read & write, and click on the action button and select apply to enclosed items. That should do the trick. BTW, I don't have a PC, so i've not transfered any such files to my machine.

  • Aperture (3.4.1) no longer opens and the following message appears: There was an error opening the database for the library "/ Users / Andrea / Pictures / Aperture 3 Library.aplibrary." How can I solve this problem? Thanks

    I was using Aperture (3.4.1), when he appeared a notice that asked me to stop the Mac with the power button. When I restart Aperture no longer opens and the following message appears: There was an error opening the database for the library "/ Users / Andrea / Pictures / Aperture 3 Library.aplibrary."
    How can I solve this problem?
    Thanks

    After a system crash your Aperture Library may be corrupted, because Aperture may not have been able to finish the ongoing database transactions.
    Have you tried the Aperture Library First Aid Tools?
    Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    Try "Repair Database", and if this does not help: "Rebuild Database"

  • I recently purchased a MacBook Pro. I would like to transfer Aperture from my Mac Mini to my new MP. How can I do this?

    I recently purchased a MacBook Pro. I would like to transfer Aperture from my Mac Mini to my new MP. How can I do this?

    Thanks, Sig.  I think I should've been a little clearer.  I've attempted to do the updates on my Mac, but I get a warning that it will erase everything except calenders, email, etc from the iPad.  I've syned the iPad with the Mac with no problem, but get scary messages when I try to do the latest update.

  • I need to make a copy of an entire email, including the header w/the sender's info and time, etc. to insert into a letter, etc. How can I do this w/out cutting and paste and doing the header separately from the text.

    I need to make a copy of an entire email, including the header w/the sender's info and time, etc. to insert into a letter, etc. How can I do this w/out cutting and pasting   the header separately from the text. I know there is a way besides a screen shot but I've spend hours trying to find it.

    For the particularly persnickety types you might want to expose the full headers in the email message as well.  It's easy enough to do, from mail's 'menu' select "view"; then "message"; then all headers.
    Another option you could use is a screen capture using Grab.
    Activate Grab, then shift + command + w (for a window screen shot).  Then confirm the window selection and click the mail message.

  • In Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    n Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    You said:
    I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.
    ...and:
    Are you saying that my address book has not been hacked into?  That others are getting these email addresses from another source?
    This confuses me.  Are you saying that you are receiving bogus e-mails from some of your contacts, or are you saying that they are receiving bogus e-mails from you?
    If the latter, there are a number of reasons that people might be getting e-mail from you.  Malware, though technically possible, is extremely unlikely.  See Someone is sending messages from my e-mail address!
    If the former, that's rather unusual.  The only decent explanation I can think of is that a bunch of your Windows-using contacts got infected with something and their machines are being used to spam everyone in their contact lists, which would include you.

  • The lens correction option in Lightroom 5 is for the Tamron 28-75mm lens, rather than the correct Tamron 18-270mm, even though it's correct in the Library metadata. How can I fix this?

    The lens correction option in Lightroom 5 is for the Tamron 28-75mm lens, rather than the correct Tamron 18-270mm, even though it's correct in the Library metadata. How can I fix this?

    Are you shooting RAW or JPG or some of both?
    When you say it won't let you change it, does that mean there are no lens profiles at all, or no lens profiles that match your lens? If you set Auto or Default you can select any lens you want from the list of manufacturers and profiles and then the Setup says Custom.  Of course this lens may not be the correct lens, but saying you cannot change it suggests there are no manufacturers or lenses listed on the dropdowns.
    Most lens profiles are for RAW only, so if you shoot a mixture of RAW and JPG then for the JPGs the lens profile may not exist.  If you are enabling Lens Profiles and have Auto or Default set and it chooses the wrong one then it may just be choosing the top one in the list for Canon if the specific profile doesn't exist for JPGs.
    If you are shooting raw and the profile does exist then you should be able to correct the situation:  In the list select the correct profile, then choose Setup:  Save New Lens Profile Defaults, and select Default from the Setup instead of Auto and it should pick the correct lens every time.  Assuming it does do that, then you can set Enable Lens Profiles = checked and Setup: Default and set those as your new Lightroom Defaults and it should pick the right lens.
    If you are shooting JPG then the lens profile may well not exist and there's nothing you can do about that except not shoot JPG.  If you feel like it you can hack a raw profile to be a jpg profile and put that hacked copy in the user-lens-profile area and LR will see it.

  • Flash 11.1 on Firefox 19.0 on android is not allowing text to be entered into text boxes (through flash) - how can i resolve this?

    My neice is trying to use the Build-a-Bear website, which requires Flash to login and run its services. However, the plug in is loading correctly, but we cannot enter letters into the login box, just numbers.
    It's not a firefox problem with entering text as on other websites (such as BBC) text can be entered into plain search boxes.
    How can I resolve this?

    Is there any timescale as to when it's likely to be resolved?

  • I would like to convert my LPs to digital on my new mac book pro with retinal display . How can i do this?

    . How can i do this?

    The new Mac's do not have analog audio in so you will have to go with a USB audio in device or else if you do not yet own a turntable (or are looking to upgrade) you could get a turntable that has USB out.
    The Griffin Technology iMic USB Audio Device is a low cost consumer grade solution if you already have a turntable.
    For recording I use Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder which does a good job and has the ability to run the audio signal through various filters.

    Hi Buterem,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your MacBook Pro since your recent Yosemite update. I also apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you are having intermittent but persistent responsiveness issues with your mouse or trackpad, you may want to try using Activity Monitor to see if these incidents correspond to occupied system resources, especially system memory or CPU. You may find the following article helpful:
    How to use Activity Monitor - Apple Support
    If the entire system hangs or locks up (for example, if the system clock freezes and stops counting up), you may also be experiencing some variety of Kernel Panic. If that is the case, you may also find this article useful:

    Lightroom 6 is up and running.  Upgraded from LR5.  However I want to change the file name to be more generic, e.g., description in LR5 references LR5 and I want to change that to just John G's LR Catalog/Library.lrcat.  How can I accomplish this without fouling everything up?

    Ok, well you'll need to do something like this. Now this part is a little dependent on your database server:
           try {
                Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver").newInstance();
                Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection(
                                                           "jdbc:mysql://{database-server}/{database-name}:3306?user={username}&password={password}");
                Statement Stmt = c.createStatement();
                int count = Stmt.executeUpdate(cmd);
                if(count>0) {
                     System.out.println("count: " + count);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
        }That was some sample code for a MySQL database.
    Note that the applet can only contact the server that is was loaded from, so you might want to do a getCodeBase() or something like that to get the server address.
    Hope this is helpful.
