I have several libraries in Aperture, (9 libraries, 45,000 pictures .. !!) there a way to unite them all in a single library to retain all data?

If you have a drive that is large enough, you can open one library and import the other aperture libraries on after the other into your main library.
Use the command "File > Import > Library".
When prompted, if you want to "Add" or to "merge", select "Merge". This way, Aperture will try to avoid to import duplicates.
Merging can take a long time and needs plenty of free storage, sometimes more than the combined sizes of the libraries to be merged. The additional storage will be released,when the merge is done.

  • When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

    I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

    Thanks If anyone can help me.

    Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
    3. Install another app from the App Store
    If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
    Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

    Older Zens don't support AAC, which is the format iTunes uses for songs.
    You can convert from AAC to MP3, which every media player under the sun will play.  Here's a tutorial: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-12519_7-10096807-49.html

  • I have multiple macs in the house is there any way to get them all to sync

    Hi, I have 4 macs in my house and I was wandering whether there is a way to get them all to sync for all aspects; settings, software, iTunes. Everything. Does this involve getting a hard drive or server which they all run-off, if so (or even if this is not the case) what solutions are there and how much do they cost?
    Thank you

  • I have 2 itunes accounts on 2 different computers.  Is there a way to merge them so I don't have to buy the same song on both accounts?

    I have 2 different itunes accounts.  I have songs on the 2nd account that I want on the first but I don't want to have to buy them again.  Can I merge the accounts into one or is there a way to transfer the songs to the 2nd account?

    authorize iTunes on both machines for both iTunes accounts. exchange songs using e.g. home sharing.

  • I have many duplicate contacts on my iphone and want to delete them all at once and sync with my mac that has the contacts correct.  Is there a way to delete them all from my iphone?

    I have many duplicate contacts on my iphone and want to delete them all and start over by syncing to my mac's address book.  Is there a way to delete the contacts all at once?  I started icloud and the iphone caused duplicates there also. 

    I have exactly the same problem on my ipad. It is happening on only some contacts but, as with you, when I delete one of the contacts on the ipad, the second ipad contact and the contact on the imac are also deleted. This is even the case when I have differentiated the two contacts on the ipad and can see the one I have deleted on the ipad is not the same one as is then deleted on the imac.

    I have several pics of my new grandson throughout the year.  How do I combine them into one event

    You can drag and drop photos from one Event to another. Or you can flag them and use the Events: Add Flagged photos to Select Event.
    However, why not use an Album for the job?

  • Library content- I have several apple products... Music and pictures vary on all devices. How do you synchronize?

    Library content- I have several apple products... Music and pictures vary on all devices. How do I synchronize and retrieve older content.  Thanks

    Sync all devices to the same content in your iTunes library.
    Older content?  What kind?  I could type in 2 pages of how to get other things from place to place but won't unless you have more specific questions.

  • I've downloaded many books from the iTunes bookstore and several of them are missing 1 or more pages.  Is there a way to retrieve them?

    I've downloaded many books from the iTunes bookstore, but several have 1 or more missing pages.  Is there a way to retrieve them?

    Delete the problem books from your iTunes library, close and then reopen iTunes, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Books and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your books there.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists contact the iTunes Store support staff through the "Report a problem" links in your account history, or via Contact Support. In rare cases you may need to refer to the publisher.
