IPhoto Books vs Aperture Books

What difference is there if any?

Different Templates and a whole lot more options for customising them in Aperture.

  • HT3412 I recently moved all my photos from iphoto to Aperture. I had several iphoto books and cards in my project file. When everything was moved to Aperture I can't find any of the books or card projects. Are they gone or can they be restored?

    1 - without specifics I have no idea how to help
    2 - the question was "are you trying to use them in iPhoto? " - it sounds like you are - to do so you will have to export them from Aperature and import into iPhoto
    3 - for information on how to use them in Aperature then you need to ask about how to use Aperature in the Aperature forum as it does not involve iPhoto

  • IPhoto Books What about Aperture Books In Australia

    Hello Everyone.
    Now iPhoto books are available in Australia, has anyone tried a book from Aperture ???
    Many Thanks

    I had Aperture 1.5.6 and they didn't work from there but I've just upgraded to Aperture 2.0 (an excellent upgrade, well worth it) and they do work from this version - books & prints only though.
    Cheers,

  • How do I get my iPhoto books into my Aperture Library?

    I have iPhoto '11 and i have some books that are not compleated yet and I wanted to finish them in my Aperture Library. They didn't import so I just said ok and went back to iPhotot to complete it and then I relized the iPhoto orgianals are in my Aperture Library. What do I do?

    There is nothing you can do. iPhoto books and sideshows aren't imported into Aperture. The internal differences between iPhoto and Aperture prevent this from being able to happen.
    What happens during the import of sideshows or books is what you have seen. The images in the iPhoto item are placed in an Aperture album that is named after the iPhoto item.

  • Iphoto 08 vs aperture book templates

    I too wanted to use the new book template from iphoto 08... But I can't get this accomplished... There should be an easy way to import / export (depending on which program) to use the new book templates from iphoto 08 into Aperture. This release of iphoto 08 without acknowleging us Aperture users is in my view a horrible mistake and the Apple executives should be embarrassed.

    One problem I am having is that if you browse the Aperture library using iPhoto 08 you can certainly import the previews but they are in fact not large enough/high quality enough to use for book or calendar printing. I use high qual previews in Aperture (9 out of 10) at large sizes and I still get the exclamation point when I import into iPhoto -- the only way I can get it to work properly is to export to the desktop the full-size versions, then import those into iPhoto. Not excatly seamless! Am I missing something that will make this work better? I mean, what is the point of sharing Previews if the Previews won't work well enough for printing?

  • Using iPhoto Book Themes in Aperture

    I would like to use the iPhoto book themes in Aperture.
    Anyway of importing them.
    Thanks, Paul.
    iMac Intel Core Duo 20", 2 GB RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Nikon Coolscan V ED, Nikon D200, Iomega MiniMax

    In iPhoto-08 I have 13 book themes and in Aperture 2.0.1 I have 8 beautiful themes, fully customizable that is. I am also able to make my own Custom Themes.
    The new themes is Formal and Modern Lines.
    You can find more info on this at:
    www.apple.com/aperture/features/100.html
    I think that the reason for more themes in iPhoto is that iPhoto is aimed at the consumer market and Aperture for the professional market. If I really would like to make a book with the Crayon- or the Water Color theme (would I ever?) I certainly would update preview for those images and then make the book in iPhoto.
    IMHO the book options has become more flexible in v2 although there are some issues yet and some features I really would like to see in an upcoming upgrade.

  • Importing iPhoto Books into Aperture

    How do I get the books I've created in IPhoto into Aperture?

    Short answer is you can't.
    When you import your iPhoto library into Aperture any books in iPhoto will be turned into an Album with all the pictures that were in the iPhoto books filmstrip view. You'll have to recreate the book in Aperture's book tool.

  • Edit iPhoto book in Aperture

    I have an iPhoto book I made prior to acquiring Aperture2. I would like to edit this book's photos in Aperture (i.e., using advanced editing features available in Aperture) and have the changes reflected in the book created with iPhoto. Is there a way to do that without having to re-create the entire book?
    Thanks in advance.

    No.

  • Looking for iPhoto book template for Aperture

    I created a photobook in iPhoto and now need to add a few things that iPhoto wont permit ie images in places that are not on the templates. Therefore, I am trying Aperture since it allows me to modify templates. So, I now need to recreate a template in Aperture that is the same as the one I used in iPhoto. To speed everything up, I am looking to see if I can install the templates from iPhoto. If so, that would save me lots of work. Actually, if I could only import the photobook from iPhoto, that would be even better!
    So, does anyone know where I can get the templates/themes that are in iPhoto and how do I install them in Aperture?

    That is not a possibility - but you can do a page layout in Aperture (or any other program) and print it to PDF using the send PDF to iPhoto option to send an option of it to iPhoto and then add it to the iPhoto book as a full page photo

  • Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    Can I send an iPhoto book to my parents as a PDF? I need their input before I order the ibook.

    You can create a PDF preview of your book, see this link:
    iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040
    The PDF will be too large to email to your parents - copy it to a USB stick or burn it as CD or DVD and send it as a letter.  Or upload it to a server for download, your Dropbox, etc.

  • IPhoto Book Print - Rejected

    Sirs
    Could you please help me with an issue that I currently have with iPhoto.
    As a Christmas Present for my 6 year old daughter, I have created an iPhoto book of our recent trip to EuroDisney. I completed the book and purchased it via the Apple Store in iPhoto.
    However, I have today received an email stating as follows:
    To Our Valued Apple Customer:
      It appears that when your order was submitted to Apple, an error caused the
      image file to be unreadable or unprintable. As a result, Apple is unable to
      process your order and you will not be charged. We recommend the following

      3. Make sure all applications are closed.

      5. While all other applications are closed, preview your print product as a

    I have checked the version of my MacBook - it is OS X 10.7 and I have checked the version of my iPhoto - it is 9.1.5. When selecting purchase in iPhoto, it is stating that I need to upgrade to 9.2.3. However, when I attempt to check for new updates in iPhoto itself, it is stating that my version is the latest version. Furthermore, checking for software updates via the Apple logo does not bring up any update for iPhoto nor does any updates in my Application Store.
    It seems as if I require an update but there are no ways in which I can update this.
    Could someone please advise / assist as I desperately want to get this book printed.
    Many Thanks
    Paul

    If you update your system to 10.7.5 with the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo) and OS X Lion 10.7.5 Supplemental Update updaters you can update your iPhoto version all the way to 9.4.2 thru the updaters availailable here: Apple - Support - Downloads-iPhoto 9.
    But that's no guarantee that will fix the problem. If the problem image appears OK in a PDF preview of the book it should, as Larry pointed out, print out OK.  If it doesn't look OK in the PDF preview file export it out of iPhoto, open in Preview and export as a new, JPEG file.  Import it back into iPhoto, add to the book and replace the problem file with the newly created one.  Then create a new PDF file of the book and check that photo.

  • 72dpi in pdf iphoto book preview

    Hi,
    I'm planning to have my first iphoto book printed by apple. BUT, as described here on the forum before, it is wise to first check the .pdf preview.
    I made an right-click --> save book as pdf... preview.
    When I take a look at the specs of the preview I get worried:
    11 x 8,5 inch
    792 x 612 px
    This means it is just 72 dpi!
    The source photo's are big and high in resolution (3307 x 2539 jpg 300 dpi 24 bit)
    Will the pdf file that will be send to apple be 72 dpi also? Cause that is an unacceptable resolution for printing.
    Can someone please advise?

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Where are you seeing this spec and how did you create the preview: iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing a book order in iPhoto or Aperture?
    The figure you posted is not px but pts which is points. If you change it to inches via the drop down menu you'll find that it is 8.5 x 11 inches.
    iPhoto creates PDF files for uploading and printing that are at 300 dpi.

  • How do you place the photo to be on the cover in iPhoto books?

    How do you place the photo to be on the cover in iPhoto books?  In try to make a book in iPhoto I find it impossible to choose a photo for the cover. I try to make a photo a key photo, i put it at the front of the selections, i give it the most stars but somehow another photo is selected and I can't change the selection.  Help.  Thank you. iPhoto 9.5.1

    You are welcome
    I hope your book will be great. Once you finish the book, make a preview and check it carefully, before uploading the book to Apple.
    Keep the preview for your records, until you receive the printed copy.

  • IPhoto book cover.. matt or glossy

    I have just received 4 iPhoto books.
    I am very pleased with the results but 2 of them have glossy covers (under the dust jacket) & 2 have matt covers.
    Can anyone explain why?
    I like the glossy better..

    good discussion for me thanks on book covers. I am waiting on books to arrive as part of a set and will be angry if they are different to the others with silver embossing on the cover. This is what sets apple product apart from other books, is the silver cove. Does the matt cover look cheap? I would like your oppinion thanks.
    Silver embossing is not available with iPhoto '09 - it is available only with iPhoto '08 and Aperture. Your iPhoto '09 book will have a laminated photo cover (I love it myself)

  • IPhoto book import/templates

    I upgraded to Aperture 3 when it was released and upgraded to Snow Leopard at the same time. I now need to reprint a book I created in iPhoto 08 and have just realized this wasn't imported to Aperture.
    In reading the discussion groups it appears that Aperture doesn't import the books and also doesn't have the same templates available nor can it import the iPhoto template.
    If anyone from Apple is monitoring this discussion, how about addressing this by enabling Aperture to import books that took a huge amount of effort to create!
    Who ever made the decision not to support this feature should be fired! I know I'm not the only person migrating to Aperture 3 and I'm sure this is something you would like more users to do. Therefore, Aperture 3 should be a superset of features, at least when it comes to these commonly used capabilities.
    If I had known in advance, there is no way I would have migrated.

    Sean, am having same problem, and am hoping that someone out there may have discovered a work-around? I haven't deleted iPhoto pix yet, so could still export them to Aperture if this is possible, although am starting to think it's not.
    If someone else is thinking of migrating, it may be useful to migrate, but store originals in iPhoto library (there's an option to keep them there when you import iPhoto library into Aperture). Then you'll still have access to them and won't double your photo memory space. And if you need to go back and reprint a book it'll be there.
    All future photo adds will be in your aperture library. Unfortunately this isnt' ideal, but until they allow us to "import a book" from iPhoto, it's the only way to keep that option to print again. This also applies to calendars/cards/etc. as far as I can tell...

  • Cannot order Iphoto Book

    So every time I try and order an IPHOTO book it freezes after it "assembles"- while it's uploading the photos OR it uploads all the photos and right at the end it says "Click Retry to upload the failed asset again or Cancel Order to cancel your Order. What would you like to do?" - I've retried like 3 times.
    So I was had OS X 10.5, bought snow leapord, upgraded to Mavericks, bought IPHOTO 11, then had to get the photo upgrader so I did.
    The PHOTO book was created when I had the old version of IPHOTO so I spent all last night redoing the whole book  (as in creating a new book and replacing the photos) and it is still not working.
    I've made sure the I have the correct country & everything I just have no idea what to do at this point. There are no errors popping up in the book.
    Can anyone help?

    Boot into Safe Mode,  Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode, and create a PDF preview file of your book according to this Apple document:  iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
    Be sure to proof read the PDF file for any errors, i.e. typos, photos or fonts not appearing, etc,  before ordering.  Once you're satisfied that there are no errors order your book while in Safe Mode.  Keep the PDF file for comparison to the printed copy when you receive it.
    If that fails to do the job try the following;
    Quit iPhoto.
    From the Finder menu bar, choose Go > Utilities to access your Utilities folder (or press Shift-Command-U).
    In your Utilities folder, open Keychain Access.
    Find the "NetServices" entry in your Keychain Access window.
    Select the "NetServices" entry and press the delete key.
    Reopen iPhoto and attempt to place your order again.
    You should be prompted to enter your account information if you deleted the Keychain entry successfully.
    After entering your account information, you should be able to complete your order.
