IPhoto import stacks vs master

I just picked up Aperture and imported my iPhoto library. Most of the images that I imported (~2000) show up in Aperture as a single image with all of the iphoto adjustments intact and I can view the original by pressing "m". A few of them (~150) are showing up with the original image and the adjusted version (tagged with "iPhoto edited") in a stack.
Does anyone know why these images are being stacked rather than displayed as a single image like the rest? Is there a way to merge the stacks to a single image (without deleting the edited versions and readjusting the original by hand)?
Thanks

Chris,
Welcome to the user-supported Aperture discussion group.
Most of the images that I imported (~2000) show up in Aperture as a single image with all of the iphoto adjustments intact and I can view the original by pressing "m". A few of them (~150) are showing up with the original image and the adjusted version (tagged with "iPhoto edited") in a stack.
That is curious. I thought that all of the iPhoto adjusted photos would show up as a stacked pair when imported into Aperture. Is there maybe some set of iPhoto adjustments that Aperture decided it could make to your original, and then a different set that Aperture decided it couldn't make? I.e., if it couldn't make the same adjustment, it would have to import the original and the edited from iPhoto.
If you check those ~150 photos, can you see if there is a common adjustment, and if that common adjustment is not made to the others?
Is there a way to merge the stacks to a single image (without deleting the edited versions and readjusting the original by hand)?
No. That seems to be a "private" function of Aperture. BTW, my previous comments notwithstanding, an Aperture adjustment *may not be exactly the same* as an iPhoto adjustment. You should experiment carefully with your idea if you decide to go that route.

New user here. Trying to import iPhoto 9.4.2 libraries into Aperture 3.4.3 as referenced files. When accessing File Import Library, it finds the iPhoto library just fine, but then imports it as Master files. No option that I can find to leave the photos

New user here. Trying to import iPhoto 9.4.2 libraries into Aperture 3.4.3 as referenced files. When accessing File>Import>Library, it finds the iPhoto library just fine, but then imports it as Master files. No option that I can find to leave the photos in place on the file system. All the literature says their should be an option to choose, but I never get that option. What?

All the literature says their should be an option to choose, but I never get that option.
That has been true for the previous Aperture versions. Now Aperture simply treats the original image files exactly as they are in the imported library. Referenced images will stay referenced, managed will be imported as managed. But you can always relocate the imported managed images afterwards by using "File > Relocate".

DI API to import fixed asset master data and acquisition.

Hi,
Environment : SAP B1 8.8 PL18 & Fixed Assets Add-on 880.236.00.18
Have been used to add fixed assets, and would like to perform using the API to import fixed asset master data and acquisition.
The commands to access the table of fixed assets related to the API that is available?
Thanks.

I have the same problem...
Is there anyone who have tried these things?

How to import Fixed Asset Master File

Hi all expert,
I used BAMasterDataImportFile to import the Fixed Asset. But the message as below appear :
"Import end;Number of successfully imported assets: 0;Number of processed assets:2"
After complete import the fixed asset master files still empty. May i know anybody can advise me for import fixed asset files?
Thank for help.

Hi Eric,
Please refer your error with the possible reasons below (from SAP notes):
Error message: "Import End; Number of imported assets:0; Number of processed asset:2"
Reason: Note that there is no error. It is usually because of the conflict of Depr. Start Date , Use Life and Remaining Life.
The following is a list of possible errors:
1. Fixed Asset in Production Mode -- Make sure Fixed Asset is in Transfer mode before importing.
2. The number of semicolons for each line is not 66 -- For each line, each field must be separated by a semicolon(, the number of separators( should be 66. Number( = 66.
3. Wrong Date Format DD-MM-YYYY or MM-DD-YYYY -- The correct date formats should be : YYYYMMDD, YYYY-MM-DD, YYYY.MM.DD or YYYY/MM/DD
4. Asset Class unavailable -- The asset class in your csv file does not exist in Fixed Assets; make sure the used asset classes are defined in Fixed Assets before importing.
5. Depr. Type unavailable -- The given depreciation type does not exist in Fixed Assets, make sure the used depreciation type is defined in Fixed Assets before importing.
6. Depr. Area unavailable -- You entered data for a depreciation area that does not exist. If there are only 2 depreciation areas in Fixed Assets do not enter data for area 3 or 4.
7. Depr. Area is inactive for asset class -- You entered data in the csv file for an area that is not active for the given class in Fixed Assets.
8. Life parameter is negative or the remaining life is greater than planned life -- All life parameters should be positive, the remaining life should be less than the planned life
Life Parameters(Depr. Start Date, Useful Life and Remaining Life) are mathematically incorrect for one of the areas in csv. Remaining life = Useful life - (the difference between the first date of import year and depreciation start date). Note that it is not the difference between import date(the date you import Fixed Asset Master Data) and depreciation start date. You must calculate the remaining life correctly. For example, you want to import an asset in 2005, you import it on 2005-09-01 ,then the first date of the import year is 2005-01-01, Depr. Start Date = 2003-06-01, Useful Life = 60 months, then
      Remaining Life = 60 - (2005-01-01 - 2003-06-01) = 60 - 19 = 41 months.
      The following calculation is wrong:
      Remaining Life = 60 - (2005-09-01 - 2003-06-01) = 60 - 27 = 33 months
Import Fixed Asset for the current fiscal year -- The fixed asset master data import function is designed for legacy data importing. We recommend you to import fixed asset master in the past years. If you insist on importing an asset for the current fiscal year, make sure the depreciation start date is the first date of current fiscal year and the Remaining Life is the same as the Useful Life.
Year Values -- the sum of the accumulated depreciation (planned, unplanned and special depreciation) in the csv file is greater than the acquistion and production costs.
Also, don't forget to change the fixed asset mode to transfer. Administration>System initialization>Company Details> Basic initialization tab.
Hope this helps.

How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library? It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library.

How do I get photos from the iPhoto import folder to the iPhoto library? It uploaded, but hung while deleting from my camera, so no imported photos are in the iPhoto library. I watched it upload about 400 photos, one by one. They're somewhere, but they don't appear in the iPhoto library. As iPhoto was deleting them from my camera, it got hung up, then a message came "you should eject before disconnecting a device." I hadn't touched the camera. The message came by itself. I couldn't get iPhoto to respond, so I disconnected the camera and did a Force Quit. Opening it back up, the pictures were gone. Can somebody help me?

What version of iPhoto are you running? Assuming it's iPhoto 9 or later Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Iphoto import creating and importing duplicates/ios8

I'm using iphoto 9.4.3 and my iphone 5s with ios8. Since septemberish (ios8 update), it's been double-importing all my pix on from my iphone - none are showing up as duplicates on the phone but import/iPhoto view shows and imports them all twice. All images come in as img_1234 and img_1234_2 for example.
Can't figure out why this is but it's a pain - I'm using third party software to scrub duplicates from the library after the fact but is anyone else having this problem?

I've got this same problem. Didn't see this thread before I posted mine (Re: iPhoto imports 2 of every photo - iPhone 6).
I've tried:
Hard restart iPhone
Updated iPhoto (9.6)
Updated OSX (10.10)
Updated iOS (8.1.1)
Nothing has worked; I get two of every photo and video imported into iPhoto.
Has anyone else solved this issue? It's not a huge problem; more like an annoyance.

IPhoto import Browser failure, after security update?

Hi, Anyone else had this problem?
iPhoto import Browser failure.
No Events or Albums show, although PhotoBooth is visible, error message 'Open iPhoto 5 or later to see photos...'
This used to work, but not since installing Security Update 2010-006 (1.0),
with "iTunes" (10.0.1) and JavaForMacOSX10.6Update3.
Using iPhoto '09 (8.1.2), iMovie '09 (8.0.6).
Heard mention that now only alpha-numeric characters are allowed for file names and titles, so started replacing "&", apostrophes, etc. But there are a LOT of photos to change!
Console shows:
[0x0-0x15015].com.apple.iPhoto[264]
MRMovieServer[273] <Error>: kCGErrorFailure
Tried repairing permissions, but got a warning about a SUID file has been modified and will not be repaired, (not sure if this is relevant).
Removed com.apple.iApps.plist and com.apple.iMovie8.plist, which then gave a slightly different view of the browser in iMovie.
Can no longer drag items from iPhoto either!
Any ideas of how to proceed (and remain sane)?

Hi,
I've had something like this, since October.
Firstly, In the Utilities folder, open Disk Utility, select the disk where the Applications are (Main hard disk) click First Aid, then "Repair Permissions". Leave it running with nothing else open.
When finished, open iMovie, click the photo browser icon, any luck?
Seen an Apple support doc 'Cannot see iPhoto in other Apps', basically you may be right about ampersands & apostrophes.
In iPhoto, look at all your smart album names for non-alpha-numeric characters, and replace or delete the possible culprits. I had lots of these, including brackets (which were not a problem until recently). Keep checking your smart albums to find others, such as these: !@£$%^&()[]{}'\"|~.
Quit iPhoto and all other iLife Apps, then in your home folder, Library, Preferences, move 'com.apple.iApps.plist' to the desktop (this will be recreated when you next open an iApp/iLife application, such as iPhoto).
You may need to remake the iPhoto AlbumData.xml file, after all that name editing. See later.
Open iMovie and click the photo browser icon, if you still get the message, rather than Albums and Events, Quit iMovie.
Open iPhoto, double check your source list for folders which you may have smart albums in, (click the triangle to the left of any folders that you've made to reveal their contents). Repeat the search and replace of special characters. I'd missed a few, hiding in folders.
Now would be a good time to remake the iPhoto 'AlbumData.xml' file.
Quit all applications, go to your Pictures folder, iPhoto Library, ctrl-click, 'Show package contents', drag 'AlbumData.xml' to the desktop.
Close the finder windows.
Open iPhoto, create a new album, then Quit, (this should remake the xml file).
Open iMovie again and click the photo browser icon. This is the point where I had success, I hope it works for you as well.
All the best, Ian

Problem iPhoto imports triplicates of my iPhone photos

Hello,
When i want to import my iPhone photos on my mba'2012, iPhoto wants to import 3 times each photo.
Instead of importing 1006 photos, iPhoto imports 3018 photos !! :-/
For example, for a IMG_1500.jpg, iPhoto imports IMG_1550.jpg, IMG_1500_2.jpg and IMG_1500_3.jpg. (same size for each photo)
Everything is fine in the Photos.app in my iPhone, i see the exact number of photos (1006).
HDR is OFF
So what the problem?
Thanks in advance.
For information:
iPhone 4S 5.1.1
MBA 2012
iPhoto 9.3.2
OS X Mountain Lion
(On OS X Lion, i have the same issue)

First, thanks to help me.
For your question, here a screenshot of Image Capture:
Always the same problem...
This means that there a problem with my iPhone ?

Png files are over each other in the iphoto import window

When i connect my iphone to the mac to import photos in iphoto, the png files are over each other in the iphoto import window. Jpegs are also showing up in the iphoto grid with new photos but each box contains 1 photo, which is normal. With png pictures, iphoto puts up to 3 pictures on top of each other in each box.
Anybody has seen this before?
Kind regards,
Jeff Dehaes

oops, sorry, re-installed iphoto and it works again, they weren't even png's just jpegs...
Problem solved.

Aperture iPhoto Import

I imported my iPhoto library into a trial version of Aperture (Aperture will manage the directory). iPhoto manages the photos by putting them in by year in the "Masters" directory, then by event name. I noticed that the Aperture iPhoto import placed all my photos into 2011 directory instead of the same file structure in iPhoto. Is there a way to get Aperture to manage my imported photos and place the photos in a file stucture by year?
I do not intend to monkey around with the iphoto or aperture library's, but I do want the photos stored in a fasion that I could move on to some other program if needed in the future.
Thanks Gary

None taken, I am just one of those that want to know how Aperture is handling my photos. My search in the manual and in this forum did not help entirely, until now. You are right it does not matter how Aperture handles the bundle as long as you want to continue to use Aperture. I thought it was strange that iPhoto handles it one way and Aperture handles it another. I like the way iPhoto places my photos in by year. It appears that Aperture will also do this but only for my pictures this day forward. My concern is for the future, and for something that may never happen, but I plan for it anyway. If I decide to make another change in the future, I would want to make sure at least the pictures are structured by year. I should be able to go into the Aperture bundle and copy the masters out if needed. I was hoping I could get the imported photos structure by year. I do like Aperture so far and will more than likely make the purchase.

IPhoto import - a way to import specific albums?

I was watching the instructional video DVD that came with aperture and have found it a very, very helpful tutorial in getting started. I am having a problem doing one of the things shown on it though. At the beginning of the second track, the video covers iPhoto import, and shows how you can import a specific album by Import > Files and choosing a specific album name within the iPhoto library. My iPhoto library, however, does not have any album names in it - only numbered folders. I'd like to be able to import my business photos only and not my personal photos into Aperture, or ideally both but with a separate aperture project for each photo session. But since the iPhoto hierarchy is just numbered folders, it is too confusing to find what i am trying to import. Do I have to export all my iPhoto albums separately into folders that I name individually, and then import those folders into Aperture?

You need to
1. Download the images to a folder on the desktop.
It may be possible to download an entire album at a time, but that's a question for a Picasa forum
2. Then import the folder to iPhoto.

IPhoto import to A3 - Faces is now Shoulders or Elbows??

.
After importing my iPhoto library, I noticed that my Faces are no longer Faces, but Elbows, Shoulders, Tummies, Etc......
Now, I can't see some of my Faces and it wants me to name Hands, Sky and Tummies?? Anyone else have this issue with your iPhoto import.
What I've tried so far:
1)I deleted everything and imported again (same issue).
2)I created a new Admin user, created a new A3 library and put it on a different drive, then imported my iPhoto library again (same issue)
3)The issue is happening to the same people each time.
4)I repaired Permissions from System Disk
5)I ran Disk Repair from System Disk
6)No....I did not wipe out my computer and do a fresh install of the OS. Why does everyone have to do this? And if this is done, if you port over all your programs and settings from Time Machine, aren't you just porting over all the same issues. So to keep from porting your issues, you have to painstakingly reinstall ALL your software? Sorry, but NO, that is just too much work. I'm not retired.....yet.
I did a search and couldn't find anyone with this issue.

I'm seeing the same thing with some of my photos. Certainly not all of them, though. What I've been doing is removing those shots from the grouping of a certain person, and ignoring them when it shows them to me as an unnamed face. It seems the offset within the photo got mangled, somehow, as the person in question is in the photos with this problem (I can tell by distinctive clothing, sometime). I've wondered if it might be related to cropped photos, with the face box position calculated from the origin of the original photo or the crop, and Aperture getting confused over which to use.
I haven't yet found the "not a face" and "add a face" method in Aperture, that iPhoto has, but I haven't really looked for it, yet, either.

IPhoto import does not preserve rotation

Just installed the trial version, and imported my library from iPhoto. I used the option to keep the files in their original location.
When I view the images in aperture, many of the images are incorrectly rotated. Note that they display correctly in iPhoto and in MacOS Preview, but Aperture got em wrong. How can I fix this without manually going in and re-rotating everything in Aperture?

For anyone who is still following this thread, here's a summary of findings, along with a workaround.
Problem: Images imported from iPhoto are upside down, subject to the following constraints:
1) Only images that had keywords "iPhoto Original"
2) Very old images from my old Nikon E990 were unaffected. Also unaffected were scanned images that were pulled in from my Coolscan V.
3) Only images that were oriented in "Portrait" were affected.
Workaround:
1) In the Library tab, select "iPhoto Library". (This library was created via the iPhoto Import process.
2) In the filter box, create a filter matching "all" the following criteria:
- Text includes iPhoto Original
- Aperture Orientation is Portrait
3) Select all images that are upside down and click the "rotate" tool twice to flip 'em.
Note: If you have many portrait images, you can further filter by camera since it appears that older devices were not impacted.

Iphoto imports some movies ok..but not all????

iPhoto imports everything but some movie clips I've taken come up as .mov files and others as (poor quality) jpgs?
Why? Whats going on?

It displays a thumbnail of a .jpg and not a .mov.
You click on it and you get an enlarged version, just a poor quality photo.
This only happens SOMETIMES.
One movie may be imported as a .mov (with the correct info on iphoto page); ie: double click gets you what you want.
The next one may not and is just the dodgy .jpg.
Any clues????
