Is Viveza compatible with Aperture 3?

I have recently moved my digital world to a slightly bigger and faster iMac and have been experiencing some problems with Viveza. I had previously been using Viveza (v2.0.0.4), with Leopard OSX 10.5.8 and Aperture 2.1.4 with some good results. However, since upgrading to Aperture 3.1.3 and Snow Leopard OSX 10.6.8 I have been having problems. Has any body else found this? Mine seem to be, that after placing say six or so control points, the program just freezes and becomes totally unresponsive and the only way out is to force quit. I'm trying to nail this one, not sure if it is an Aperture problem, an OSX compatibility thing with Viveza?

The Intuos line tablets have a few unique feature advantages over the Bamboo line, but Aperture doesn't take advantage of any of those features.
Aperture WILL take advantage of the fact that tablets are "pressure sensitive" -- so if you're applying a brushed on adjustment. Say you're using the "burn" brush to darken an area -- a very light touch will apply a slight amount of "burn" but heavy pressure will apply a much stronger amount of "burn."
If you're buying a tablet *just* for Aperture, then save yourself a few bucks and buy a tablet in the Bamboo line. If you also need support for drawing & painting apps, then spring for the more expensive Intuous line.
(Emphasis added.)
This is mildly misleading. Aperture takes full advantage of all but two of the Intuos4's additional functions.
As I point out below, for these reasons I don't agree with Tim's recommendation.
The Intuos4 is, compared to the Bamboo Pen & Touch (all based on specs at Wacom's site):
2x more accurate
0.5x more responsive
2x more sensitive to pressure, and
2x higher in resolution
All of those are taken advantage of by Aperture. Additionally, the Intuos4 comes with the TouchRing and six ExpressKeys, all of which can be easily programmed to execute Aperture commands. (The Bamboo has 4 ExpressKeys and no TouchRing.) Also, the Intuos4 includes the fully programmable Radial Menu, which can be a workflow accelerator for Aperture. (This may be available on the Bamboo -- I just don't know.)
My recommendation is that, if your are regularly going to use a tablet for making Adjustments and using Aperture, get the Intuos4 Medium. It that is outside your budget, get the Intuos4 Small. If you are only going to occasionally use the tablet with Aperture (or only occasionally use Aperture), the Bamboo Pen & Touch may suffice.
Note, as well, that Wacom's software bundles often completely change the value of some of their products.

Nikon Coolpix P310 compatible with Aperture 3

I would like to purchase the Coolpix P310 but I read on line that its raw format is not compatible with Aperture 3.
Is that the very latest news on this or has this camera been added to those which are now compatible ?
If not, is there a way -- that is not too cumbersome or difficult -- to make the raw files from this camera compatible with Aperture 3.
Is there a download-fix from Aperture that would help with this ?
Looking forward to hearing from anyone who can assist. Many thanks ..
Don

Here is the latest list of supported cameras OS X Mountain Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats it does appear that the p310 is on the list. How long has the camera been released? Nixon's (and Canon's) usually get included fairly quickly so it might be include in the next one or two updates.
In the meantime there are a couple of things you could do.
If the camera has a RAW+JPG mode you could shoot in that and import both into Aperture with the JPG as master. Once the RAW format are supported you could switch over to using the RAW's as master.
You could shoot in the RAW &JPG mode and just import the JPG's and keep the RAW's in a folder on your HD. When the RAW's are supported you could import them then.
You could shoot just RAW and use Adobe's DNG converter to convert the RAW;s into DNG's and import those.
Which to use depends on a number of factors, hard to say which is best.

Is there a tablet that is compatible with aperture 3?

I have been looking for a tablet that would be compatible with aperture 3. I talked with someone that was familiar with macs and they didn't think there was one at all. I really don't want to use photoshop... I'm happy with aperture. Thanks guys!!

Is the Nikon GP-1 gps compatible with Aperture 3?

Is the Nikon GP-1 GPS compatible with Aperture 3?

"A standard GPS cannot do this, and so in many cases will take 1-2 minutes to get a precise location."
No, that's completely incorrect. Most modern GPS chipsets will lock onto 3-4 GPS signals within seconds unless you've taken it somewhere far from the last time it was powered up and it has to search from scratch because it has to build a new almanac and ephemeris.
You're also confused about which technology you're talking about. aGPS or Assisted GPS has nothing to do with triangulation. It can only help improve time-to-fix if the phone has an active data connection so that it can download data that will help the GPS get a fix faster. No internet, no faster TTF.
Cell tower triangulation is so inaccurate that lawyers know that if presented as evidence it can easily be challenged and thrown out in court cases.

Canon G-15 files compatible with Aperture 3.4.3 ?

I would like to get the Canon G-15 digital camera but I am concerned that the Raw and Jpg files will not be able to be read and processed by my
Aperture 3.4.3 photo program.
My Mac Air Book (11 inhces) is OSX - 10.7.5.
Do I have to upgrade my Aperture program in order for this G-15's photo files to work ? Or do I have to give up this idea about getting this new
camera (to replace my Canon 50D DSLR ?).
I hope to hear from someone soon. I am in Bangkok now and I want to buy this camera but I don't want any nasty surprises.
I looked on the Compatible List (with Canon) and I found only the G-12 and not this newer model.
I want to buy this camera soon for shooting over here so I look forward to hearing from any of you pros out there who could assist.
Many thanks. Dpon

If yur camera is listed here OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats it is supported.
The list for Mountain Lion appears to be the same. It is possible that the camera will be supported in a future update but there is no way to know for certain.

Nik Software Plug-Ins are not compatible with Aperture 3

After installing my upgrade to Aperture 3, I get a message when attempting to use one of my Nik Software editing plug-ins. The message says that the plug-ins are not 64-bit (they are 34-bit) and in order to run them, Aperture must close and reopen in 34-bit mode. What does this mean and how do I fix it?

Keli
In order to open Aperture in 32-bit mode by default you can right-click on the application icon, select "Get Info" and check the box marked "Open In 32-bit Mode" (or you can continue to run it by default in 64-bit mode and just get forced to re-open the app anytime you need to use plug-ins that can only run in 32-bit mode).
hope this helps!

Sony WX1 Videoformat not compatible with Aperture 3

Hi,
my daughters brandnew Sony WX1 Videofiles seem not to be accepted by Aperture.
Anyone an idea, what to do, may be there is a workaround ? Will iphoto work ?
The file format of Sony WX1 for HD Video is MPEG-4 Visual.
Thanks in advance,

Not every format is supported. What file suffix do these have? As for iPhoto, why not try and see?

Are image compression methods compatible with Aperture?

Hi,
I was wondering if I could use LZW compression on tiffs prior to importing into Aperture's library? If so, it would cut 8bit tiff file sizes in half.
thanks

LZW-compressed TIFFs are not a problem for Aperture. I've not tried ZIP compression, but it's pretty standard stuff.
Ian
P.S. It only cuts some file sizes in half...

How do I backorder Photobooks made with aperture

I've ordered two books a year ago and I want more items of the same books.
I found my order# etc.. but nobody seems to know how I can backorder my books.
Peter

Aperture does not support calendars or cards.
But if you have upgraded iPhoto to a version 9.4.x, compatible with Aperture 3.4.1, you can open your Aperture library in iPhoto and create the calendar there.

Compatable GPS units with Aperture 3

In the user manual for Aperture 3, there is a link for a list of compatable devices; http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs
There is no list at this link. Does anyone know where I can get this info? I'm looking to use a GPS for upcoming shoots and would like to know what is compatible with Aperture 3. Any help appreciated

Another AMOD user here - I posted a few times about this last week, but I'll borrow from that thread to talk about my experiences with the AMOD and Places.
Had a 3 week shoot in Argentina and decided to try out Aperture 3's new GPS location tagging. So I bought an AMOD 3080 logger and faithfully used it the entire trip. Here's my story, plus a few issues with Places.
First some notes on using the AMOD 3080 - at times it was hard to get to get it logging in Buenos Aires, I assume due to the building density blocking the satellite receptio. Sometimes took 20 minutes to start "flashing", meaning it had acquired the GPS signal and was logging, though it was much speedier out in rural areas.
Charging the three NiMH batteries every night was a bit of a hassle for my charger, which recharges by pairs (I logged about 12 hours a day, so the batteries were usually out of juice by the end of the day). I had a second set of extra batteries, so I would recharge 2 batteries one night and 4 the next. A couple of times I misplaced which of the three was the uncharged battery from the night before, so that was another stupid thing to have to worry about. But be sure to factor in another $30 for a NiMH charger into your total price for the AMOD (plus the weight of the chargers on the road). It might mean a more expensive unit, with a lighter and integrated built-in charger, could suddenly look better. FYI, after returning I found the following unit that charges each AAA battery independently, which would be a better way to go.
http://www.amazon.com/Crosse-Technology-BC-700-Battery-Charger/dp/B000RSOV50/ref =wlit_dpo?ie=UTF8&coliid=I38WY26GTFAAB0&colid=1JZG5Z0U956FB
But other than remembering to switch it on and off, I'd just throw the AMOD in my camera bag throughout the day. One nice thing is no fussy settings beyond on or off - it just pulls time (UTC) and location from the GPS ttransmissions - only option is to choose a 1 second or 5 second log interval.
I ended up with about 30 log tracks from the trip (everytime you switch on the unit, it adds a new track). This was more data than the 128 MB capacity, but I also was able to back up the AMOD to my NEXTODi Extreme 2700 units - I back up my images onto two different Extreme units every night before wiping my CF cards. Near the end I did a "move" onto the NEXTODi which copied the data over and then erased the AMOD.
Regarding the import of the GPS logs into Aperture, the import for the AMOD files is fast and painless. I did sych the cameras to UTC before I left (within half a second), as I thought there would be some sort of auto import. But after the logs are inside Aperture (you select/load them on a map), you have to choose the images you want to place on that particular log, then drop them onto the track at the corresponding time for the main image you have chosen. Even though I set my camera to Argentina time, when I imported my images into Aperture 3 they defaulted to US PST, my home time zone. So i had to readjust all photos to -5 hours, Argentina time, to match the GPS data. So to implement the correct placement, in this case I had to drag the selected photos around the GPS track on the map until it showed 5 hours 0 minutes time difference, then drop the photos onto the map.
Understanding this now, I suspect the Aperture team did it this way (all photos will be offset by the same time difference show when dropping) in case the camera is not set to the exact time used by satellites (UTC). But it still is a bit frustrating that I can only get a minute synch. Further, if you are in pone place for an extended time, you get a tangle of lines on your GPS track - finding the correct one wold be murder. Combined with the problem getting a signal in BsAs, I had to fuss with placing the images much more than I thought I would have to. I solved this by starting a group selection from an image that had a "cleaner" time to find onthe HPS path. Again, not a deal-breaker but a bit more hassle than i expected. All in all, I'd say I spent 5 or 6 hours getting the 7000 images on the correct tracks, at the correct times. Ths included some time for manually placing images that fell outside of the logs.

Having issues with Aperture while editing...Black Screen!

I'm having problems when editing with Aperture...For example:
-Picture goes black after applying an edit, then continues on to all other pictures untill I reboot Aperture
-Exposure goes out of whack after applying an edit
-Skin smoothing strocks are shown after being applied
These are just a few. They do not happen the entire time I am editing, but about 30 minutes in everytime i get on Aperture something goes wrong and i have to reboot. It becoming incedibly frustrating especially when i have delines to meet with clients.
I love using Aperture, but i can't afford for this to continue happeneing. I may have to consider using a different editing system if this problem contiues.
Please help!

I have 5 plug-ins that I never use...I need to delete them, but don't know how.
At least check, if the plug-ins need updating - look at the manufacturer's website, if they are compatible with Aperture 3.5 and Mavericks. (see: Aperture 3.4 and later: Some third-party plug-ins are no longer compatible)
To uninstall plug-ins open the folders
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/
(that is the user library in the Library folder in your Home folder)
and
/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/
(that is the in the Library folderat the top level of your MacintoshHD)
Quit Aperture. Remove any "Edit" or "Export" plug-in, that you do no longer need.
Your User Library may still be hidden. Open it from your "Home" folder:
Select the "Home" folder icon in the Finder's sidebar and press the key combination ⌘J to open the view options. Enable "Show Library Folder".
Then open the Home folder and open the Library folder inside and navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Plug-Ins/.
For the second location, the system library on your hard drive, simply open the "Library" folder after clicking and opening the HD icon.
After removing the plug-ins restart the system. Test, if removing the plug-ins will mitigate the problem.
If not, check, if the problem occurs for all your Aperture libraries. Create a new Test library and check, if the problem depends on the library.

Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV

Apple Support has confirmed that the preview function in Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV. Don't buy Aperture if you want the same resolution on Apple TV! Stick with iPhoto!!

Works fine here, but must note that only a single Aperture Library can be selected, and this is to the exclusion of the iPhoto Library.
Right-click on the Aperture Library and choose Show Package Contents. Look for the iPod Photo Cache folder, and open it. Is it populated by lots of subfolders, which in turn have content? What is the date that the iPod Photo Cache was last modified. You may not be able to check this now, having dumped Aperture, as you say.
This folder is the source of what iTunes will see for sharing. It probably can be removed, and then rebuilt by selecting what to Share. Or maybe just removing its contents, and rebuild the selections. But there is one per Aperture Library, and one in the iPhoto library, which is why only one source can be used to sync.

Got the email from Apple Aperture compatible with future versions of iOS? (Mac OS?)

Got the email from Apple about Aperture this morning. They had a huge omission: are they going to keep Aperture compatible with future iOS? If not, I want, at a minimum, a refund for what I paid for the app.

They had a huge omission: are they going to keep Aperture compatible with future iOS?
There will be no further development of Aperture. That much should be clear from the announcement, that Aperture will no longer be sold at the AppStore. You are lucky - you used the last chance to buy the best photos app ever Apple created. The new Photos is not intended to be used by professional photographers like Aperture was. And you will be able to use and enjoy it as long as you keep a compatible operating system on your Mac.

Where can I get a version of Aperture compatible with Snow Leopard?

I have Snow Leopard (10.6) on my iMAC and I did not upgrade to Lion as it is good enough for what I do with my iMAC.
Unfortunately, the Aperture version available in the App Store recommends MAC OS 1.7 or later.
Is there a previous version of Aperture, which is compatible with Snow Leopard (10.6), still available?
If so, where can I get it?
Thank you in advance to the Apple community.
Philippe

As keith alluded to if you stay with SL and get a version of Aperture that runs on it you will be locked into that. There will be no more updates for Aperture or the Raw Camera bundle.
So if that version of Aperture supports your camera and you have no plans to change cameras to something that is not supported in that version then you will be fine.
If you think you might be getting a new camera at some point then you might just want to bit the bullet and do the upgrades now.
regards
