ITunes 10 doesn't see my Aperture Library and I can't sync phots to iPhone4

I upgraded to iTunes 10, now when I plug in my iPad or iPhone to my MacPro iTunes tells me this device was sync'd with another photo library and should it delete the pictures to sync with photos from this computer. I said yes on my iPhone4 sync, it deleted all the photos on the phone then when I click to the Photo section it tells me there are 0 photos in my Aperture library!!!! So now I can't sync my photos as it believes they don't exist despite there being over 20,000 in Aperture!!! It sees my old iPhoto library no problem. How do I get iTunes to recognise my Aperture library to allow me to sync photos again?

thanks Tony,
I clicked on the Library and that did it .. (I never found the "switch libraries" menu item) but this worked great ...
but just to give a complete solution ... I was looking for a option to use 2 screens and decided to look in the Preferences file and at the top was an option to designate a library .. to point to one. I guess I needed to look a little harder... thanks for your time and help,
ana

Do as the screen shows - connect the iPhone to the computer you usually sync with and use
iTunes on that computer to restore the iPhone.

I installed Aperture on my new mac but it doesn't see my Aperture Library

is there a way to point the app to a previously created Library?
It exists on an external drive because it is too big for my internal hard drive but I can find no command or option to open an existing library... just import my 30,000 photos all over again... and they won't fit. I found a post that concerned merging 2 libraries and I had hoped that would be the solution but the menu items mentioned aren't available to me (I'm using Aperture 1.5). When I chose "File / Import --" my only option is to import a project not the library ...it stays grayed out.
Any ideas anyone?
thanks!

Add another e-mail account to your messages, so people could reach you on that e-mail from messages. As soon as you are online (if you have wifi only iPad) you are able to send and receive messages. i.e. your son can send you a messages from his iPhone addressing it to your (that additional) e-mail address.

When I try to sync my apps to itunes nothing appears in the left hand column and i can't sync or remove them...why?

When I try to sync my apps to itunes a pop up appears that says itunes will no longer sync apps to my ipod. Then it gives me an option to either keep my apps or remove them. No matter what i press nothing happens either way. None of my apps ever appear in the left-hand column either. Why is that ?

What about the answer to my other question:
Is this the computer you synced with last time?

My new iphone 5 is frozen, with the cord to computer symbol on the screen after failing to finish updating to ios 7. iTunes no longer sees the phone. I've tried rebooting the computer, rebooting the iPhone, but iTunes still doesn't see the iPhone.

If your computer doesn't see the phone when you plug it in, you may have to take it to an Apple Store.

The red exclamation mark indicates that itunes cannot find your files.
Are the music files still on your harddrive. Look n Finder
Username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
If the files are there then keep the option key pressed and open iTunes. A dialog box will open asking you to choose your library. Select Choose and then navigate to the Music/iTunes Folder and click OK

Aperture Library and Time Machine back up

I just did my first Time Machine back-up on an external HD, currently have no more space on my Mac's HD.
Can I delete all of my Aperture Library to make room for new projects and rest assured that these are backed-up on my external HD?
How do I look for these backed up files using time machine...I currently view all my pictures using Aperture, I do not have a single file exported...

To use your Time Machine backup with aperture, you need to restore the Aperture library from Time Machine.
A Time Machine backup is a great backup scheme and allows you to recover your files, if need be, but it is not an archive, that you can use instead of the backed-up files.
I just did my first Time Machine back-up on an external HD, currently have no more space on my Mac's HD.
Move your Aperture library to a second drive, before you delete the library from your Mac's HD. Otherwise you will not be able to useit with Aperture. Make sure the drive you use for your Aperture library and and other media is formatted for Mac, see this link: Format external drives to Mac OS Extended before using with Aperture
And include the new drive into your Time Machine backup, so it will be backed up as well.

Does anybody know if Windows 8 is causing a problem with iTunes? Many songs on my old iPod are now missing in my iTunes library and I can't find them anywhere. Also, I have a new iPod and am afraid of using it for fear of something else going wrong.

Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

I just downloaded the newest version of Itunes. I can't delete anything and I can't sync to my MP3 player. I tried deleting it and installing an earlier version of Itunes but it can't read the library. Please help.

With iTunes 11 on PCs the drop-down menus are hidden by default - control-B should get the menus to show
This screenshot is from a Mac, but it should be similar on a PC :

Show Aperture library and MULTIPLE aperture 3.0 libraries

In iPhoto'09 it is possible to File -> Show Aperture library. This seems to open the library most recently opened in Aperture 3.0. Is it possible to use "Show Aperture Library" and open a different library, if you have MULTIPLE aperture 3.0 libraries? If so, how? Thanks.

Thanks. I was afraid I might not be able to easily change this, but...
Which preference file are you referring to? I have several Macs on a home network with a NAS. What I am really trying to do is let other Macs on the network use their versions of iPhoto to browse an exported portion of my Aperture Library.
I am wondering... I can easily place an export of part of my Aperture 3 Library on the NAS. If I open that NAS Library in Aperture briefly to write the preference file. Then copy the path and preference file to the other Macs, before reverting Aperture back to its normal local Library (which is what I use). Would this:
1. Allow the other Macs on the network to find and browse the NAS Aperture Library Export?
2. Cause the non-Aperture Macs any problems. (They couldn't overwrite the Aperture preference file, as they do not have Aperture.)
3. Any other issues?
Thanks for your help.

Aperture Conversion - My wife is converting from iPhoto to Aperture due to large library ( 33,000 photos, 109GB). Performance-wise, is it better to convert to Aperture library and leave on the 250GB internal drive or convert and store externally?

You are welcome.
convert and store externally?
What versions of iPhoto and Aperture is your wife using? With both iPhoto 9.3 or later and Aperture 3.3 or later she simply could open her iPhoto library in Aperture and be done, since these versions are using a unified library format.

Aperture library and photos folder

Hi.
I have a file '' aperture library'' that is 40gb on my mac's hdd and a folder named my photos on an external hdd that is 80 gb.
Is it possible to move them all to one place to organise them better without losing my photos.
I have already organized with projects and i need to free space on my mac .
thank you

I have a file '' aperture library'' that is 40gb on my mac's hdd and a folder named my photos on an external hdd that is 80 gb.
Are your Aperture library and the folder "My Photos" on your external HD related in some way? Does this folder contain referenced originals, or are this photos that are not in your Aperture library?
You can simply drag your aperture library to an external drive, when you want it somewhere else. And if your folder "Photos" has nothing to do with Aperture, you can drag it in the Finder somewhere else as well. But id the folder "Photos" contains original image files that Aperture references, you need to use Aperture's "Relocate original" command to move the image files to a different place.
