Just downloaded aperture 3. Wont open because i dont have iPhoto. why?

Do I really need iphoto for aperture 3 to run?? I just upgraded to mountain lion, didn't ever think i needed the newest iphoto...

Where is your Aperture library located? This error message sometimes means something differently. Is the library on a volume not formatted MacOS X extended, on a NAS, in a shared folder?
If your library loacation is o.k. (local volume, formatted MacOS X extended, not a shared folder), use the Aperture library First Aid tools to rebuild the Aperture library: see Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual
Also, you should be able to download iPhoto again from the AppStore, if iPhoto 9.xxx came preinstalled on your Mac, as described in the paragraph "Restoring iLife applications after Internet Restore of OS X Lion or OS X Mountain Lion" in this support article: Accept iLife: OS X: About OS X Recovery

"File cant be opened because you dont have permission to use it"

Im suddenly getting this message on all the photos stored in my computer: "File cant be opened because you dont have permission to use it" If I click on 'Get Info' for pics, the "Sharing and Permissions" doesnt open either. Im OS X 10.7.3 Help!

Repairing the permissions of a home folder in Lion is a complicated procedure. I don’t know of a simpler one that always works.
Launch the Terminal application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. If that doesn’t work, then in the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
Drag or copy – do not type – the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
chmod -R -N ~
You may see a few error messages about an “invalid argument” while the command is running. You can ignore those. If you get an error message with the words “Permission denied,” enter this:
sudo !!
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up.
Next, boot from your recovery partition by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the recovery desktop appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, enter “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

Reinstall them from your original install disks or your backup.

The folder cant be opened because you dont have permissions

This is referring to my attempt to access my external 1TB LAcie Drive
The only thing i can think of is that i have recently renamed the Drive on my dektop
It holds only data and no apps
Welcome advice or pointers to the resolution of problem

Update
Please ignore - me thinking i know more than i do
i simply shut down checked cables and it worked upon restart
a tip that i recently discovered and as a very familiar mac os user was surprised i didnt know and thus maybe others also forgot or didnt notice
- Restart is different to ShutDown
When you want a full system reboot you must shutdown not just restart
Cheers

just downloaded aperture 3.4 update for the app store and now it wont open please help!!

I've just downloaded 'Aperture' and I'm still unable to open iPhoto?

Hi, I have just downloaded 'Aperture' at a cost of £55.00! as I was unable to open up 'iphoto'.
I now have Apeture latest version available, 3.5.1.
I have 'iphoto 9.5.1'
When I click on iphoto, I get this message:
To open this Aperture library in iPhoto, it first needs to be upgraded with Aperture 3.3 or later. Quit iPhoto and then open your library in Aperture to upgrade it.
When I click on Apeture, and try to use 'iphoto' I get the same message?
can anyone help please.
Cheers, Mike

o.k. Mike, the iPhoto application and the Aperture application are, fine, your external drive is fine.
When I click on iphoto, I get this message:
To open this Aperture library in iPhoto, it first needs to be upgraded with Aperture 3.3 or later. Quit iPhoto and then open your library in Aperture to upgrade it.
Your iPhoto library is not fine. Where is the library stored, that iPhoto is trying to open?
My photo's are both on my harddrive and my external harddrive. My external harddrive is has only iphoto pictures on it.
I thought this means, that your iPhoto library is on the external drive?
I do not have a problem with my external harddrive.
It is very rarely attached to my computer, and only used when I want to search for a particular place we have been to.
So, do you have a second iPhoto library on your internal drive? Do you get the above error message only when your external drive is not attached?

Hi, I've just downloaded Aperture 3.2 and transfered all my iPhoto Library but now when I use the Aperture program it runs at the slowest speed possible and is almost impossible to work with. It is constantly processing why is this?

Hi, I've just downloaded Aperture 3.2 and transfered all my iPhoto Library but now when I use the Aperture program it runs at the slowest speed possible and is almost impossible to work with. It is constantly processing why is this?

You can click on the text that says 'processing' in the main windows and it will open (toggle) the Activity Window, (can also be accessed via the Window menu -> Show Activity.
It will tell you what Aperture is doing with more precision and perhaps even how many photos it still needs to process. It is generally best to wait until all that processing is done before you start working with the photos (well it is best to first turn of options what you dont want to use, perhaps Faces or Previews and then let it process the new photos).

Itunes wont open because of Data Execution Prevention?

Hello, ollieallen.
I am unsure what operating system you are running so I am going to include articles for Windows XP and Vista, 7 and 8. Completely uninstall all components of iTunes and then reinstall the program.

I've just downloaded Aperture 3 and two things happened

I've just downloaded Aperture 3 and two things happened 1.I imported only one album of 300 + images and duplicate images came over which I subsequently sent to trash. 2. All images, except for one, have disappeared from the album. Can anyone explain why this has happened and what can I do. Thanks. Patricia

Thanks Terence,
Yes, I guess I had inadvertently added something to the search box. When I clicked in it, all the images were there. So thanks for that.
If the duplicates that came in from iphoto during the import are iphoto previews, was I wrong to consign them to the trash? So far, I haven't emptied the trash. I would very much appreciate it if you would advice me further on this issue. I would also like to now import another album from iphoto, but I will wait until I hear from you in case there is something I should do in the process to avoid duplicates being imported at the same time, assuming that they shouldn't be.
Regards
Patricia

I need to know how to delete the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded it tonight and my computer doesn't have that little edit bar to work with so I can download the proper Adobe player and my internet has been screwed up ever since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I just want the old version of it back since I apparently can't download the Adobe stuff that is necessary to keep my computer safe from Hackers. It sure would have been nice to know there was an issue with the new Firefox Update BEFORE I uploaded it. I have Vista which is usually an issue with both Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run much of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

To download and install an app the iPod needs storage available equal to about three times the file download size.
If you sync from your iTunes library less storage available is required.
Does the app/iPod meet this?
