Lost photos through aperture

When I created a new folder on the bar and added all my photo folders in it after sorting them all out and doing post production. I saved a copy in. A website folder with this folder not in my pictures. When I deleted my trash with the photos from my pictures in it all my photos were deleted and everything from this other folder. Anybody have any idea why?

hi ok Ill re write.
I re organised all my photos in seperate folers, a folder for each client, within that did a fol.der for NEFs, JPGs, TIFF a final folder and then Website folder for ones going on the website.
I then did post production for the website phorts and re saved in there deleting the old ones.
Once this was all done I saved each folder in a folder called photography ready to go on a hard drive.
As saved in that folder deleted out of my pictures and enpied the trash.
Then when I went into the created photography folder every single picture was gone?

In the project where the images should be - is there a current search criteria that is blocking the images from beign shown? It's very eacy to press Control+Number to make the current project show only rated images. At default, the search field above the thumbnail strip should show "Unrated or Better".

Lion OS and Epson printers not printing photos through Aperture or CS4

Hi everyone,
I have done a search on the above topic but nothing obvious is coming up as a solution (ie...sorry if it has been done before)
It's driving me mad.
I have 2 epson printers, R300 and Stylus 1400.
They were both performing perfectly well before installation of osx lion.
They will both print word and pages documents perfectly, they will also print from pdf and screen dump.....so they are mechanically ok, (paper loaded correctly, loads of ink etc etc ) now, here is the issue.....
When I try to print a photo from either CS4 or Aperture the information seems to send to the printer, the printer icon jumps up and down and the text for the jobs queue says 'printing'....the printer 'shunts' as if engaging to print, doesn't do anything else and tells me a second later that the status is 'completed'.....but it hasn't printed anything!!! aaaaargh
I have been to the epson website and downloaded the latest drivers....same outcome.
I have even been on the live assistance thing on the epson website, no help at all, assistant didn't seem all that competent.
Anyone have/had a similar problem.
Words of one syllable if there is a fix, I am savvy but not expert.
Cheers
Rob

Hi nenavella,
One more thing you could try, the problem re occurred for me on a different printer and I found the reason for the fault by accident, a longish story but stick with it:
I had set up an unusual custom paper size so that I could print off passport photos for a client....for reasons I don't quite understand (probably my own stupidity!) that paper size became the default size for that printer...very rarely used...so any time I tried to print anything on that printer that wasn't passport photo size...it behaved exactly like my previous issue, made all the right noises etc etc but didn't print.
To cut a long story short: On that particular printer, every time I print anything I have to go to 'Page Setup' and change it to an appropriate size (A4, 6x4, A5 etc etc...anything but UK passport size of 35mm x 45mm) before I hit the print button.
It may be worth checking that your printer hasn't somehow 'obtained' an odd page set up parameter somewhere/somehow.
If it isn't this I hope you find the problem soon, I know how infuriating it can be.
Cheers
Robin

Lost photos in Aperture!

I recently imported images to Aperture from my camera (4 GB worth of photos), and after uploading, I deleted the pictures from the memory card in my camera, as I always do. But Aperture closed shortly after I added the new photos, and upon Aperture restarting, a window popped up saying something about an update (like the program had updated). But my pictures were gone! And not just the new ones I had added. Of the thousands of pictures I had stored in Aperture, only 20 are there now! It makes no sense. I can't find them anywhere. I have tried restoring the library, restarting my computer...I have searched everywhere on my computer that I know to look, and I cannot find the files anywhere! It's like thousands of pictures just disappeared. Anyone have any ideas of how I can get my pictures back?? I know that once something is on your computer it's almost impossible to completely remove it, but I have no idea where to locate these files....It says it is Aperture version 3.2.4, and I am running OS X version 10.6.8

The number one lesson here is: never delete anything without confirming that you have two copies elsewhere. I don't erase my cards until after I have uploaded to Aperture _and_ backed up the Aperture Library.
The first thing to do is make sure that Aperture is currently fully up-to-date and working.
The second thing to do is search your system for all Aperture Libraries. It may be that your Images are safe inside another Aperture Library. Use Spotlight to search for the Aperture Library file extension: ".aplibrary".
Open all of these and see if you find your missing Images.
Post back.
Good luck.

Lost data in Aperture - NOT recoverable through Time Machine!

I recently accidentally deleted photos in Aperture. Unfortunately, even though I backup regularly with Time Machine, I have come to find that Photos in Aperture libraries are non-recoverable.
Can anyone please help? Apple has no help topics for lost data.
Thanks in advance!

The photos in the library are recoverable. But you will likely have to restore the library and then navigate through the library to get the photos. You can get to them by right clicking the library and choosing "Show Package Contents" and then navigating the the project and again right clicking to do "show package contents" and then access the RAW files. It will be a bit tedious.
It's a lot easier if you're using referenced masters.

Sharing Photo Stream through Aperture 3

HI All;
I am trying to share some of my recent vacation photos with friends through Aperture 3 and can't seem to get it ?
I have checked on my Imac and in Aperture and all settings seem to be correct.
I go through the process in Aperture...
1) select photos
2) Hit: FIle - Share - Photo Stream
3) insert my own email address as a test (checked and it is correct)
4) give the photo stream a name
5) click okay
6) Photos are sent off
7) no email comes to my inbox with the link ?
Also, have checked in the Aperture Photos Stream and the new Photo Stream is there.
Anyone have thoughts as to why the email is not coming through ?
Thanks Mark
(Have watched a couple of you tube videos and followed the same proccess that worked for them online)

A few things:
First what is the version of the OS and Aperture? Second can't tell from your post but you do have Shared streams turned on in the Aperture preferences? And finally you also have it turned on in system preferences (under iCloud)?

Howto restore deleted files/photos from aperture (backup =time machine)

Hi there, I'm following up on a thread I posted under 'time-machine' discussion forum (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=12158758#12158758)
Problem: I incidentally deleted some photos that shouldn't have been deleted. I'm using 'time-machine' and wonder how can I restore those images?
As I recall, there is one file (as in database) for aperture that store all photos init. Is there a 'trick' to get yesterday's file and resurrect the lost photos?
Thanks for any pointers.

Adriana
are the files in the Aperture trash?
Do you use the vault feature of Aperture or just Time Machine?
If you only use Time Machine the files will be in there, get back to us on the first couple and if it is only Time Machine some one here can step you through how to retrieve the files.

Incorrect Photo Orientation - Aperture 3 to Apple TV 2

About a year ago I imported my iPhoto library of about 23,000 photos to Aperture 3. The iPhoto library had some small corruptions in it and I was hoping the more robust nature of Aperture 3 would fix these, but the import made the corruption issues significantly worse. Old Events from iPhoto (now Projects in Aperture 3) were randomly split up all over the place, duplicates of many photos appeared and many photos seemed to have lost the EXIF(?) data indicating which way photos were taken (landscape or portrait mode). As a result of the last problem many photos were on their side or upside down. Applecare were no use at all, claimed they had never heard of such a problem and had no idea how to solve these issues.
After laboriously fixing most of the problems by hand over the past year, all the photos in my Aperture 3 library (now around 25,000 photos), display the correct way up.
However, I still have one problem I can't fix. When Apple TV picks the photos up from Aperture (on my iMac), via my WiFi network, it displays around 20% of them on their sides rather than the correct way up. Rebooting everything multiple times hasn't fixed it. My guess is the Apple TV is reading the corrupted EXIF data associated with these photos, and ignoring their orientation as they appear (after manual correction), in Aperture.
Does anyone have a fix or any ideas please?

I believe that iTunes/Aperture keeps a cache for the photos shared with AppleTV. Those need to be updated. If you can figure out where the cache is and delete it, iTunes/Aperture should regenerate it in the correct orientation. Unfortunately I don't have the time now to figure out where it is.

Itunes 11 shows zero photos in Aperture and ApertureData.xml not being created in library

I've tried to do some trouble shooting of this problem. I've rebuilt permissions, I've repaired and rebuilt the Aperture library, I've made sure sharing previews is always for iLife and iWork, I've created a new library, switched to it and switched back and I can't get iTunes to see my albums and pictures from my iPhoto library when I try to sync through Aperture. What I have found is when I created the new temporary library and loaded one pic into it, a file in the package contents called ApertureData.xml is created, which isn't created in the iPhoto libary, it has AlbumData.xml. iTunes does recognize the temp library and photo. I deleted the AlbumData.xml, but it was just recreated. It seems Aperture is supposed to be creating a file that it isn't. Any help would be appreciated, I'm trying to migrate from iPhoto to using Aperture exclusively to manage photos and sync with devices. All software is up to date. Thanks.

in case anyone searches and finds this question, but importing by iphoto library to aperture into a new library, I fixed the problem. I do not know how to fix the original issue of the aperturedata.xml not being created in the origianl iphoto library.

Problems syncing iPad photos and Aperture

I think my iPod Photo database is corrupting for some reason as I keep getting intermittent problems syncing photos from Aperture across to my iPad.
Running Lion 10.7 on a Mac Mini with Aperture 3.1.3 and each time I get the error if I delete the iPod Photo folder it will do a full resync the next time I connect, but with over 5000 photos it takes some time.
Anyone had a similar problem or know why it might be doing it?
Thanks

From your words "syncing with my old iMac" it appears that you are now syncing to a different computer. What might work for directly imported photos (emailed, CCK, screen shots) is to connect your iPad to your new computer and right click on the iPad in the left part of iTunes and select the backup option. When that is complete then you right click and select transfer purchases. Then let iTunes erase the Ipad and replace it with the contents of iTunes on the new computer and then restore from backup
Photos synced to the iPad are not included in the backup and those will be lost unless you can get them from your original computer. However, there may be some third-part computer programs that can get the synced photos off the iPad.
For what are in backups see:

MobileMe galleries through Aperture 2.11

Problem: I create a MM gallery through Aperture 2.11 and upload 5 photos(plain .jpg). These show fine. I add 2 more(plain .jpg), these are also fine and now show 7. I edit a photo upload it(.jpg) with another unedited(plain .jpg) image and then the MM stops updating. Aperture shows that it does, it shows progress 5% 10% then finished, way too fast and nothing is changed. All images show in Aperture in the MM gallery link. Until I remove the "edited" copy from the MM link nothing new will get to the gallery even though it shows in Aperture and being synced. MM "support" says I have a "pro" app and to contact them. I am getting the run-around. Can anyone help?

With any photo you have included in a Web Gallery, if you re-edit that in the original project, that edit is automatically reflected in the gallery, and you only need to click on the upload symbol beside the name of the gallery to have it uploaded as changed.
The images that are selected for or added to a gallery are taken from the Master of the image, plus edits -- they will be JPEGS regardless of the Master format, so long as you have not selected to upload Masters. The JPEGS will either be Optimized JPEGs or Original Size JPEGs as you select for uploading the gallery.
Please explain how you have "added" a newly edited image to the gallery where that image was already included in previous efforts? Did you remove the image from the gallery album, and again drag it into the gallery? Also report whether stacked images are involved?

IPhoto keeps asking me to import 2 lost photos everytime I open it

iPhoto keeps asking me to import 2 lost photos everytime I open it,
allowing me to choose yes/no, yes - save to a new recovery, no - save in a flie directory
and in which the two photos are gone ages ago,
it's causing me so much troubles.
What can I do?

quit iPhoto and go to your iPhoto library and right click (control click) on it and select "show package contents" - look through it and find the folder named import (or importing) and drag it to the desktop - make NO other changes of any sort
Close that and launch iPhoto - you will be fine - you can then trash the import(ing) folder form the desktop (or open it to be sure it has no photos you want in it)

New Apple application PHOTOS vs APERTURE

Hello to everyone.
With the coming of the new application PHOTOS (that is not a professional one) will APPLE continue to support APERTURE? (I mean with new updates and new releases for the next MAC OS systems)
If not what is that best way to work?
Change from APERTURE to PHOTOS (loosing all the professional features).
Change from APERTURE to LIGHTROOM.
Remain with the double management of PHOTOS and APERTURE (in this case there is a way to take inly a library?)
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Alan Ford

Apple is simply making one piece of software that can run on multiple devices - and its geared toward take pictures with ipad or iphone and transfer through the cloud to your desk top sort of thing, They are defining a platform that cuts out desktop only users.
I use Photoshop - and am well aware that PHOTOS does not support PSD files (IPHOTO does or did if they dropped it after ILIFE09)
Apparently many of the features of PHOTOS are in options that have to be added to menu bar.
Biggest problem seems to be lack of easy to find instructions.
Below is some getting started pages.
Send feedback to apple on why you don't like the app.
