Master images not available in Aperture 3

Hi,
I recently bought a 27" iMac. I moved all my data and apps from my 20" iMac.
All my image folders are present, and my photos are in there (Canon raw).
Aperture shows my photos in the correct library, but when I try to export them as jpgs, I get an error, something like "master images not locatable".
Anyone know how to fix this?
Cheers
Martin

"I assume in transferring my data to the new iMac, the hard drive name has changed or something."
Corrrectamundo! I'm guessing you are right.
The library is trying to find the masters at the old location. You need to use the "Relocate Masters" command, under "File".
Under "Photos" (left tab), select all images, then do the Relocate Masters. You should then get a listing of all photos that are disconnected from the masters. Now point to the location where they actually are and do a reconnection. You may have to do this for all top-level projects.

Master image not available?

after downloading my pics from a sd card, my photos sow that master image is not available. can someone help? i am a new mom and all the pictures are of my son. i have deleted them from the sd card. I am not fmiliar with aperture so sorry if this is a dumb question. i just really want to be able to export, print and actually have my photos.
thanks in advanced

missbeba, tell us more, please.
It is hard to guess, what might be wrong without more information.
First of all, what is your Aperture version and what is your MacOS X version?
my photos show that master image is not available
Where does Aperture expect your photos to be? You can see that, when you select one of the photos with the missing master/original and use the command "File > Locate Referenced Files".
This will open a panel, with the versions with missing master in the upper part, and to the right is a thumbnail of the selected image. Below the thumbnail is the file path the original file. What does it say? Are your missing photos still in that location?

Export/import of Project: Master Image Not Found? No Referenced Files

I am using Snow Leopard and latest Aperture. I just exported a project from my Macbook and imported it on my iMac. All 200 images indicate that the Master Image Not Found and have the yellow triangle with the exclamation point.
I have read about problems using Referenced files. These are not Referenced.
What am I missing? Is this not the preferred way to move projects from machine to machine?
Thanks for any help...

Tony -
Just to close the loop. I discovered that some new RAM in the MBP was not good (it was OK, then didn't turn on - after a near heart attack, I tried taking out the new RAM and it was fixed!). It may be that the project export was corrupted by the bad RAM. I also disconnected the firewire drive, so that may also have contributed (even though the drive was not directly involved in any of the transfers).
So I'm marking this 'Solved'.
Thanks for your interest and help!

Home Screen icon "image not available"

This is a weird one, and I couldn't find it addressed on the discussions.
All of my webclips on my home screen auto-created their own icons based on the webpages except for one.
In the case of "Pop Candy" from USA Today (http://blogs.usatoday.com/popcandy/) the icon is simply a long horizontal graphic that says "image not available."
Is anyone else getting this weird icon? Is this a USA Today server issue or an iPhone issue?

Popcandy is apparently set up to redirect any failed image call (in this case "apple-touch-icon.jpg") to a typepad generic "image not available" gif, which is what you're getting. What is interesting is that iPhone is not supposed to load a gif and is supposed to crop images.
Basically you've discovered a bug which will forever be known as the FUG Bug, the Fenlyn Unauthorized GIF Bug. Congratulations on your discovery.

Master image not found

Dear,
I am facing the following problem in Aperture. In only one of my many folders (and all the albums in that folder), all the pictures have a yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it ... when i try to openany of these pictures to make adjustments Aperture is showing a pop up box with the following message "The selected master image is either offline or not found. Please reconnect it and try again". When I then right click on that same picture and select "Locate referenced file" the system is showing a path to a Finder folder where the related file is not present.
I am puzzled ... if these pictures are not in my system how come I can still see them (though not adjust, print or export them) in Aperture. Is there another to retrace/restore them?
Thanks
Thibault

Image Not Found in Aperture

I just imported over 1,000 images into Aperture from a photo shoot. The first 680+ images imported fine. The rest appear as images in Aperture but when I try to make Adjustments I get the message "Image Not Found." I used "Show Package Contents" on the iPhoto Library and see that the first 680+ RAW files are located in the appropriate Masters folder. Apparently not all of the images were copied from the memory card; maybe I dismounted the CF card before all the processing was completed. I've tried repairing the database and the images are still not in the library. Ideally I would simply copy the missing RAW files into the Masters folder where they belong but it sounds manipulating files in the finder after using "Show Package Contents" is a bad thing to do. The missing files are located on the CF card, which I think is where the iPhoto library thinks they are located. I have since copied them to a folder on my hard disk.
My iPhoto library is located in the Pictures folder. I'm not using Referenced images but the badge image on the missing files indicates that "The referenced image’s master has not been found," a yellow triangle with a right arrow above it. Any suggestions for how to get the missing images into the iPhoto library?

The missing files are located on the CF card, which I think is where the iPhoto library thinks they are located. I have since copied them to a folder on my hard disk.
Then insert the card again, but do not import again.
Are the originals still reported as missing?
If not, select all images that are showing a problem and use the command "File > Consolidate Originals".
When prompted, select to "Copy", not "to move". This will write the originals into the Aperture library.

Moving images not stored in Aperture Library to Aperture Library

I have some images not stored in my Aperture Library that I would like to have stored in my Aperture Library without having to reimport. I have already made adjustments to them. I just realized that when I imported them I did not have the setting to put them in my Aperture Library selected.
What a day... : (
Thanks all.

The albums organization remains the same, simply select the images in the browser and go to File-Consolidate Master. That moves (or copy) the master file to the Library. The links to albums are updated automatically.

Editing contacts - photostream images not available

New problem on my Mac. When I go to Contacts and try to edit an image, none but the default images are available. There is a tab to acquire images from My Photostream, but this does not work. The program is unable to access the images. I am able to add photos easily using my iPhone and iPads though. I am using OS X Yosemite. Thanks!

User clicked the button "New" - field is not available for editing.

Image not available in catalog

Hello,
We have SRM MDM 5.5 P5 and we have uploaded photos in the record table. But images do not appear in the catalog "detail view". Instead we get the default "image not availble" red image.
Is special customizing/setting required to be able to watch images in catalogs?
Thanks in advance.
Will reward points.
Le Radis.

Hi ,
Did you create Data Groups for your images. I believe you have to create data groups in MDM and then import them accordingly.
Thanks !

OS4 background image not available for iPhone 3G??

Hey everyone, just installed iOS4 and it deleted all my contacts :((((
but I can't see how to use a background pic for the standard screen, like it was featured in the keynote video...is this feature not available for us lesser iPhone 3G users???

{quote:title=gdgmacguy wrote:}Has absolutely nothing to do with marketing policy, rather the particular hardware capability of the phone.{quote}
that is absolute bs. iPhone 3g can support it fine. Apple just doesn't want to give its 'old' customers any eyecandy, or rather, apple doesn't want to give anyone anything they ask for. Seriously, how long will it take so we can change the text bubbles from aweful silver and baby poop green?

Aperture Images not available for syncing

I just upgraded to iTunes 10.7 and Aperture 3.4. ITunes sees all the albums in Aperture, but only a handful of the photos in each album. I synced to my iPhone 4 with iTunes 10.6 yesterday with no problem. Trying to sync to iPhone 5. Any help?

To add to William Lloyd's advice:
You may have a problem with your Aperture library.
Have you tried the "Aperture Library First Aid Tools" and repaired or rebuilt the Library? See: Repairing and Rebuilding your User Library
Or the iPod Photo Cache is corrupted - then you need to delete it from your Aperture Library package: see this support article:
iTunes: Understanding the iPod Photo Cache folder

V15.master page overlay.master belltown.master all not available?

I am in the process of testing how well SharePoint 2013 will be customisable
I have created a publishing site and having looked at the available master page options (site settings - site master page settings) all i see is Seattle and Oslo.
is this normal? if not where or how to find this v15.master page?

Hi AG9,
Yes, it is normal.
In SharePoint 2010, the default master page was called v4.master (there’s logic in this name), in SharePoint 2013 RC it was called v15.master (there’s also logic in that name, but inconsistent with the previous version). In SharePoint 2013 RTM, it became
seattle.master. So, it is why you cannot find v15.master.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Wendy
