Most aperture photos not showing in media browser

I have Aperture 1.5 and I can view all of my albums from the media browser, but when I click on an album, most of the thumbnails are exclamation points and they wont drag into any pages documents. Some photos in the albums show up and they go into my documents just fine.
I have gone into aperture and selected ALL 13,508 photos and forced thumbnail regeneration, but I am still having the same problem.

Aperture photos not showing up in other apps

I just noticed that all my aperture photos arent showing up in other applications that provide an aperture hook. EXCEPT for the latest images that I have imported.
All my images are the and I can see the folders fine in other apps, but they show empty. I did have to do an archive and install lately so am sure that I had some files that didnt make it over..
How can I recreate my library in order to fix this?
am not missing anything in aperture, just the integration with other apps, I tried exporting and then importing my library but lost all the organization that i had done. so reverted
thanks.

I had updated the previews with no luck, I just restored my library from the vault and it is rebuilding everything now.
that worked! maybe update previews was different than a rebuild of previews, but i didnt see that option.
thanks

New Aperture photos not showing up in iLife browser

I recently upgraded from Aperture 2 to version 3. When I open the Media Browser in any of the iLife apps, I can see all the photos/projects which existed in Aperture prior to the upgrade, but any pictures I've added since do not show up.
I've tried all manner of repairing permissions, turning off face recognition, creating blank libraries, turning preview sharing off and on, but nothing seems to help.
Does anyone have a possible solution?

I had this problem, and what I actually did was a rebuild on the Aperture database which fixed the problem. I got it from Scott Bourne's link below. After rebuilding the Aperture database, I restarted iTunes and the Aperture libraries showed up with the correct count.

It’s been a while since I’ve talked about this but I recently received a question for the podcast that might be answered here on Photofocus.com.
If you use Aperture (II or III) and you have a large library or make lots and lots of changes to even a small library, the Aperture library can bog down or even become unstable.
This has something to do with the database and can lead to symptoms like pictures not showing up or slow scrolling to occasional thumbnail rendering and overall slower performance. I personally also believe it’s tied to a memory leak in the program. In any event, when this happens, rebuilding the Library is often the fix.
Before you rebuild your Library, back up everything to your Vault. Then, quit Aperture. Press and hold Option + Command and launch Aperture by double clicking on the application icon. Follow the prompts to start the rebuild.
It will take some time for the rebuild to be complete. I have my images stored in multiple Libraries of 10,000 image. Rebuild time is about 45 minutes on average.
At the end of the process, you should see snappier performance. This can also be a fix if things are just going haywire without reason.
When you are confident that you haven’t lost any images, back up this newly-rebuilt Library to your Vault and you’re finished.
I recommend that you do this every three months or so and more often if you are a heavy Aperture user or have very large Libraries.

Photos not showing in media viewer

Hi.. I am using iweb 09 to build my website.
However I cant view my photos that I have in Aperture, in the media viewer in iweb.
I only have the one Aperture project on my laptop, and all of the non-edited... and edited photos within that project don't show in the media viewer in iweb... So I cant drag the pictures I would like to include on my website from the media viewer.
I tried closing iweb and deleting the plist in my home folder but no difference. i un-stacked all the photos in Aperture to see if they would show up.. no luck either.
Can anyone suggest anything please... All my updates are up to speed..
Thanks..... Gerry

Gerry ~ Are the 40 all .CR2 files, or all .PSD files?
According to Wikipedia, RAW image files such as .CR2 +"fulfill the same role as negatives in film photography: that is, the negative is not directly usable as an image"+...

...Perhaps that's the reason media browsers don't see them. For suggestions on converting .CR2 files click HERE.

Iphoto and facebook - most recent photos not showing up in file upload!!

on iphoto, all the photos are fine and the most recent photos i import are in the recent import folder like they should be. i'm trying to upload a new profile picture to facebook but when i go to file upload and then click on iphoto to find the picture, it's not there, along with the rest of the recently imported photos. the most "recent photos" when i go to file upload are photos i imported from september 24, 2009 and i have imported a bunch of pictures after that date that aren't showing up when i go to file upload. i already tried rebuilding my library and all that but it didn't do anything. help?

I just started having this same problem. New events are not appearing in the media browser section of the file upload window. The last event to show up is from October 12th. I tried several different websites and browsers.
They are fine in iPhoto and the files show up in the "All Images" section of the Finder.

Photos not showing in media view but are in catalogue

In Elements 12 not all photos are showing in the standard ALL MEDIA view, but it says they are in the catalogue if I trey to import a sample of the missing photos. Most of my albums are blank too.
It was working fine yesterday but the problem has occurred today.

Hi,
Please check if the photos you are looking for are not hidden.
For this, go to:
View> Hidden Files > Show all files.
Thanks!!

ITunes & iPhoto on external drive not showing in Media Browser

I moved my iTunes and iPhoto libraries to a NAS device on separate hard drives. Independently they work and I can access them through their respective programs, HOWEVER, when I want to use them in Keynote, Pages, iMovie, etc. they don't show up in the media browser. I have a couple of questions...
1. Will the media browser work with these libraries on external sources?
2. Do I need to set up some sort of alias on my Mac HD to point the media browser to those libraries?
3. If so...how?
Hoping someone has the answer, or at least can point me in the right direction...

I am not sure if they will work off a NAS, but I don't see why not. (But iMovie Events will not work off a NAS)
See this post and focus in on the part about trashing the iApps plist. I would try to trash it and then open up iPhoto and iTunes to repopuplate it. Then try to see if the Media Browser works in iMovie. You should not need to trash the iMovie plist, but it would do no harm if you did.

Aperture 3 not available in media browser

I downloaded the trial version of Aperture 3 and bought a downloaded license to upgrade my Aperture 2 installation. However, Aperture no longer appears in the media browser in any application (and not just the images, Aperture isn't even an option, just iPhoto is there). I read online about iLife Support 9.0.4, but it doesn't appear for me in software update, and it isn't listed in the Apple Support Download page or on the iLife support page.
Does anyone have any idea how I can get Aperture back into the media browser?
Thanks

Add me to the list too. No more mediabrowser.
I am also wondering, in case of multiple libraries, which one does Aperture pick ?
The one that you last worked with ?
Maybe this is what is causing this. Since Aperture 3 is unmanageable slow on my (3 months old) MBP, I began splitting up my library into multiple libraries to see if it would help.
I'm still in the process of exporting so no idea yet on snappiness, but maybe there is a difference for the mediabrowser for people with only one library, or multiple libraries ?

Aperture photos not showing up in iPad sync window in iTunes

Many of my projects and albums show up as empty or only partially there when I select them to sync to my iPad in iTunes. All of the projects and albums are there but most of them appear as empty when I check them. I have tried several things including dumping the 'iPod cache' in the Pictures Library, deleting and then regenerating the previews, making sure the preferences are set properly to export, and quitting and restarting the applications. Usually the projects are empty but sometimes it shows maybe 6 or so out of the dozens of photos that are in that project. It's not a RAW file issue either since the projects imported from my iPhone also appear empty in the iTunes sync window. I have had no problem at all transferring my photos from my Canon 40D to my iPad 4 and then from the iPad to my Mac. But this has got me stumped. Any help would be most appreciated. TIA.

I had updated the previews with no luck, I just restored my library from the vault and it is rebuilding everything now.
that worked! maybe update previews was different than a rebuild of previews, but i didnt see that option.

Aperture library not showing up in upload browser

When I go to upload Aperture photos to the web, my Aperture library is not listed in the media browser. Only iPhoto and Photo Booth is there. I've had to go into Aperture and export the photos to upload them. This started to happen after I upgraded to Lion. Any suggestions?

Aperture did not show up in any other apps, but I found an discussion started by someone with the same issue, and the issue was resolved by creating a new library, then swicthing back to your original library. I tried this and it worked for me also. Here is the discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2338518?start=0&tstart=0

Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream.

Aperture is not showing all photos in photo stream. I have re-set photo stream from within the aperture app, but it only downloads a small fraction of my photo stream. Any ideas?

Sorry but you're wrong, as the article that you quoted pointed out
Since your Mac has more storage than your iOS devices, your photos automatically download and your Mac keeps every photo from your Photo Stream by default

Aperture is not showing up on iWeb or iMovie

My library in Aperture is not showing up on iWeb or iMovie. All that shows up is iPhoto which I dont have much on there so right now my temp fix is transferring the photos I need to iPhoto and then using but shouldnt Aperture integrate the same way.

but shouldnt Aperture integrate the same way.
It definitely should. Have you set Aperture to always share Previews with the iLife and iWorks Appications?
Aperture main menu -> Aperture -> Preferences -> The Previews Tab
Set this to "Share previews with iLife and iWorks", also to "New Projects automatically generate previews" and select a reasonable preview size, the size of your screen would be perfect.
If you already had sharing enabled, update the previews: Photos -> Update Previews
or Photos -> Delete Previews, and then "Update"
If this did not help, you may have a problem, that the Media Browser does not recognize your Library:
Create a new (temporary) Aperture Library: File -> Switch to Library -> Other/new
Then Quit Aperture, open Aperture again,
Switch to your old Library: File -> Switch to Library -> Your main Aperture Library
Quit Aperture again.
Hopefully the iApps now will show Aperture.
If not, maybe there are problems with your Preferences or the Library needs fixing: Then go thru the drill of the Trouble Shooting basics:

If this does not help, report back.
Good luck

Slideshow: why do certain photos not show?

slideshow: why do certain photos not show; they are properly referenced
Let me expand on this: I have 570 photos in a slide show and all are properly referenced in my library. In the slideshow window, I can see all the pics in the bottom box and when I run "preview slideshow", certain pictures don't appear in the top box whilst the curser moves across the picture in the bottom box. Likewise, if I run the full screen slideshow, that picture(s) does not appear (I have a blank screen); the next picture does show up, howerver... This happens with several dozen pictures, always the same, randomnley amongst the 570...

Hello Tony and thank you. I regenerated and rebuilt thumbnails; I deleted the slide show and rebuilt it; nothing works. Now, I noticed something weird. All pictures are in an Aperture project and are properly referenced as I said; all the pictures in this project come from a old iPhoto project where some of the pictures are in a "Modified" folder, others in an "Original" project; it is all the pictures in the "Original" project that don't show up in the slide show.... Do you have any idea what I should do?
