Move Masters from Project

I normal have only one project file for the year and an album for each shoot that I do, I accidently somehow imported my last batch of pictures into a new Project folder. How can move the 50+ loose pics from this projected folder into an album in my main project folder so I can delete this rogue project folder?
Thank you in advance

In Projects view, select the mistakenly-created Project, drag it on top of the intended Project, and drop it. The Projects will be (should be?) merged. What happens when you do this?
You might tag all the images in the mistakenly-created Project first, so that they are easy to filter for after the merge. Then you can quickly make a new Folder with those Images in it. (They might still be selected after the merge -- worth looking for.)
Note: it is generally recommended to not let your Projects get too big (say, greater than 1,000 Images). Aperture is loosely designed to handle "one shoot = one Project". So you might look for a different organizing method. Since "date" is baked in to every Image, and robust date filtering is built in to Aperture, there is no strong reason to organize you Library based strictly on date -- group by year is built into Project view, and sort by date is built into every view in Aperture. If you do want to organize you Library by date anyway, I suggest using Folders for year and month, and then putting your Projects (= shoot, or event) into one of those Folders.

  • Move WBS from Project to new Project

    Hi all
    Currently we have a high numer of deep structured Projects within SAP PS.
    The hierarchy looks like:
    Project Def
    - 1st level WBS
    -- 2nd level WBS
    -- 2nd level WBS
    --- 3rd level WBS
    ---- Activity
    ---- Activity
    --- 3rd level WBS
    ---- Activity
    -- 2nd level WBS
    --- Activity
    --- 3rd level WBS
    ---- Activity
    -- 2nd level WBS
    We now need to move all the 2nd level WBS elements to distinct projects, preferably without data loss and including all WBS-sub elements from 3rd level. The description of the WBS elements should be copied to the new projects description.
    Can someone describe the best-practice, manual way to achieve that?
    Is there an automated way to do that, maybe a Transaction code I currently miss?
    Is there a possibility to achieve it programmatically?
    BR

    Hi Michael,
    You cannot literally move these WBSe's to new projects. Instead you can create new projects with exactly the same structure and maintain the same descriptions. As far as data is concerned, you need to check the postings that have already happened in the old projects. There are different ways by which this data can be transferred to the new Project. You can either settle the costs from the old WBS to the new ones or simply post a journal entry against the new WBSe's. I would prefer the former one. This however depends on how far the project has progressed i.e. costs incurred, postings done etc. There are a lot of things to consider before doing what you intend to do.
    It would be good if you can involve your FICO guys in this exercise. It will be of help.

  • Can't MOVE images from one project to another: must not understand

    Greetings,
    I have two questions as a result of aperture not working the way that I have read on forums etc. and am wondering what i am doing wrong
    1) How do I MOVE images from project to project without duplicating masters or versions
    2) how do I delete versions
    All of my files are referenced.
    *1) moving from project to project*
    I have a blue folder called "NEFs." In it, I have a default project where I just dump all of my images called "00 dump." After I dump them, I organize into other projects. So, I do the following:
    • I create a new project called "2008 Thanksgiving" inside the NEFs blue folder making it a sibling to "00 dump"
    • I go back to "00 dump" select all the images that were shot over thanksgiving, and drag to the "2008 thanksgiving" folder. The images transfer fine, but when I go back to "00 dump" I see that the images have NOT actually moved, they are now sitting in both projects. How can this be? I thought that if I move images from project to project then I am actually moving the master, not replicating a version? That leads me to my next dilemma
    *2) how do I delete versions?*
    Now that I have replicated photos in my "2008 Thanksgiving" project, I want to delete them since I see them still sitting in "00 dump." I do the following:
    • select the "2008 Thanksgiving" project
    • select a number of images
    • press command + delete (this is the only way to delete a file as far as I can tell
    • popup comes up explaining that if I delete this file it will delete the master too and the reference file. So, that's exactly what it does.
    Deleting the referenced file is fine for many junk images, but in this case, I just want to delete the copied version that seems to be in two projects now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really love a full understanding of how this structure works.
    -i

    When you drag images and the drop target is an actual little yellow project box (not a folder, and album or anything else) the images move from one project to another, if your drop target is not the actual project but something else within another project all you do is cause the version to show up there, nothing is duplicated.
    To delete a version or versions selected just use command-delete. This gets rid of the actual version not just removes it from the current album view. If it happens to be the last version of that master it will get rid of the master as well.

  • Project Server 2010 PWA - attempting to move folders from root to document library subfolder does not work

    Hello all,
    We have an issue whereby attempting to move documents from the top level folder to a subfolder in a PWA site appears to work initially, but within a few minutes the documents are moved back to the top level folder with no error message.
    Uploading a document has the same effect.
    Permissions are granted at all levels in the document folder.
    Only some users seem to be affected.
    Only some project sites are affected.
    As an admin user I can successfully upload and move documents without issue.
    Any thoughts on what might cause this ?   I've actually never seen this before (and I have worked on a lot of SharePoint/Project Server deployments) so interested to know if anyone out there has a bright idea on how this might get fixed ?
    Many Thanks

    Hi,
    I understand you encountered the issue when save document from Office client application to SharePoint 2010 site.
    Is there any Proxy settings in networking side? Please bring up IE > Internet options > Connections > Lan settings. If so, please uncheck options in Proxy server and test the issue again.
    If you have deploy GPO to add SharePoint site into Trusted sites, please check if there is any other GP associated with trusted sites that might affect the issue. You could also remove it from Trusted sites via IE options and test the issue again.
    In addition, please provide more error message to help narrow down the issue, you could locate error information in Event log at least.

  • How do I move files from Event Library to Project Library?

    How do I move Files from Event Library to Project Library? I tried drop and drag, that didn't work. I am new to Apple. I have always had a windows box b4 this. If anyone can help, please do. Thanks
    Alain

    welcome argardner to the  boards..
    you're missing the concept of iM .. you don't move 'files' from Event to Project Library.. Events is the big box of all your imported clips; now, from that box of bricks, you drag the clips into all kind of projects.. you can 're-use' the same clip again'n again in many projects.. you can use all clips of all Events in one Project.. or all clips of one Event in two projects.. or..
    spend some time here:
    http://www.apple.com/ilife/tutorials/#imovie
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/iMovie08_GettingStarted.pdf
    the concept of Events & Projects, Clips and Libraries is at first glance very different to 'normal' editing apps, but you'll get convenient to it within minutes..

    How do I move Elements 8 projects (slide shows) from a Windows XP computer to new Windows 7 computer that also has Elements 8 on it so that the slides shows will work (Elements 8 works well on the Windows 7 computer & I have done several new slide show projects on it)?    I tried backup & restore without success.  I have also found the .psess files and copied them to the catalog in the new computer but when the sides shows are opened none of the images or music is there.  Only the text that I entered shows.  I have even tried to replicate the file paths from the XP computer to the new computer to see if that will help.

    UPDATE:  By a stroke of luck I happened to find a catalog link (a PSE8D file) in the 'My Catalog' file where the imported data was stored.  When I clicked on it to investigate what is was 'magically' all of my transferred projects appeared in Organizer.  Upon further investigation I found that the projects transferred from my XP computer were stored in a hidden catalog that had to be accessed through the Custom Location option in Catalog Manager (accessed by clicking File then Catalog then Custom Location).  No Windows or Elements search revealed this fact.  I am appreciative that I just got lucky.  The Adode/Photoshop company was absolutely of no help.  If fact to me their structure is designed to avoid contact with their customers unless you're buying a new product.  Their products have many good features (even though user unfriendly) and it's a shame they don't value their customers more once the sale is completed. 
    Bottom line:  All of the projects (sideshows) have been recovered and work in my new Windows 7 computer.  I hope my experience helps others. 

  • Move tracks from one project to another?

    I'd like to know if there's a way to move tracks (with or without inserts, automation and other stuff) from one project to another.
    I have a project containing a working mix of a song that I've spent many hours assembling. One of my bandmates sent me parts he tracked in GarageBand, two audio tracks and one track using a MIDI instrument. I imported the GB file into LE and made some edits. I'd like to bring those three tracks into my current mix.
    I understand that I can bounce each track out individually, then re-import them on new tracks in the mix project, but this means turning off all the inserts and EQ on each track and blah blah blah, it seems like there must be an easier way. Being able to directly move or import the tracks would preserve my editing flexibility in a way that bounces won't.
    Please, any suggestions may prove valuable.
    Thank you for your time.

    ...let me also re-emphasize: the GB2 file was imported and converted and tossed. I am trying to move tracks from one Logic Express project to another Logic Express project.
    Just to be perfectly clear.

  • Dragging movie clip from Event pane to Project pane

    When I drag a movie clip from Event to Project the top part of the clip is cut off. On body pictures I am losing people's heads! The movie clips play perfectly in the Event panel, so I know they were imported correctly.

    There are two things to look at.
    First, what is the aspect ratio of your project, and is it the same as your camera is shooting?
    If your camera is standard (4:3), set your project to 4:3. If your camera is wide-screen (16:9), set your project to 16:9. You can do this in FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES.
    Second, if your project contains a mix of 16:9 and 4:3, that is OK. You just pick the aspect ratio that you prefer. Then on each clip, go into the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool and select FIT or CROP.
    FIT will letterbox (black bars). CROP will cut off the top and bottom. You can decide which you prefer.

  • How do I move Final Cut Projects from internal to external?

    When moving a Project from my internal drive to an external I find that in User > Movies > Final Cut Projects the files still exist despite being moved in Final Cut Pro X.
    Again, all I'm looking to do is move ALL files from my internal SSD to an external RAID volume. Any ideas on how I can successfully do this?
    I've read the FCPX User Manual and the forum questions, but none address why project and event files unsuccessfully transfer. : (
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Graham

    Hello Tom,
    I moved the Project Files by command dragging inside of final cut pro X to the RAID volume.
    That didn't move any of the project files however, so I then manually moved them into the RAID volume and then relinked them.
    Now I'm left with this 65GB render files folder, which I assume loads the project data faster than if i did not have the render files. That's great but I'd like to be able to move them to the RAID volume without (needlessly) regenerating the files... what do you think?

  • Can you move events from one drive to another easily?

    I've just bought an external firewire drive to dedicate to my Sony HD camcorder material.
    I've only imported 30 mins or so of stuff onto the Mac's internal drive with iMovie '08, and would like to know if anyone's managed to easily copy 'events' from one drive to another to merge/split content.
    Is it just a case of copying event folders from the iMovie Events folder to the external drive, but if so do you have to specify a particular path?
    Similarly, can you just move the individual 'Projects' or archive to DVD etc as they will invariably take up lots of space for longer footage? Does the projects file just hold references to the assembled clips, in which case moving events would scupper things as I seem to have several movie files in there already though these may just be things I uploaded to .Mac to test out.
    This may all be a bit of trial and error. Hopefully clips are only references unlike the pretty huge but self-contained iMovie 6 HD project packages. This also raises issues about how to easily backup all your 'events'.
    AC

    Observation:
    Just imported 15mins of video from the Sony.
    When you click import you are asked which drive to save to.
    As well as the Mac's internal drive, all my attached USB drives which are formatted as Mac OS Extended (journaled) appear as targets to save to as well as teh Firewire drive.
    I selected the Firewire drive and don't recall an option to create a sub-folder. After import a new top level folder of iMovie Events was created, but no others.
    Presumably iMovie Projects/Shared folders only exist on the boot drive.
    I'm assuming that this structure will allow you to share movie Events between Macs using external drives.
    Again, an assumption but I suspect iMovie scans all available suitable hard drives and checks what content is available in top level iMovie Events folders for non-boot drives as well as this folder in the user's Movies folder.
    Rambling observations over for now.

  • Move files from one folder to another

    I am brand new to the application and have spent a ton of time googling various topics, but need some additional help. Seems easy enough, but I can't figure out how to do it...
    I would like to move pics from one folder to another. I can drag files from one folder to another, but they still reside in the original folder as well. Is there a way to cut and paste or a similar function to accomplish this move?
    Thanks.

    Hey, HawaiianHaole, as a multidecade Mac user, let me tell you, Aperture is about the worst example of Mac-iness one could imagine. Ironic, as it's (of course) made by Apple. But it is so inflexible, and insists so vociferously on making the user learn its peculiar interface conventions it reminds me most of something out of that famous company in Redmond.
    Want your Projects in an order you choose? Sorry! Want to arrange your windows so you can see your list of chat buddies while you're working in Aperture? Nope, can't do it! Aging eyes have trouble reading tiny grey type on a grey background? Hey buddy, it was your choice to grow old, don't blame us!
    But all is not lost. Aperture has gotten considerably better of late (versions up to 2.0 were fundamentally unusable in many ways) and will hopefully continue to improve. (ie Maybe they'll fix the printing thing...)
    Please don't make Aperture the basis for your judgement of the Mac OS. Many long time Mac users are having as much trouble with Aperture as you. Mac OSX has significantly reduced customizability but at the benefit of much improved stability and indeed usability. Old school Mac users had to learn to accept this, which most did. You'll hear people talk about the "Way of the Steve". As irksome as Aperture can be, you'll actually have a better time of it if you adopt the Way of the Steve, and accept that you can't do things the way you might want to. This is imho antithetical to the original Mac many of us knew and loved, but it's the way things are today, so we mostly shut up and take it. You can fight with your software all day, or just accept that there are ways you have to adopt and adapt to them.
    Welcome to the Bright Side, hope your Mac experience improves.

  • How do I move photos from one aperture library to another?

    How do I move photos from one library to another?
    Currently I Export to a new temporary library which I import to the other library but It feels kind of a hackish way to do it.
    Thanks

    That is the way it is set-up to be done (at least for Projects as Libraries).
    The only other option is to export master or version (depending on what you want) and then import to other library.

  • How can you move pages from one Muse site to another Muse site?

    I am trying to move pages from one Muse sitemap page to another Muse sitemap. This is so I can have multiple people working on creating hundreds of project profile pages and then transfer them into the master file that will be the final site.

    In this case your best bet would be to have the other people just provide content without the template and then you can just plug content in rather than doing a select all.
    You can open up both your site and their site at the same time in Muse to help the copying process.

    How do I move photos from imovie to iphoto?

    You cannot put photos in a trailer. They are designed for videos.
    However, there is a way around this.
    Go to the Project Library view. Select your Trailer. Now, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
    Now you can add photos.
