Multiple libraries, projects and reorganizing for the new year

I have used Aperture since 1.0 and really like it but the growing pains are still present - over time of use, I've ended up with multiple libraries [2 main ones and 2-3 little ones that probably can be safely archived]. I want to start fresh in the new year and have a new Library that is my main one, my only one in fact == is it possible/feasible/desireable to export projects from Library A and B and then import the ones i want into my 2007 Library the way my new organizing system will be? I mainly have images according to geography and people [e.g. people in locations versus family and friends]. Can I consolidate all my Libraries into one new one for use in the future ?? Will exporting each project and then importing into my new master Library work??

I've been thinking just a little about what features I would like the next rev of aperture to have. Though I haven't thought through the specifics, easier and more efficient use and management of multiple libraries, projects etc would be nice. Whole aperture projects referenced from multiple libraries or some such? (I said I hadn't thought it through!)
It's over a year since aperture came out, macworld is coming up, and I suspect that 2.0 will be released eventually some time in the future, perhaps with changes (maybe even improvements!) in library and project workflow.
So while I too am considering how to organize my own aperture materials I am currently holding off for bit just in case there might maybe possibly be (Conjecture Warning!!!) something new announced soon....

  • Is there a patch for Preview and iPhoto for the new Canon RAW format yet?

    I recently purchased a Canon 6D, and I was surprised to find out that my Preview and iPhoto does not read the new Canon RAW codec. It's been out for almost 7 or 8 months. All my software is current. I have a 2007 MacBook Pro with iOS 10.7.5 The software that Canon supplied is terribly slow when it comes to importing the CR2 files and exporting them as jpegs. iPhoto can import my Canon 40D CR2 photos and spit out the jpeg proofs super quick. So, does anyone know of any software updates that I may have overlooked regarding iPhoto or Preview. I can't upgrade to Mavericks, as my computer will not support it. I have a feeling I may be SOL, but thanks for any help!

    10.7.5 is not an iOS, it is a Mac OS X.  And no, it is not current.  10.9.3 is current.  As for your 6D, here's the RAW by operating system support:
    Mac OS X v10.6: Supported digital camera RAW formats
    OS X Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats- your operating system
    OS X Mountain Lion: Supported digital camera RAW formats10.8
    OS X Mavericks: Supported digital camera RAW formats10.9 support
    Turns out the 6D is supported for 10.7.  You need the RAW compatibility update 4.0.3:
    Digital Camera RAW Compatibility 4.03
    And the 40d is natively supported by 10.7.

  • TS2518 I opened Aperture and all my projects and albums for the last 4 months have gone. Where can I recover them from?

    I have lost the last 4 months of photos on Aperture and have no idea why. Can anyone tell me how to recover them? I don't find Mac software that intuitive after using MS for 30+ years.

    We will need to know more, to be able to help you to find and restore your images.
    What exactly do you mean by "lost 4 month of photos". Are earlier projects still visible in Aperture or are all your projects missing?
    What is your Aperture version and your MacOS X version?
    And what were the last action you did on your mac, before the photos went missing? Did you install something, update something, run some cleaning tools?
    Did you move your aperture library to a different location?
    Please tell us anything you think that might help to understand what happenend.
    Sometimes images appear to be missing, but are only hidden.
    Have you looked in Aperture's Trash? And the Trash on your Desktop?
    Have you looked at the searchfields in the browser and Inspector if they are cleared and are showing "All Items" or "Showing all"?
    Have you opened the correct  Aperture Library? If you type ".aplibrary" into the Spotlight searchfield in the upper right corner of your screen, do you see more than one Aperture library?

  • Merry C'mas and wishes for a new year :)

    Sometimes in the series of problems n late night stays to fix issues, we forget the basic things in life....enjoyment!!
    Humor in uniform:
    I once worked for a client for whom we implemented a HR module. They had all stone age systems for backups, n the SAP backup would not come in one tape! So the client asked us.....since we are not using FI/CO, SD, MM..etc and only using HR, cant we only take a HR backup of SAP to get the backup in one tape ?
    So, wish you all a merry c'mas and a very happy n prosperous new year. :P

    Merry Christmas and wish everyone a Great New Year 2008 !!
    Cheers

    Hi,
    You are facing strange problems with SDN :). May be connection at your end is too slow..
    For the problem:
    It seems you need a login password page. If this is your reuirement. Simple solution is create a page with two labels,two input fields, save and reset buttons. The login/pwd on submitted with validated by quering the database. Is your question - how to query the database ?
    May be you can create a javabean to do that (you can use jdbc for logic). Later import the JavaBean as JavaBeanModel in Web Dynpro. Map the model to context in the view and use the context.

  • Update for the new Daylight Savings Time on March 11, 2007

    Is there and update for the new Daylight Savings Time on March 11, 2007. the government changed it for this year. iCal won't let you modify the event.

    Macspacedog,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    As you have noticed, you cannot modify a subscribed calendar.
    Since your system has been updated to 10.4.8 it will recognize the change, but the current Holiday Calendar available through Apple-Mac OS X-iCal-Library has not yet been updated to reflect the change.
    If you want to subscribe to a different calendar, it appears that the iCalShare Holiday Calendar has been properly updated to reflect the correct Daylight Savings time.

  • Getting Ready 4 the New Year

    I would like to clean out my system as much as possible and get ride of all my songs and prepare for the upcoming year. How do i fit all of my productions on a data cd? and how do i burn them. I have never burned any data cd's before using a mac so i'm lost. Someone please give me some suggestions on what to do.
    What is max i can get on a data cd for buring songs?
    what is the best way to empty out your hard drive while protecting your last years productions.
    ??

    Ahh I do not think you can fit all of your songs on a data cd...
    You see that your projects are really a couple gigabytes and too big to fit on a cd. You can burn like a song or two onto a DVD, but you can not fit many songs on one DVD. If I were you, instead of burning them, I would just get an external HD, and copy the songs onto that...
    And to burn a data cd/dvd, you need to go to finder, create a new bern folder (go to file, new burn folder), copy everything you want to burn into the folder, then when you are done, click the burn button in the folder... and your done!

  • Can anybody explain what is support for ADF Project and to solve the Issues

    Hi,
    I am new to ADF and i am currently associated to ADF Support Project.
    Can anybody explain what is support for ADF Project and to solve the Issues when the ADF Project is in Live.
    we are getting the Tickets for the Issues.
    Thanks in advance.

    I agree with Timo.
    It depends on the size of the project, user base, technologies, etc. We use lot of technologies in fusion middleware stack. We get tickets in many areas.
    In your case, it could be anything like user training issues (user may not know how to use the some system features), browser issues like blank screen, bugs in code like JBO errors (failed to validate, another user has changed row, failed to lock the record, NullPointerException, IllegalArgumentException etc), business logic issues, page may not render properly, performance issues, partial commit issues, application server issues, authentication issues. If you use web services you might get web services related problems.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

    If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
    the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
    would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
    for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
    the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
    system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
    that system.
    Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
    the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
    Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
    to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
    even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
    If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!
