Nikon D700 RAW import shows only dotted boxes, not thumbnails

I am unable to see thumbnails of the RAW images on the memory card of my Nikon D700 when I import images into Aperture.
What I see during an import is a series of frames with a dashed or dotted border that represent the correct number of images on the card. I can select these boxes, but the selection is not indicated with any kind of highlighting, just with a number displayed on the import button. I can, however, import my selection, and once the images are imported, I can see thumbnails in the library.
If I shoot JPG images this is not a problem, only with the Nikon NEF files. I am using the Lossless Compressed format plus a normal quality jpg.
My look at other threads shows some people with D200s have been able to solve this, and they have mentioned fiddling with a USB setting on their camera. However, the D700 has no such setting.
Since Apple now supports the D700 in RAW mode, how can I get the thumbnails of the images in the camera's card to show up on screen during an import? It is a hassle not to be able to see which images I'm importing while I'm importing them.
Thanks!

Ibartram,
I am having the EXACT same problem as you. I have the new Olympus E520— which like the D700, was not suported by Aperutre until the recent upgrade. Like you I was happy to finally have my new camera supported by Aperture and like you, I cannot see thumbnails of my RAW images on my memory card when using the import function in Aperture.
As you have said: Everything is fine AFTER I import, but prior to import, when reading off my card, only empty dotted boxes.
Also, I cannot see the images in the finder either. Are you having this problem as well?
Do you connect your camera directly to Aperture or do you use a card reader? I use a card reader.
Please let me know if you find a solution to this problem. Or if there is any other information I can give you. It's not just a Nikon problem or a D700 problem. After reading your post my guess is that it's a problem with newer, previously unsupported cameras.
It's no good not being able to see which images I'm importing until after they're imported.

  • Photos not showing, only gray boxes

    so i opened up my iPhoto, and some of my pics aren't showing. they show when i click on them, but the like thumbnails aren't showing. only gray boxes. like the outline of the box is a dotted gray line.
    help?

    You can add a title to a pic in iPhoto - you do it - and everything else - in the iPhoto Window. However this does not rename the file. If you want to access the pics, the filename is irrelevant:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 Only*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Apple-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and 10.5* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    If yiu want to export a copy of a pic, using the Title as Filename, then use the File -> Export command. It’s one of the options in that dialogue.
    Regards
    TD

  • Purple and green blotches with Nikon D700 raws

    I'm getting some purple and green blotches (mostly purple) with Nikon D700 raws when using the "Camera Standard" profile. This happens a lot during sunset-ish shots. The problem goes away when I select the "Adobe Standard" the profile.
    I just tried ACR 6.3 RC and the problem still exists. is this a known issue?
    Would be happy to share a raw + screenshots if needed (currently on a relatively low bandwidth connection)

  • Why is my browser showing only http and not https

    Why is my browser showing only http and not https//

    Western (ISO 8859-1) is the default encoding in Firefox.<br />
    That web page doesn't specify an encoding and the server doesn't send one either, so the default in Firefox is used.<br />
    If you get those diamonds then you either have a wrong encoding set or there is a problem with the (Verdana) font that is used.

  • Paste image in box – Freehand only moves box, not image inside

    God bleeeees Freehand! I still stubbornly refuse to move to Illustrator, but...
    I'm now getting bugs on bugs - this has just started happening: I paste an image into an image box, but then when I move the box it's only the box that moves - the image stays in same place. This is making Freehand pretty much impossible to use.
    Any ideas? Heeeeeelp!

    It's not a bug. Contents of a clip path are controlled by the 'Contents' check box in the Transform panel.
    1. Open the transform panel.
    2. Select the move icon.
    3. Check the 'Contents' checkbox.
    Make sure that each transform function has the 'Contents' checked as you wish it to be treated.

  • File server 2008 R2 Multiple share folder , single user show only single folder , not show any other folder

    I've installed windows 2008 standard r2 server. 2. Configured a domain. 3. Joined 10 clients to the server. 4. Created shared folders on the sever restricting to users. (ex.USERNAME:system01 can access a shared folder:system01 only) 5. I need to give the
    below permissions only. Please let me know the permission combination. Read / write / modify - allow access Delete / cut and copy from server - deny access Basically elaborating  the current scenario. 1.Server has multiple shared folders where the users
    are asked to put in their data
    host name :system01 user logging in:system01 shared folder for the user in server:system01 so is for others also. 2.Example ,system01,system02,system03. Only user 'system01'
    will be able to access 'system01' shared folder so is others too. System01 show only single share folder at system 3.Basically to avoid all kind of confusion I have named host name of systems also the same way.

    Hi,
    When you grant users "read" permission, then copying is possible and if you grant users "modify" permissions, they can also have "cut" permissions. 
    The 'system01' share folder is created by user 'system01'? If so, you could grant "creator owner" permissions to configure users only can access their own folder.
    Best Regards,
    Mandy

  • Corrupted RAW files show in Bridge but not Photoshop?

    Hi,
    I have recovered some RAW files that were accidently deleted but most of them are corrupt in windows explorer (using recuva).  Adobe Bridge can see them but nothing else will open the files (or see them).  I really need to edit these files, any help would be appreciated.  I'm on win7 64 bit.  with adobe bridge cs 5.

    What type of RAW files are we talking about, NEF,CR2 or other?
    Bridge is just a flle browser, and RAW files are opened and edited in Adobe Camera Raw.  Do you just get a thumbnail, but it willl not open in ACR?
    Does ACR work with other RAW images that have not been corrupted.
    Do you have a backup (highly recommended) of these images somewhere?  Should be on seperate physical drive or on a DVD.

  • Nikon NEF raw files show up in Bridge as "Untagged RGB"

    I have a D700 and shoot in the AdobeRGB color space. However when I click on a picture in Bridge, the Metadata window shows "Untagged RGB". Why is Bridge showing inaccurate file information, and, I assume, not interpreting and displaying the picture with correct colors?

    Charles,
    Raw files don't have colorspaces so the "Untagged" is essentially correct in that case. You select the colorspace when the raw file is developed, such as in Adobe Camera Raw.
    Now, both Nikon and Canon allow colorspace to be selected in-camera and they will use this colorspace if Jpegs are being created.
    In the case of raw files from the camera, I believe that the PC/Mac software provided by both manufacturers (Capture NX2 for Nikon?) will pick up a special flag from the file to set the default colorspace for the developed raw file to what was selected in camera. I am not sure about this though. Adobe Camera Raw, however, ignores those flags if they exist. In ACR, it will default to the colorspace last used for raw developing.

  • Last  photos I imported show only titles, no photos. As I scroll down I see them appear

    The last roll of photos I imported don't display.  As I scroll down the page I see the bottoms of them but they disappear.  Only the titles & IMGP # displays.

    Thank you Terence Devlin.  I will save your advice in case it happens again.  I copied the photos from my backup folder and entered them into iPhoto then deleted the gray images shown from the first download.  Now the photos show.  Don't know what went wrong the first time.  They were there for a few days then disappeared.  Thanks for you response.

  • Since the last upgrade some emails and sites texts show only as boxes as if that particular font is now missing.

    Some important emails have come in and can't be read because all the letters look like boxes. This has never happened before. Some sites that I use are no longer legible because what appears to be the fonts are missing.

    That worked. The FixIt didn't apply to win7 but I found a manual description of how to do the same. Actually there were two descriptions and one mentioned that non-admin users may not show up as available logons after this. Glad I noticed so I could do the extra step of re-enabling those accounts. Thanks for the tip. I have no idea what put the security settings off from default in the first place.
    Here is a link for how to manually reset security settings in Win 7. It actually gives the same instructions as the next one for Vista but that one didn't say it was for win 7 so I didn't use it till I found this one

  • Raw files showing only as icons in bridge

    This is a recent problem for me.  The raw files in question are ".pef" files from a Pentax k100d that I've had for quite some time.
    I started having a problem with Bridge crashing on me.  In trying to solve that problem, I started Bridge by holding down the crtl key and choosing the three option to reset preferences and purge cache.  Since doing this, all my thumbnails have disappeared and I can't get them back.  I've read and found the appropriate locations for the camera raw plugins:
    I am running 64 bit Vista. I have CS4 and found that the latest version of Camera Raw that I could install was version 5.7.  I found the install instructions on the Adobe site.  As it told me to do, I downloaded the zip file for version 5.7 and extracted.  I moved the Camera Raw.8bi file from the top directory into C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats and moved the Camera Raw.8bi file from the Win64 folder into C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Plug-Ins\CS4\File Formats.
    I also found the 5.7 Camera Raw installer and ran that.  I am still having the same problem.
    I have spent the better part of two days googling and trying to figure out what I am doing wrong.
    I've tried moving all my cache files and letting them regenerate.  I've purged the cache several times.  Nothing I do works.
    I do notice that when I go to a directory of photos that I have not been to in a while, I see the thumbnail for a brief moment.  It quickly disappears and the flower icon appears.
    Do I need to re-install Bridge?  Do I have to uninstall first?  I can't do that separate from Photoshop can I?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I tried all of those options: Prefer Embedded, High Quality on Demand, Always High Quality with every combination of Generate 100% previews.  Still nothing
    I searched for all the instances of the camera raw file and it found 4 versions of the file 2 associated with CS4 and 2 associated with Photoshop Elements that I used a couple of years ago.

  • On Apple UK Store, the keyboards arent showing, only brown boxes.

    The other day i was looking at the keyboards coz mine is manky and i thought it would be nice to have a nice clean white keyboard but then i read somewhere there were problems with them so now im wondering if they are bringing out new ones and should i just wait?
    Seems its a sign? Last week it did show pics of the keyboards and now it doesnt!

    *"read somewhere there were problems with them"*
    There can be problems with any piece of electronics. We have 10 in our office and I have 2 at home, and none have a problem. just buy it and it will be fine.
    *"im wondering if they are bringing out new ones "*
    Nobody outside Apple knows anything about their unannounced products. But considering the latest keyboard was just released late last year the chances of a new model soon are slim to none.

  • Show ONLY my INBOX, not underlying folders

    How do I get one-click access to my INBOX, without the underlying folders?  Currently the hub shows all of my unread emails in the main view, including all of the unread emails that were automatically filed in other folders (due to Outlook rules I have set up).  In order to access my inbox only, I have to click on my email account, and then drop down to the Inbox, and that resets itself to the main view every time I leave it.
    I have rules set up in Outlook for a reason - I don't want to be bothered with less important items until I need to action them (sometimes 50 or more emails a day!).  The rules allow me to do this, but the Hub circumvents it and shows these emails to me anyway. I get why the Hub is there, and I get that many users will like this feature, but I need a way to have my INBOX ONLY preference stick, so I don't see these already-filed, but unread emails until I need to. 
    Any suggestions?? 
    Thanks!

    In your Settings >Accounts >your-email-account there is a setting for "Edit Email Folder Settings. Open that up and uncheck the folders you don't want to sync.
