Not all images from iPhoto came into Aperture

I ran an import from iPhoto and I think I am not seeing photos in some albums.
Is it possible this is due to my hiding the Album in iPhoto and if so can someone tell me if there is a good or a global way to unhide all Albums?
Also, can someone tell me if it is possible that I need to unhide all photos as well?
Are there other things I should make sure to do so that everything I can get to Aperture gets to Aperture?
Looking forward to working in this software but I have to get clear of iPhoto first.
Thanks.

I've been importing referrenced images into Aperture since it was launched. I am also irritated when I set the sort order to Date and as soon as the import starts it changes to Manual.
Are you saying that I have to go back to my hundreds of albums and set each one to be sorted by Date in order for a new import into a new album to be imported already sorted by Date?
                                        Additional trivial complaints follow:
I never import from the camera or the SD card. I move my images onto an external HD where they are arranged by date. The files and the folders are set to sort by date on my HD. Why not follow that protocol when importing?
It was bad enough when v 2.0 came out and decided during the update and "conversion" that my method of sorting and displaying my images which were Year = Project, Month = Folder, Day = folder was incorrect.. Everything was sorted by date because the names of the Project - Folder - folder were all labeled by date : year - month - day. Everything was messed up when Aperture decided I was using the wrong order of storage. So Aperture, without asking, changed the way my images were stored and sorted. It took me weeks to convert them so they would sort & display the way I wanted.

  • Importing Images from iPhoto 11 into Elements 12 Organizer

    A friend is having lots of trouble trying to move his images from iPhoto 11 into the Elements Organizer, version 12.
    Someone tried to do it for him and he has hundreds of folders in the organizer that don't make any sense and often have only one image in them.
    To help him I would like to do two things:
    1.  How can we delete the entire import and start over?
    2.  What is the correct way to move these images into the elements organizer?
    Thanks for your help.
    Mary Lou
    PS:  It occurs to me that perhaps he needs to export them to his hard drive and then import then into the Organizer.  Might this be correct? If it is, he will still need to get rid of all the folder there now.

    To anwser the two questions you asked-
    1.  How can we delete the entire import and start over? : You may select all media in Elements Organizer grid (which he imported from iPhoto) and hit Delete key
    2.  What is the correct way to move these images into the elements organizer? : The correct way is what he already did. Actually the folder naming convention is same as that of iPhoto. If you see the package contents of iPhoto Library, these folders can be seen there as well. When importing in Elements Organizer, it creates a copy of the iPhoto folder structure and then imports in the catalog.
    Thanks

  • Since I downloaded the latest PSE12 update, when I download images from my camera into Organizer on my iMac, the application freezes.

    Since I installed the latest PSE12 update, when I download images from my camera into Organizer on my iMac, the application freezes.  If I "force quit" then it seems to download them, but will do nothing else, including verifying and deleting the images from my camera.  It worked fine prior to the update.

    Dear Steve--
        You are the man--a true Apple genius. Your suggestion worked.
        Thanks you so much.

  • When exporting images from iPhoto library to Aperture 3 library the highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue.  This happen to all images in the Aperture 3 library, why?

    For some reason all the images in Aperture 3 library have had their highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue.  I can correct them one at a time with contrast control.  This just happen on its on after I uploaded MOuntain Lion.  Now when I go to transfer images from iPhoto this happens.  The images are all right in iPhoto but this is not the case with Apeerture.  I have 15,000 images in Aperture 3 and I can't afford the time to correct them one at a time.  What is it that I did to cause this problem?

    You have "Highlight Hot and Cold Areas" turned on.
    Toggle this on/off from the View menu.
    Thresholds are set at "Aperture➞Preferences➞Advanced".  (I have mine set to 100% ~ it's not clear what the scale is.)

  • How do I download images from a camera into Photoshop Elements 7?

    Previously I've  downloaded digital images directly from my camera into Photoshop Elements 7.0  In trying to do that today, I go to "File", choose "Get pictures from Camera", then see a "source" box, with an instruction to "Get Pictures from:" and offers a "source" box for choosing.  The single "source" listed is my printer, not my camera!  Am I doing something wrong? Is Photoshop defective?
    Please help me out.
    Gene F.

    Hi Gene
    Yes Elements is defective.
    There are known bugs with the photo downloader, notably if you run the program on a net book or laptop with minimum screen resolution.
    Go to the control panel and check dpi scaling under Appearance or Display.
    It’s not uncommon to see a setting of 125% or higher to improve screen readability but PSE9 requires a dpi of 96 or 100%
    Whilst the Editor Menu will appear at 120% the Organizer Menu (and the advanced button in downloader) will not.
    Try a setting of 115% or 116% otherwise 100%. A common display resolution, notably for laptops and netbooks is 1024 x 768 but PSE9 requires a screen height of 800 for full functionality.

  • How to import selected images from iPhoto 11 into Elements 9?

    How do I import selected images or events from iPhoto 11 into albums in Elements 9 Organizer?  I don't want all my thousands of images in Elements.  Both iPhoto and Elements 9 are updated.

    I don't use iPhoto much at all, but you can set it to use PSE (or any other real image editing app) to edit the images you store in it. Check the iPhoto Prefs (command comma) and look at the General tab. Select PSE or any other app in the "Edit photo:" pop-up menu. That way you can still keep iPhoto for storage/filing and PSE for editing. Hope that helps.

  • How do I remove all images from my Camera Roll?

    I connect my phone to an iMac and I cannot find an option to view and delete all of the Camera Roll images that have already been imported over many months.  There are 1,500 images in the camera roll and I want to remove them all. 
    I realize that you can 'delete images from device' after you import new photos into iPhoto.  These are older images that I don't want to delete one by one.
    THANK YOU FOR THE HELP!

    Open Photos, press the arrow button in the top right corner, tap all the photos you want to delete and press the delete button at the bottom.  (You still have to tap all of them; there's no "delete all" button.)

  • Lightroom 4 would not import images from my camera

    I have been importing and editing photos from a Canon Powershot S3-IS and never had a problem until today. This is the first time I've tried it with the latest upgrade to lightroom.
    I first tried importing from my camera memory card slot. Lightroom froze. Then I tried using my card reader and inserting that in the USB slot. Lightroom froze. I tried to connect the camera directly to the computer with the USB cord. Lightroom told me that it could not import the files. 
    I tried importing the images to my computer and then from my hard drive copying them into Lightroom. That worked.
    Is the camera too old to use with the latest update from Lightroom. I would think a jpg. file would be pretty standard.
    Any ideas on how to import to Lightroom without the extra step?

    Perhaps there is a problem with the camera card. But I still believe there is a hardware problem somewhere.
    I can think of hardware problems that can cause this to happen, but I cannot think of any software reasons why LR won't read a JPG, except when it is on a hardd isk.

  • Is there an app that lets me delete all images from the camera roll at once?

    It is unbelievably ******** that apple doesn't offer an intuitive way of selecting all photos in the camera roll to facilitate deleting them. Is there an app that provides this funtionality?
    Think about how common the task of deleting images can be... I take multiple pictures of a moment, object, scene etc because I know the focus will be wrong on a few and the colors or lighting will be different even for photos taken consecutively within a short period of time (because of differences in how the camera is held and other constantly changing variables.) I only want to keep one of the many photos I take and don't want to waste storage on the other bad pictures. Additionally I would prefer to not have them lingering around such that they can be forgotten and then inadvertantly shared or whatever.
    If Apple won't do the right thing and add this functionality then I assume someone else has written an app and fixed it for them...so is my intution correct? And if so what is the name of this app?

    The iPhoto app provides the capability to delete all the photos in the Camera Roll.

  • I am trying to import my photos from iphoto 11   into Aperture v3.0

    I am trying to import my photos from iphoto 11 v9.4.3  into Aperture v3.0. When I select import I get a message saying Aperture cannot import libraries from version earlier that iphoto 7.1.5 and tells me to upgrade to a lter version of iphoto. Advice ?

    I am on MAC OS X Version 10.8.5
    Is Aperture 3.0 still correct or have you upgraded to Aperture 3.4.5? Only Aperture 3.4.5 can import iPhoto 9.4.3 libraries.
    As I said above, you can download the updater for Aperture here:
    Use this link:  Aperture 3.4.5

  • I just bought a Nikon D610  light room 4.4 will not open images from my camera help!

    In a market economy people get paid for their work via companies who charge for their products.  Adobe employs people who are working all the time, and therefore chooses to require pay-for upgrades periodically to generate more revenue.  The reason they switched to the cloud was to even out their revenue stream even more.  You can pay US$10/month and get the current versions of LR and PS as long as you keep paying.
    Just because many people are upset when they realize they'll have to spend more money for software because they got a new camera doesn't make the producer of the software bad or mean that the feelings are justified and it's someone else's fault.
    What should happen differently: that society be communist and all software be produced by and doled out from the government so political decisions govern what is available and who gets it, or a more socialist society where retired workers get more things for free or at reduced cost due to they're not working anymore, or what is your specific idea for what should be changed?
    As far as your crumbs and loaf analogy, Adobe is a publically-traded, for-profit company.  If people are getting rich from gouging seniors then you should have purchased stock a long time ago and get a piece of those supposedly extraordinary profits as dividends for yourself and you can vote in the shareholder meetings to give more software to whatever groups you deem more worthy.  And if you're across a border and things are much more expensive due to government policies or taxes and if you're a citizen of that society and organize and get people to vote differently and change the system.
    If you're coming here for solutions about how work with new camera raws in older software keep your question to that.  If you're wanting people to agree that you're justified in being upset by complaining that Adobe is bad then you've probably come to the wrong place.

  • Moving from iPhoto 11' to Aperture 3

    OK everyone, I know this has probably been asked many times before, but after searching previous discussions, I have not been able to find a more recent answer. I want to make sure I am doing this right from to get-go.
    Basically, I would like to make the move from iPhoto 11' to Aperture 3. My biggest concern is duplication of images. I would like to import all images from iPhoto excluding any edits (essentially just masters) and begin using Aperture 3 for all my photo needs. From what I can tell, the easiest way to import would be to go to File > Import > select iPhoto Library. This then would ask me to select to leave them in their current location, or import them to the Aperture Library. If my goal is to get away from iPhoto, would it be best to import them in to the Aperture Library or leave them in their current location? If I chose import to Aperture Library, will they still be listed under iPhoto Albums in Aperture?
    I have read that if I leave them in their current location, I can later select Consolidate Masters and that would allow me to delete my iPhoto Library. Would that be the same as just importing in to the Aperture Library to begin with and deleting the iPhoto Library?
    I've also read something about exporting from iPhoto and then importing from Aperture. Is this an effective way to transfer? Any feedback would be great. These forums are awesome. I get more help on here then I do at the Genius Bar!!

    Basically, I would like to make the move from iPhoto 11' to Aperture 3. My biggest concern is duplication of images. I would like to import all images from iPhoto excluding any edits (essentially just masters) and begin using Aperture 3 for all my photo needs.
    If you have the latest  iPhoto 11'  and the most current Aperture 3.2.3, then you do not need to be worried about duplications. If your iPhoto and Aperture are current and the iPhoto Library has been upgraded by iPhoto 11, then Aperture will be able to import many images as proper master-versions pairs, so that the iPhorto edited versions don't need much additional space.
    The older images, where Aperture cannot create a master-version pair will import as separate masters, one for the original master image file, and one for the edited version. Aperture will stack those two images and tag them with keywords "iPhoto Original" and "iPhoto Edited". You will be able to collect them in a smart album by filtering using these keywords and can use that to delete the edited versions you do not want.
    I have read that if I leave them in their current location, I can later select Consolidate Masters and that would allow me to delete my iPhoto Library. Would that be the same as just importing in to the Aperture Library to begin with and deleting the iPhoto Library?
    Yes, that would be the same.
    If you want to migrate from iPhoto to Aperture and not use iPhoto any longer, then make a backup from your iPhoto Library and import into Aperture directly, without referencing the iPhoto Library. Referencing the iPhoto Library will give no added functionality, but will restrict your use of iPhoto and is not very safe.
    The most versatile option ton import into Aperture is by using 
         File > Import > select iPhoto Library
    This will mirror your iPhoto Library in Aperture exactly as it is now: Folders, events, books, slideshows, albums, keywords, and other metadata tags like ratings.
    I've also read something about exporting from iPhoto and then importing from Aperture. Is this an effective way to transfer?
    This will transfer your images, but not the work you put into organizing your library (albums, etc.)
    Also you will only get the masters or the edited versions. By importing the library you can get both as master-versions pairs (as far as possible).
    Any feedback would be great. These forums are awesome. I get more help on here then I do at the Genius Bar!!
    Thank you for that. We like to share what we have learned here. Post back if you still have questions.

  • How can i delete images from iPhoto?

    I can not delete images from iphoto. When I try to move pictures to the trash they do not move, and if I try to delete them by pressing "right click> Trash" they do not move! pretty much the only way I can delete pictures from iphoto is to delete the library.
    Can anyone help me? I'm about to permanently delete iphoto from my macbook pro.
    it is nerve-wracking!

    Where are you trying to move these photos from?  The following are the key combinations for moving from different entities in the library:
    Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library:
    1 - from the Event or Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
    2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin.  Then empty the trash bin as above.
    If none of the above work try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If the problem persists in the new library make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Places not imported correctly from iPhoto into Aperture 3

    Hello,
    I'm a first time mac user and have recently installed Aperture 3. I already had an iPhoto library setup with all my events metadata filled out, including faces, places and event descriptions.
    Upon importing my iPhoto library into Aperture 3, the faces were copied over, but none of the places or event descriptions were imported.
    Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Is there a way to pull this across after the import, or should I just delete the aperture library and try again. Ideally, I'd like to avoid having to manually add all this information again!
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    A photo that was rotated in iPhoto will also show up as iPhoto edited.
    This is not what I found to be the case in a recent experiment using iPhoto11- I did repeat it to be sure.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15586837#15586837
    Quickly, what I found is that only the ones I did actual adjustments on brought over two images.  Images that were simply rotated, had "quick fixes" or "Effects" did not bring in two images.  More importantly, among the ones with adjustments that did bring in two images, the ones with the keyword  "iPhoto Edited" appear to be nothing more than iPhoto's 6MB JPEG Previews.  The master was a 25MB RAW image.
    I don't know why some users are experiencing doubles on everything, but I recommend caution in deciding which ones to remove or you may find yourself deleting masters and keeping previews.

  • Not all images uploading from camera..

    When I upload images from my camera it will load some of them and then it acts like upload is complete.   I have to hit upload several times to get a session uploaded that was shot all at the same time, anyone know what may cause this ?  I didnt realize it did this and it just cost me a session that I have to reshoot now bc I thought all the images were uploaded but they werent.

    Hi Michael sorry for your troubles - a really irritating issue to have!
    This is usually a hardware issue.
    You don't mention how you are downloading images.
    In general most folks would strongly recommend not downloading straight from the camera because of the number of issues that occur.
    If you are using a card-reader then it is likely that it is still a hardware issue.
    It may be the card reader, the USB cable, or the USB controller (rarer but still possible).
    If there is more to this let us know!
