Online/cloud storage for use with Aperture?

Can anyone tell me if there is an option for online/cloud storage for Aperture photo libraries?  I take a lot of photographs which progressively fill ip my hard drive. I'm interested in getting a  Air (especially if the rumors of updated Sandy Bridge processors coming this June pan out), but can't really do that and keep all the photographs on my notebook.   I realize I could use an external drive, but I would sort of like to have access to all the photographs without always to carry along the external drive.   I suspect such a thing exists, but I'm a novice when it comes to cloud storage...  Thanks

Check out Mosaic. Mosaic provides online storage that is integrated with your Aperture Library. This way if you have your Aperture photos referenced to an external hard drive, you can still access all of your files from the road.
This enables Argelius prefered workflow where you use an external hard drive for your local storage but you don't have to carry the external around with you everywhere you go.

  • External hard drive /storage for use with mini and XP (bootcamp)

    Never purchased an external hard drive (storage) before so not sure if this is possible.
    Basically I have an intel mini with 60gb hard drive, which I have now allocated 20 to xp via boot camp. I'm quickly using up the 20gb with a few games so I want to purchase an external storage device that will work with both osx and windows - is this possible?
    My mini hasnt 'seen' a few USB devices, can anyone recommend one which is compatible with the intel mini?
    would any external drive have to be partinioned as well?

    I still do not know which format would be the best. That is so that I can use it easily between mac OSX and windows. Is FAT32 the only true option? How limited is it? I heard it is limited to 4GB file size for windows and 32 GB for Mac. Are there other sources I have not found with more concrete information on the limitations of this format?
    I really do still need this information and I need to back up my drive before I can take the computer in for service.

  • How can you purchase additional cloud storage without using account credit?

    How can you purchase additional cloud storage without using account credit? Want credit to remain on accounts as it was a gift for my daughter and we haven't finished using it yet but need to purchase additional storage for all of our accounts. Can't I just override the automatic payment from the account and just pay with a separate cc?

    Purchasing additional storage will not use account credit anyway.  It gets directly charged to your credit card, and you must use a credit card since it is an annual subscription service you are purchasing, not a one time payment option.  They insist on a credit card so they have a billable account for the automatic annual subscription fee.  At least it was that way when I did it.
    Sorry - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4874  either I did not have enough credit at the time or something has changed since I did it?  Maybe call Apple and do it over the phone (explain why you want to do it that way)?

  • Best photo sharing site to use with aperture?

    what is the best photo-sharing site to use with aperture?
    flickr and flickr export?
    or are there more capable alternatives?
    is there any solution to sync tags and keywords between aperture and the photo sharing site?
    thanks for any advice

    i was wondering what the best service is in combination with aperture, the best service on its own for me is flickr, i like there online interface a lot.
    so there is no way to have the same functionality with aperture as with iphoto from ilife08?
    the demo on the .mac website shows they simply upload a gallery to .mac web gallery like here: http://gallery.mac.com/emily_parker
    now when i export a web gallery from aperture its just a stupid web page with none of the interactive functions of a web gallery
    but unless aperture can publish to .mac like iphoto can i will probably stick with flickr, flickr export for aperture seems also the most capable plug in for the moment compared to the export plugins for smugmug or other services.
    i was really hoping to be able to use .mac like advertised with iphoto or have someone here suggest some other great service to use with aperture, i would especially like to be able to sync keywords both ways.

  • Partitioning an External 320gb drive for use with Time Machine and...

    I want to be able to use my Western Digital 320GB external drive for use with Time Machine and to use as extra storage space on both my Mac and when I boot into Windows Vista.
    Is this possible?
    I was playing around in Disk Utility and would I partition the part I want to use for Time Machine with the Mac OS Journaled, and whatever I want as space for windows, use a MS - DOS format?
    Has anyone done this before?
    Cheers-

    Unless you are using 64 bit version of MSWindows (64 bit XP/Vista), it won't be able to handle a disk with GUID partition table (GPT). Disks with Apple Partition Map (APM) or GUID partition table are the only ones that Time Machine will work with (not MBR disks). Note also that the MBR/APM/GPT are at the DISK level and not the partition level, so don't mix the format with partitioning scheme. Time Machine disks are meant to live in the Mac universe (for now, anyway) and sharing with the MSWindows 32-bit universe is not possible.

  • USB external portable HD for use with FCE and MBP ???????

    I've seen a 120 GB USB portable external Seagate HD for $117. Would this be usable as a scratch disk for use with my MBP 2.0 and final cut express HD 3.5. Are there problems with using USB externals? FW external hd's seem to be a good deal more expensive.
    Thanks.
    Maurice

    I bought one recently very cheaply to use for general storage.
    I found that FCE 3.0 worked perfectly and have been using it ever since instead of my FW HD.
    HOWEVER, before you dash out and buy one take note that I have only been tinkering around and experimenting with comparatively short projects of no importance.
    I strongly suspect that if I made a long and complicated film I might suffer - so pay the extra and get a FW HD !
    Incidentally for normal storage purposes the USB2 HD takes over twice the time to move files back and forth. So even for non-FCE use the Firewire HD is twice as fast.

  • External Hard Drive for PowerMac G5 for use with FCP Studio

    Hello,
    I'd greatly appreciate any recommendation for an external hard drive for a PowerMac G5 for use with FCP Studio.
    Thanks.

    We see alot of Lacie issues here and elsewhere.
    Drives fail... period. I believe you hear more about Lacie drives failing because they sell a ton more of them than many other suppliers. I've got 8 of em sitting right here on the desk and two more at the second station. I've lost one since I started using them years ago (and it had problems right out of the box) and I use them pretty heavy.
    I understand that they use several different brands of drives in their enclosures, but from my experience they must have pretty good QC standards for what they package.
    The guy said the G Techs were a little overkill for his needs. Lacie doesn't pay me. But if someone asks "how are Lacies?" I'll tell them they've been great for me and many others I know, especially if your requirements are capturing DV.
    In five years, I ain't heard anybody say anything about it.
    As for FCP. I love it! In 20 years of business, it's probably the purchase that's given me the most bang for my buck. But if you haven't heard people knock it, you've never met an Avid zelot, bruhhhhh, just the thought gives me shivers.
    The drives X mentioned are designed for video work.
    What Studio said, well he gives out some of the best advice on this board
    (and maybe the most! ) and my reply to his post... that's why I used the little smiley face. No offence intended X.
    I only meant to say that, in a world where software like FCP can do what it does at the price it does it, and drives like Lacie and G Tech can give you the storage they do for the price they do, the line between consumer and professional products is easily blurred.

  • Best POS system for use with Mac?

    What is the best POS system for use with Mac?  Using Quickbooks and paper invoices and inventory.  Would like to upgrade to POS system.

    Ideally it is best to have seperate (discreet) EHD's for a PC and Mac due to their differences in HD formatting. However, this is not always feasable but there are alternative solutions availble. Among those are:
    Creating and useing a Dropbox account that can be shared by PCs, Macs, IOS and Android devices. Dropbox allows for 2GB of free storage and additional storage is available for a small monthly fee.
    Another possiblity is formating an EHD so that it may be shared by both a PC and Mac, this format is FAT 32. The downside of doing this is the size of the files written to the HD are limited to 4GB.

  • Unsure about preparing a Dreamweaver Site for use with Contribute

    Recently I designed a small Dreamweaver Website (DW CS2) for
    a friend and it is already successfully online. So that my friend
    can manage her own website, I`ve decided to prepare this DW site
    for use with Contribute, but I'm unsure about the steps involved
    and what files I will need to store on the server. Is the following
    roughly correct?
    Step 1: Define editable regions in these html files and save
    these as html files.
    Step 2: Enable Contribute Compatibility in DW before I upload
    to the server.
    Step 3: Is setting up a Connection Key necessary for my
    friend`s access?
    Step 4: Upload these. Do these completely overwrite the
    existing Dreamweaver html files on the server? Or should I be
    saving in another file format?
    Many thanks to anyone who can advise me!

    I sugggest these steps:
    A: Dreamweaver:
    1. build you site based on (a) template(s) with editable
    regions
    2. upload the website to the server
    B: Contribute
    1. create a connection
    2. administer the website ( and create an admin password )
    3. set the proper settings for your users (administrators,
    publishers, writers), enable rollbacks
    4. create a connection key fot you user with the proper role
    and save that to disk
    C: Dreamweaver
    1. manage the site in dreamweaver
    2. enable contribute compatibility (this way files get
    checked in and out, so you know who is editing what)
    D:
    1. Sent the connection key to your user

    I have an external hard drive that was formatted by a PC and has files and directories copied to it etc. I want to use it on my IMAC for backup. I see it on my my IMAC . I can open files etc.  But I can't seem to write to it nor can I delete current content. I don't care if I lose current content. How do I initialize it for use with the MAC?

    You can't write to it because it's formatted as NTFS which OS X will read but not write to. If you want to continue using the drive with both a PC and OS X you will need to download and install NTFS-3G so you can then write to it from your Mac. You can get NTFS-3G at:
    http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/24481/ntfs-3g
    If you want to use the drive exclusively with your Mac then move the data off it and reformat it in Disk Utility (Applications - Utilities - Disk Utilities) as Mac OS Extended (Journaled.)

  • I have a company Ipad that belonged to a deceased employee. no access to his icloud or appleID. how can I restore it for use with a new apple ID

    I have a company Ipad that belonged to a deceased employee. no access to his icloud or appleID. how can I restore it for use with a new apple ID?
    The apple ID was his personal account and can no longer gain access. Im sure I can get purchase recipts from the accounting department if needed. I tried to put the Ipad in restore mode and used itunes to "recover" the ipad but it still wont let me in because he registered the device with the "lost iphone" feature or whatever that is.

    Activation Lock in iOS 7  >  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required
    If you do not have that information you will not be able to use the Device.

    There is no 500GB iCloud storage plan, 20, 200 or 1000 are the available plans.
