Referenced Images Say They are Referenced But Are Not.

Is anyone having the following problem? I have about 4500 images that were Imported into Aperture as Referenced. Have been working with them over the past month. Tried making a Web Journal recently and after exporting the pages, many of the images did not show up in the web pages although the caption did. I went back to my Album and went through the images. The ones that didn't show up in the web pages were very strange looking within the Album. As a thumbnail they looked fine but when I put the loupe on them at 100% it was obvious that they were some sort of small jpeg or something due to lots of jaggies and poor quality. Even though the Reference icon was supposedly fine, telling me it was online since it did not have a yellow warning label, for some reason Aperture was not accessing the original RAW file.
I now have hundreds of images I have to try and find in the Album that say they are referenced but really are not.
Prior to this web journal problem showing up Aperture had been showing me many of these files were not online even though the drive was definitely hooked to the computer and I was able to go to the same images via the Finder and actually see that they were there. One minute the overall project registered images offline, I would click on an Album and they would register as Online. Then switch back to the Project and amazingly they register as online. Back down to the Album and it tells me they are off line. Back and forth from project to album and a different icon 50% of the time. I knew something was up.
I eventually tracked down many of the images that said they were online but by reviewing them it was obvious they were not due to the jaggies I mentioned above. When I would find one like this I went to Manage Referenced Photos and reconnected the image even though it's telling me it is already connected. After doing this to many of the images I reproduced the web pages and they then showed up. I nearly had all the images showing up except for one that I must have missed in reconnecting so I went back to do just that. As I scrolled through the Album and the Web Journal, many of the thumbnails would turn gray and then finally an image would show up. This happened to dozens of images. I found the one that had not shown up in the last export of the web pages, reconnected it (even though it said it was connected) and then exported the web pages again. Unfortunately I was back to square one. Once again dozens of images were now not showing up in the export of the web pages again.
I just can't believe how buggy 1.5.2 seems to be. I thought maybe it was something to do with Repairing Permissions so I went and did all of that. Still no luck! Anyone else experience anything like this? I'm about ready to give up on this software.

Victor,
Yes larger hard drives will help but the day they are large enough to fit in a laptop with a professional photographers entire collection is a long way off and may never happen. There is no reason why Referenced files needs to be so difficult. Two quality programs that handled it with ease was RAW Shooter (now gone having been bought by Adobe) and Photo Mechanic which is superb for some tasks. For Aperture to have this many issues with referencing images is unacceptable and the market place will bear this out. I've quite using the program all together and have gone back to Photo Mechanic combined with IView and Photoshop. There's still room for an Aperture like product but Apple better get moving to make it work better. Microsoft just announced some of the upcoming IView capabilities that will be available next year. Adobe has CS3 and Lightrooom and I'm guessing Photo Mechanic isn't resting on it's heels. I really, really wanted to like Aperture and I worked with it day in and day out for nearly two months. As time went on the Referenced files just kept getting more and more unstable and I lost a ton of work due to it no longer being able to see some of those files.

I paid early termination fee two months ago to Verizon and am now out of the country. Am trying to unlock the phone but the local guys say they are not able to. I see from the blog here that iPhone 5 comes unlocked. Is it true?? Do I still have to unlock.

Thank you for reaching out to us, Texasman. Sad to see that
you have left the VZW family, but it is definitely awesome to be able to
travel! Regarding your iPhone 5, the phone is unlocked for international usage.
Just need an active local SIM card that is compatible with your iPhone. Your local provider
may need to configure some settings under Cellular, but it should pick up signal. Just in
case, make sure that Settings>Cellular>Roaming>Voice & Data are
active.

You're really posting in the wrong forum. you should be posting here ( https://discussions.apple.com/community/itunes/itunes_store ) Or calling apple support directly.

All contacts saying they are not available

I cant understand why people are saying they are offline when I am sure they are on line. I am abroad and used it once but when I purchased the internet skype will not work correctly but I can still get on the internet so I know thats working. Any ideas?

Are you signed into the AppStore with the same Apple ID you used when you originally bought GarageBand and the in-app purchase? If yes, then contact the iTunes Store, see:

Phone Line BT Saying they are not our service prov...

We've just had an incredibly frustrating weekend trying to speak with someone at BT to resovle our problem....which is that BT have disconnected our line, even though our account is in credit and are saying that they (BT) are not our service provider, but cannot tell us who is. We have never instructed BT that we wish to change our line service provider, they have never contacted us to ask / tell us that the line provider is changing, we have never signed or spoken to anyone or given authority to change SP, but BT are insistent that they are not our SP, but can't tell us who is.
Consequently we can't do anything to get re-connected as we don't know who to contact, it's as if our line has evaporated into nowhere. BT customer services are of no help, on Saturday we must have spoken to 20 different people all of whom simply passed us on to the next dept, often we were dumpedl in a queue and abondoned , our calls were cut off on approx 6 / 7 occasions, people who promised to call back never did.
If anyone at BT reads this please can you explain what is going on, we have no line or broadband, we do not pay any other phone SP, never have and if you check our line number on a SP website it states that BT are our line SP.

TS3297 When I try to buy a song from iTunes it says something about security questions and when I type them in it says they are not valid and won't let me download the music?!

iTunes Store is not letting me purchase any songs. When I download them it says something about security questions and when I type them in it says they are incorrect when they are! Hiw can I download song?

CC programs are installed but CC desktop says they are not

I have Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC, InDesign CC, Dreamweaver CC installed on my PC. The Cloud Updater lists them all under "Find New Apps" as [yet to] "Install". These programs were all initially installed through the CC panel. But I can update each one separately by opening any of the program outside of the CC window and selecting "Updates" in the single program and then updating them all through the Adobe Application Manager. What's going on, please?
And what will happen to the existing programs if I go ahead and select "Install" from the CC panel given that they are already installed?
Thanks in anticipation

Hi waratahbay,
Kindly provide the screenshot of creative cloud apps panel so that we can assist you appropriately.
Please check the version of the that you have install on your machine, also check the version that are available to install in Creative Cloud app.
Meanwhile, try the below mentioned steps.
If the version in apps seems latest then try click on update/install for any of the application.
If the version is similar then try the below mentioned link: Updates repeatedly applied | CC
Thanks,
Atul Saini

CC Desktop reports all apps up to date, but Indvidual apps say they are not?

While I have the Creative Cloud desktop application open and connected I will get Windows Tray notifications from Individual Adobe applications telling there "Updates ready to Apply."
THe creative Cloud desktop app shows that all installed applications are 'up to date'.
Below is a screen clip of the desktop app showing all up to date and a open Acrobat 11 dialog saying updates are ready to install.
The Acrobat 11 dialog opened immediately after the Desktop application displayed the installed application statuses.
So are all the updates the Desktop application downloading getting applied? Or are they getting applied twice?

Run the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool, lett AAM reinstall the apps, then try to run the updates again.

New computer has been loaded with old Itunes library but a number of earlier purchases say they are not "authorized" on this computer even though the bulk of my library works-- this is only about 5% of the total but were all purchased 9/18/2008 or before?

New computer has been loaded with old Itunes library but a number of purchases prior to 9/18/08 are not "authorized" when I try to play them.
They are all items I purchased from Itunes but they won't play any longer even though they show in my Itunes library.
Doesn't work when I enter account info and password either.
This is only about 5% of my library and many purchased items play no problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Two words, Migration Assistant. It will transfer files between two Macs using a firewire cable automagically.

Three words, Target Disk Mode. Use a firewire cable to connect two Macs and then hold down the T key when you boot the Mac you want to transfer files from, G4 Tower. It will appear as a hard drive on the desktop of your Macbook Pro. Then you can just drag and drop the whole folder.

Firefox does not load long images, pixelates images if they are not in their original size, and has problems with thumbnails (in some sites)

Firefox has problems with images.
In sites like deviantART or ImageShack with full-view option, images that are not in full size/thumbnails get slightly pixelated e.g. http://img251.imageshack.us/f/screenshot2tq.jpg/
Long images get completely messed up if full-viewed e.g. http://img689.imageshack.us/f/screenshot5z.jpg/ (though if the file is only big, it loads just fine)
Also, thumbnails in some sites get messed up e.g. http://img201.imageshack.us/f/screenshotyr.jpg/
And in general, Firefox has more 'glitches' like not allowing to add more search engines. It wasn't like that before and I can only assume that it got messed up somewhere with updates, but I'm not really sure.
I've tried cleaning out cache, re-installing Firefox (multiple times) and even downloaded Firefox 4 beta, but the problem remains.
I use Ubuntu.
Does anyone else have similar problems? Or know where the problem lies?

Do you have the latest driver for your graphics display card?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

I have just got a new Macbook Pro and am trying to sync with my iPhone. Everything is working except I can't get my Audible Downloads it is saying they are not authorised to play on this computer. Any suggestions?

I have just got a new mac book pro. When I synced my iphone 4s with it my audible book files were deleted from my phone though they are on the computer still. A pop up said my iphone was not authorised to play on this computer. Everything else is there just not my audio books from Audible. I'm half way through a book, what do I do?

The iphone is not a backup device.
You need to copy everything from your old computer, or your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

TS5325 I have already purchased all the instruments but my app is saying they are not available. I have clicked already purchased but it says I need to login as original user???? Any ideas.

I have already purchased the full set of GarageBand instruments but the app is no longer recognising this. I have clicked on already purchased as it suggests in troubleshooting however it then says it can't install because I need to login as the original user??? Please help.

Are you signed into the AppStore with the same Apple ID you used when you originally bought GarageBand and the in-app purchase? If yes, then contact the iTunes Store, see:

Had to restore my ipod most apps have gone back on no probs but three are saying they are not compatible any suggestions please

had to restore my ipod, most apps have gone back on with no probs but three of them saying incompatible can anyone help please

Hi Skydiver119
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my problem.
Yes the purchases were made though my apple id.
I have looked at a few other questions on this topic and I have read that the app data is stored in the backup file but the apps themselves need to be synced back onto the ipad. Someome has mentioned right clicking on sync my ipad but I don't know where to find that to right click on!! Lol.
Again, I really appreciate your time and if by any chance you know where I can 'right click' I would really appreciate you letting me know as I can't get my ipad to sync with my pc at all, although it is being picked up in itunes and it has backed up to itunes okay. GGrrr. Maybe I have something wrong in the settings which is not making them compatible?

Songs that I bought from ITunes and play on my computer, will not upload to my IPhone because it says they are not authorized even though they are. How do I fix this?

These songs were fine when I originally bought them, they play on my computer, and even played on my old Iphone. I have deauthorized and authorised my computer serval times, but nothing seems to fix it. What do I do?
