Trouble with Aperture 3.2.3 recognizing Vault on external HD?

Having problem backing up to vault on external HD. ApertureVault window indicates it is disconnected, but it is not, and when I try to update path I get an error message saying "Not a valid vault file." The vault was originally on a different external HD, but I thought I had moved it successfully.Likewise when I try to backup it says no vault connected. I backed up a month ago, no problem, and since have upgraded to 3.2.3. Any advice? Thanks.

If you copy a vault to a new drive, you have to reconnect it:
You need to specify the location, or path, of the new or changed backup hard disk drive.
See: To specify a vault’s new location or path in the User Manual:
Connect the hard disk drive to your computer.
To show the Vault pane, do one of the following:
Choose Window > Show Vaults (or press Shift-R).
Click the Vault Pane button.
Select the vault to be updated to a new path.
Choose Update Vault Path from the Vault Action pop-up menu (with a gear icon).
Navigate to the location of the vault on the hard disk drive, select it, then click Update Path.
Regards
Léonie
P.S. If that still should not work, create a new vault on your new drive, and immediately back up to the new vault.

  • Lots of trouble with aperture

    APERTURE *****!!!
    And that is not easy said from a real mac fan. I am working with Aperture now for a year, specially bought the Intell G5 (specifications below) From the beginning I am not satisfied with performance of Apeture. I use, as a prof, photographer, aperture on a daily bases but I find Ap. slow and the performance is not what Apple said it should be. I twice did chech up my computer and videocard at the apple store but they say the computer is perfect.
    When I do adjustments in Aperture like exposure,auto levels or sharpen etc. my screen turns black or al kinf of stripes and colors apperar on the screen.
    Scrolling trough the photo's is really slow and the WHEEL ( with colors I don't know the english word for it) constantly appears.
    It's really annoying and drives me crazy.
    Is it just me or era there more out there who experience the same promblems.

    Not sure if that matters, but do you have a localized version of Aperture?
    Also, there's a post on here from Steve Weller about 32 ways to speed up Aperture. Try it out:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6018336&#6018336
    I don't use previews, and I KNOW that's helping with my speed and stability. I would quit Aperture and restart from time to time to flush out old memory.
    Give that link a look through. See if it helps!

  • Having trouble with Aperture images in a slideshow in iMovie

    I've searched for answers to this but can't seem to find out what I'm doing wrong....
    I'm trying to put together a slideshow in iMovie with my images from Aperture. They look horrible, color is way off and they're grainy. It was my understanding that iMovie uses the preview images from Aperture for making the movie so I have my settings in Aperture set to the best quality for previews. Is that right? Is there something else I should be doing?
    Thanks for any help.

    No, thats the right way I do it with my images. I use iMovie 09 and the preview size of my iLife previews are set to 1680 pixel. I do mostly some slideshows in iMovie for displaying on the web and for iPhone, so the output from iMovie will be most times at 480 pixel wide. The colors are fine and images look best as in Aperture.
    What I found sometimes is, some outwashed colors - unsaturated - after I export my movie from iMovie. This comes when I use other settings for exporting the movie than the presets for iPhone or Apple TV. The same behavoir did I recognize when exporting a movie from Final Cut Express or Keynote. This behavoir may be outdated in Snow Leopard, because Quicktime X should use Colormanagement the first time.

  • Anyone else having trouble with Aperture 3 constantly quitting?

    Hi
    I've been running Aperture 3 for a few days with no problems than an occasional quit; but today it is quitting every time I try to move a photo to a different spot in the same album, or try to insert a slide into a slideshow. It has become totally unusable. Anyone know what is going on? I just relaunched it and it is doing nothing, hanging and is using 93 % of my CPU!!!
    Help, anyone?
    Thanks

    Check "show activity" to see what A3 is doing. If it's faces related you should probably just disable that for now– there seem to be some issues with it. You can also try the repair options:
    http://aperture.maccreate.com/2010/02/09/repair-rebuild-fixing-your-aperture-3-l ibrary/
    I had occasional crashes that were resolve by repairing the db and permissions.

  • Trouble with aperture importing images or perhaps seeing drive.

    i keep my images on an external bus powered drive (120gb lacie rugged drive), for a while aperture would let me import images (i want to use a referenced library) from this drive. at some point aperture would not see any of the images or folders on this drive. aperture may have appeared to think it was some other kind of volume? (a cf card perhaps?)
    are there any known problem with bus powered drives and aperture?
    this was all with the 30 day trial version which has since expired, i'm afraid that i am a little vague with info. to compound matters ive had a drive failure, so while this all happened with 10.4.8, but now i'm now back on 10.4.6.
    i have an educational version (xmas present) that i can install, but before i break the seal and install it, i want to make sure that i will be able to use this drive to store my images.
    thanks!

    You were right the format was set to sRAW2 after resetting the files are seen by Aperture, however, a new problem has arise. The adjustment area only sees the normal and not the RAW. In other words adjustment tab is not designated in the tool section.

  • Trouble with my iPhone not being recognized as a camera...?

    I'm trying to save the pictures taken with my iPhone to my PC running XP. But my computer doesn't seem to recognize that the iPhone is connected, but it is charging it and when I open iTunes I can sync it just fine. I looked in My Computer to see if it was listed there as a storage device, but it's not. I also went into Control Panel and opened Scanners and Cameras and tried to add it but of course it's not on the list of available cameras. I think my computer recognized it as a camera when I connected it the very first time, but I haven't seen it do that since. I've tried to read other posts but can't seem to get any real good answers, any PC people know what I can do ?

  • Anyone having trouble sharing large images via email with Aperture 3 and OSX 10.7.2?

    I am having trouble sharing images via email with Aperture 3. No matter what size I have in the preferences, the image is thumbnail size. The requested size flashes on the email a couple of times but the small size remains and is sent. I am using OSX 10.7.2. Any suggestions how I may send larger sizes?

    I have taught many how to use GUI-based computers.  The number of controls they are aware of on the screen always progresses, usually linearly with the amount of time they spend actively learning the GUI.  Beginners are totally flummoxed that windows can hide other windows.  A step beyond that, they are amazed that they can resize windows using the mouse cursor.  Those two are trivial to most users today, but they illustrate 1. that there is nothing "intuitive" about the GUI, and 2. that the amount one perceives is dependant on the amount one knows. IME, this has nothing to do with age, and everything to do with experience using a GUI.
    Here is a good hint:  if you are using a Mac and can't figure out how to do something, look for something to click.    If you find something that seems promising, try "{Option}+clicking".
    The interface is richer than any one person can master.  Frank's statement "most times we all fail to see everything " is, imho, _always_ true.  We never see everything, even in the grossly limited resolution of our computer screens.

  • Just bought a brand new Airport Extreme and having trouble with it being recognized. I have a Mac version 10.5.8. Is my computer compatible?  I have the Airport Express now and it works fine.

    Just bought a brand new airport extreme and having trouble with it being recognized.  My mac is version 10.5.8.  What should I do?

    The new AirPort Extreme needs the 6.x version of AirPort Utility, which comes packed in with Lion 10.7.5 or Mountain Lion 10.8.x......or......you can also configure the device using an iPhone or iPad running a recent iOS.
    From Apple's Specifications:
    Setup and Administration
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later and AirPort Utility 1.3
    Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later and AirPort Utility 6.3
    A few options.....
    Borrow another Mac running Lion or Mountain Lion for 10-15 minutes and set it up. The Mac running 10.5.8 will be able to connect to the wireless....but it will not be able to make any changes to the configuration of the Extreme.
    Update to Lion or Mountain Lion.....but check first to make sure that your Mac will support the operating system first.
    Use....or borrow an iPhone or iPad to set up the Extreme

  • TS2518 Anyone else having trouble with plug-ins in Aperture 3.2.3?

    I am having problems with Aperture 3.2.3 using my Nik plug-ins.  I have updated everything from my iMac to Aperture to my plug-ins.  I've done a repair permissions, restarted, and all that as well. 
    The problem is that when I edit a photo using my plug-ins, and hit save, instead of it normally rendering all the changes, the photo appears normal.  If I have more than two edits, and I hold scroll all the way over (from first to last), it will show the edits to the last photo only, but only as long as I continue to hold the scroll arrow, once I let go, it returns to normal.  Other times, when I edit a photo, hit save, it appears normal, but if I close Aperture, reopen it, the edits are there.  Obviously, this is not very conducive to getting much done. I have Photoshop 12.0.4, but my plug-ins are specific to Aperture, and I actually prefer Aperture, but I've had minor stabilty issues with it from day one, and this is just really problematic.

    This is a known issue:

    See: iCloud: Photo Stream Troubleshooting
    Your screenshots do not show, if you also edited the settings behind the "options" button  in the "System Preferences > iCloud" panel. Did you activate "My Photo Stream" in the PhotoStream options? Make sure that both the My Photo Stream and Shared Photo Streams checkboxes are selected.
    And is your network active, while you are trying to connect to the Photo Stream?
    BTW: Your screenshot shows your Apple ID email account. That is not safe.
    Did the Photo Stream images download to your Mac? You can view all your Photo Stream images in your User Library: The images are stored in the subfolders of
    ~/Library/Application Support/iLifeAssetManagement/assets/
    As you probably know, the User Library is hidden since Mac OS X Lion.
    You can reveal it from the Finder's "Go" menu in the main menu bar:
    Finder > Go
    Then hold down to options-key ⌥, until Library appears in the drop-down menu. Select it and open the Library, then navigate to the "Application Support" subfolder, then "iLifeAssetManagement", then "Assets".
    If all fails, copy and save all images you find there, then delete this folder, log off and log on, then try again.

    No, my "P" or "p" works just fine. If you think there is something wrong with your new iPhone 5 contact AppleCare or return it to your local Apple Store without delay, the longer you wait the harder it will be to get a replacement.
