Unable to import all photos in an Aperture project

Hi all,
i was trying to load my new iPad (3) with some photos from my Aperture library (via iTunes) but noticed when selecting/checking the projects to import that only a subset of that project was able to be imported. This is the case with several of the projects in my Aperture library. Any ideas on what may be the cause? I thought at first that it may be an issue with RAW files, but in most cases there are none in these projects.
Dan

Thanks for the suggestions. 
I solved the problem by regenerating the Previews for the whole Project, but now find that I have to do this just about every time I add new photos to the Project which is becoming tiresome as this is not a quick process.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is suddenly happening?  I have been using Aperture for 6 months & it has never happened before.  There are only about 300 photo's in this particular project (I don't believe that is near the limit) - & no stacking at all, so that is not the problem...
Thanks T

  • I am unable to download all photos to computer.  At a certain photo I get the following message:  IPhoto cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image.  How can I go around this  image

    I am unable to import all photos to IPhoto on computer.  At a certain photo the following message appears:  IPhoto cannot import your photos
    because there was a problem downloading an image.  How can I circumvent this particular image and import all other photos?

    I'm having the same issue.  i have imported everything but the offending photo from my iPhone.  problem is, with over 5000 pics, i have no idea how to find THAT ONE pic that won't import (bc I just get a greyed out pic image - with no data in iPhoto)
    any idea how to get "date taken" info of THAT ONE pic out of iPhoto (or any metadata) so I don't have to search 3 years of pictures?
    and I do apologize for hijacking.

  • I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.

    I have imported all photos and videos from my iPhone 5S into Aperture ver.3.4.5 and now cannot find them. I thought I could open a panel showing all imports and merely list them chronologically, but I don't see how to do this.  There are over 1800 photos and about 100 videos, any help to locate where they've gone would be appreciated.

    Try to search with a Smart Album for photos and videos taken with an iPhone:
         File > New > Smart Album:
    Add an EXIF rule fro the "Add Rule" drop down menu: EXIF
    and set it to "Camera Model includes iPhone".
    Set the scope of the search to "Library"
    If there are any iPhone images or videos in your library at all, this search should find them.  Then ctrl-click any of the items and select "Show in Project" from the contextual menu.
    Generally, Aperture should be showing your last import in the "Last Import" smart album in the "recent" section". And the "projects" view can be sorted by date, so you should see your recent imports.
    You may want to check all search fields, if searches are active.

  • Aperture 3.2.1 not importing all photos from card reader

    Aperture is not importing all photos from the card reader, i tried importing 720 photos and it was only seeing 480 photos, the card reader stopped reading, aperture was saying "loading assets", still,  like if it was still reading the card. and the first time it loaded the pictures the import button was not availllable once not all the photos were not all loaded when the loading assets message stopped.
    i  had to force quit aperture, ejecting the card from the reader, aperture, on relaunch was still seeing the card as present but it was ejected from the finder , and  physicaly on the desk.
    i had to go in Apple Acticity monitor to find a process that was still active , someting called mass media and had to stop it.
    my work around was manually copying the content of the card on the external hard drive about  9 gig of photos on the external HDD where i keep my aperture photos.  copying 9 gig of photos over usb2 took an 50 minutes.
    i had jpegs raw and some videos in 720p
    i have a MBP 2.26 ghz 13"
    a Canon 7D and a Lexar 16 gig compact flash card.

    I'm sorry, but I can't understand this paragraph. It seems like the "loading assets" message stopped but not all the photos were showing up in the import window. Were any of the photos duplicates? How long did you wait until you forced quit?
    When you say "the first time it loadedthe pictures" you mean you attempted before and got the same result?
    It does seem like it is either getting stuck on an image or is taking a long time to read the images off the card since the import button is not available...
    When you copied the files to your external drive, you were then able to import to Aperture?
    Thanks

  • I am unable to import new photos in iPhoto 11. Perhaps I should just reinstall from iLife disk? Will it affect my photos in any way?

    Hello,
    I have iPhoto 11 installed on my MacBook. I am now unable to import new photos using USB or by plugging the camera directly into the laptop. Never had that probem before with this camera. Perhaps just reinstall iPhoto from the iLife disk?

    Hello Terence,
    Okay I will try reformating the camera's card. However all is well when I export photos to my iMac at home or onto my iPad.
    If your suggestion does not work should I try reinstalling iPhoto from the iLife disk? If so, how do I go about doing that or is there a website somewhere explaining this?
    Regards,
    Tom

  • IPad doesn't import all photos

    My ipad won't import all photos to iphoto. The photos from photostream wonÄt get imported at all. Any ideas what the problem could be?

    How did the photos get onto the iPad originally ? Your Mac won't see photos that were originally synced from a computer, if you want to copy those photos back to a computer then you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi-network.
    If they are not synced photos then have you tried Image Capture or Aperture to see if they see them ?

  • Unable to see All Photos when changing wallpaper in iOS 8

    I am unable to see All Photos when I'm changing the wallpaper in iOS 8.  I can only see my Albums that I've synced from my computer and Recently Added. Is this is a bug, moved the feature or just some odd thing going on with my phone?
    Workaround: I can go to the actual photo in the Photos app, select it and send it to "Use as Wallpaper"
    Device: iPhone 5S 32GB CDMA
    iOS: 8

    Try rebuilding the database, see if it helps:
    Hold down the apple and option keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

  • Unable to view all photos in version 8.1.2. Can only see last 18 month.

    Unable to view ALL photos in V 8.1.2  Only able to view past 18 months.

    Wild guess:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • I am unable to import older photos! Help?!

    Hi,
    I am experiencing issues importing photos from my iPhone 4 to my iMac. Only recent images are imported through iPhoto when I connect my iPhone to my iMac. I have 330 images in "My Photo Stream" folder. There are images in this folder that date back to over a year ago. I would like to import ALL of these photos over.
    How can I import ALL photos? I would appreciate any help.
    What I have done:
    -Rebuilt iPhoto database
    -iCloud photo stream is enabled.
    -Everything is updated (mavericks, newer iPhoto, iOS 7)
    -My phone is not Jailbroken nor do I plan to do so.

    SOLUTION
    I went ahead and downloaded an app called iPhone Explorer on my iMac. I then used this app to go through my iPhone and found the photo stream images in a folder. I then extracted them onto my iMac.
    I just do not know why apple makes things so difficult when it comes to retrieving old images.

  • Recently, I have been unable to import all of the "songs" or discs from multi-CD operas in itunes to my ipod classic or network hard drive. Only 1 or 2 discs import despite plenty of available space in both devices. Very frustrating! Any suggestions?

    Recently, I have been unable to import all of the "songs" or discs from multi-CD operas in itunes to my ipod classic or Seagate network hard drive. Only 1 or 2 discs or 20 or so "songs" out of a  total of 40 - 80 import despite plenty of available space in both devices. When I check itunes, each opera disc with all of the "songs" are listed. Very frustrating! Any suggestions?

    right click on the songs that do transfer and select create aac version then re sync

  • Why does iPhoto 6 imports all photos in two folders: modified and original

    I upgraded from iPhoto 5 to 6. Now I have all my photos in the order and with the name I have given to the rolls. Great!
    However, everytime I import new photos from my compact flash card iPhoto automatically modifies the photos by reducing the size and adjusting the orientation. These photos are on average 25-50% of the original size and are saved under the folder: pictures /iPhoto library /modified.
    At the same time iPhoto saves the original photos to the folder: pictures/iPhoto library / originals.
    The problem is that having more then 6GB of photos this set-up starts to fill my harddisk (presently an additional 2 GB).
    How can I change or cancel this feature. Does anybody have an idea or similiar expierence.
    thanks, Baguette

    How can I change or cancel this feature
    You can't.
    Does anybody have an idea or similiar expierence.
    Everybody does.
    iPhoto is not just an image viewer, but is a Database with a built-in image viewer, version control and lightweight editing.
    A Note about the iPhoto Library Folder:
    In this folder there are various files, which are the Library itself and some ancillary files. Then you have three folders
    Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
    (ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way. This also includes photos that have been auto-rotated by your camera.
    This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
    (iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
    So each element is there for a reason and there is no actual duplication.
    The notion of version control (the ability to revert to an Original) is central to the philosophy of the application, and if you don't want the feature, then the application may not be for you. There are many image viewers available.

  • How can I import all photos from iPhoto and delete all the ones currently on my iPad?

    I uploaded all of my iPad's photos to iPhoto('08) thinking it would be easier to delete and organize them. Now that I've done that in iPhoto I need help finding out how to delete all the photos from the iPad and have the iPhoto photos imported from iPhoto back to the iPad.

    This workflow may do what you want:
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new library.
    2 - connect the iPad to your Mac with the new library open.
    3 - import all of the photos from the iPad into the new library.
    4 - select the option to delete all of the photos from the iPad.
    5 - disconnect the iPad and delete the new library.
    6 - launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and select your original library.
    7 - assemble the photos destined for the iPad so you can easily identify them by album or event which you alread have done.
    8 - launch iTunes and connect the iPad to your Mac.
    9 - go to the photos section for you iPad and synce those particular albums or Events with the iPad.
    That will get those specific iPad photos back into the iPad.
