Upgrade D300 to D700 : request to delete pictures after import

Hi,
I've recently upgraded from a D300 to a D700. After importing my pictures from the D300 into Aperture (via USB cable), Aperture always asked me whether I wanted to delete the pictures from the camera.
I noticed that when doing the same with the D700, Aperture does not ask this question after import.
Is this is known difference and is there any way to work around it (except for formatting the memory card after import)? I do know the USB mode/file system of the D700 is different from the D300, this might be related to the behaviour noticed.
Thanks in advance.

I'm a Canon shooter so I don't really know, but the camera may not allow that operation. You probably would not experience this with a card reader.
The option to erase the card being available but not working is a known issue, but you'll find that most people here don't recommend using that option anyway.
It's really best to let the camera reformat the card so that it's formatted by the camera that's going to shoot it. Another reason not to use this option is that the images should be backed up before the card is erased.
Most would recommend that you import using a card reader, back up the images then reformat the card in the camera. Some recommend not importing directly from the camera or the card but copying the files to the hard drive then importing from there to avoid card corruption.

  • HT4061 My 4s iphone doesnt delete pictures after I connect to itunes?

    Anyone know how to fix my Apple Iphone4s to delete photos after i connect and update Itunes?

    Hello wedge60,
    After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning device recognition issues:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
    If you haven't connected your iOS device to this computer before, unlock the device and tap Trust. Learn more about the Trust This Computer alert.
    Restart your iOS device.
    Restart your Mac.
    Make sure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
    Install software updates on your Mac.
    If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.
    Check USB connections. iOS devices need USB 2.0 to work properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, check the computer's specifications.
    Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
    Try another USB cable.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • Deleting iPhoto after import to aperture

    Hi,
    After importing my iPhotos into Aperture can i then delete all the iPhotos?
    Thanks
    iMac 24"   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    They would have been moved into the Aperture library unless you specified that they not be in Aperture's Preferences.
    One way to check is to select an image and then see if "Show if Finder" is availiabe in the File menu. If it is, you can see where the file is stored, if it isn't, the file is in the Aperture library and you can delete the version in iPhoto.
    Of course you could always back up the iPhoto version to DVD just to have one more backup. More is better when it comes to backups.

  • Deleting images after importing

    Aperture 2.0 won't delete images from the card after importing. I click the button to delete and eject, and then in the confirmation dialog again I click delete, but it quietly ejects the card with no errors and all of my images are still on it.
    I'm using an 8GB SDHC card with a SanDisk USB reader. My camera is a Nikon D40x.

    I'm getting frustrated (and somewhat annoyed) at the inability of Aperture 2.0 to delete images from a memory card.
    Users that claim they don't get this option might like to set the "display alert when done" option in the Import panel. Once this is set, then the program displays an alert following successful import. There is the option to delete the imported images from the memory card.
    The delete option worked flawlessly on versions 1.1 through to 1.5, but is now broken.
    For reference, I'm using the new SanDisk Extreme IV Firewire (800) CF reader, and have been using a SanDisk Extreme III 4GB compact flash card.

  • Iphoto lost pictures after import

    I just uploaded a couple thousand pictures form my iphone into iphoto. after completion, I clicked to have the imported photos deleted from the phone. During the deletion process, iphoto froze and I had to force quit the program. Now, I cant find my pictures in iphoto, and most of the pictures were deleted from the phone before the program froze.
    any Idea's on how to find/get these pictures? I appriciate any help. thanks.

    If the photos are in the library but not recognized by iPhoto there are a couple of things you can try.
    Make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and  apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #1, followed by #3 and then #4.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
    If both of these fail try this third method:
    Start over from scratch with new library
    Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
    1. Open the library package like this.
    2. Launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    3. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the open iPhoto Library package into the open iPhoto window.
    Click to view full size
    This will create a new library with the same Events (but not necessarily the same Event names) as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects.  Hopefully it will pick up those "missing" photos and include them in the import.
    Note:  your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.

  • After upgrade to  9.1.0.79 iTunes freezes after importing CD

    I've just upgraded this morning to iTunes 9.1.0.79 on my Windows 7 laptop.
    After the upgrade, everything looked OK, except when loading a CD it seemed to be loaded by Windows Media player rather than iTunes (and didn't show up in the iTunes DEVICES) so reassociated iTunes when prompted and rebooted laptop
    Still had the same issue, but found that if I didn't start iTunes first, then it would prompt me to import the CD. However then found that after loading the last track, iTunes would freeze up and show as "Not responding" in Taskmgr. The only way out was to kill iTunes process. All album tracks were imported, except the last one.
    After a couple of reboots and checks, I was just doing a final re-run to make this post and everything suddenly seems to now be working... i.e. with iTunes running, if I put in my CD it now imports it for me and doesn't hang
    I am a little nervous about this as I haven't done any changes since it didn't work...
    Has anyone seem something like this before with this version ?

    OK, so here's what is happening now....
    The only way I can get CDs imported now is to
    1. load a CD without iTunes loaded, so it then launches iTunes for me and I can click the Import button
    2. After that, if I change the CD then iTunes will give me the prompt to import the CD
    3. After two or three CD changes, it stops prompting me, so I have to go back to step 1 again
    Bizairely, even when it doesnt list the CD, it still allows me to eject the CD succesfully, so it seems to know it's there....
    Seems like a bug in the latest update to me, as I had auto import of CDs working fine just a week ago.....

  • Delete photo after imported into iPhoto?

    I'm trying not to have duplicate photos staying on the same harddrive after I import them into iPhoto.
    So, can I archive the original photo off my hard drive to an external after I import them into iPhoto?
    I know it's perhaps a silly easy question, but I thought that I would ask before I start moving pictures off to my external drive.
    Many thanks,

    Assuming that you are using the default (and very strongly recommended) managed library you have no need to keep the source image

  • Very grainy picture after import

    When I import my video from my mini dv cam, it looks ok in the event window in the upper right hand corner. However when I drag the clip into the project and play it, it looks terribly grainy. Why such a loss in quality? If I hook my camera directly to the tv, the picture quality is great..

    Hi-
    Because you are connected to a TV rather than a monitor, it could be that the resolution is not set correctly.
    Try to set a different resolution for the screen through you Display System Preferences. If you can't see properly, try a boot to Safe Mode (hold Shift while starting) and then open the Display preference panels.
    You will have to restart normally, after setting the resolution, to test the change.
    If you have a computer monitor, try the monitor. If the monitor exhibits the same problems, I would consider that that particular card is the problem, and would return it.

  • Delete Originals after Import

    When I import into iPhoto - once the import is completed, it asks if I want to delete the Originals (which I generally do!).
    Does Aperture have the same feature - and if so - where ('cause I can't find it!).
    Thanks.

    Supposedly, but people here have reported that 2.0 doesn't delete originals off the card, even when you tell it to.
    Frankly, my best advice is to not ever do this. Just manually format in the card when you use it. You'll have fewer issues this way (the camera is the only thing that TRULY knows what format it wants to use), and you have a backup if something should go wrong -- until you erase the card in the camera. If you ever have a situation where an import goes wrong and then the importing app does it anyway (I had this happen with iPhoto a few years back and lost some images), you'll NEVER have your importing app delete images automatically again.

  • Unable to Rotate Some Pictures After Importing from iphone4S

    When I upload my pictures to my computer (Windows), half of the pictures will not allow editing/rotating.  A message pops up that says "This picture can't be saved because of a problem with the picture file's properties.  I've checked the properties and cannot see anything that would be an issue.  It's a jpeg image.  There is also no pattern to which ones allow editing and which ones do not.  If I take 10 pictures in a row, 3 may allow editing while 7 do not.  Can anyone help me???

  • Videos deleted shortly after importing

    Hello everyone,
    I'm trying hard to migrate my photo collection from iPhoto (and eventually Aperture, which I still use for professional work) to the new Photos app.
    What I have noticed, though, is that, besides all photos from iPhone being imported rotated 180°, which is (annoyingly) fixable by hand, Photos will just delete videos from its catalogue. Needless to say, they open fine in iPhoto.
    Basically:
    On first launch (or consequent start-ups of the app when deleting the Photos library), Photos asks to import a library.
    It goes through the import process.
    All files are imported correctly (besides the 180° issue), including videos, which play back normally.
    Under Preferences, I set the library as System library (in case I deleted the previous Photos library), and turn on the iCloud Photo Library feature.
    Somewhere along the process, when I try to access some videos, it says "Photos can't reproduce the file" (translation from my OS X language). In some other videos, a small progress wheel appears on the bottom right, and gets stuck at about one quarter.
    I have also tried to import everything by opening manually the "Masters" folder in the old iPhoto library, but then, Photos will give an error regarding duplicate files.
    Honestly, all these problems are so un-Apple-like. I'm very frustrated; I've tried to give Photos a chance, but I can't even START using it.
    Any suggestions?

    Sorry, wrong section; please delete.

  • Delete images after import

    I used to have this set up to 2.02 Now with 3.03 it doesn't work any more an I cannot find the setting to put it back on?

    As I said this is a totally new concept to me because I have never heard of it until now. So I am interested in hearing more about it.
    Allan,
    I have spent a lot of time today (probably too much! ) looking for sources for my earlier comment. It is my belief that the information to which I referred was in a photography magazine. I tend to read things like *Questions to the Expert* and think it was in one of those answers. Unfortunately, I recycle my magazines and no longer have access to them. I did a lot of Google searching and found comments which were on both sides of this issue. Some agreed with what I remember reading. Deleting files in camera on the run can cause memory card problems. Others said that was just a nutty idea. None of these opinions were from well known credible sources I'd put money on. However, I am going to continue to avoid deleting more than a minimal number of images in camera just to be safe. (I think the camera LCD monitor is a poor place to make image quality judgements unless they a really gross anyway.)
    Like you I reformat in the camera in which the card will be used before the next use. I'd like to think that provides a clean space for the files on my next shoot.
    Happy shooting!
    Jerry
    As far as fragmentation goes, personally I don't see that as an serious problem with the way I used my CompactFlash cards. I always start a shoot with a CF card that has been newly formatted in the camera I am using. Generally my shoots run into the hundreds of RAW photos while any deleted photos are generally in single digits, very rarely may exceed ten. The amount of fragmentation that can develop on a newly formatted card and that few deletions would be very small.

  • Delete photos after import into iPhoto

    Is it possible to delete the photos on the mac after they have been imported to iphoto?

    Yes, if you're running a default Managed Library. In that scenario the file are copied into the iPhoto Library on import.
    A Managed Library, is the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing. The files are then stored in the Library package
    A Referenced Library is when iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing because you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced. (You unchecked the option to copy files into the Library on import) The files are then stored where ever you put them and not in the Library package. In this scenario you are responsible for the File Management.
