Upgrade to Aperture 2
Hi,
I'm currently using Aperture 1.5.6 Academic version and I'd like to know if I will be able to install the Upgrade version of 2.0 in my Mac? Anyone knows?
Cheers,
Mike

I have upgraded Apple Aperture from version 2 to version 3 and I'm having a problem with the "Highlights and Shadows" adjustment. According to the user's manual, I should have access to an advanced disclosure triangle which would allow me to adjust mid contrast, colour, radius, high tonal width and low tonal width.
If anyone has any suggestions as to how to access this advanced section, I'd be most grateful.Hi David-
The advanced adjustments in the Highlights & Shadows tool were combined into the "Mid Contrast" slider in Aperture 3.3 and later. If you have any images in your library that were processed in a version of Aperture before 3.3, there will be an Upgrade button in the Highlights & Shadows tool in the upper right, and the controls you asked about under the Advanced section. Clicking the Upgrade button will re-render the photo using the new version of Highlights & Shadows, and the Advanced section will be replaced with the new Mid Contrast slider. With the new version from 3.3 you probably don't need the Advanced slider, but if you want to use the older version you can download it from this page:

IPhoto asks for an upgrade of Aperture and otherwise won't open
After upgrade to Maverick, iPhoto asks for an upgrade of Aperture (which I don't have and never had), and otherwise won't open. If I click "ok", the Applications store opens and asks me to BUY Aperture (69,99 EUR).
There must be a bug in iPhoto 11 after the upgrade to Maverick..?I can only guess at a couple of solutions:
#1
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.
#2
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database, followed by Option #1 if needed. -
I have been working on a wedding slideshow for days and have over 3,000 pictures in albums on iPhoto. It suddenly will not open without upgrading to Aperture and I can't find any of my photos!!!! I need these photos, to complete the video, not to mention I don't want to lose them. I have had trouble ever since upgrading to Maverick.
Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down to open the First Aid window.
2 - Run Option #4, Rebuild Database. -
How do I fix this issue? I haven't been able to use Aperture or load new photos into Aperture for weeks. Since upgrading to Aperture 3, from Aperture 2; I've noticed that Aperture 3 is a major memory hog. I had to upgrade my unibody macbook to keep up with Aperture, otherwise my whole system become unresponsive when trying to simply look at my photos. I have about 15,000 pictures in my library, but the program is designed to organize large libraries. Why has it been so buggy the past year? Should I just jump ship and go to Lightroom?
ThanksMatt,
it is normal, that after a crash a library repair is required. Aperture is a database, and if a crash happens, transactions may not be completed, so the library may be left in an inconsitent state. Usually the built-in repair methods can take care of this. But I assume, you have a backup of your Aperture library. If not, now would be the time to create one, just in case.
I doubt, Aperture is causing this crashes - it may be a coincidence; kernel panics quite often are due to an overfull hard disk, incompatible frameworks or kernel extensions, or to failing hardware. Run a hardware check, check the available disk space and file system with disk utility, and try to remember, if you installed anything else lately, that might have added incompatible kernel extensions. Turn off any helper apps, start up items.
Your kernel panic occurs when accessing the graphics card. Sometimes this can be resolved by booting into safe mode, this will disable advanced features and reset the card. Note: Aperture will not run in safe boot mode, see
Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
Mac OS X: Starting up in Safe Mode
Browse MacBook forum and Mt. Lion forum, to see, if anybody else has problems with Mt. Lion and your particular Hardware configuration and card.
As a last measure reinstall your MacOS. You may also have a look at Thomas' Tech Corner » Understanding upgrade nightmares

Existing stacks not working after upgrading to Aperture 3
I am having an issue regarding my stacks after upgrading from Aperture 2 to the new Aperture 3. When I select any of my existing stacks that came over from my Aperture 2 library to Aperture 3's library, my stacks will not expand to show my images associated with that particular stack. Also, when I click to expand the stack, instead of showing how many images are in a stack, it shows "1 of x" (x being the number of images associated with that stack). When I go to unstack, it removes all of the stacked images, only leaving the pick visible in Aperture 3. This only happens with my existing stacks; it does not happen when I create a new stack in Aperture 3. Anyone else having this issue?!? Is there a solution to rectify this problem?
As strange as this sounds, I may have solved my own question! I created a new blank project, and then I took the photos from the "Photos" section in the Library, and clicked and dragged them in -- and low and behold, the stacks were there! It took the photos out of the original project and moved them to the new project -- stacks, edits, and all. If anyone else is having this issue, this might be the fix.
-
Since upgrading to Aperture 3.3, when I try to sync photos to my iPhone, I'm getting all versions in a stack loading onto my phone, which makes for some ugly pics, as well as taking up nearly double the space.
Could it be the problem lies with iTunes and not Aperture? iTunes 10.6.3 was released on the same day as Aperture 3.3 -- June 11.
If someone has a configuration to test an older version of Aperture with iTunes 10.6.3 to see if the problem exists, that could be helpful. -
Upgraded to Aperture 3.1, taking forever to sync MobileMe galleries
Just upgraded to Aperture 3.1 a couple days ago. After the images in my library were updated, Aperture was taken over by attempts to sync and retrieve MobileMe gallery images.
All my MobileMe albums try to update over a DSL line and it's just crawling. Tried to just kill off the galleries, to no avail.
Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have a work-around? Kind of crazy to have Aperture be taken over on upgrade with no possibility to simply cancel the updates.
SteveYes me too!
I'm losing a lot of confidence in why I pay anything for mobileme, more on that elsewhere.
Aperture / Preferences is inaccessible because when Preferences is opened it is stuck under the web tab with mobileme and the rotating disk of ****.
Activity monitor reports Aperture is not responding.
Force quit and restarted many times.
I am willing to discard mobileme all together even though I just got billed for my annual subscription to get Aperture back to normal. -
Upgrading from Aperture 2-3. What happens to referenced images?
I'm upgrading from Aperture 2 to 3. I have referenced images on some external hard drives. Will my referenced images be okay and still read correctly from my HD if I upgrade?
Hi
I had no problems it retained the Referenced File location info you will have to ensure the externals connected.
If they are not linked as indicated by a red line through the referenced file icon bottom RH corner
Select the images that need reconnecting and then go to File / Locate Referenced Files
You will get a dialogue box which enables you to find the Referenced File/s then click Reconnect or Reconnect All
I just had to do it because I renamed an external drive
Hope this helps -
Has anyone had aperture lose your album content when upgrading from aperture 2 to 3?
I was using Aperture 2 then wanted to get all my pictures to iphoto, so I upgraded to aperture 3 to so the databases would be swapable to iphoto. In that process up updating Aperture all of my photos are still in aperture, but all of my albums are now empty. So I lost all of my organization. Any ideas what happened and how I can undo it? I did not have a time machine backup and did not backup the database before the upgrade.
You may try to repair your Aperture Library. This should have been done before upgrading, because a corruption of the library can cause problems when upgrading, but perhaps you can still fix the missing albums. Use the Aperture Library First Aid tools (see: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library: Aperture 3 User Manual) to repair permissions and repair the database, or to rebuild it, if necessary. But make a backup of the library, before doing this, just to be safe.

Upgrading to Aperture 3, my Aperture 2 library got smaller (60GB vs. 102GB)
Moving from an old MacBook Pro running Aperture 2.1.4 to a new MacBook Pro, with Aperture 3.1.
I copied the Aperture 2 Library (55,000 images, nearly all referenced) to the new machine, and opened it in Aperture 3.1, which then upgraded my Library (overnight process).
Now I have two Libraries on the new machine: Aperture Library_original, and Aperture Library.
The new Aperture Library seems to work fine, and has the same number of photos as the original.
The original seems untouched, and if I try to open it in Aperture 3, it prompts me (again) to upgrade it.
Here is my concern:
My new Library is only 60GB, whereas the original is 102GB.
What, if anything is missing? It seems to work fine, but I have not been able to check all 55K photos!
Searching online, I can't find any reference to Library size decreasing with the upgrade from Aperture 2 to 3. If anything, some complain that it becomes larger in Aperture 3.
Does anyone know what is going on, or how to check that my new Library is complete?Your previews are best set to your screen size, the ideal preview size having an asterix next to it.
Previews are relevant for referenced workflows, sharing with iLife and other apps, otherwise up to you.

After upgrading to Aperture 3 I had to 'upgrade' all files. When this was done, there was an Aperture 3 library and the original Aperture 2 library. Are the two libraries identical and can I safely trash the Aperture 2 library?
If the upgrade completed successfully and you are running Aperture 3 on the converted library and you're sure all the images that were in the old library are in the new library then you could delete the Aperture 2 library.
However I'm the paranoid type and when it comes to deleting images I'm always hesitant. If you can fine a place to archive the old library that would be your a better option.
At a minimum I would keep the old library around for a month or so after switching to Aperture 3 just to make sure in case something pops up.

HT3946 I upgraded from Aperture 1.x to 3.5.1
I upgraded to Aperture 3.5.1 and have run into an issue.
I upgraded the software and also moved all my originals from my MBP's disk to an external storage (WD passport). A few projects now have images that are seemingly offline. The browser shows the thumbnails but the photos are apparently offline. How do I get the application to see the originals that are lying right there on the disk? I tried relocate originals from the FILE menu but it doesn't seem to work. Is there a way of pointing the software to the entire folder?
Help please!
Thank you!
regards,
dvI upgraded the software and also moved all my originals from my MBP's disk to an external storage (WD passport).
Did you move the originals manually, using the Finder? If you used the command "File > Relocate originals" Aperture should have had no problems to keep track of them.
How do I get the application to see the originals that are lying right there on the disk? ? I tried relocate originals from the FILE menu but it doesn't seem to work.
To reconnect the originals use the command "File > Locate Referenced files", not "relocate".
Select all images that are ofline at once from a smart search with the added rule "File Status is offline (or missing)".
Then use the command "File > Locate referenced Files".
You will see a window with two panels: In the upper part select an image that needs reconnect.
In the lower part select the location of the original file.
When the "Reconnect" buttons become active, use the button "Reconnect all"

Upgrading to Aperture 3 on Mac Book Pro
When I try to open Aperture after upgrading to 3 I get the following error "Insufficient Disk Space"
"There is not enough free space on your Aperture Library Volume"
I have 28 GB available HD space left. Can anybody advise on how much space I need to open 3?
Thank youHi Ngiri
I don't think the issue is directly with Aperture itself. Instead, since you've just performed the upgrade to v3, the process is that of the once-only upgrade of your Aperture library file. Aperture v3 uses a newer file format than earlier versions.
How big is your Aperture library file? If you're unsure of where to find the answer, the file itself is most likely located at the top level of your Pictures folder. ie /Users/ngiri/Pictures/Aperture Library (If it's not there, you've relocated it elsewhere, so you probably don't need me telling you where that is... )
There's info about the upgrade process in the final section of the [Aperture v3.0.3 Release notes|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2518]: 'A note on upgrading your Aperture library'.
Aperture temporarily uses extra space on your hard drive during the upgrade process. This is for the purpose of backing up critical library info and insuring the integrity of your data during upgrade. If you don't have adequate space on your hard drive to accommodate the upgrade, Aperture will display a warning dialog. You may need to move your library to a different hard drive with more space in order to upgrade it, and then move it back to the original drive when the upgrade is complete. Any space used by Aperture during the upgrade is released and made available to you again once the upgrade has finished.
Hope this helps...

Failure when upgrading to Aperture 3
I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I am installing Aperture 3 on it. I have already done this process on my iMac with no issues. I had no issues installing Aperture 2 and upgrading that version of the software, but when I try to upgrade to Aperture 3 I recieve an error. The error simply says the upgrade failed and to contact the manufacturer. I was wondering if maybe I put the serial number in wrong, but I do not think that is the case. I cannot get to the screen where I would put in the serial number, so I am assuming it was correct. I have had the software since it was first released, so I have no support from Apple, does anyone have any ideas what I can do?
Looking at the error log the last line CSSMERR_TP_CERT_EXPIRED seems to indicate a problem some were having installing off an older DVD. Basically there is a developer certificate that is signed and dated that tells the OS the software being installed is OK. People had success bypassing this check by setting the system date back, installing the software and then resetting the date.
Try looking at Install failure for Aperture 3 on my MacBook Pro. Operating on Lion. and Attempting to install Aperture 3.1: installation fails These are two threads that discuss this. -
Hi, I have just upgraded from Aperture 2 to 3 and cant find the DEsaturation brush which I used to select from Image>Edit in A2 and does not come amongst the brushes from the Photos>Add Adjustment> or Quick Brushes in A3. Does anyone know where to find this essential tool?
there is no quick brush that you can do directly from the tools on the top of the screen if you're working in Full Screen mode?
In addition to the "Enhance" sliders that Frank pointed to, I see the "Saturation" in the "Brushes" Drop-down in Full-screen mode.
Only you have to set the amount of saturation first to a low value using the slider in the "Saturation" brick of the adjustment panel.
You may have to add the "Saturation" brick first to the "Adjustment" tab from "Add Adjustment > Quick Brushes > Saturation"
To add a "Saturation" brick permanently to your adjustments click the cogwheel in the Saturation brick and enable "Add to Default Set".
You can also save the setting - with the adjustment slider positioned as you want it - as an Effect:
Effects > Save as an effect.
