Version 1.1.2 is nice, but when do we expect the next version?

I have used Aperture fairly extensive this summer and saw a boost in speed this summer when 1.1.2 arrived. I have throwed in 5000+ images and are getting to grips with it.
Still, I expect we all want more and running it on my 1,67 Powerbook with 2GB of RAM with a 23" screen, I find myself wanting:
-More speeeed. I only shoot RAW and redrawing and adjusting RAWs are painfully slow. Some of it may be due to the lack of a fast graphics card, the other problem is perhaps a slow drive. Perhaps a sata cardbus card and a fast external drive will help significantly? Anyone with an aperture library on a fast external drive on a powerbook that can share their experiences?
-More adjustments
-Lens distortions
-Curves

You really want one of the Macbook Pros to speed things up. The video card improvement alone would be significant. I don't think you are really disk bound at this point given the amount of memory you have.
-More adjustments
-Lens distortions
I really really love to see a lens distortion correction, and also a localized color adjustment tool like CS2 or Lightroom have.
-Curves
I know a lot of people would like to see this, but really you should play with Levels more as it is a hybrid of Levels and Curves in Photoshop. Play around with the quarter-tone controls and see what you can do. Basically Aperture Levels is kind of like a Curves tool with three adjustment points, where you don't have to place a lot of interemediate points to lock the curve down for some operations. Furthermore you can adjust Luminence/RGB and color channel curves seperatly and combine the effect of both.

  • Windows 7 Install failed - Boot camp partition to NTFS during formatting worked but when i clicked onto the 'next' button, it won't allow me to proceed any further. Help!

    Hi there,
    I used the following manual (http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1583/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.7.pdf) in attempt to install windows 7 onto my mac but I get an error at Step 3 - windows installation process
    I selected the BOOTCAMP partitioned drive as mentioned, clicked the advance options, and then reformatted that drive. What happens next is the drive changes name from BOOTCAMP to 'untitled'. I then tried to click 'next' button but it won't let me proceed any further and didn't state clearly why it couldn't go through (instead says to check the log file for reason why - but then I have not clue where this log file is located in as well!). 
    I had a look at that partitioned drive after to find that it is NTFS format (when I went back to OS x) so it appears that I am doing the right thing so that shouldn't be the issue..
    Does anyone know what could be wrong? or what I should try to do next?
    Could it be a format error because when i click onto the 'untitled' drive, there is nothing in there.

    Hi Steve1904,
    So you have use the backup and Restore to restore your files from Windows XP to Windows 7 directly?
    This should be considered not work.
    If you would like to transfer files between Windows XP and Windows 7, you need another tool called Windows Easy Transfer.
    See the article below if you would like to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7:
    Upgrading from Windows XP to Windows 7
    If possible, follow the steps there, then things should be OK.

  • When can we expect the next 'Zen Vision:

    The title explains itself. I've had my black Zen Vision: M (30GB) since February and it's almost coming up on its 2 year... I've been waiting for any word on another line from Creative. Would anyone know anything about 'em Perhaps when Creative may at least announce something at some convention What and when I can't wait. I'm in need for a successor to my Zen Vision: M. Thanks in advance, guys.

    This is the successor: the Creative Zen (http://us.creative.com/products/prod...4&product=6999) They're definitely coming out with the 32 GB version of it as well. I even confirmed it today when I called them asking about it. But I got the standard "we don't know when it will be released yet". It should be soon though because the Spec page lists it already (and the 8GB one is noticably missing there) I'm still holding off on this one though because I haven't heard if it definitely supports Rhapsody To Go yet, and no one from Creative seems to respond to my questions regarding it. I keep getting a lot of "it should", but no one really knows. Anyway, hope that hel

  • Nokia C3 - When to expect the next FW update (Open...

    Yesterday my two Nokia C3-00s finally arrived (one for me and one as a Christmas present for my girlfriend so we can chat while not together), both equipped with the 04.60 FW version and I was more than disappointed to find out what a completely useless piece of equipment they are after I faced the severe WLAN issue (and the fact that it turned out Ovi Browser is not supported for this Nokia model, but that's just details).
    I bought these phones just because I wanted a simple Wi-Fi connection for basic messaging and I bet 99% of the people who bought C3-00 gave their money to Nokia exactly because of that, but no, it can't even load a chat client properly and, because of the need of confirming the type of connection every two seconds, all network-dependent applications crash or log me out. I can't use Wi-Fi, I can't use Communities, I can't use web messaging, I can't use Mail, I can't browse the web properly, I can't do nothing on it.
    So Nokia guys, you have all the right hardware already in the C3-00, all you have to do is change FEW LINES of code to fix it! I begin to think there's some kind of deal between Nokia and service providers, I really don't find any other reasonable explanation for this nonsense. People in the web already started to talk, you know, this one is not just gonna pass by. If you advertise a product mainly by noting it has Wi-Fi, it must have a proper one or otherwise a wave of lawsuits will follow, believe me. Your customers are not morons.
    And after this angry intro (excuse me for being so emotional since yesterday's "surprise" I got from Nokia Europe) I just want to ask the Nokia devs and the people above them:
    When can we expect the next FW update that WILL FIX the Wi-Fi issue, enabling the use of WLAN without automatically switching to GPRS and WITHOUT the need of confirmations that drop every connection, web application or login process you start?
    Thanks in advance,
    Ivan from Berlin

    Dear Jimmy,
    my two C3-00 phones are not locked to any network, I bought them directly from shop.nokia.de. Can you try some day to actually help someone instead of repeating that "we have to wait", that "it takes time", etc.? Just checked your posting history and 90% of your recent posts are full of **** and you never say anything helpful (just see your two posts in this thread). Maybe you're trying to make your billionth post here or just pretend to be a Nokia employee so you earn some imaginary "virtual respect", I don't know. But please, when you don't have anything to say (because you don't know ****, not even the date of release or which areas/models are supported), please don't spam.

  • Keep getting a message that firefox is outdated but when trying to update the download is the same version in mac os

    keep getting a message that firefox is outdated but when trying to update the download is the same version on mac os. The version is 34.0.5 .As soon as I launch the brwswer i get the update message.

    hello dbajayo, your useragent (the information the browser sends to websites to identify its version) - apparently mistakenly - shows you're on firefox version 3.6.
    probably some sort of toolbar or adware has overwritten it. please refer to this article in order to reset the user-agent settings in firefox: [[Websites say that Firefox is outdated or incompatible even though it's the latest version]]

  • I just order 8 calendars from iPhoto and they came to me fine. Now I need to order two more but when I go thru the process I get a message  saying:unable to assemble calendar. There is a probleme with the photo with the file name"(Null)"   more........ .

    Would someone be able to explain to me the following issue with Iphoto?
    I ordered 8 same calendars for my soccer team and received them fine. Although a couple of pictures on it are a little off (out of focus). I need to order two more of the same calendars but when I go thru the process ireceive an error message saying:
    "Unable to to assemble  calendar" There is a problem with the photo with the file name "(Null)" The full resolution version of this photo either cannot be located or is corrupt. Please replace this photo or delete it from your calendar.
    How can  I fine this "corrupt" photo? How did it go thru with the first batch of calendars but won't go thru now?
    Thank you for your help.   

    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 #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - 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.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - 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.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • TS2830 Transfer songs onto Music listfor nano, comes up with sync error 13019 still appears to have transferred to music list on nano while plugged in but when you search on the unplugged ipod not there.

    When i transfer a song from my itunes library to ipod nano it says "cannot syn 13019" it appears to transfer song to the music list on ipod but when you disconnect from the computer the songs aren't on the ipod

    No, I can't use a charger - I need to recharge the iPod off the computer. (I'm often charging it while traveling with no access to a wall plug).
    What you describe in your situation is completely different from what I'm talking about: You have iTunes on and you are syncing the iPod, and then you eject it from within iTunes. What I'm talking about is NEVER having iTunes on, and just plugging the iPod into the USB port and just recharging it, nothing else.
    My goal: I want to be able to plug in, recharge, and unplug the iPod without ever touching the mouse or the keyboard or interacting with the computer at all.
    I 100% know this is possible because that is the setup I've had for months, and it worked fine. But when I recently updated to iPod software version 1.2, some setting was changed and I can't figure out what. I know it is very simple, the solution, but I've forgotten how I did it in the first place.

  • I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out".  No probs with old computer, just the new one.  I'm onto my third new computer - same problem.  Any suggestions please?

    I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs using the new computer, there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out" during play back, similar to a small scratch on a vinyl record.  Although when I play the same song over again, the "miss" occurs in a different location during the song.  No probs with old computer, just the new one.  I'm onto my third new computer - same problem.  Any suggestions please?

    You don't say which version of iTunes you are using, but the symptoms you describe have been encountered by some users with the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.
    There is an alternative version for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
    iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
    that seems to address the most of the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version of 12.1.0.77 - including problems with Bluetooth speakers where either sound is degraded or completely absent.  The alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer.  The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
    Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8).  It may also be necessary to ensure that your Bluetooth speakers are active and selected as the default audio device before you run iTunes.
    If this doesn't address the issue, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.

  • TS3212 i downloaded itunes on my windows 7 computer, but when i try running the setup file, it says it's not a valid win32 file. how do i fix this?

    i just bought a brand new HP computer with the windows 7 and i'm trying to download itunes on my computer. I've used the email and a new one for the download. it'll go through the process of downloading the itunes setup, but when i go to the downloads folder in my computer and click on the file, it says it's not a valid Win32 file and won't open.  I've tried downloading the 64 bit version to se if that was the problem, but even that won't work.  please help!

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different PC. (If you're on a 32-bit Windows system, try to download on a different 32-bit Windows system.) Copy the iTunesSetup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunesSetup.exe file.

    Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
    Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
    Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.
