Which Metadata option when exporting from Aperture?....

When Exporting a single Original (never edited) CR2 file from Aperture 3.6 to my Desktop there are 3 Metadata options :
1) - Don't include IPTC
2) - Include IPTC
3) - Create IPTC4XMP Sidecar File
As I have no idea what 'IPTC' etc is, which option is best to later Import into Capture One, please?

IPTC are all Metadata you assigned in Aperture or in other applications, as opposed to the EXIF metadata embedded in the photos by the camera. The camera tags would be in the EXIF.
The get an idea, what is in clouded in EXIF and IPTC, open the Inspector in Aperture in the sidebar and switch the view to "IPTC info". That will show you a list of all tags, that will be included, when you export from Aperture with IPTC included.
You can only export modified versions with IPTC, since Aperture will not modify the original file on export. That is why you can add a sidecar files, that lists all tags, and many applications are able to read this sidecar file, when you import photos.
I want the camera EXIF data to be exported with the image file.
The camera EXIF are already embedded in the original image files. When you export the originals, the EXIF will be included, independent of your setting for IPTC.
You can test, what will be exported, by opening exported files in Preview and opening the Inspector (Tools menu > Show Inspector)
You can see all EXIF and IPTC tags that have been exported with the photo.

What is the best settings to use in the export manager when exporting from Aperture 3.5 to Photoshop cc. tiff? psd? 16bit? dpi?

What are the best settings to use in the export manager when exporting from Aperture 3.5 to Photoshop cc for editing?
Should I use tiff or psd?
8bit or 16bit?
How many dpi?

That will depend on the photometric resolution of your originals. For jpegs it would be a waste of space to convert them to a higher resolution than 8bit, but if your images actually have already more than 8bit, you will want to preserve this quality. Then he 16bit format will help to prevent color clipping.
Both tiff and psd will preserve the lossless workflow. With Photoshop as external editor I would use he psd format for better support of layers and transparency, e.g., when you want to create watermark files.
The dpi will only matter, when you export the file for printing.

'Unable to quarantine' when exporting from Aperture to a NAS

I have scanned a lot of images as TIFF (approx 28.000), and they are on an External Drive, and I imported them into Aperture (3.3) as referenced files.
Now I want to have a a more workable environment, because the TIFF's are 140 MB each.
So the idea is:
- Export from Aperture to a NAS drive
- Create a new Aperture Library and import them (again as referenced files)
The NAS is a WD MyBook Live Duo that is attached to my Time Machine.
The current Aperture Library and the future Aperture Library will be on my iMac's HD.
I just exported 405 images and in the log I see 405 times:
1/3/13 9:29:34.000 PM kernel[0]: Aperture[54224] Unable to quarantine `/Volumes//Pictures/Modellen_Ref_Files/Mulder_Koosje/JHWA_9601M-25.jpg': 22 (error suppressed)
(Time and filename differ ofcourse.)
However all 405 images were indeed exported.
I read the thread :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20274081#20274081
https://discussions.apple.com/message/20294802#20294802
from Steffen4712
So before continuing with the rest of the 28.000 images I want to make sure that I will not run into problems.
So can somebody explain to me or point me to a discussion so that I can try and understand what this Quarantine thing is trying to do?
Thanks,
Jan

I managed to find a way to get things done without getting the error.
Workflow from the start:
- scanned negatives and stored them as TIFF files on an external HD
- Started Aperture and imported them as referenced files
- added keywords and adjustments
I tried:
- export them as JPG to a NAS drive
This give the error "Unable to quarantine 22 (error suppressed)"
I tried :
- remove extra attribute from TIFF file on external HD (using xattr -c)
- export them as JPG to a NAS drive
This give the error "Unable to quarantine 22 (error suppressed)"
I tried:
- export them as JPG to my HD
- remove extra attribute from JPG (using xattr -c)
- switch to "new" Aperture Library and import them and choosing the NAS as place to store them
This give the error "Unable to quarantine 22 (error suppressed)"
I tried:
- export them as JPG to my HD
- remove extra attribute from JPG (using xattr -c)
- using Finder and copy them to temporary folder on my NAS
- open "new" Aperture Library and import them and choosing the NAS as place to store them (effectively relocating them)
No errors were seen in the system.log
Conlusion, apparently Aperture wants to quarantine them when moving them to the NAS and Finder does not.

Where is the aiff option when exporting from GB09 to iTunes?

ITunes preferences has aiff option for imports but whatever I try in GB to export I only seem to have AAC or MP3 option. I have tried AAC but get annoying clicks on the track.
Is there anyway to export a song from GB09 to iTunes as an aiff file. (I had no problem with this in GB06)

The clicking may be your metronome. Go to Preferences->General and check your metronome settings. If it's set to Record and Playback, you'll get the clicking playing back the song and possibly during export.

How do I export from Aperture to iPhoto?

Ok, I am very new at all of this, and find it quite confusing.
I took several hundred raw photos and imported them into Aperture. I believe they are all in a 'project', the yellow box looking icon? Then, I created numerous folders inside this project, in which I carefully sorted all my photos by subject - about 18 folders. Then, I worked with each folder, fine tuning each image, and adding exif metadata, and rating each image. So far so good.
Now, I want to bring all this images (as full size jpegs) into iPhoto.. this is where I am getting bogged down. There is an export function in Aperture, and an import function in iPhoto: which do I use?
I have been experimenting with various scenarios, but nothing seems to be working the way I want.. specifically, to have all my images in iPhoto - IN THE SAME STRUCTURE as I have in Aperture. When I did manage to bring them into iPhoto, they all came over in one big massive event, leaving all my sorting and ratings behind. This can't be right.. I don't want to resort them all again, moving them into the appropriate folders. And I don't want to have to re-enter the exif metadata and ratings again.
Can someone please help me with this?

Export from Aperture and then import to iPhoto.
Alternatively, you can share your Previews with iPhoto but that gets only the Preview.
FWIW: your workflow makes no sense. It's like writing your novel in TextEdit then opening it in Word to Spell Check and then copying it back to TextEdit. Why not just write your novel in Word? Aperture is not an editor. It's a complete replacement for iPhoto. It will do everything that iPhoto does, and then more. Or if you want to stick with iPhoto, get an editor and use it as an external editor in that.

"Milky" or faint results when exporting from AE to FCP

(Accidently posted to FCP Express forum-- whoops!)
I've been using After Effects for years now to create graphics for our Avid projects, and the QT results have always been great. Clean, sharp moving graphics. But now that I've been using FCP, I'm not exactly happy when I export my Quicktime graphics from After Effects to FCP: they're extremely "milky" and faint/fuzzy when viewed from FCP over an NTSC monitor. I have tried various codecs when exporting: DV/NTSC, Animation, Component-- all with the same results.
I have read other threads with similar comments (even the thread that mentioned "milky" results when exporting from FCP to AE and back) but none of the suggestions/remarks helped in my situation.
I'm sure others have experienced this. Any suggestions?
Settings:
After Effects comp: NTSC/DV Preset (720 x 480, lower field, etc.)
Export Codecs: DV/DVCPro-NTSC, Animation, Component (all with the same milky results)
Final Cut: Sequence Preset "DV/NTSC 48 Khz"
Also tried using, as one thread suggested, the "Uncompressed 8 bit NTSC 48 Khz" preset and no difference
Side note: I'm using Final Cut in this system outputting to both DV video and Betacam video, using an Aja card for the Beta. Both DV and Beta results look the same (going straight thru the decks-to-NTSC monitor) and they both use the same "DV/NTSC 48 Khz" sequence preset-- except where I changed it to "Uncompressed 8 bit". If I use Animation or Component as my export codec from AE, naturally, I have to render to play the clip back in the timeline. It even looks milky or faint on the FCP source/viewer screens!
And yes, I've checked the NTSC monitor-- a Sony Trinitron PVM-20 monitor. And I've looked at the results on other monitors and even regular TVs. Milky/faint video all around.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

Is this on files with alpha channels? Have you tried
changing the Alpha type? Are you having
pre-multiplication problems?
No, they don't have alpha channels. But I did try, when rendering with Animation, changing the colors to "Millions +" which was something I read on another thread. Same results.
Basically, these are After Effects projects with simple backgrounds and moving text. I'm not doing any layering with alpha channels-- like lower third supers.
However, whenever I use Apple programs like LiveType or Motion, the NTSC results look like they did while I was creating the projects with these programs before I rendered them.

Can you have a PDF fit on the viewer's screen automatically when exporting from InDesign CS4?

Can you have a PDF fit on the viewer's screen automatically when exporting from InDesign CS4?

If you were to upgrade to InDesign CS5 or CS5.5 and if you exported as Adobe PDF (Interactive), you could set the View settings for Page Layout and Zoom.
While, as Jongware points out, its possible for individual users to override that option (Preferences > Page Display > Default Layout and Zoom), the number who will actually do that is actually very tiny.

Export from Aperture to edit in Windows Live Photo Gallery

Hi.
I'm hoping to work collaboratively with a colleague, in a scenario where I take & edit photos, then pass them over for a possible final touch up before being forwarded to clients.
I use Mac OSX 10.6 and Aperture. He uses Windows Vista and Windows Live Photo Gallery.
The problem we've come up against is this: he is unable to edit the image I've exported from Aperture. I'm exporting as .JPG, and he's able to read them ok - i.e. load it into Windows Live Photo Gallery, but not alter the image.
Does anyone have a similar workflow, exporting from Aperture, then editing in Windows Live Photo Gallery?
Thanks in advance,
PB

Hi Frank.
Thanks for the response.
Agreed, the pertinent question is why can't my colleague edit the JPG exported by Aperture. It's probably also worth pointing out, the same problem occurs with JPGs exported from iPhoto.
The Windows software usually plays nicely with JPGs by all acounts, just not the ones I send - which I do via eMail or my public space on Mobile Me incidently.
So, another key question is: all settings being equal (color profile, quality, etc.) are the JPGs as produced by iPhoto and Aperture indistinguishable from those produced by other apps on other platforms - i.e. does the use of JPG enforce a common standard?
If that is the case, I suspect ours might be a permissions issue.
According to the Microsoft support page on editing in Windows Live Photo Gallery, the inability to edit a picture is commonly caused by unsupported file type, or read-only attribute set on the file.
Unfortunately, he and I are not in the same place, and he's not particularly au-fait with this type of problem solving. Hence, before involving him, I'd like to know:
1. it's possible (i.e. someone else does it), and,
2. what's involved (at my end and/or his).
Thanks again,
PB

Sharpness APERTURE vs iPHOTO~file exported from Aperture worse than iPhoto

HEY.
i'm recently using Aperture for my Photo Editing work.I found that everything Good and Perfect after fine tune and preview in the Window of Aperture...while Export it to the Jpeg (originaly image import from jpeg file) I found it's a bit loose from what i see in the Window Aperture...means,Loose the Sharpness...whole image getting un-sharp or s'ld i say added gausion blur of feel??
Once i import it(the one exported from Aperture) into iPhoto and Export it (even down size to 800 of diamention) it became Sharp and nice colour tone while compare with the one which Export from Aperture!!!!
Why?
In the Export setting of Aperture i do set the Quality to max 12 and 300dpi even...
Need your hand...thanks!!

WARNING! The sharpness problem is occurring in iPhoto modifications as well! I'm running Tiger and Leopard at the same time on 2 different computers - SAME EXACT SHARPNESS problems. The problem is NOT the OS - it's in the APPLE Photo Aps!

Photos in FCE; export from Aperture in target size?

hi all.
I'm planning to place photos from Aperture into my FCE project, with the photos fading from one to the next. they won't be full screen, less than half. to get the best final quality, do I need to sharpen and export from Aperture so that the photos are placed within the FCE project at 100% without scaling?
cheers,
Gregory

Saturation Loss When Exporting from Lightroom.

This happens to me when exporting from Lightroom 2 or 3. It happens regardless of the color profile, file format, bit depth, image size, compression, or the method of export. I regularly profile my one-year-old iMac monitor with an Eye One Display 2. My working color space for Photoshop CS4 is ProPhoto. After exporting, I am viewing the images in Photoshop, Safari, Firefox and Apple Preview, with the same result. I have used pretty much all the available export methods in Lightroom, including exporting with Lighroom ad-ons such as SlideshowPro. And, conversely, if I edit an image to my liking ourside of Lightroom, there is a saturation increase when I import it into Lightroom. The effect tends to be most obvious and bothersome with shots taken outside on sunny days, with lots of blues and greens. I am shooting raw files with a Canon 5d II and I use the Adobe Standard profile in Lightroom.
There is a section at the back of Martin Evening's Lightroom book where he talks about the Lightroom color space and Lightroom versus Photoshop curves, which seems to relate to what I am seeing, but I have the feeling that what I seeing is more pronounced than what he is talking about there. It is a real dullng of the look, not merely a slight difference in how the colors are rendered.

Looks like Lightroom doesn't like your display profile.
Try removing the profile (don't know how to do it on a Mac) to leave your display uncalibrated. Are the colors still different in Lightroom and Photoshop?

Export from Aperture builds file structure like projects/albums

Hi!
I use Aperture but also want to use iPhoto (for iLife-Integration - and for the superb presentation facitilities like slideshos with Ken Burns effect etc.).
I´d like to know whether there is a possibility to export from Aperture - perhaps via Automator-script - that the structure of projects, folders, albums, etc. is beeing transferred into the same structure but made of folders. The picture-files themselves should be jpgs.
Can something like that be realized in Automator? Or is there another possibility to get such a result?
regards,
Sandro

When you export versions via the export versions window you have the opportunity to specify the output folder structure for the images.
So for example you can select a subfolder structure using the images year/month/day or the project name or the image year/month etc.
You'll need to look through the options and see what settings will work for you.

How to improve quality of pdfs when exporting from pages?

how to improve quality of pdfs when exporting from pages? Any suggestions?

Print to pdf and don't use anything with transparency.
Have you ensured all your images are actually high enough resolution for whatever purpose (which you haven't said) you want?

Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration. Why?

Changing frame rate when exporting from iMovie '09 using quicktime has no impact on duration. Why?
I have a file created by digitizing an 8mm film at a rate of 24 fps. I would like to create a downloaded movie at a frame rate of 15 fps. The Export using Quicktime option seems to provide that capability but the resulting file has the same duration as the original 24 fps file. How can I get the exported movie to be slowed down?

joegez,
There is a feature you can use to slow down the video. In the project, move the mouse pointer over the clip, then click the gear icon. That brings up the Inspector. Click the Clip tab. Then you will see a feature there called Speed. Move the slider to the left to slow down the clip. Or you can enter a percentage in the box on the right.
Hope this solves the problem for you.
