import aperture library

Have used Aperture since several years and train migrate to Lightroom.

I use a MBP, Yosemite running. 5.7 Lightroom has a plugin option to import the Aperture library. I managed to import the library; but all of the album to the library names have disappeared. It created a folder for each of the days apparently. Is there a way to get around this? I shoot for sport for my weekly local, so with regular events and sports, the photo stream is regular. Any recommendations? (I am nervous...)

You have whatever it is listed under the tab collections?  Although the default value for a managed library of opening is to make duplicates, in dated folders, your projects must transfer to the Collections. Don't you see a related version records dated in your collections?

  • Import Aperture library to LR (10 of Windows).  Cannot select the library - treated as a folder!

    Hi all

    I'm trying to import my Aperture (about 15 images of k) on Windows 10 LR library.  I copied the library directly from the Finder to an external HD and from there to my hard drive of the PC.  When I browser in the library, it is considered to be a folder rather than a file.  This means that when I click on library.aplibrary to open, the button is 'Open' and that selecting this bore until the next level of the subfolder, rather that select the import library.

    Any suggestions?  Is there something I need to do to prepare it for export at the library on the Mac?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi TrudeBordello,

    You would not be able to import the Aperture library on the Windows computer in Lightroom, because the Plugin is designed to read in the library on Mac.

    Please follow the document: Help. Import photos from iPhoto and Aperture (Mac OS)

    Then I suggest you to import the Lightroom library records.

  • Import Aperture to Lightroom library questions

    Fully, I have to confess that maybe it's my fault as a beginner LR, but the import of my opening is an unusable mess and I need help/advice! I use LR CC and opening 3.6.

    I have 1 library in about 57 000 pictures opening. Before importing to LR, I checked for files offline, accurate, that opening is expected to generate large previews and selected the option keep my files referenced (as opposed to pulling all the images in a LR catalog).

    My photos are all on a disk external HARD with a hierarchy like this:

    /photos_volume

    / < year of filming folder >

    / < month shoot folder >

    / < MM-JJ-AA name of shooting >

    / < MM-JJ-AA name of shooting >

    .. and so on. Large. Oh, and the files/projects in Aperture are arranged in the same way as folders on the volume.

    Yes, after the execution of the importer of opening (who ran - NOT a JOKE - 2.5 days), I find myself with a catalog not organized. It seems that he took a modified photos of a given meeting then put them in individual folders, named "MM-DD-AA. These are all JPEGs - OK, fine, I can live with that. But the worst thing is that I found myself with a jumbled folder hierarchy. There is a folder called "04" with all my shoots since April, regardless of the year (because my shoots all begin with the number of the month). However, for the folder called "07", there maybe 25% of my photos from July, the rest are outside of this folder and the files that are on the same hierarchical level.

    Bottom line, it didn't even close organized the way it is in the opening or the way I want, and I don't know if I should just fix everything by hand over time, or to small libraries in Aperture (maybe one for each year?) and import it.

    Thanks in advance for help or advice!

    Hello!

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems of migration. Examine the options defined in the Aperture import dialog box

    If you decide to generate previews of size for the adjusted images (1) the section referenced will have an additional option. To let your files exactly where they check the first option in the referenced section (2)

    If you do not check the second option in the reference section (3), then you will get the additional folders created like the ones you describe. In your example, you mention that not all 07 files are there. This could be because not all of them have been adjusted in Aperture. If this second option in the referenced section is checked then the previews are added to the same folders as their original images are in and none of the additional folders are created. That leaves you with the same folder structure, you started with and a few other files for adjustments.

    You might want to set up a small Aperture library with a subset of your images and experimenting with the importer of Lightroom settings to get the result you expect. Once you have the good value options so you can turn it loose your complete library.

    Oh, also be aware that if one of the images in your library are actually MANAGED and UNREFERENCED they will be drawn in records created by Lightroom.

    Hope that helps!

  • How to import the Aperture library in Lightroom

    How to import an Aperture library?

    Hi Billy. See the following page, which has received instructions: Adobe Lightroom

  • Importing a library file (adding) corrupts the content.

    When importing (adding) a file of Aperture library to my main library, a lot of mistakes is introduced, including a link to the (masters) badly referenced original. If others have reported this? How do you work around?

    I saw a similar problem after testing cleaning applications such as CleanMyMac.Did you try similar request?

    But if an Aperture library has a slight alteration, it can worsen after importation from another library.

    You could fix the two libraries before trying to merge them by importing.  See the manual page on how to repair the library: action = 10% 26tasks http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=27%26se = true

    In any case, I would like to make a backup copy of these two libraries before trying to merge libraries.

    If the referenced original links are apparently wrong, you might want to rebuild the thumbnails:

    Select the images with the bad link and use the command ' Photos > generate thumbnails "to recreate the thumbnails.

  • Access to Aperture library is corrupted

    I (accidentally and stupidly) disconnected external hard drive of my Macbook Pro 2015 (El Capitan 10.11.4) without eject after downloading pictures from a card in a 3.6 Aperture library. So I now can't come back in the Aperture library. I use a Capsule 2 TB for backup

    Here is what happened:

    • After you import the images successfully in a library Aperture since a card SD camera, I clicked on the dialog box to remove the images from the SD card and eject it (my normal routine).
    • Then, instead of removing the SD card, I accidentally unplugged the external hard drive instead.
    • When I opened opening (with the reconnected JEP), I got the following message:
      • There was an error opening the database for the library ' / Volumes/PCSP PROJECT PCSP/HD Image Library.aplibrary.
    • I leave Aperture and then it reopened and now pressed the keys Option and command (as shown).
    • This produces a dialog box with three repair or rebuild options. By clicking any option produces the result:
      • "Image Library" is Time Machine backup.  " Image Library" only opens for Time Machine to finish.
    • Time Machine did not back off. To be on the safe side, I then did a back up in Time Machine. I got the same results once more once the backup is complete. I tried again with Time Machine off. Always the same result.

    I tried power off of the laptop computer and the Time Capsule and restart them. No luck.

    I have now three problems:

    1. I need to change something in the system that says opening that it's OK to repair/rebuild the library
    2. I need to recover/repair my library
    3. And, absolutely, I want to get the pictures of 8-10 I was trying to download in the first place.

    I need some instructions very simple to achieve. While much, I use a computer for regular applications, I have instructions for treatment of difficulties on what is happening in the background - which guess I know what I want to. When I get a dialog box with options to choose from, unless I already understand what it is, I have some really bad. I am a retiree and there is still a lot of stuff tech that goes over my head.

    • I read somewhere that the program is being fooled by the existence of a file which makes mistakenly think Time Machine is in fact always save something.
    • I saw the reference to .plist and. InProgress files - but I'm pretty confused as to what & where they are and what they're doing - and what I would do with them.
    • It occurs to me that if I just restore a previous version of the library (from Time Machine) I will probably not recover photos that I had just downloaded.

    If anyone can give me some step by step instructions, I would be most grateful. These images relate to a project of the childhood care and means a lot to me (and others, too). In addition, all images have detailed metadata stored with them and so I'm eager to preserve it, too.

    Sorry, it's this long post.

    Check, if there is a lock file in the Aperture library:

    • Select the library to open in the Finder, ctrl - click, and then select "view the contents of the package:
    • In the folder that opens, navigate to the Database/apdb/lockfile.pid folder.  If this file exists, move the file to the trash. Dn't touch anything else.
    • Close the window Finder and try to launch the opening.

    Does it work?

  • Transfer Mac Air Aperture library for iMac.

    Transfer Mac Air Aperture library for iMac. I placed the library is on an external HD; connected to the iMac; switched to the libraries on the ext HD; go to file > import > library-however the dialog box has the desired gray library. It shows another Aperture library (the iMac original Aperture library that I've got on the same post HD for the trip).

    Any thoughts?

    Could solve the problem now?  Usually only the library that is currently open in Aperture will be grayed out. your screenshot looks you had currently open "Library Aperture 2" opening and could open "Aperture library.

    Try again to move to the correct library that you want to import.

  • Importing opening: place of importation of library with files remotely

    I have an Aperture library with images k 70 ~ on a connected network drive and the Aperture on my Mac library. I would use this same configuration in Lightroom.

    When I use the importer that he finds all the images, but it seems to copy somewhere is it possible to leave the image files where they are and to create the catalog of the library without copying them to a new destination?

    Thank you.

    You forgot the option. In the first dialog box, click the Options button and there is a setting for the files referenced by leaving in place.

    With the help of Yosemite, I like Photos app in general; have big Aperture library, although I use rarely opening Tools. Advantages, disadvantages and pitfalls related to the migration of Photos?

    Opening was a pro the Pro amateur-oriented or serious app, usually shooting Raw, probably on a digital SLR.

    If that's you then pictures will miss a lot for you.

    If this isn't the case, then opening was probably overkill for your needs.

    If you like the pictures then this is the way to go.

  • Corrupted Aperture library

    I have a large Aperture (430 GB) library, I keep several copies on different disks and Macs. Recently, I applied the operation "reprocess photos" to all my photos in order to take advantage of Apple's latest image processing technology. I had found applying this to a number of photos (versions actually) that there is no significant improvement.  I don't know if that had something to do with my later issue. After doing so I made the mistake of updating all my copies of the same way! But since opening hangs when he is asked to open any copy of my main opening book.

    I applied all three corrective procedures available, namely 'Repair permissions', "Repair database" and "Rebuild database" to my Aperture library, but nothing helped. Opening continues to crash when asked of my working copy or any copy made. My opening application is the latest version of 3.5

    Any 'real expert' out there any constructive suggestion about how to recover from this disastrous situation, I would be eternally grateful.

    I'm under El Capitan GM (Build 15F34) on my Mac Pro (mid-2012) with 32 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 ECC, with four drives internal, all with a lot of unused space.

    Have you tried to see the previews generation?  You can have an image corrupted in your Aperture library, which cannot be treated.

    To test this, start opening everything and now the SHIFT key. This will stop the treatment to generate previews in the background.

    Opening again, crash, when you start this way? If this is not the case, try to find the image that cannot be treated.

    Open the activity Viewer and try to create previews manually as described in this tip to the user: How to sort an Aperture for corrupted image files or video library

  • cannot eject external hard drive with Aperture library on it

    Hello

    in recent weeks, I can't eject a hard disc with the Aperture library on it. A dialog appears saying that an Application is still in use, but opening is closed and there is nothing else on the external drive (Seagate 2 to).

    Yesterday, I moved my library on a Lacie Rugged drive. Always the same question.

    What could be the reason for this?

    Eddd you change Aperture preferences recently? Perhaps the preview preferences or XML part?
