Nothing exciting here people. Move along.

Does anyone know what the other "minor issues" are? I downloaded it, but I can't see anything different. Gotta love the detail you get from with these updates...NOT.

You can go to the Apple Support site and it will tell you what each update fixes. For most people, it's download and be done.

It still doesn't preserve all EXIF info in exported pictures. :/

I wonder if it fixes the irritating bug that prevents you from adding custom folders in the wallpaper settings in OS-X. Right now if you add a folder to the wallpaper list it just shows another Aperture Library isntead, really annoying.

i dont even know what this is or what it does.

[dobbin]

Does it work with Front Row yet?

(I doubt it with a minor update like this.)

That is super annoying (I had it too), although the problem goes away if your computer also has an iPhoto library.

On the surface it looks like mobileme related changes.

Judging from what I've heard, it looks like they've also blacklisted certain serials that were floating around!

Another solution is to go to "Preferences / Previews" and uncheck "Share previews with iLife and iWork. That could help anyone reading this that doesn't have iPhoto on their computer, like me.

It wasn't without much irritation that I found this fix.

Lightroom 2.0 just came out today!

<- LR fan

So this update really seemed to more or less add some mobileme interface bits. And yes, the update appears to have "broken" at least one function in Aperture as is being discussed on various photography boards. So, mobileme apparently breaks anything it comes in contact with. Not so good Apple.

Of course the update that I'm waiting for is D700 RAW support. LR is a good program, and I loved using it, but I like the Aperture integration and open editing ability (e.g. I can edit at any time even when doing book layout). I don't know if I'll pay the $99 to upgrade my LR, but... at least I'd have D700 RAW support today.

Is anyone else seeing this bug?

Go into Aperture, and create a Web Journal (a few pages worth). Add a new page, and add about 30 pictures to that page. Then, add a text block at the bottom. Type several paragraphs of text, and then go to one of the other pages. My text disappears when I come back to that last journal page. It doesn't matter how many times I type or paste text back onto that page, it will not "stick" to the page. I even exported the journal to MobileMe, and it still doesn't show the text.

This bug is extremely annoying, as I'm stuck in the middle of a vacation trip and can't describe the rest of the trip to my family.

BTW, this bug was in 2.1 as well, but it didn't manifest itself quite so badly. Usually, the text would disappear, but pasting it in again made it "stick" to the page. There is no "save" function in Aperture, so I have no idea how to make the text stay attached to the page. Very frustrating....

[redAPPLE]

i'd suggest you report it to Apple. they are the people who can help you out. AND help us out too, if it is a legitimate bug.

[MauiBoy]

I've already reported it to Apple; just wondering if others were seeing the same thing.

Enjoy your vacation and deal with the bug later.
