My Captions and Keywords embed fine. Do you have an example to show?

Here is the catch, In bridge it will show them but if you do file info in photoshop it does not show up.
If i edit any metadata in bridge and apply it to the image it THEN will show up in Photoshop.

From what I have read I am not the only person that has had this problem. There are a few other professional photographers that have wrote about this issue. It becomes a problem when you send things off to newspapers, magazines because they usually use photoshop to look at the info because thats a main program they use to edit photos.
 
A most needed update!

One of the worst upgrades ever, this update, although one of the quickest 0.1 updates ever, wasn't quick enough. :apple: already pissed off thousands of disappointed users. :mad:
 
Aperture Books Still Wrong Size

When are these people at :apple: gonna learn that PROFESSIONAL digital cameras and 35mm Film have an aspect ratio of 3:2... The Apple Books in Aperture have the wrong ratio at 8.5"x11" and now the new XL at 13"x10"... The correct size for a "professional" should be 15x10 or 8X12...
That means that if you want to have a full bleed landscape image on the book, it will be chopped off or it will have a border on the top and bottom... All those preset layouts are the same problem. I have printed about 10, 100-page books already and it bothers me that I can't layout the way I should with 2:3 image proportions.
Same goes for the whole industry. Try to find a frame at Target or so that is not 8x10... Or even photo quality paper that is not the useless 8.5x11....
:mad:
 
I thought I would throw this out in case it helps anyone. I am using A3 and have had far fewer problems that what has been reported. It might be that I installed and ran Applejack before even installing A3. Applejack is a free utility that fixes a number of problems that develop in MacOS X that lead to other problems with other applications.

Also, for what its worth, after running Applejack and zapping my pram, my computer ran noticeably faster. I suppose you could give it a try. As with any utility, just make sure your data is backed up in case something goes wrong.
 
For those having problems installing the update.

I was having the same problem installing the update. Then I realized that I didnt have aperture in the applications folder and so the mac couldn't find it. I also learned that you cant have the app in a sub folder when trying to do the update it just has a hard time finding it. So make sure that its there then try again it should go through fine.
 
Aperture 3 froze my entire system to the point of having to just shut off my Mac and restart it. Then i FINALLY deleted my Aperture 2 library out of Aperture 3 and re-imported and it worked ok. I see there's an update (3.0.1) on here, so i do software update. Doesn't show up. I find it on Apple's website, download it and try to install and i get an error message saying i need Aperture 3.0 to install the update. I read on here that others are having the same problem, i finally find a fix.. doesn't work. Apple is really starting to annoy me with their half assed work lately.

Unless something has changed, I believe Apple contracts printing through Kodak (used to be ofoto) printing services, therefore have no say (or less than one would hope) in the matter...
 
Aperture

I couldn't get 3.01 to run with my trial version so i just deleted the whole thing. Maybe I'll try from scratch when I get a little more patience.

I was hoping the update made the thing run at tolerable speed. FOr now, Apple won't be seeing my $$$.

If you have the trial version of aperture, you'll need to download the whole trial version again, as it has been updated to 3.0.1.
The update cannot be installed on the trial version. I read this in some article concerning the update but can't find it right now.
 
Has the 3.0.1 update been removed?

I cannot locate the Aperture 3.0.1 update on the Apple site. All links are broken

If you get an error message during installation that says you need Aperture 3.0 installed, a fix was posted by "yaroldb". The fix is to delete the following file:

Library > Preferences > com.apple.AECT.plist

then try the installation again (it worked for me). In my case, I was doing an upgrade from AP2, so I needed to renter my AP2 serial number again.

If you are working from the Aperture 3.0.0 trial version loaded, you'll need to download and install the 3.0.1 trial version and install that.
 
Managed to actually load my library, but for some reason it keeps one of my 8 cores pegged at 100% continuously, and won't shut down without a force quit... The in application "Activity" window doesn't show anything happening.

At least it runs though, and I've got access to my Library. Faces seems more robust than the iPhoto version, which is welcome.
 
This can't be good

Console said:
2/28/10 3:23:44 AM Aperture[36982] An instance 0x1453ce010 of class RKFaceVersionRef was deallocated while key value observers were still registered with it. Observation info was leaked, and may even become mistakenly attached to some other object. Set a breakpoint on NSKVODeallocateBreak to stop here in the debugger. Here's the current observation info:
<NSKeyValueObservationInfo 0x1215afd20> (
<NSKeyValueObservance 0x12217f800: Observer: 0x1060d7d40, Key path: confirmationChoice, Options: <New: NO, Old: NO, Prior: NO> Context: 0x9ccc235, Property: 0x12213d620>
)

I'm getting those by the thousand...
 
I'm glad I'm not using Faces then, as that may be where most issues are now.

Things have improved enormously for me. With Nikon RAWs on 3.0.0, I was getting a crash about every 5-10 minutes. With the 3.0.1 update, that reduced to a crash about every 30 minutes. Finally with the RAW update, not a single crash in about 10 hours processing. Memory usage is stable now too, at around 1.6 GB which is fine.

The amount of strain it is putting onto my MBP is a concern though. The fans sound like a 747 at takeoff most of the time. I had no idea they even went that fast until today.
 
I think one of the best fixes of Aperture 3.0.1 is that now when you edit a picture the edit becomes version 2 instead of the original. That was really messing up my mojo.
 
News discussion wasn't the best place for my Aperture library question so I moved it to Digital Photography (and managed to mess that up as well). :eek:

Hey, thanks for posting this (however long ago it was). I just did a clean install of Aperture 3, and it was driving me nuts trying to install this upgrade.
