Aperture 3.4 has been released, with support for the new Shared Photo Stream that’s part of iOS 6, a menu command to open your library in iPhoto, and general “performance and stability improvements”.

Deselecting Images in the Aperture Import Window

I would say one of the top ten Aperture questions I get from users, many of whom are experienced, is asking how they select and de-select multiple images for import. I think the reason for this confusion is that it doesn’t act quite the way the Finder does in this regard. Not only can you select an image, but the check box needs to be checked for it to be imported.

Often, we shoot more than one assignment on a card and want to separate the images into their respective Projects on import. It’s a way of keeping things tidy before they are actually in the library. Otherwise, you have to go through the extra step of relocating images (in a referenced library).

Uncheck All

The first step is to “Uncheck All”I prefer to “Uncheck All” before I select which images I want to import first. Of course you do it differently if you like. You can also just uncheck the images you do not want to import. [more]

Vault Behaving Better in Aperture 3.3.2

I’ve noted before that since the 3.3 upgrade, I’d been unable to create a new Vault (starting from scratch). I’m happy to report that since the 3.3.2 update, I’ve been able to successfully create a new Vault again, and run updates on it. My library is larger than most and I know many people had no problems creating Vaults, but I wanted to share that it now worked for me — so if you’ve had Vault issues, it’s time to try again.

Yes yes, I know it’s a US holiday, but we can still celebrate around the world, can’t we? ;-)

Labor Day Sale!

There is a nice little 20%-off Labor Day sale happening now, along with a new Super Bundle of all Live Training videos for just $40 — combine that with the sale and it’s only $32 for all 22 videos! That’s like getting seven for free, or $1.45 each, or… well you get the idea. Pretty unbeatable, really!

ApertureExpert (not-so) Live Training Session 022: Live Adjustments is Available

Sorry for being so quiet lately; after the big Aperture 3.3 push things calmed down again, plus it’s just been super busy elsewhere. In fact I didn’t have time to schedule this last Live Training as an actual live broadcast, so I ended up just recording it and publishing it here. Silly thing is, I wanted this up last week — but my drive dismounted and I couldn’t get to it remotely to finish the job! Oh well, hopefully worth the wait…
