Magical Reappearing Keywords Mystery

Reader Matthew London was trying to get to the bottom of a problem where keywords would magically reappear that had been deleted from the keywords HUD (and therefore all images) after doing a database repair or rebuild. After talking to Apple support, it turns out that there is keyword data stored in the Aperture preferences (.plist file) and therefore this should be deleted before a repair or rebuild.

Ongoing Preset Installation Issue

Hi folks, I’m back!

I’m digging into the presets installation issue right now. I thought it was addressed in the Aperture 3.3.1 update, but now I’m seeing that it either wasn’t entirely addressed, or isn’t addressed for everyone. I’m currently running a series of tests to try to get more info about it.

In the meantime if you’ve figured out anything good or bad regarding this topic (other than “it still does’t work”), please share your experience in the comments below.

Aperture 3.3.1 Update

A little update to Aperture 3.3 has dropped, as Aperture 3.3.1. You can get it from Software Update or the App Store or from here, as usual.

The only fix it lists is “Fixes an issue that in rare cases could cause Aperture to hang or quit unexpectedly when upgrading libraries”, which was definitely an issue reported here by a few users, so that’s good to see.

Metadata Search Not Working? Rebuild Your Aperture Database.

Some users, myself included, had noticed after the 3.3 upgrade that metadata searches weren’t completely reliable. For example, I had a project of 461 images all starting with the same name, yet a search for that name was only returning about 50 of the photos. Similarly, searches for “Canon” in EXIF > Camera Make were turning up nothing, even though they were all Canon files.
