Q: Syncing Aperture to Iphoto

I am running Aperture and my wife is on iPhoto, both of us on the same iMac under different logons.  I am looking for an easy way to copy all of my new photos from my Aperture library to the wife's iphoto library automatically whenever I add a new project in Aperture.  I take most of the pics but she wants to see them in her iPhoto library so when she syncs she has them on her IOS devices.

 

Any suggestions?

    What are your Aperture version, iPhoto version, and MacOS X version? Can you use iCloud and Shared Photo Streams? Then you could send her your new projects in a Shared Photo Stream, see this for the requirements:

     

    iPhoto and Aperture: Using Photo Stream

     

    iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ

     

    What you need to do:

    • Create a Shared Photo Stream
    • Invite your wife to view the Stream
    • Share newly imported photos to the stream.
    • Your wife will see the stream as an album in her iPhoto LIbrary, and can import the photos she wants.

    OSX - 10.8.4

    Aperture 3.4.5

    iPhoto 11 - 9.4.3

    IOS devices are on the latest release of IOS

     

    I am using photo stream now but they show up all in one "stream"... go figure.  So... there isn't any folder / event organization of the photos.  Was trying to find someway to have the same project / event structure I have on my devices.

     

    Would be great if I could stream projects / events but I haven't been able to figure that out.

     

    Thanks for responding, its very much appreciated.

    Then create a new Shared Photo Stream for each new Aperture project and share each project to a different Shared Photo Stream.Your wife will see alerts, when new photos are added to the streams .
