Q: Aperture not creating previews for all photos
Hi all,
I have a couple related issues here. First of, what i am trying to do is use Aperture previews as a way to sync lower res photos to my iPad. The iPad is pretty full and soon i won't be able to fit all my photos on there anymore, and i like having them all on there. While looking up a way to to this i found a site that says that if i use Aperture, then iTunes syncs the preview to the iPad. Perfect i thought.
So i imported all my photos into Aperture, but it still synced the same size photos to the iPad as iPhoto did, despite having set the preview size right (Hlaf size and 10). So thats one issue, why is it not syncing that size?
Other, potentially bigger issue is that it is n to generating previews for all my photos. Going through them it appears its only doing so for photos taken with my iPhone. I also have a Canon, two or three in the life of my photo library, and there are no previews for any photos taken with those cameras.
A small sample, a folder with 220 odd photos only has about 90ish photos in the preview folder. To test this i made a new library and just added one at at time to count the previews.
Any help with all this would be very much appreciated, i like having all my family pictures there on the iPad, otherwise i never really look at them.....but i also like having other stuff on there, which is becoming difficult as its pretty squishy in there
