    After reading and digesting the thread here, I came to the conclusion to put the MacMini (maxed) that I'm using to run all my image and video stuff into OS freeze. That's it for new OS, then. I'll also close it to all external internet usage via Intego and switch off all automated software updates. I will also disallow all apps to connect to the web except for the connection to SmugMug, Flickr and DropBox.

    I've tried to migrate Aperture to Capture One 9 Pro to no avail (that software is not meant to welcome long time Aperture Users. It simply is a defunct nightmare). Fotos is not even a joke as I'd be laughing at it, then. Lightroom is not an option, either, as not a single line of Adobe code will spoil my machine. Sad but the only way to continue working with Aperture is to lock my MacMini down at El Capitan. Luckily enough, I have another machine to do my work with (MBP). Without Aperture, though…

    Apple will not give a flying dog turd. Sorry to tell you. Save your time!

    I rather buy me one or two MacMinis that run El Capitan and lock them away as a backup if my current machine fails than wasting months to migrate 800GB of Aperture Library to wherever. Aperture runs good enough on El Capitan. I put a system freeze on on the machine.

    Basically, no it doesn't run.

    but I still use it with struggle. (I'd move Lightroom, but I can't get the information that my IPTC data are moved into LR by LR's migration feature. I just put things in caption and keyword)

     

    Invoking is OK.

    Viewing is OK.

    Changing to info. pane rises error dialog. and after some tries, you can change. but "Large Caption" menu vanished (maybe more, but I don't remember old menus anymore).

    Changing to Adjustments  pane also rises error dialog same as info. pane. I can't find what problems happen on adjustment screen, yet. I can do what I want in this area anyway.

    Importing rises error dialog same as other cases. some import setting areas vanished. for example, meta data preset, etc. and time by time, areas were decreased, now I see no areas.   In the import display, right side area is completely empty now. Anyway importing seems to work properly. I don't find any lack of images.

     

    (I don't know well yet, so cautiously listen this paren. things here after. maybe true, maybe false:

    After importing, Aperture asks "delete or keep?" I selected "delete", then "every images in SD" is vanished. Previously, only imported images are deleted. I keep some important images in a few months in SD, too as a supplementally backup. so there must be remaining images on the SD after I did "delete". yes I set duplicate important prevent option always. This might be affected by "vanishing import setting areas")

     

    all case, error dialog is same as below:

    Good to hear. I'm cautiously optimistic that Sierra will be ready in 6 months or so and Aperture will run at least as well as it does under El Cap.

    I have been following this thread.  I am a long time Aperture user with nearly 450,000 images managed in Aperture.  About a year ago I began to evaluate options (Photos, Capture One Pro 9, and Lightroom cc).  In the final analysis I decided to move forward with Lightroom.  All my new images from Sept 2015 were managed in Lightroom and at the present time, both Aperture and Lightroom point to the same set of raw files. 

     

    For those of you with questions about LR, download the 30 day free trial and answer all of your questions directly.  In my personal experience, while it is never easy in changing software and there is a learning curve, I have found LR cc to be significantly superior to Aperture in terms of image processing as well as database management.

     

    All of my critical edits in Aperture were typically in tiff or psd so those come over into Lightroom as they were and for old pure Aperture edits, as long as Aperture runs, if I need them, I will go through Aperture, but when Aperture no longer runs, if I need to edit old files, LR is some much easier, that I will simply reedit in LR.  I have also saved high resolution JPEG files of the final Aperture edits, just in case.

     

    Two things: I would never reject Adobe code categorically and I would never buy deadend hardware/software configurations to preserve a Aperture functionally.  Neither seem like a winning go forward strategy.

    The « info » tab refuses to open and crashes Aperture.

    Remember to file an official bug report with Apple.

    If enough people don't complain, it may never get fixed.

    @ e2photo

     

    Hi - good to hear about your experience going to LR.  Have you found a workflow to put images you want inside the Apple system back into Photos?  I want to be able to grab photos from my library for iMessages / Apps etc.

     

    Grateful for any advice.  Not much useful online sadly.

    If you want to move pictures from LR--> Photos so you can have them reside in the Apple Ecosystem, you can email the relevant pictures to yourself and then drag/drop them into photos or message them directly from email.  I have not tested, but I suspect you could also use LR publish services to a folder that you could also import into Photos. 

     

    Sadly so far it is not possible to drag/drop from LR to Apple services.  This really effects me when I am working in Final Cut Pro.  My work around is to use published services to a project folder and then drag them into Final Cut Pro from at the finder level.  This approach works, but not seamless.

    ok, I can live with the El Capitan glitches! I had a major problem editing with the zoom viewer engaged, if I switch from picture to picture (say I am looking for the best focus or facial expression) I make the application freeze.  So like the old time doctor used to say.."if it hurts when you do that, stop doing it!"  Now I disengage the zoom viewer and then reengage or wait while the picture loads before switching.

     

    I had been told in the local store by one of the PHOTOS experts that they were sure that Sierra was no longer supporting Aperture.... glad it is still 'supported'
