Sync videos between Aperture & iPhone

Hello,


I have an album in Aperture that contains photos and videos. When I sync the album with my iPhone the videos do not show up. I have read some posts from earlier in the year where people have to export the videos outside of Aperture in order to sync them over. Is this still the latest "resolution"?

Having similar problems (plus some photos) in Aperture, but have never had issues syncing videos through iPhoto. Whether the video originated from an iPhone, camera, etc., if it was in the album I chose to sync through iTunes, it was on my iPhone. Exceptions would of course by formatting. I'm curious about your statement regarding iPhoto.

Not according to Apple Support document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236


Why have "Include videos" as an option in iTunes, if it's not a feature?


I too am struggling. Aperture doesn't seem to want to take videos across to my iPad, as part of albums they're in.


What's most frustrating is that I got it to work on one occasion! I had four or five short video clips embedded in an Aperture album, and they made it across to the iPad. It was excellent!


But now it flat refuses and I can't work out why.


If anyone has any clever ideas, I'm all ears.

Problem Solved!!! Aperture says the video files are made by the Iphone and compartible, but they are not. After exporting, reencoding using HandBrake and importing the videos to Aperture solved the problem. After that the videos could be synced to the Iphone. Apple support wasnt any help.


Hope i could help you all

Very similar problem. Uploaded videos and photos from my Nikon D7000 to an iPad (where the videos played fine), then imported all into Aperture 3.0, and deleted all from the iPad. Now I can't get the videos back onto the iPad from an album containing videos and photos designated to sync to the iPad (running IOS 5) and the "import videos" box is checked. The photos import fine. I did not do anything to the videos other than not include them all in the new album. Even an album with only one video in it won't sync over, so it is definitely not a memory issue. And I don't see how it can be an incompatible video format, since they played fine after direct import from the camera card. Aarggh!! Very user unfriendly and unintuitive!!
