Aperture 3 now quits when photos are viewed full screen? It was working fine yesterday!

I've been transferring my library over slowly from iphoto over the last few weeks and sorting out a proper workflow. It's all been working fine when as of this evening whenever I try to open a photo in full screen (via the main menu or pressing 'F') the application crashes?!


Why?


How can I fix it?


Any help gratefully received!


Thanks.

Aperture 3, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Is it always the same image causing the crash? the same image(s) that cause the crash in full screen still work ok in regular mode?


If you have not already done so start with the steps inAperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics skip the Library rebuild but do the repairs and the preference file move and the \preview generation deferral.


Also try a new empty library. Import some of the images your having problems with and see what happens.


If that doesn;t cure it make a new user, log in as that user and run Aperture. See if it still crashes.


BTW you downloaded from the App Store or did oyu install from DVD?


post back the results.

Apr 22, 2012 1:43 PM in response to Skinnydf

Nope!


It's still crashing on ANY image that's opened in full screen, other than full screen it's working fine.


I've tried all the aperture first aid options and uninstalling aperture, however i'm having trouble then reinstalling it from the original disk.


I'm assuming its probably something outside Aperture and will try the Apple Support, however while i'm waiting the several days that will take, any other advice please anyone?


Cheers.

So did it run from the 13th to now? How often does Aperture crash when you go into full screen?


If you've done the repair of the library and library permissions, moved out the preference file and tried running Aperture with preview generation deferred then the next step is to create a new empty library adding a few images to it and running Aperture. If that fails then you need to create a new user and run Aperture on a new library as that user.


These steps aren't meant to fix the problem but to try and see if the problem is in your environment or if it is system wide.


If the problem happens in the new user account then you will need to re-install Aperture. You mention you are having trouble doing this. What troubles are you having?


Being able to re-install Aperture is necessary to continue troubleshooting your problem.

Hi,


Thanks for your help once again.


Aperture crashed every single time I tried to open any image from any project, the delay from the 13th was due to a holiday rather than anything else!


As this library was only very small and backed up I have now managed to reinstall Aperture from the original disc. It is now working in full screen on various images so I'm hoping once again that it's been solved.


I'll tentively mark it up as problem solved once again and hopefully leave you in peace.


Thanks.
