Aperture 3.4.1 and raw 4 update installed now many of my D700 and D800E raw files are turning in to unsupported file format?

Only happens if the file is opened for editing and not to all files. Pictures are visible in the browser. No issuses with Aperture prior to upgrade. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Aperture 3, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)

What trouble shooting measures have you already tried?


Are your unsupported files also showing as offline? In that case it helped for some posters to


Can you import new raw images without problems?

Thank-you, for the starting points.

Library is not referenced and each of the three repair programs have been run 3x a few pictures became visible in split view's broswer until highlighted/clicked for processing, but new ones also turned black. The files will some times go from black (unsupported) to the picture and back and forth until Aperture seizes in "processing". Using split view.

I'm staying in one new project with D800E raw files as not to change past pictures. D800E JPEG's seem not affected.

Loaded 20 consecutive raw shots of color chart during processing 2 became "unsupported". Same files opened with

out problem in NX2.

leonieDF;

Still loosing pictures as they become "unsupported" some up to 2+ years old. I'm assuming my aperture library is corrupt. I'm saving to DVD what I can and would like to move forward with Aperture. I have a vault on another HD but that would likely be corrupt also.

Question:

  1. what happens to the library if I uninstall Aperture? I would use Mackeeper and library is on the OS HD.
  2. Then re-install from Disc ver 2 and upgrade

Thank-you

Have not been able to re-install raw 3.13 always says newer software and closes

I have Aperture disc 1,2,and 3;

Followed commands to re-install from #3 no change in library's unsupported images when upgraded to 3.4.1

Uninstall again with Mac Cleaner all ?DLL files erased only library remains

Install #3 from disc and new permissions to open library"from newer version" and all of previous images restored, but new older ones start to blink out "they do not turn black but look like you are using rabbit ears to tune in your TV, scrambled" until viewed for processing then become unsupported.

Repaired 3.1 library and Aperture would open but not open library. Re-installed 3.4.1 many more images failing to load across entire 5700 Nef's library but not JPEG.

Close but where is culprit?

Raw 4 is always there even in Aperture 3.1 due to Lion OSX8

3.4.1 is the only down loaded upgrade, new down load each time

Raw files/cameras are D200,D700,D800E and possibly Lecia DLUX-3

IMAC 2.4 core 2 duo

4G 667

Radeon HD 2600

OSX 10.8.2

no aperture problems since 1.0 until recent upgrades

Thank-you
