Crazy TIFF problems at Aperture 3.4.3 and iPad 4

Hello,

i post 2 photos, thats the best to show whats crazy.

Aperture (normal export, Photoshop and so on)

http://files.ref6.com/aperture/aperture.jpg

Screenshot from my iPad 4 (also on my iPhone 4S)

U'll see a type of a grid on the iPad screenshot.

There is also a second crazy problem:

I have some edited photos inside aperture from photoshop, removing some ugly parts of the photo with the repair tool.

Inside aperture i see the dots of the repair tool at the place where i used it - ONLY a second or so before aperture generates the preview (the big one, not the thumb). And... my iPad shows my only the crazy versoin:

I use iTunes photo sync.

Stunning photos, btw!

So, you are syncing the originals (as returned by Photoshop) which are .tiff. I will have to think about that, but I have never synced via iTunes to an iPad, so not sure how original plays into that. Have you tested any of these, having first flattening the image before it leaves Photoshop to be saved in the Aperture Library?

Thanks! =)

Yeah, i tried flattening those images, doesn't help. Thats a really crazy problem.

I could fix it... but thats insane.

2 Solutions:

the fast one

1) drag&drop the "bad" from Aperture to the desktop or where ever... (just drag&drop it, no duplicate action or so! attention: changed images with aperture are exported as JPEG, thats bad!)

2) drag&drop the image from it's new place (desktop or so) inside Aperture

3) delete the old "bad" image

4) sync

...the long one ;-) - if u made any changes with Aperture to the photo

1) edit the original (RAW) inside Photoshop (generates a copy of the RAW as TIFF inside Aperture)

2) open the "bad" image inside Photoshop

3) copy the "bad" image to the new one

4) save

5) copy the metadata from the bad image to the new

6) sync

But thats a really bad solution! Why does this happen?!

Ok, still not fixed 100%.

The 2. problem could be fixed with the workaround above.

The grid has also been gone, but: if i zoom in and out the photo at the ipad, i have the grid again. I have to switch to some other photos and back to remove the grid.

just: ***?!
