Lake Victoria (Uganda) is missing in the maps - photo book

Hello,

I want to make a photo book at Aperture 3 about a trip I did through Africa. Now I want to use one of the Photo Essay theme with the integrated maps to integrate my route into my book. Now it appeares that the Lake Victoria the third largest lake in the world is missing in this maps. Now I want to know if this mistake only appeares on my Mac or every where else? If there is a possible way to add the lake to the maps? Or how I can contact the apple support for Apperture, I couldn't find a way to contact them at the Apple homepage!

Thank you, Alex

The maps in Aperture's books clearly have a problem with the large lakes - I don't see Lake Victoria either on the maps in the books. And it is not the only lake that is missing: Look for Baku on the maps. It should be on the shore of the largest lake in the world - but none of the maps is showing the Caspean Sea either.


As a work-around you could create the maps in "Places" view - they do show the large lakes, Lake Victoria and Caspian Sea and make a screenshot of the map in Full Screen mode.


Also, please send feedback to Apple - only it may take a while, until this will be fixed: Is there any other way to contact Apple beyond sending Aperture feedback?

Léonie


Baku and Entebbe no longer at the coast of a large lake:
