Sync photos from Aperture to iPhoto
Ok - so I've now updated the script with the following enhancements :
- Added support to sync only the select of a stack - Added support to NOT sync the rejects from a project/album - Added support to remove photos from an existing album in iPhoto before sync (if there was an album that existed in iPhoto with the same name as the Aperture album that you were trying to sync) This script _should_ only sync up the masters, and not the versions. One of Aperture's operating methods is that when you actually create a version, it does not make a duplicate copy of your master (unless, maybe, if the master was a jpeg and not raw - I've yet to investigate this) - rather, it simply stores the metadata needed to create the version. That's why this script wont sync up the versions (unless ofcourse they were actual image files). Hope that explains this behavior... One more really interesting tidbit that I observed as I was working on this script was that apparently, iPhoto seems to ignore nesting of albums when it comes to selecting them using applescript. In my case, what I did was to sync up a nested album in Aperture of this nature : "2006 Projects" > "Project A". Here, "2006 projects" is a folder, and "Project A" is a project inside the folder. When I sync this over using my script, it creates a album titled "Project A" in iPhoto. Now, if I manually create a folder in iPhoto called "XYZ" and put this album in that folder, the album still gets recognized the next time I sync over this Aperture project to iPhoto...! In short : After a sync, if you were to recreate your folder structure in iPhoto by manually creating folders and moving albums into those folders, the next time you try to sync, the correct album will get synced. The updated version of the script is @ : http://web.mac.com/devarshi/iWeb/Miscellanea/Technobabble/8AF8E35A-57F1-43F7-952A-98998CE3EA77_files/Aperture%20iPhoto%20Sync%20v0.2.scpt
Sync photos from Aperture to iPhoto
Hmm. So... hangonasec... It'll now sync only the Select of a stack, but presumably not if the stack consists of only one master and a bunch of versions? I guess there's no way to actually have a version get exported to iPhoto via script, eh?

Actually, if the select is a version, it should pick up the master that the version was created from :-). I know its a bit painful :-).. work in progress to improve this... |
