I imported some shots today and yesterday, and everything seems to be working fine w/ the 2.3 update.

I even tested my theory and deleted a couple of shots in camera. Didn't seem to affect anything.

I installed the 2.3 update yesterday, and all seems to be well so far!

Thanks for posting, Stuart!

For those interested, the location of the camera raw bundle is:

System/Library/CoreServices/RawCamera.bundle

I was going to post a link to download 2.1, but it looks like 2.3 has been issued. Check software update!

I think I will wait a day or so; make sure my backups are up to date, then I will download the updates.

hopefully this will fix our issues!!!

Hi Everyone

My problem was solved by removing camera raw bundle 2.2 from my system and reinstalling camera raw 2.1. I think apple are bringing out a 2.3 to solve the problem which was part pf the 10.5.5 update.

Thanks everyone for posting.

I haven't been taking a lot of photos lately (dry spell) but the last two times I imported, there wasn't a crash.

It's too early to tell, but I think it could possibly be that I stopped deleting my files while chimping in camera.

I recently read that it isn't good for media card longevity to delete files from the camera.

So anyway, it could just be a coincidence, so time will tell.

Hi
this is a very annoying problem, it is not the card, as I have zeroed all my cards,and reformatted them. I can import from my hard disk after copying across, but try the cards, and Crash.

We’re having the same problems here, tried trashing the .plist files but to no avail… here’s hoping for an apple fix..

Thanks for commenting Rosy!

If you could see me, you would see my expression is horror too! LOL.

I am always paranoid about not formatting my cards....and since I erased and formatted in Disk Utility, I haven't had any more issues in Aperture (yet)

I think I should write a new tutorial on how to format in your computer too. Just to erase everything and start from scratch!

Interesting. I think you could be right based on the horrified look of the camera guy when I told him I hadn’t re-formatted my memory card EVER. Good reminder. I think I will reformat my card today!
