Yes, and in addition we have completely updated the plug-in architecture to a universal 32/64-bit binary which solved many compatibility issues that arose throughout updates of Snow Leopard and Aperture 3.

Please keep in mind that to be able to run the plug-in in 64-bit mode, your system must also be 64-bit capable. Meaning that you must have a 64-bit processor and operating system installed. Identifying the operating system is the easy part, Mac OS 10.6 is the only 64-bit OS released thus far. Please refer to this Apple support document to find out if you have a 32-bit or 64-bit Intel-based Mac.

As of Aperture 3.0.3 this has been resolved, please update your software via Software Update or manually here. In Aperture versions 3, 3.0.1 and 3.0.2 there is a bug that causes plug-ins to specify the last used preset in Aperture's export dialogue instead of the one you choose when in the export plug-in module. A suggested workaround is to export an image normally using the wanted preset in Aperture, then use the plug-in for that setting chosen previously.

GalleryExport for Aperture is a free plug-in, the license needed is generated in the introductory installation process and emailed to the address specified as a backup. We have a general FAQ section with a licensing page outlining the answers to most common questions here. If you find you still need assistance, please email support here.

A Gallery entry's connection settings can be edited by selecting the entry and then double-clicking on it.

During export, an export progress indicator appears towards the bottom of the Aperture panel. Either clicking on the progress indicator or selecting "Show Activity" from the Window menu while exporting will allow you to view export activity, including the number of images uploaded.

A likely cause for this is because PHP enforces a size limitation for data uploads (usually 2 MB) which may be preventing your image from being sent to your Gallery installation. This size limitation can be adjusted by editing the php settings in your php.ini file. For more details, click here.

By default the plug-in assumes that the default path (http://www.yourdomain.com/gallery2/main.php) should be used to communicate with your Gallery installation. If you have changed this path or have apache setup to do redirects (via .htaccess files or httpd.conf settings) then you may have problems using the plug-in. One possible solution is to set a custom path for the Gallery entry. This can be specified when creating or editing the connection settings for your Gallery.

When you load the plug-in all your current albums are loaded and displayed in the browser. If you edit your albums using a web-broswer (or any other means) while actively using the plug-in, these changes will not be reflected and doing so could lead to errors or strange behavior. It is generally advised not to modify your Gallery installation in any way while using the plug-in.

All users accessing this file will need their own licensed copy of FileMaker Pro.

Unfortunately at this time only HTTP servers are compatible with the plug-in. But a future update will allow this functionality. Be sure to sign up for the mailing list or follow us on Twitter to stay current on the latest releases.

Please ensure that you have enabled the "Remote" and "Upload" modules in the Gallery administration section so that the plug-in can properly communicate with your Gallery installation.

A likely cause for this is because PHP enforces a size limitation for data uploads (usually 2 MB) which may be preventing your image from being sent to your Gallery installation. This size limitation can be adjusted by editing the php settings in your php.ini file. For more details, click here.

Apache mod_security may be preventing access to your gallery. A possible solution is to create (or add to) an .htaccess file in the root of your Gallery installation and enter the following line:

SecFilterEngine Off

HOWEVER, please take the time to research the security risks you take by disabling this feature.

When diagnosing plug-in errors, there are several system variables to take into consideration first before digging deeper into the code. Repairing your permissions is a good place to start, and also good practice after installing software. To do this, launch Disk Utility from the Applications under Utilities. Then select Repair and press Repair Disk Permissions. This basically cleans up your system files so that they can access each other properly. If that does not resolve the issue, you could simply restart the machine as another basic starting point. Testing in an alternate or new account could also help in determining the root of the issue. For more on what information you should send in when requesting technical support, please read through the general FAQ section or contact us.
