Will I be able to share photos between Aperture and Elements Organizer?

Apr 21, 2012 9:52 PM

I have Aperture and mostly use it instead of iPhoto. However, it seems like I cannot use Aperture photos/videos in Premiere Elements. If there is a way to use Aperture photos as in iMovie where you can drag and drop Aperture photos and videos into the movie, please tell me.

    I don't know what Aperture is, but if you go to the File/Import menu on the Elements Organizer on a Mac you will find the option to import your iPhoto library into the Organizer -- and then you will be able to move the photos into a Premiere Elements project from there. You can not interface directly between Premiere Elements and iPhoto or Aperture however.

     

    You can also just use Premiere Elements' Get Media/From Files and Folders to get any photos or video into your video project.

    Steve,

     

    Aperture is (or at least was) an Image processing program, rather like Adobe's Lightroom. It has a cataloging function, but offers Image processing capabilities also.

     

    As for working with the resulting Images, if Saved to a common format, such as PNG, JPEG, GIF, PSD (do not recall if it can Save_As PSD, the Photoshop format?), etc., those Images should Import just fine.

     

    As for the Aperture Catalogs/Albums, I do not know the answer.
