Hi, this could be user error, but first time this combination of circumstances occurred, but basically an Export from Aperture failed halfway through and it was easier for me to kill the files and collection at the Flickr End than work out which files were missing and do a partial re-upload.
However, each time i ran the FlickrExport it would eventually fail with a 'photo not found' error and a list of files that it could not find, which threw me as all the Aperture Masters and Previews where present and working, not referenced Masters or anything like that.
Eventually I tracked that for each photo that I was uploading the 'replace existing photo on Flickr' tickbox was ticked (done automatically), knowing that that photo had already been uploaded it was trying to replace, except of course it couldn't because I'd deleted it from Flickr (hence the user error comment as I've never noticed this feature before so I *could* have solved the original issue differently), which I assume is the reference to 'not found'. Manually unticking the 'replace' box in the Flickrexport dialogue for each image appears to have worked so I'm up and running again.
I assume somewhere that Flickrexport caches a list of files it's uploaded? Either that of Flickr is giving you duff info because the images don't exist at that end any more. Regardless if you weren't already aware of this figured I'd post as a bug, or at least something that probably needs to be handled better.
In FlickrExport for Aperture 3.0b26, if I try to upload a photo that was edited with the Noise Ninja plug-in, the lens metadata does not get uploaded as a tag (doesn't show in the export dialog). The lens info does show up if the image has not gone through Noise Ninja.
Please support another photo shareing service that has Flickr compatible API, like Zooomr http://zooomr.com/ .
I suggest it is easy to change FlickerExport for Zooomr. Zooomr API is very similar to Flickr.

When exporting photos, if I fill the latitude/longitude fields with coordinates cut'n pasted from Google Earth (e.g. 43°33'58.18"N, 7° 6'53.72"E), this produces errors at the end of the export, telling that FlickrExport wasn't able to set geographic location from the coordinates. It actually took me a while to understand that I needed to click the 'google earth' button once more to set the location in decimal format. I'm just thinking I may not be the only one who made the same mistake.
I find that logging into Flickr with FlickrExport for Aperture takes a long time. I was assuming it was because of the large number of Flickr tags being downloaded. I thought I'd exclude ALL the tags by adding a filter with '*'. When I click OK after adding this filter, the Preferences pane does not go away, but a new folder is created in the Aperture project where the image is located.
When I'm tried to use the FlickrExport beta Aperture started to spin the wheel and started to consume all my CPU time. It happened when I was adding a comment to a photo (in the middle of typing a word) I took a sample and force-quit Aperture. Let me know if you want the sample file. Re-launching Aperture and re-exporting worked.
I use flickrExport to add GEO Data to my pictures (Load GPX data). I see there is a checkbox to add this information to the metadata in Aperture. The problem is that the metadata is not written to the image metadata in Aperture after the image has been uploaded to Flickr.
It would also be nice to be able to write the metadata to the files without uploading the files to Flickr.
I'm on Apterture 1.5 and the files are Canon RAW files.

I recently purchased FlickrExport for Aperture 2, I uploaded all my images and now I would like to change the Titles in Aperture and have them update in Flickr, I've chosen the preference for version name and uploaded again, and it is not working, the title is still the old photo number, and also when I updated this info, not only did it not change the Title of the image, it put the image at the end (out of order) in Flickr
While exporting a batch of photos last night, the export process got stuck at "Checking that the photo arrived..." at about 11pm. At 6:30am it's still sitting there and I can't cancel the task or quit Aperture.
I found the following in Console.app:
7/8/08 11:02:51 PM Aperture[5521] FKPhotoUploadRequest processCheckTicketResponse logged the following error: Sorry, the Flickr API service is not currently available.
I just had to force-quit Aperture, which gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Aperture 2.1, OS X 10.5.4, FlickrExport 3.0.0b25 for Aperture.
I've happily used FlickrExport for iPhoto for the last couple of years and have now decied to kick it up a notch with Aperture. I've installed FlickrExport for Aperture and have successfully used it but I do have a question: which Aperture tag is used as the Title in FlickrExport? It seems it's not Version Name, as I always get a blank Title field when using FlickrExport.
FlickrExport for Aperture (3.0.0b25) doesn't seem to be ignoring the tags/keywords that have been set to be ignored when uploading. Even though I have my top-level keywords (and a few second and third level) like 'Hardware', 'Photo specs', and so on in the 'ignore these' field (I forget the exact nomenclature, Aperture's busy uploading right now), they keep appearing on Flickr.
I've just purchased Aperture Flickr Export a few days ago. On exporting my images I select in the Preferences Add Flickr ID and URL to Aperture metadata but this doesn't appear to happen. Has anyone any suggestions to why? Thank you.
Does the full version of FlickrExport have some form of progress bar? I use FlickrExport Lite which does everything I need, but I don't see any progress bar. I would be willing to buy the full version just for that.
On a Mac keyboard, when I type an accented letter, I use a keyboard combination. For instance to enter the é in "métal", I type option-e, then e - this combination gives me the accented letter.
I do this in the Version name field in Aperture 2.1. After I export the image and view it in Flickr, the image title contains two characters that make up the accented e, not one character. Please see http://flickr.com/photos/designwallah... for an example.
The first phrase "Métal Hurlant" comes from FlickrExport, the second phrase "Métal Hurlant" comes from editing the title in Flickr. Strangely, copy-pasting from the Flickr title field gives the correct result - one character.
