Photo uploaded from Aperture on one Mac and pushed to iPhoto on another Mac: A new event
is created in the iPhoto library and named after the photo’s immediate parent item in the
Aperture library. For example, if the photo originated at the top level of a project named
“Travel,” a new Travel event is created in iPhoto. If the photo originated in an album named
“Christmas 2011” that is inside another album or a project, the new iPhoto event is named after
the Christmas 2011 album.

Photo uploaded from Aperture on one Mac and pushed to Aperture on another Mac: If the
Aperture library the photo is pushed to contains a duplicate of the project or album in which
the photo originated, the photo is placed in that project or album—even if the project and
any subordinate folders and albums have been renamed or restructured. If the project or
its albums don’t exist in the Aperture library the photo is pushed to, the project hierarchy is
replicated and the photo is placed in its original position.
Note: When pushing photos to iPhoto or Aperture, iCloud downloads photos to iPhoto events
and Aperture projects that have universally unique identifiers (UUIDs) matching those of the
photos’ original events or projects. If you manually create iPhoto events or Aperture projects
with the same names as events or projects in other libraries, those events or projects are not
recognized as matches. To create matching events or projects, you must copy them from one
library and merge them with the other.
About uploading RAW files to My Photo Stream
RAW files imported into Aperture can be uploaded to My Photo Stream and viewed on your iOS
devices. The way the RAW file’s image is uploaded depends on how the RAW file was imported
into Aperture and whether any adjustments have been applied.
Note: When you upload a RAW photo via My Photo Stream, an optimized JPEG copy is created
and added to the photo stream. For more information, see
page 434.
