So I’ve just gotten my new Unibody MacBook and Aperture. Immediately I find myself wanting for a Quick Look > Add to Aperture just like there is for iPhoto. Unfortunately it’s nowhere to be found. Fortunately Aperture is scriptable.
Version 1.0 of SaveAttachments2Aperture is now available. It’s currently very simple with little error checking. It works multiple attachments per message and imports all attachments of a selected message into a new Aperture project.
It could be used in a Mail rule though I prefer to select it manually from the Script menu. I have it saved in ~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Mail/.
A thanks goes out to Automating Aperture where I got some of the Aperture scripting.
Comments welcome.
Update
Now at version 1.1. I added some simple logic to only import certain file types. You might need to add to this list. If I’m missing some let me know, especially with Raw images.
v1.2 - add a bunch of the usual camera raw file types

Barack Obama is the POTUS-Elect. Congrats. I’m so glad it was decisive and isn’t going to have lawyers involved. I have to say I called this in November, 2007 and wrote about Obama four years ago. I wish him all the best our country needs it’s best and brightest working together.
Prop. 8 in my home state of California hasn’t yet been decided officially but with 95% of the precincts reporting it is passing by 4%. Personally, I’m glad the citizens got to vote this issue and the legality isn’t going to be decided by a 4 judges who disagreed with a similar ballot measure from 2000 that passed with about 61% of the vote.
Back to your regular unscheduled programming.

OK, I have serious laptop envy. I need a new MacBook. Just have to figure out what to do about no firewire drive.

The current financial meltdown is the news of the day and the politicos in Washington are trying to fix/solve the problem.
Why is it then that the solution is 400+ pages long and contains crap like money for wooden arrow makers and wool studies?
Is Washington so riddled with ADD that they can’t keep their eye on the ball and produce legislation that does only ONE thing?

I just went to the App Store in iTunes and the choices to see All iPhone Applications, All Free Applications and All Paid Applications are now gone.
Please bring it back. I want to be able to see all applications sorted by recent.

This is joke right? Who advises these people.
On the other hand, my congratulations go out to President Obama.
Addendum:
This political stunt only works for McCain if he blows up any existing plan supported by the Dems (done) and his proposed plan gets instituted and actually works.
Side note:
The Dems could, in theory, pass whatever plan they want without Republican support, GWB already said he’d sign it.

Security experts say that Apple isn’t ready for enterprise prime-time.
Quit whining. All you seem to care about is that Apple didn’t give you any advance notice. You spent the entire article about it without even addressing the fixes or whether OS X and/or QuickTime, etc. are now more secure. Grow up. Apple doesn’t need to have a press conference to tell you they’re working on security.

The power was off for most of the day a couple of days ago. Perhaps related or not but now our G5 iMac won’t power on.
Off to the closest Apple Authorized Service Center.

Joe Biden the 6-term Senator from Delware is Obama’s choice for VEEP. I’m wondering how this old guard Washington insider adds to Obama’s message of change.
Personally I think Bill Richardson would have been a better choice. Adds the foreign policy cred without all of Biden’s baggage.

I don’t know what Apple fixed in the 2.0.2 software update for the iPhone but whatever the “bug fixes” were have noticably decreased my battery life.
I’m using a 1G iPhone with v2.0.2 OS
- Bluetooth - OFF
- WiFi - ON
- Push - OFF
- Fetch New Data - 30 min
- Location Services (now OFF to see if I can improve till next update)
Please hurry Apple.
