I have a late 2009 iMac and had to replace HDD. Prior to replacement I had version 3.43 and i made a vault of all existing image files on an external HDD. When I reinstalled Aperture I got version 3.44 and when I try to restore vault it will not open.

Aperture 3, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

    I copied vault bact to internal HDD and tried to restore library

     

    1st message

    “Aperture Vault” was created by an older version of Aperture, and cannot be restored by this version.

     

    To import the contents of this vault, select the import button.

     

    2nd message

    The library cannot be imported because some of the data required for import could not be found.
