    Opened Aperture and photos are missing. What to do?

    All photos or only some of them?

     

    If all photos are missing, Aperture will have opened a different Aperture library because it could not open your main Aperture Library.  Where is your Aperture library stored?  On an external drive or in your Pictures folder?

    If on an external drive, how is the drive formatted?

     

    If only some photos are missing, is there anything common about these photos?
