"Aperture cannot access this library"
I recently swapped my Windows PC for an Apple iMac. I thought Apple the bees knees (initially) now this problem has loomed it head and is pretty scary.
I have 22,000 family photos from year 2000-2010 in my library and now I cannot open it. Several weeks of processing these photos seems to be lost and maybe the photos too.
Can anyone help me get them back. Although familiar with a computer I am by no means an IT expert and I am not really familiar with Apple at all having been with Windows since it was release back in the stone age and only a few weeks with Apple.
I tried the trial Aperture, liked it and bought the real thing. I loaded it up used the code number etc and off it goes working like a dream. I start up my computer today and try to open Aperture 3 and it give me the error message. "Aperture cannot access this library" followed by "To use this library, make sure its file permissions are set correctly."
Do any of you kind Apple Experts know how this can be corrected please, please please?
