just do your work and the database is updated
your master is never touched
when you want your image out of Aperture just export the version
Aperture will then apply the corrections to the master then export the version to your HDD
I exported a pic from an untitled project in Aperture to an external hard drive then later deleted the untitled project
So how come when I "export" "version" to my external hard drive and later deleted the project from Aperture that the jpeg on the external hard drive was now only 16kb and couldn't be opened and said that it didn't exist?
Newbie needs to know how to save a simple picture
