Q: Aperture 3 external library issue.

I just upgraded to Aperture 3, but now I can't get the program to link to the external drive housing my photo library.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

Aperture 3, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

    Did you move move your library to a new drive? Is your drive formatted MacOS Extended and a local volume, or is it a network volume? See:

    Aperture: Use locally mounted Mac OS X Extended volumes for your Aperture library: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3252

     

    Check the ownership and permissions on the drive, also the "Ignore Ownership on this Volume flag", and try to launch Aperture on this volume by double clicking the Library.
