Q: i have no trash icon in inspector panel

A missing trash  icon may happen for several reasons; either you Aperture library has a problem, your preferences file is corrupted, or the System trash has a problem, to name a few.

Is your Aperture version really Aperture 2? Then start with the Trouble Shooting basics as described here:

• Aperture 2: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2945

     but if you are on Aperture 3, here:

Before you do any of the options above, quit Aperture and make sure you have a backup of your Aperture Library.

• Aperture 2:
  • I'd start with a consistency check on the library, and if this check shows problems, rebuilding the library.
  • If this should not solve the problem, remove the Aperture preferences as described in Aperture 2: Troubleshooting Basics

• Aperture 3:
  • Use the Aperture 3 Library First Aid as described in 
    Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805
  • Begin with repairimg the permissions, and if that does not help, with repairing the database.
  • If you still have a problem remove the Aperture Preferences file.

Post back, if there still is a problem
