Q: Undo not working since 3.3.1 update.

Like the title says, ever since I updated to 3.3.1 undo is not working. The 'File" in the taskbar highlights but the adjustment or delete is not 'undid'.

 

 

It doesnt work by 'command Z' or by physically going into the task bar. Please fix this, I use aperture almost exclusively for my photos and use it quite often.

    You may have permission problems with your Aperture Library or a problem with corrupted user preferences.

    Try the Aperture 3 Trouble Shooting Basics, and start with removing the user preferences "com.apple.Aperture.plist" to the Desktop after quitting Aperture.

     

    In Mac OS X Lion your User Library is hidden by default.

     

    You can access it by using the Finder's "Go" menu from the Finder's main menu bar.

    • Select the "Go" menu entry and hold down the "alt/option" key ⌥, until the library appears in the drop down menu.
    • Select and click "Library".
    • In the window that opens select the "Preferences" folder, and then move the file "com.apple.Aperture.plist" to the Desktop, like Kirby suggested.

     

    Make sure, you quit Aperture  properly, before you move the preference file. Im Mac OS X Lion new process system (automatic termination) the only safe way to ensure that an application really quits is to log off and on again.

     

    If removing the preferences does not help, try the "Library First Aid Tools" and repair the permissions and repair the database as described in the link above.

    Your welcome. Don't worry about the button - the main thing is that Aperture is working again for you

    Yes, you can delete it. Aperture will have created a new file by now.
