    Peter,

    this should have stopped by now automatically, since MobileMe downloads are no longer possible. You don't have set your system date wrong by any chance, to a date before August 1?

     

    Try to delete your Aperture preferences - this is where Aperture stores the Accounts you defined (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3805 for how to trash the user preferences). Quit Aperture and log off and on again, before you remove the preferences.

     

    In the Aperture caches should be a file "mmsunset.plist" that determines when Aperture is supposed to stop nagging you to migrate your galleries. Maybe this file is corrupted - try if moving this file to the Desktop will help:

    The file is:

         your home folder/Library/Caches/com.apple.Aperture/mmsunset.plist

     

    Regards

    Léonie
