    Does Aperture now import the original versions as referenced instead of managed?

     

    What happens, if you select the newly imported images in the Browser and then try to consolidate them using "File > Consolidate Originals"? Does Aperture then turn your files into managed originals, or is there a general problem? Can you import your images correctly, if you create a new, empty Aperture library and import into this library?

     

    1. If you can import into a new library correctly, I'd recommend to repair your current Aperture library and to repair the permissions, see: Repairing and Rebuilding your Aperture Library
    2. But if you cannot import into another library either, try, if removing the Aperture user preferences will help, see Aperture 3: Troubleshooting Basics

     

    What is the Aperture version you are using, and what version of MacOS do you have? Is your library on your system drive or on an external drive?
