Hi,
I've switched from a managed to a referenced library.
I stress that after double checking ALL my photos are now stored outside of the library.
When I show the content of the apertue library package I can see the Master folder still contain 25GB+ of photos.
What are thses files?
Can I delete them?
Thx!
Aperture 3, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
Is there any chance you have deleted some photos, but never deleted the Aperture Trash? Or Rejected some photos, but those were not included in any instructions to relocate Masters?

I've had many 'adventures' with this library (crashes, bug, etc.) so it's likely... I have a back up, so I'll try to delete the content of it and see what happens. I'll let you know.
I've deleted the 25GB+ and it seems to work just fine.
Thanks Ernie for the tips!
Over time you'll end up with more content in the Master folder. For example, if you edit an image in an external editor, Aperture automatically creates a new original (master). These automatically created originals are always managed. You will need to relocate them after the fact to make them referenced.
Is the folder 'Master' in Referenced Library useful? Can I delete it?
