Versions with unavailable original images cannot be opened,saved or printed?

It all began when my computer crashed and I had to reset it. I can see all the pictures I had saved on Aperture which I had saved on my WD passport but they can not be opened, saved or printed. My question is how can I open my picture with out the original image even though I can see it?

Thank you

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

First, make sure you are not in Quick Preview mode.

Second, every time Aperture crashes, you should (imho) run "Repair Database". I have _never_ heard of problems caused by running "Repair Database".

As with all digital data, you should never change anything without having at least one full, verified back-up.

Check the first, do the second anyway, and let us know where that leaves you.
