Q: Impossible to delete projects..

I have an issue with Aperture. I did upgrade to the latest release, but my issue is still not resolved..

 

I have a couple of projects in which I took off the pictures to consolidate within others. Now, I would like to delete those projects that do not carry on any pictures. So I go on an delete them. But when I re-open Aperture, they are all coming back.... I did even try to rename them, to use them as other projects, but this is not working either... they keep on coming back...

 

Anyone esle faced such an issue ? Any idea how to stop this ?

 

Thanks in advance !

    Have you run "Repair" on your Library?  Details are on the Apple Aperture trouble-shooting page.

     

    Repair your Library.  Then delete the Projects.  Then close and re-open Aperture.

     

    Let us know what happens.

    I tried it (the 3 repair options) but it didn't work....

     

    When I start Aperture, the projects are not there. But then it looks like if the are synchronized from somewhere... And I don't see where it would come from..

    Olivier,

    What are the names of these projects? 

     

    Is there "Photo Stream" in the name? Or are you syncing with FaceBook, Flickr? Could it be FB or Flickr albums?

    Or does the name contain "Recovered"?

    No, no Photo Stream mention in the name, and they aren't sync'ed with FB or Flickr... This are sole project I did this summer with several loads of pictures from vacation, ultimately consolidated into 1 single project..

     

    And it doesn't contain recovered neither....
