Aperture library not shown in other apps
I've been having this problem for almost a year since I bought Aperture. I used iPhoto before with several libraries (with iPhoto Library Manager) and now use them all with Aperture.
For some reason, I can't see my Aperture library in any other application, especially FCPX, in its Media Browser, but the same is true for any other app that should be able to. I AM able to view the same iPhoto library (as both apps now use the same library), but it's not 100% the same (or maybe it requeires some time to update - not sure), but I would like to make changes in Aperture and then be able to see those in other apps such as FCPX and I can't. It's always empty.
In FCPX I get a message saying:
To view your Aperture Library with the iLife Media Browser, enable the Share Previews with iLife and iWork option in the Preferences window of Aperture.
When searching for a solution on the net, I did see such an option in Aperture screenshots as described above, but such option is no longer available in the latest version of Aperture (3.5) so I can no longer make this change.
So what am I missing? What should I do to enable viewing my Aperture library in FCPX or other apps?
If it makes any difference, I have 1 library in my Pictures folder which is still called "iPhoto Library" and which I use in Aperture, 1 library having the .aplibrary suffix and shows its Kind in Get Info as an Aperture Library. On an external drive I have several more libraries some of which also have no suffix and Kind being an iPhoto Library and some have the .photolibrary suffix and Kind being just Photo Library. I recall that a while back all of these libraries on the external drive had the .aplibrary suffix and were Aperture libraries - maybe this changed when I rebuilt the libraries when trying to resolve this issue with no luck.
In any case, none of the libraries above show up anywhere.
Using:
Aperture 3.5.1
FCPX 10.1.1
Mavericks 10.9.3
Thanks!
