Q: Photos app stuck @ 12%

Apr 9, 2015 8:46 AMby fleetwood77,Mine is stuck at 19% - its taken 5 hours to get to that level - I was trying to import an Aperture Library. I have now had to Force Quit and plan to leave the Aperture Library as it is for now and trying importing only a few photos into a new Photos Library. Frankly this is a mess - I thought it was out of beta. Likewise any ideas would be welcome.

I emptied the Aperture recycle bin and let Aperture rebuild the library as I quit. I then went back and started afresh in Photos. This time it worked fine, importing the 12.5 Gb library in less than an hour.
