Csound1,
Yes… they have a couple support articles regarding this. Here is one which deals with the restore process:

They state:
“Since meta data (such as edits, ratings, albums, slideshows, and faces) are stored in separate files that are linked to the original image, the entire Library must restored if you wish to retain the meta data.”
Alan Eckert:
Is it possible you did not restore the entire Library? I suspect you did a complete restore, but wanted to confirm since this was a specific point that BackBlaze made.
I am currently backing up a small Aperture library to BackBlaze. I will restore the library, then check to see what is missing or doesn’t work.
Apologies to all for highjacking this thread. I will create another discussion “Aperture Backup Strategies” and report my results there. I certainly learned some important lessons (by accident). I appreciate all comments by those who were alert enough to see some pitfalls in my backup strategy.
