Look, I set a searching in Aperture with an option Show managed files - I can’t see nothing, all the files are referenced. I checked it up manually again - they are. Nevertheless, I see a lot of files in the library > Masters. All of them are not presented in Aperture. How can I delete them? I’m afraid to delate them manually
Try to rebuild the Aperture library. See this Manual page: Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
When you rebuild or repair your Aperture library, it will collect all stray files from the library in a special project "Recovered items". You can inspect these images and then delete them form the library, if you do not need these originals.
Thank you for the reply. I tried - doesn't help. I don't know if it makes a sense, it's not Aperture it's iPhoto library, I use both apps to work with it

There are some iPhoto images, that Aperture cannot reveal. Have you opened the library in iPhoto to check for hidden files?
Aperture cannot see files, that have been hidden in iPhoto. Open the library in iPhoto and enable "View > Hidden" and search with a smart album "Photo is hidden". If this album is not empty, select all photos and unhide them with ⌘L or delete them, if you do not want them any longer.
Vice versa iPhoto cannot show photos that have been rejected in Aperture.
See this link: Using the Unified Photo Library - Apple Support
Scroll down to "Browsing Photos".

Thank you so much, very interesting, I wasn't aware, will be know from now
I tried to view hidden files in iPhoto the way you suggested - I found just one which is managed
Finally I’ve found a solution. I can’t say it’s clever, but it works. I exported all the images as new library, voilà.
HHave you used external editors or plug-ins? Sometimes they are saving copies to the Masters folder that iPhoto or Aperture cannot access, for example, if they are using the wrong file name extension.
or permission problems could prevent Aperture from emptying the Trash completely.
you ou have checked all filters in Aperture,, if they are set to "showing all"? so. O hidden photos will be excluded, when you are starching for referenced files?

Thank you. For sure, I use an external editor and plug-ins. But in this case I didn't apply them to the images. Anyway, I appreciate your note, it's useful info.
Everything else of your suggestions I checked twice, at least.
I appreciate so much for your time and your attention.
I have hidden files in Aperture library. Is there any way to get rid of them?
