When launching Aperture, simply hold down the Command and Option keys until you are presented with this dialog: Notice there are three options; Repair Permissions, Repair Database, and Rebuild Database. Reappearing Keywords It appears that doing a repair or rebuild may cause deleted keywors to reappear in your Keyword list.

There will be lots of messages, just search around the time of the crash and look for something related to Aperture that includes words like Crash, Fail, Exception, and so forth.
Reinstalled Aperture. Before all this I would have run Disk Utility to repair disk and repair permissions. If that didn't help I would let Disk Warrior rebuild the disk. These 3 steps are periodical routines of mine even if I don't have any issues. Just as preventive maintenance. Going forward, look over your backup routines. I would never just trust one strategy. Especially not one that is built in to the system Aperture I try to recover.
Look at clone backup routines with rotated drives, Time Machine for incremental stuff, online backups for automated off site backups. Should anyone see this and have a different solution, please let me know! It will take a while to export my libraries! Didn't read this in things you attempted to repair the issue, but did you try deleting your preferences? To the point, where I could not even re-boot on each and every try. And I too, thought I had a corrupt file or library.
I should have it back within a couple of days, and will reload from my time machine backup. Should all go well when I put it to the test, then we can conclude that it was not a corruption problem as I thought, but a hardware issue. But numerous tech's at Apple, strongly feel this is mother board issue I'll most certainly let you know how all this turns out for me. And just for the record, my unit is a 27" iMac, quad core i7 built in Dec and operating with I found a website which pointed me to look at a corrupted jpg file.
I had original backups of all my latest shoots. So, I deleted several of my latest projects then re-imported them. How do you plan to use the NAS?
I would suggest to use it as a backup storage location. Most likely to slow to work on your Libraries if you keep them on the NAS. That's great, but what is a NAS? And can you provide a link to this website that you make reference too.
NAS is usually slower and they don't mount as a native file system. Both of which can be a issue for an App like Aperture with a lot of disk IO and large files. I wouldn't go there Glad to hear it. Please share the website link. Were you able to figure out which file was corrupt? If so, how'd you figure it out? As for workflow, I download each new job into a fresh new library which I store in the job folder with the referenced image files.
Doing my editing and retouching work in the small single-job library keeps things perky. In particular, face recognition works MUCH faster on the small library than on the main one.
The library should always be on a local drive. But you can get away with storing the referenced master files on a NAS if you use a gigabit or faster network. It is of course faster if they are on a local drive. But with a gigabit network it feels about the same as storing the master files on a USB 2.
I did not keep the link I found that diagnosed the issue. If I happen to find it later, I will post it. It pointed me in one direction and when the problem was solved, I did not save it. I believe it happened because I was editing at the same time Aperture was still processing the import. I plan to use my NAS server in several ways. I purchased the 3TB Buffalo link station. Store the main older libraries on the NAS. Create vaults on my current usb drives.
Maintain my main drive with the current and one previous year. This baby is going to get a lot of work!
Is it worth the hefty price tag?
