Locating a Referenced Image on a Hard Disk

At times you may need to quickly find a referenced image’s master file on your hard
disk to copy or move it, attach it to an email, or otherwise work with it outside of
Aperture. You can select an image in the Browser and have Aperture display the
image’s master file location in the Finder.

To locate a referenced image’s master file in the Finder:

1

Select the referenced image you want in the Browser.

2

Choose File > Show in Finder.

A Finder window appears, displaying the selected referenced image’s master file.

Note: If you open a referenced image’s master file from the Finder in another
application, you will not see the changes or adjustments you’ve made to the image in
Aperture. Your changes appear in versions stored in the Aperture Library, and the
referenced image’s master file is always left unchanged. To see the adjusted photo, you
need to export a version of it.
