Can't find Master Photo from Album Version Photo

I've just installed Aperture and imported my iPhoto library. From my reading I've learned that photos can only be in one project at a time. They also have to be in a project. At least that is my understanding.
Some of the imports have the context menu option of "Show in Project" while being viewed in an album but when selected the browser area is empty. At first I thought maybe I was looking at a Master in an Album. But that's not possible is it? Is it not true that a Master MUST BE in a project. (Not an album.)
The iPhotos were brought in as projects and put under a folder called Events. If I select that, I can find my photo that was in an album but using search. I'm guessing that this is the Master? I still don't know how to find the project it's in other than go searching through each Project under the folder Events.
Have I done something wrong with the import? I set it up to bring everything in to Aperture. (Managed)
I'd really like to be able to "go to" the Master and Project of any picture I'm looking at in an album. I just tried to create a new version from the Master while in the Album view. That worked. So it would appear that the link is still there. But to where that link is or to what Project it is pointing to, for many of my photos, I don't know.
Is there a way to link these Version photos in albums back to their respective Projects?

Thanks for the reply CalxOddity.
I have 449 projects, some of those created since the import but most from the iPhoto import. These projects "created" during the Import for the most part have names like Jun 21, 2010 or Roll 128. Most have little meaning to me. I suspect these were the default iPhoto "Event" names?
I never really used iPhoto "Events" but rather imported into "Photos" and then used Folders and Albums to organize from there in iPhoto.
Yes, I can see the images in the newly created from iPhoto Projects. In fact, they are all contained in a folder called Events and when I click on that I can see all of them. (Except for the ones in that album that wouldn't let me context click and select the "Show in Project" option.
I may have corrected the situation.
I had quite a few pictures of a 1994 Honda Prelude SI I used to own. They were all in an Album but "Show in Project" didn't work. However, in that case, I also have an imported Project by the same name as the Album under the Folder named Events.
Events (Folder) / 1994 Honda Prelude SI (Project) <-- Imported from iPhoto.
No photos were showing in that project but that's where they should have been. One of the few times I used Events in iPhoto I suppose.
So, I drug the photos from the Album to that project. They went. I can't remember if I had to drag them back to the Album but now in the Album, I can context click and select "Show in Project" and I'm taken to that project instead of an empty browser window.
Anyway, the short answer to your how do I use the Albums for is organization. Everything was done with Folders and Albums with little interest in "Events" in iPhoto. Maybe that was a mistake? In Aperture, I've continue my Folder and Album ways. To me, I think of a Project as a place to hold the original, the Master image. I'm obviously not a pro and I'm not really trying to be. I just want to learn more about photo editing and photography in general.
Say, if I created a project called "iPhoto Import" and then selected all images under the Events folder and moved them to the new project, would I not be putting all my iPhoto Imports in one place? One big project? Seems like that action would correct any more like issues I haven't found yet. And since I do all my organization with Folders and Albums I could delete the Events Folder after and clean up all those meaningless projects. Thoughts? Feel free to take me to task on my organization method or lack thereof.

  • I imported vacation photos, got the color wheel and did a force quit. Now I can't find any of those photos, and of course I deleted them from the SD card when I imported them. Where can I find those photos?

    I imported vacation photos from my cameras SD card and deleted them when the import was complete. Then I moved them from Events into an Album. When trying to move 2 photos as once to another album I got the color wheel and locked up. I did a force quit but when I go back into iPhoto none of the recently imported photos appear - not in Events, the album, trash, etc. Where can I find those photos?

    backup the iPhoto Library and launch iPhoto while depressing and holding the option and command keys until the first aid window appears - rebid your iPhoto library

  • Apple tv can't find my photos since I switched from iPhoto to Photos

    I recently switched from iPhoto to Photos on my imac which is running Yosemite 10.10.6. and since then my Apple TV version 2 can't find my photos.  Also, the taskbar on Photos is nothing like they show in the description.

    Here to help shed some additional light on this case, jdondr. I also own a Maxx. With your phone, if you access the Gallery, there should be a folder named: Messaging.  If you look at the upper left hand corner, you should see a drop down box. Is it currently set to Albums?

  • How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?

    How can I find a photo from the backup file in my pc?
    I have accidentally erased a photo. It happened after the backup.

    I am not aware you can extract a single photo or a single app's content from the backup, you can either restore the whole backup to your phone or not restore. If you restore your last backup to your phone then any content that is currently on your phone will be replaced with what was on it at the time that the backup was made - so if you do decide to restore, first copy off any purchases to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases, and copy any documents/files that you've udpated on the phone since the backup.

    Sorry but we need details to help
    What version of the OS do you have? What has changed since iPhtoo worked?
    What exactly is the problem - you say "it was not responding" - You downloaded a new version (what version)" -you can't find yoru photos" none of which is helpful
    look in your applications folder - is there an Iphoto application there? If so get info and report the version
    Look in the picures folder - is there an iPhoto library there? If so exactly (including exact error messages) happens if you double click on it?
    what else can you tell us that might help us assist you?

    where can i find my photos from my iphone if i dont have any backups?

    Photo Stream, if they were uploaded to it within the last 30 days. Assuming you no longer have the phone or it's not working, that's it. If you didn't back them up, they're gone.

  • Can't find My Photo Stream album after iOS 8 update

    Can't find My Photo Stream album after iOS 8 update. Is anyone else having this problem.

    That album, My Photo Stream, is no longer used.
    Instead, look in "Recently Added" within Albums, and also within Photos in the various timescale views. Both places should contain photos taken by any of your devices.

    My iPhone was stolen and I can't find the photos I took with it of a certain day from last week, only from the day before and the day after. How can I retrieve them?

    If they are not on your 'My Photo Stream, you only other option is try to restore an iOS device from a backup of your lost iPhone (either via iTunes or iCloud, where ever you were backing up to).  Obviously you will need ot inherit and iOS device to do this.

    Restore from an iCloud backup
    If you have a new iOS device, or if you need to restore your iOS device to resolve an issue, follow these steps.
    Follow the initial steps in the iOS Setup Assistant (select your language, and so on).
    Select Restore from iCloud Backup when the assistant asks you to set up your iPhone (or other iOS device).
    Select the backup you created earlier.
    You can restore a backup only by using the iOS Setup Assistant.
    If you've already set up your device, you can erase all current content to go through the iOS Setup Assistant again. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do this only if you already have a backup, because this step will remove all current content from your device.
    Restore from an iTunes backup
