Can't restore a library from vault of older version!

I have accidentaly formated a hard disk with two libraries.
They where 3.1 , and since I have ugrade to 3.2 , when i doble click on the vaults , I can open the libraries, but cant restore them in the hard disk!
A mesage says I have to upgrade the vault, but how?
thanks very much

the mesage is  
The library could not be imported because it is from an out of date version of Aperture 3. Please upgrade the library to the latest version of Aperture 3 and try again.
but its a vault!!

  • Can I restore my library from the iPod Touch?

    Hi all,
    I was forced to restore my laptop recently and like a lot of users I am trying to restore my library.  I backed it up to an external hard drive regularly but for some reason I am only able to locate older versions of the library.  When I restored one of them I noticed that all of the music appeard but none of the apps did.  I am not really concerned about the music but the apps are of importance to me.  Can someone tell me if I did something wrong when I restored the old library?  Also, is it possible to restore the library from the iPod Touch rather than the external hard drive?
    Thanks,
    Sweets

    Alright this is a simple solution which I do all the time. Presuming you have legitimately bought all your apps you should just be able to download them again.
    You can also try to right click your iPod in the devices lists and then selecting "Transfer purchases from iPod" and it will transfer over your apps which is what I use whenever I get a new laptop or lose information.

  • Restoring Aperture Library from Vault

    Hi all,
    I hope someone can help.  I recently had my 'Drobo' die on me as two discs failed at the same time.  I also have a copy of my Aperture Library backed up in a Vault.  I have carried out a 'Restore from Vault' and my new  external HD shows 1.5TB of data (same as my original library).  When I open Aperture, I can see all my folders and projects, but each project has no photos in it.  I have tried repairing the database and rebuilding the database using the option key on start up, but I repeatedly get to approx 83-89% complete and my system hangs and I get a message that I have run out of applications memory.  I then get the Spinning wheel and eventually have to reboot the iMac.
    1. How can I recover my data?
    2. Is there anything else I can/should do? Am I doing anything wrong?
    3. Is there anyway of recvering the files seperately of the external hard drive with other data recovery software?
    I am running Aperture the most uptodate version of Aperture 3.4.x, on OS X Mavericks, on a 3.4GHz i7 iMac with 12GB ram.
    One point I may need to add, I was backing up to Vault when my 'Drobo' unit failed, although based on the size of the vault, I think it had finished backing up, although can not be certain.
    Any help/assistance or advice would be greatfully received as I have lost my library, its parity due to two failed drives simultaneously and possibly a corrupt vault(?).
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    Will rebuilding the library place the images into their correct projects/folders?
    Will rebuilding return the images to their edited version state?
    This library is the restored library from your vault, correct? 
    What seems to be missing are all of the 'version' images processed in Aperture.
    In what way "missing"? Are all your projects empty or are you seeing broken thumbnails of the missing images in the projects?
    I am afraid, rebuilding will not be able to reconnect the "recovered" originals to the versions. The images are in the "Recovered" project, because Aperture does not know the link to the version.
    If your missing versions are still showing thumbnails, however correpted, you could use the lift&stamp tool to transfer the adjustments from the unusuable versions to the recovered versions.
    But that would be a bit daunting for 14000 recovered originals.
    I'd try something different - quick and dirty emergency measure: Try to open your vault directly on the drive where it is now without restoring it.
    Keep the restored library you are now having save and don't delete it.
    Change the filename extension of your vault to ".aplibrary", this will turn the vault into an Aperture library and try to open it directly in Aperture by double clicking it. This needs to be done in-place, on the Drobo-attached drive where you originally created the vault. Do not move it.
    Aperture will now try to open the vault as the current Aperture library and upgrade it. There is a slim chance, that the links between originals and versions will remain intact, if the vault is not restored to a different volume but repaired in-place on the original volume.
    Frank, what do you think? Should Snurge first try to repair the permissions on the drive?

  • I have never activated time machine and my entire iPhoto library is missing. How can I restore the library from the last back up??

    I am using a MacBook Pro version 10.7.5.
    Ive just noticed my entire iPhoto library is missing except for tonights last sync.
    I have never activated Time Machine. I am worried if i activate it now, i would have no chance of retrieving my iPhoto library.
    Can i restore the iPhoto library from the laptops memory? Or have i clicked the wrong thing while syncing, with no chance of seeing my life again?

    I was distracted at the time and have forgotten but I thought it was something like "are you sure you would like to replace all photos on this divise for the ones in your iPhoto library" I was confident as both the comp and my phone have been together for years now.
    Im questioning wether the iPhoto program had its own problem before tonights sync. Syncing photos is something i would do regularly without problems, but I've had about a six month break.
    Luckily i have made some folders and copied photos out of the iPhoto program. iPhoto was my default photo program and had so many photos from my travelling.
    Also I remembered Facebook syncs photos privately, I trying to go way back in time to see if there are any i can save there.
    I respect your honesty, if you believe there is no way i can get the program back to normal just say so.

  • Can't restore itunes library from external hard drive

    Prior to my hard drive crashing, I dragged my entire itunes folder (with all sub folders) to a firelite external hard drive. I replaced the power book HD, and I want to put my backed up library on the new HD. I dragged the folder from the firelite to the music folder (in place of the itunes folder that was already there). Unfortunately, the itunes library is still empty. Am I missing something?

    Yes, the relative location is the same, the user account has the same short and long lame as before.
    I did try to use the preferences to point to the backed up itunes folder. Once when it was on the eHD and once when I put it in the music folder. Unfortunatley no luck.
    I will try your idea about using "Consolidate Library"
    One other interesting thing I tried a few days ago was to follow the procedure outlined in the apple support section about restoring the library. It has you move the libray xml file to the desk top, trashing one of the other files (I forgot which) and then choosing the xml file placed on the desk top upon starting itunes. I thought it was kind of odd to select the very xml file I was having trouble with so I chose the backed up xml file. It put all of the playlist folders back in duplicate, but the library was still empty (probably becuase the xml file is just a reference file and I hadn't loaded any actual music files) If the consolidate doesn't work, mabye I'll try that again, but also put the folder with the actual files on the computer as well
    I'll let you know how "Consolidate" works, thanks for your suggestions!

  • Can't restore iphoto library from time machine

    I'm running iphoto 8 on 10.6.8.  The iphoto library disappeared and I've tried numerous ways to restore it.  Rebuilding the library didn't work. Neither did library manager's rebuild function.  When I attempt to restore directly from time machine I get a  permissions error.  I tried to work around that by creating a disk image and restoring the time machine back up to that.  It copies some of it, but then gives me an error 36.  
    "The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “iPhoto Library” can’t be read or written.
    (Error code -36)"
    It did transfer enough data before quitting so that I could get my low res photos from the "data" folder, but I can not get to the originals folder.
    Is there any other way to get that folder out of the time machine back up directly.  The library on time machine shows over 20 gigs of data, but I can't seem to get to it.
    I did upgrade to snow leopard a few months ago.
    I appreciate any and all help.  :-) shaeri

    Thanks so much Terence.  I tried some of the fixes from that page, but then discovered the suggestion to compress the Time Machine Back up of the original library and transfer it as a zip back to my computer as detailed here:
    http://pondini.org/TM/E9.html
    That worked like a charm.  I really appreciate it. 

  • Can't restore iPhoto Library from Time Machine.   Faults halfway through.

    POSTED EARLIER ON iPHOTO 9 DISCUSSION-recommended checking here.
    My wife is running a Mac Mini with iPhoto 9. She has let her hard drive space drop to about 4gigs. This morning, she opened iPhoto and nothing came up. I looked at some of the posts here and did the following 1) ran disk utility to repair permissions 2) removed enough files to get her available hard drive space above 10gigs. Mostly by moving to her external hard drive. 3) Based on what I was reading, I copied her iPhoto library and related files to a folder on her external drive. I then deleted the iPhoto library file itself. 4) I went into TimeMachine and ran it back to the last backup yesterday and asked it to Restore that file.
    The process went forward smoothly until it hit about 5.5gigs of the 46.5gig file. At that point it stopped and a dialogue box said "the operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access iPhoto library". I ran it again---essentially it fails after restoring the thumbnails. I checked permissions for iPhoto and it shows 'read and write' as the settings.
    Any suggestions? Is using Time Machine for this purpose not workable? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Disk utility ran through the REPAIR disk function on the Time Machine drive and came back good. I then ran the VERIFY disk function on the Main disk and it also came back good. I was not offered a REPAIR disk option for the Main Disk.
    No errors. Any other suggestions?

  • Restoring iTunes Library from corrupted external hard drive

    I had my iTunes library and all the associated files on an external hard drive.  This was working fine until I plugged this external hard drive into my TV to watch a movie.  When I plugged my external hard drive back into my Macbook it is no longer readable, the file structure was corrupted and it will not mount.
    I got a program to recover the files and this seemed to work.  It was able to recover all the files however not the same file structure or file names etc.  Just the files.  So now I have all my files back but they are all sequentially named and stored in folders based on file type i.e. not the same folder structure or location as before.  One good thing though is that I have found the itunes library files in all the mess.
    Does anyone know how I would go about restoring my itunes library with this?  I have the library files and all the audio/video files but they are not in the same location nor do they have the same names or folder structure.  Basically before they were organized by iTunes in folders by Artist and now they are in folders by file type (eg mp3, avi, mp4 etc).  Is it possible to restore it all?  Could I just import all the songs back into itunes and then somehow restore the library file to get all my ratings and playlists back?
    Or did I lose everything?

    I have also found a couple of itunes library files that were recovered from the corrupted hard drive.  I have about 5 previous library files and I also have two .xml library files.  Would there be a way to somehow salvage my ratings etc from these files?  Can i restore the library from these?  Everytime i start itunes and try to select one of them it just says that the library files appear to be damaged and creates new ones.

  • Restore Library from Vault and projects empty

    I have purchased Aperture 3.1.1 from the Mac App Store and then proceeded to import all of my photos by Restoring the Library from my Aperture Vault.
    The Vault imported and of course Aperture asked me to update the database as the Vault was created in an earlier version of Aperture 3.
    Now, in Aperture I can see all of my folders, projects and albums. However, each project, folder or album indicates that there are 0 objects and also there are no generated thumbnails.
    They are obviously in the Vault and now the Library because both files are over 36Gb in file size.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?
    Thank you.

    Welcome to the list. Make sure you read the [Help & Terms of Use|http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa] section when you get a chance.
    Just to be clear in the first paragraph you mention restoring the vault and in the second you mentioned importing. You did use the Aperture vault command *Restore Vault* ?

  • HT201272 Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store

    Having a bad day my iTunes library got corrupted and my back up disk has failed how can I restore my purchases from the iTunes store? When I try it tells me the pruchases have already been downloaded to this computer.

    Does your purchased rmusic appears under the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) ? If they do and you don't have the cloud symbol against them so as to re-download them, then do you still have the entries for them in your library i.e. where you would normally click on them to play them ? If you do then try deleting them from there (iTunes will be seeing them and assuming that you still have them somewhere) and they should then get the cloud symbol for re-downloading in the Purchased link.
    If you aren't in a country where music can be re-downloaded then you could try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page,
