Importing Images From iPhoto

If you have an existing iPhoto Library, you can simply and easily import your images from that Library into Aperture. Aperture gives you the choice of either importing all your images into a single project called iPhoto Library, or using the Import window to customize the import. Aperture maintains your iPhoto organizational structure along with your iPhoto albums, keywords, ratings, and adjustments.

1.	Choose File > Import > iPhoto Library.
2.	Navigate to your iPhoto Library Folder in your Pictures folder and click Choose.
3.	Click Use Import Window from the Import iPhoto Library as Project dialog. Tip Aperture duplicates your iPhoto Library when you import your images, so you can save disk space by deleting your iPhoto Library after you import it, if you no longer wish to use iPhoto for managing and editing your images.
4.	Navigate to your iPhoto Library to set it as the source of the import.
5.	Click Import Images.

You can also import specific iPhoto albums or film rolls.

1.	Choose File > Import > Images.
2.	Navigate to the appropriate location in the iPhoto Library folder and click Choose. Note that Aperture will import any RAW files managed in iPhoto, rather than proxy .jpg files.
