How to import Aperture Library. The "Import" button is grayed and non functional ?

[ppg198]

Hi !

I use a MacBook Pro retina under Mac OS.X.Sierra (last Apple Version)

And Lightroom latest update 2015.8

As I do need to use now Lightroom instead of Apple'a Aperture. It was convenient for me until now.

I have an Extra or a Plug-in to import Aperture whole Library with the infos related to each of my 22.000 pictures and graphics.

So I was to do so...

Lightroom : File > External modules or Extras > Import from Aperture Library...

I've selected Aperture Library item

I've chosen which folder will content the Masters and so on

I have a look to the Options...

I have to mention I use an external Drive for My Pictures. A good one ! So I do want to use the same for LightroomMasters

And I was ready for a quite long night.

BUT the IMPORT button is gray and non functional !

What else ... Must I Do !

Thank you for any support tor Idea.

Best regards,

Pascal

Hi !

One more info : The Add-on to migrate an Aperture Library to Lightroom is no longer in the list of Adobe Adds-on ?

It is install on my LR 2015.8 because in 2014 I was about to do so...

Does it stil work with LR 2015.8 ?

Best,

Hi again !

The Add-on (released in 2014) seems to do not work no longer with Lightroom CC (2015.1).

I thank you for any advise or info.

Best regards,

The Aperture Import is in my Lr2015.8 and came supposedly preinstalled .   I never tried the import as I never used Aperture after trying it a few times.  I am using OS X 10.11.6.

Thank you for this information.

So I'm going to look for LightRoom Plugs-in Manager ! And redo for start my attempt.

So,

I did redo from start. I looked in : Files > Plug-ins Manager and find the Import Aperture Library Plug-in activated. I unactivated it. Then Quit LR 2015.8.

Then I reopened LR 2015.8, reactivated the Import Aperture plug-in in the Plugs-in Manager.

But I was unable to import my Aperture Library... The "Import" button is still no active or not functional ?

So, if an Adobe Advisor is looking to this moderate forum, please, perhaps you'll have any advise to give to me ?

Best regards.

Hello,

I have no answer. Is there an Adobe Adviser ?
