So I've been feeling my way around Aperture - slowly over the past week or so - coming from Lightroom and a PC - and I encountered something that threw me for a loop yesterday evening.

I was adding some pictures directly from Aperture to an existing Facebook album (fortunately a very small one currently) - went to look at my handiwork on Facebook and was surprised to see one of my captions wiped out and replaced with IMG_XXX_version2...!!! Now, I've let Aperture have access to my FB albums - thinking it was a pretty neat feature that it syncs with FB - and now I have those pictures accessible in Aperture - same with Flickr - but about had a near panic when I saw this. (slightly overstated).

None of my other albums were affected - but this sets a troubling precedent - not one that I've had a chance to explore much yet - but wondered if others had encountered. It's definitely not a good thing to have an album - and a bunch of "very creative captions" :p that you spent time coming up with - only to have them wiped out every time Aperture does an upload and resyncs with a particular album.

Thoughts? Solutions?

Has noone encountered this? I just disabled the FB capability as I've recreated captions 7 or 8 times now.
