[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1840641, member: 83420"] May I just clarify something, please. If you're talking about the Aperture app, it has nothing to do with Adobe. It was, and is on older Operating Systems, an Apple product. If you are truly talking about an Adobe product, it must be under another name. So, we need to be clear on that point. On the assumption that you meant Apple's Aperture app, it is 32 bit and will not work with macOS Catalina. This was announced well over a year ago when users were advised about all 32 bit apps. In the case of Aperture, users were advised to import it into Photos app as a separate library - which I did. It was relatively easy to do. The trickiest part was preserving all the metadata. Apple support guided me through the process. As you appear to have Aperture running on an iMac, you can upgrade as far as Mojave (if the iMac will take it) without any loss of function. Or you can stick with macOS Sierra. Whatever you do, you can't "Extract" the "old" files and get them to work on macOS Catalina. Sorry, but that's the way it is. Ian [/QUOTE]
