Operation Manual

You can set Aperture to automatically create backup copies of your images during import.
After importing, you can back up the managed images in your library to one or more
vaults. Then, you can monitor your backup system by viewing your vaults in the Vault
pane. There are several controls that you use when you update vaults to back up your
images.

You can create multiple vaults to provide duplicate backups. Each vault holds a backup
copy of the entire Aperture library. Once the images are backed up, you can depend on
the reliable Aperture backup functions to track all the versions of your photos and the
work you have done with them.
