When I click on Places, no Map occurs. This question was posed on the Apple Aperture discussion board twice last October, but there was nor response. Everything is up to date. All suggestions appreciated.

Are you connected to the internet?

Yes sir, sure am.
Good. Maps won’t load if you aren’t : )
I would make sure that you’re running Aperture 3.1.1. If you are already running 3.1.1 or are still experiencing the problem after you update to 3.1.1 I would try Repair Permissions, Repair Database and Rebuild Database in that order checking to see if the problem is fixed after each one.
Here is a short article explaining how this works…

Alex,
I think we tried this, but I could be mistaken… please create a new Library (menu File > Switch to Library > Other/New… and see if Places load on that one.

An update for those interested…
I spent some time with Alex today and we got it sorted out. We tried a bunch of stuff, including creating a new library, trashing all preferences, and checking network settings. Finally we created a new user and the problem was gone, indicating it was user specific.
A search in the ~/Library revealed one other file we hadn’t tried. At this point I went at it pretty aggressively and tried a lot of stuff at once, but I’m 90% confident that ultimately the problem was solved by the removal of this file:
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Aperture/Cache.db
