I'm new to Aperture and seem to have duplicated 000's of pictures. Since I really haven't done anything worth saving so, I was wondering If I could uninstall it and start over without losing anything.
I still have all me shots in i-Photo.

I plan to take some Aperture training before starting again.

Thanks for your thoughts……….Ken

OSX 10.8.2

There is no need to uninstall.
With Aperture open, Go to File/Switch to Library/ Other New and create a New library with a different name.
Quit Aperture.
Take your old Aperture library (probably in User/Pictures) and drag it to the trash.
Open aperture and re-import your iPhoto library.

Thanks John,
You have saved me a a great deal of time and concern. I didn’t think it would be that simple.

Much appreciated……..Ken
