running 3.4.3 on 10.8.2
I have read all the library repair info but I haven't found a solution for my vexing situation. I have found it impossible to open my library. If I double click with command and option pressed and choose repair permissions I get the checking library consistency dialogue. When it finishes this I get a dialogue that says “Aperture has detected inconsistencies” (so far this is like other posts). Then I choose repair. Aperture then takes about 45 minutes or more to get to 70 to 72% done… and never gets beyond that. I am unable to open the library. And I am of course in a rather difficult state as a result (presently in Bombay and really needing this library to open!) The library is on an external disk. I tried to transfer the library onto my internal drive but I was unable to copy it. Please help! Thanks.
Un able to copy the external back to the internal is not good sign. Do you have a back up? How long did you let the Lib rebuild? 24 hours plus is sometimes needed. Id try the back up and see if that works. Good luck dbm

Thanks.
When it was at 71% I opened force quit. It said “aperture not responding.” Can it still be repairing if it says that?
Yes! Let it go over night and a day! Be patient young Skywalker :)
