Using Aperture Exporter can be as easy as:

  2. Launch Aperture Exporter
  3. Click the Begin Export Button
  4. Select a destination for the library to be exported to
  5. Wait for export to complete
  6. Import the destination from step 4 into Adobe Lightroom or other manager such as Capture One

We even did a fun quick start video.

Current Version: 1.4.0

System Requirements: Mac OS X 10.7 or up to 10.14.x (Mojave). It is not compatible with MacOS 10.15 (Catalina) or above as Aperture is no longer able to run on those versions. A working installation of Aperture 3.x is required.
