68 Chapter 5 Importing Images
Making an Immediate Backup
After you import images into Aperture, you can make an immediate backup to ensure
that your digital master files exist in more than one place. You do this by having
Aperture create a new vault or update an existing vault. For more information, see
“
Updating Vaults ” on page 205.
It’s a good idea to back up your images as often as possible. To protect yourself from
the loss of image assets due to catastrophic failure, you should back up your digital
master files as soon as you’ve finished importing them into Aperture. For detailed
information, see Chapter 21, “
Backing Up Your Images ,” on page 201.
