Controls in the Vaults Panel

There are several controls that you’ll use when you update vaults.

 Disclosure triangle: Click this to see the hard disk that is assigned to a vault.
 Vault Status button: Click this button to update a vault. The color of the Vault Status

button indicates the state of the vault:

 Black: The vault is up to date.
 Yellow: All master files in the Library have been backed up, but a change has

occurred to at least one version (such as an adjustment) that has not been backed
up. The vault should be updated to safeguard your work.

 Red: At least one master file in the Library has not been backed up. The vault

should be updated to protect against the loss of master files.

 Update All Vaults button: Click this button to update all of your connected vaults at

the same time.

 Vaults Panel button: Click this button to show or hide the Vaults panel.
 Vault Action pop-up menu: You can use this pop-up menu to add and remove vaults,

as well as update a vault.

 Disk space available: Aperture keeps track of how much storage space is available on

the hard disk used by a vault. Color-coded bars indicate the space used by the vault,
unused space, and space used for other, non-Aperture files.
