How to open APVAULT file?
The main problem with Apple Aperture Vault is that the APVAULT file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open APVAULT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the APVAULT file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Apple Aperture
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Apple Aperture is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Apple Aperture in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support APVAULT files.
Programs to open APVAULT file
Remember to download programs supporting APVAULT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Apple Aperture with APVAULT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the APVAULT file still does not use the Apple Aperture program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the APVAULT file with the Apple Aperture program.
Step 3. Update Apple Aperture to the latest version
If, however, after binding Apple Aperture with Apple Aperture Vault there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Apple, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the APVAULT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The APVAULT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the APVAULT file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the APVAULT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected APVAULT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of APVAULT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair APVAULT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted APVAULT files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the APVAULT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the APVAULT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file APVAULT to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
