Setting essential preferences

Let's take a look at our Preferences in Aperture, and I just want to start out by saying…you should set some preferences.…It really makes the whole Aperture experience a lot better to spend just a few moments up front,…to get some of the parameters customized to the way you like to work.…So, we're going to go up here to Aperture, go to Preferences, and we have these tabs…that go across to top. Each tab has its own little bunch of settings.…We're not going to go into all of them here, we're going to go into the important ones,…the ones that you need to know.…

And I invite you to explore the other ones over time, or we may touch on some of them…also in the upcoming movies.…Your Library location, that's pretty important, where does your library live?…You get that file path right here.…You can reveal it in the finder by clicking on this button, and you can change it right here.…Now, there are other ways to change your library to switch among them, but this will always…let you know where your current library that's opened, where it lives.…
