Apple has issued an update to Aperture today which fixes a Photo Stream bug that prevented new images from automatically importing into your library once it had reached 1,000 images. Despite being such a minor fix, however, the update weighs in at a whopping 551 MB.

Apple recommends it for all users of Aperture version 3:

This update resolves an issue that could prevent auto-imported Photo Stream images from being displayed in the library after your Photo Stream hits 1,000 images.

The update is recommended for all users of Aperture 3.

If you’ve experienced this bug and you have photos missing from your library, Apple also provides a tip for recovering them:

  1. Update to Aperture 3.2.2.
  2. After the update is complete, open Aperture and hold down the Command and Option keys until the Library First-Aid window appears.
  3. Choose the Repair Database option and click the Repair button.
  4. When Aperture reopens after the repair has completed, the missing images will be visible again.

Aperture 3.2.2 is now available to download from the Mac App Store, or via Software Update soon for those who purchased the software on disc.
