Is there any way to import the content of Smart Folder into Aperture library?
The only way I found is to select all content of Smart Folder in Finder and drag it into Aperture project.
When creating your Smart Folder through File → New Smart Folder, choose your Macintosh HD before you create it (either from the sidebar or through general navigation).
Then, in your Smart Folder criteria, you can choose to search only Macintosh HD.
My Macintosh HD is called Mac SSD in the example above.
When you click Save, the Smart Folder that is created maintains this setting.
