Final Cut Pro X :: Event Became Empty

Sep 11, 2014

Yesterday one of my editors finished a project for a client. Today the client requested a change. When my editor opened FCPX 10.1.3 to make the change, my editor found the event he was working in yesterday to be completely empty. I stepped in to see what happened. Indeed he was correct, the event (Warm Springs) is completely empty! When clicking on the event , the "import media" button shows thus validating the idea that FCPX sees this event as empty.  

When I went in to look at "show package contents," It shows that there is indeed stuff in that event. What my editor may have done to cause this problem in the first place but why there is stuff in finder level of the event file but nothing is showing up in FCPX?

Final Cut Pro X :: Not Importing Videos (MP4) Into Event

Dec 1, 2014

I am having an issue with final cut x where videos aren't being imported into an event. I have tried using the import option and dragging and dropping the files. The files are mp4 which I've never had an issue with importing before. The program was working just fine a few minutes before this happened.

Final Cut Pro X :: Reveal Event Of A Clip In Browser?

Nov 30, 2014

I have a Library containing 22 Events which are numbered instead of named. Each event contains Green Screen clips whose thumbnails all look the same. I found the set of (Piece to Camera) clips I want, using a keyword search of the Library - but now I want to create a Compound Clip in the relevant Event so that I can do a rough edit (discard unsuitable and duplicated narrative etc). 

Next, I want to copy the remaining good clips from this Compound to a new Project - in a different Library. I don't want to copy the unwanted clips.My problem is, finding the Event these clips originated from. I can use the disclosure triangle on each Event in turn, but surely there's a better way to find the parent Event of a clip in the browser?

Final Cut Pro X :: Two List Views Of Event Media?

Dec 10, 2014

The first thing I do after importing my media is I sync the secondary audio with the video clips. 

The audio clips are usually named Zoom... or Tascam... and the video is typically named MVI... or something else. 

Going back and forth between the correct take of the audio and the correct take of the video requires that I scroll up and down the list. It would be great if you could split the view into two separate lists and that way you could easily see both while syncing.

Final Cut Pro X :: Moved Event And Now Can't Find Project

Jun 30, 2014

At my job I was given a new computer with an updated version of Final Cut Pro (FCP 10.1 - my old computer has FCP 10.0.7 installed). I tried moving my fcp events from my old computer to my new computer via an external drive. 

The events did not show up in the fcp software on my new computer after plugging in my external drive. 

I plugged my external drive back into my old computer. The events showed up but I could not locate any of the projects associated with those events. 

Aren't projects stored inside events? How can I locate these projects so I can move them to my new computer?

Final Cut Pro X :: Application Not Responding After Trying To Open Event

Aug 31, 2014

I just updated to Final Cut 10.1.3

I was working on a project in final cut and my computer crashed. When I restarted my computer and Final Cut, it seemed ok. It opens on the project I was working on before the one I was working on when it crashed. When I go to scroll up in the event, towards where the most recent projects are, eventually I get the spinning rainbow of death and then final cut stops responding. I have forced quit and restarted it but the same thing keeps happening. When I open other earlier projects in the same event, they seem to open and work fine.

I tried 'Update Projects and Events' but when I click 'update all' it says that it can't find anything to update.

Final Cut Pro X :: Media Not Copying Into Event When Drag And Dropped?

Jun 21, 2014

When I add media files into an event by dragging and dropping the file into the project the file does not get moved/copied 'Macintosh's HD Projects' folder. 

Is there a setting somewhere I can change so dragging and dropping behaves the same way as when I use CMD+I to import a file? 

I am using the most up-to-date version of FCPX in Mavericks.

Final Cut Pro X :: Corrupt Event File Persists After Removal

Aug 24, 2014

I have an event file that when selected crashes the app. I don't need it, but cannot select it to delete it. 

I opened the package contents of the Library and found the offending file, and successfully moved it to my trash. However, it still appears in the event list when I restart FCP X (version 10.1.3). I have attempted to close the library and reopen it, close the app and reopen it, but still it persists. 

Is there a way to force the library to rebuild itself, or something else that will remove it from the event list? (FYI it appears with a warning triangle).

Final Cut Pro X :: 10.1.3 - Yellow Triangle With Exclamation Mark On Event

Sep 3, 2014

I have a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark on my event. I was working on it and noticed it when I restarted FCP X. Could be that FCP X was crashing while copying or something. But now I don't get it away. But I looked into it. 

The 4 photo's and 1 piece of music were quickly found in the menu left of the timeline. But there are two strange stings going on: 

1. Scrubbing through the timeline, at certain points the Beach-ball begins to spin and won't stop. I waited 30 minutes (nothing), restart FCP X (nothing), rebooted (nothing), cleaned with Onyx (nothing): I had to force quit FCP X. I cannot see where it goes wrong, but it's at multiple points. 

2. While using "relink files" all went wrong. It found photo's with te same name (but in fact other pictures). I deleted those. I went in the library (within Finder) to the Original Files folder, replaced the aliasses of the files pointing to a _Trash folder within the library. I thought the right pictures were back: no. I've dragged those back from iPhoto into the event, with the music also (from iTunes). There double now, but everything is good... except for the exclamation-mark!

Then I made a new library, dragged the project to the new library: copy used clips except the two options given (proxy en render files?). The new event also got a exclamation mark. I played the whole thing: no crashes, no beach-balls, no red missing clips signs, no yellow exclamation-mark in the Timeline Index.

In the original project I can now scrub little pieces (without spinning beach-balls) and I see the pictures on the timeline (in the preview) but with a yellow exclamation-mark in the index...? It cannot be found in the eventbrowser... how strange is that? 

Since the update to Final Cut Pro X 10.1.3 I cannot go back to a previous library. What do I do. I'm afraid if I continue to edit things will go south later on.

Final Cut Pro X :: Can Import Selections Of Video Clips Into Event From IPhone 5

Dec 4, 2014

I can import only selected portions of video clips from my iPhone5. At present I have to import the full length of the video clip into the event and in so doing, I am unable to 'weed' out unrequired segments. Is editing the video clip in the iPhone itself the only option one has or is there any other way of doing it during the import process itself?

Final Cut Pro X :: Multicam And Compound Clips Missing After Event Transfer?

Jun 21, 2014

After transferring my projects, and then events (separately) to my external hard drive, everything worked after relinking media except for all of my compound clips and multicam clips.  

I do not know where to locate them in Finder, nor how to get them back. When I tried transferring my events and projects back to my internal hard drive, they still were not there. 

Everything was fine before with Final Cut Pro X (Version 10.0.8) but now it is seriously hindering my work.

Final Cut Pro X :: Saving Event / Project If Erroneously Moved To Trash From Library?

Jun 25, 2014

I accidentally moved an event from my library to the trash (from within FCPX using the 'move event to trash' command).  I realized what I did right away and hit 'undo' from the file menu.  When I open the event library I can see everything there, but the project is not showing up in FCPX, even after restarting the program.

Is there a way to save the project?  I also saved all of the project files/folders, including the 'current version' to a separate folder before accidentally trashing (copied them to a backup with the master files I created).  Is there a way to restore those files?  I like to save the project folders/files with my masters in case I ever has to revisit any project for any reason.  Figured I could just drop them back into the directory and then reimport all of the 'missing' media.

Final Cut Pro X :: Event And Timeline Clips Have Turned Gray And No Video Imagery Shows

Dec 3, 2014

Recently my event clips and timeline clips have turned grey and no video imagery shows unless I pass the cursor over the individual clip. I was close to finishing this project and it plays in the viewer but making adjustments etc seems impossible. FCP is updated and I have restart the computer several times. I have used FCP for 3 years and have never had this problem.

Final Cut Studio :: Trash Won't Empty After Using Clipwrap

Jun 1, 2014

I needed to convert some clips from a PC to my mac and I am using Clipwrap.  I got a warning that I should get rid of a program, Flip4 Mac, if I was going to use Clipwrap.  I didn't get rid of it, and I think it caused major problems.  The files looked like they converted but my external hard drive the files were being converted to wouldn't show the files.  It was stuck.  I trashed the folder that had the files in it and it wouldn't empty in the trash. 

Then I went and trashed Flip4Mac like they had suggested.  That emptied in the trash, but the Clipwraped files at still in the trash and Finder gets stuck on emptying them.  Clipwrap suggested getting sandbox to support and that won't open on my computer because I don't have the latest OS system.  I want to get rid of these files in my trash and have my Clipwrap up and running again without getting stuck.

Final Cut Pro X :: 10.1.3 Project Vanishes When New Project Created In Same Event

Aug 30, 2014

I've been working on avery complicated project all day with multiple layered clips with key frame animations, colour effects etc. All was fine until I opened a new project in the same event which I was going to use to create some effects sequences for the main project. When I went back to the original project it was empty. Tried the Undo function in case I had done anything stupid but it was greyed out. Went to the FCPX backups and the last file was almost 2 hours old but did not have any sign of this project. The only thing I have left is all the imported media. 

Using FCPX 10.1.3. This is really annoying as all I have left is an h264 file of the almost complete project and it will be almost impossible to start from scratch.

ITunes :: Sync Contacts Empty And Sync Mail Accounts Empty/dimmed?

Apr 11, 2012

I use iCloud for syning Mail & Notes. Contacts, Calendars and Documents & Data. I am 100% sure that in the past in iTunes/Info tab "Sync contacts" and "Sync Mail Accounts" showed all my different Address Book groups and different email account to be synced. Since recently they seem disappeared and I only see my different Calendars to be synced. Why are both Sync contacts empty and Sync Mail Accounts both emtpy/dimmed. BTW if I check Sync contacts I get a message that they are synced through iCloud etc. etc. Now if I enable on my Mac another email account in Apple Mail it is not added to my iPhone/iPad anymore. How can I change that ?

OS X :: How Unsecure Is Empty Trash Compared To Secure Empty Trash?

Aug 31, 2009

I moved a bunch of files to the trash can after installing Snow Leopard, mainly backup files from OmniFocus.

I clicked Secure Empty Trash and over 500,000 items began deleting. These 500,000+ items deleted at the rate of 2-3 items a second. This would total 138 hours equaling over 5 days to Secure Empty the trash.

This is just ridiculous in my option so I just did the "Empty Trash" feature, showing me only 350 items, which deleted quickly in under 5 minutes...

So far I know with Secure Empty Trash that the trash is securely layered with 0's & 1's....but wonder what happens with just "Empty Trash?"

How easily accessible is it for someone to retrieve something that i've deleted?

OS X :: How To Look At Event Log

Mar 8, 2009

In windows, there is an administrative tool called "Event Log" where you can see all the events that occurred in your system (applications, security, system). Where is that in OS X? Is it the console? If it's the console, is there an easier way of looking at the info? Event log usually "dumbs" down the info so anybody can understand it.

Like looking at the console, it's hard to tell whether an event is an info, warning, or an error.

OS X :: Secure Empty Trash Regain GB's But Not Empty Trash...?

Jan 13, 2010

I've noticed that when I "Secure Empty Trash" though it takes longer, I usually regain a lot of gigabytes back. Currently, as of this post i'm "secure emptying trash" and i've regained about 25GB's which sounds about right considering there was about that much worth of video recordings from my video camera I no longer needed.

In the past when I've just "deleted trash" i've seen different results. If I have say 10GB's in the trash and I just "empty trash" then i'll maybe gain back like a GB or 2. ...if anything.

So, my concern is...say currently with the 25GB amount of trash I have, If I decided to just "empty trash", I obviously would not have gained back all the 25GB's..., perhaps just a few, guessing something like 5GB.

Well, does that mean that those GB's that are emptied in the trash (not securely) are just lost forever?

..Or will I regain those GB's the next time around (say weeks later) I securely empty the trash with whatever happens to be in there (all new stuff in the trash)?

Am I making sense?

Kinda confusing to me cause I don't understand it. But I feel it's vital for me to get this and have the most amount of gigs available on my Mac now that i'm using about 30GB's per week filming stuff and editing it on iMovie.
