I am using the version 10.0.9 which might have been an automatic upgrade from my original version.The majority of my connections between library items has been lost. The items show up as missing files both in the library and when I run my project. How can I re-estabish these connections?

I have a lot of storage space on my computer, but i still can't start a new project. I do command N or File --> New Project and it just makes a sad little bloop and doesn't do anything. It doesn't give me message or anything on why i can't start a new project.

I am unable to open a FCPX library (containing at least 10 projects and events).
Final Cut attempts to load the events and projects in the library but after about 5 minutes the program shuts down and I get an Apple message giving me the option to report the problem.
All other libraries appear to work fine. I am guessing that the last project created within the affected library is corrupt.
I have tried removing the render files in that last project and I have copied the library to another drive and neither worked.

Removing either Events or Projects from the Library manually (deleting from package contents on drive)?
Any reason there could be a problem?
I'm trying to figure out if there is any way I can do 'organizing' in the Browser. It would be great to be able to create folders I could drop the 'projects' or the 'files' into. I do have my 'Library' well organized, with Keyword collections and folders.
But.... I'm working on a large project. Every time I add a new video or audio file to a Library (each Library has only one Event - so I can keep my Libraries relatively small) it seems I have to go digging through all the previous files to find the newly imported one.

Im an FCPX editor for a local cable fishing show in So Cal (Angler Chronicles) and Im still mailing beta SP tapes to a studio so the show can be aired.
I recently heard that if we covert to MXT files with 8 channel audio and "drop frame"?, in the future we can safely send the files electronically, via the web.
So, how to get my edited shows into the format mentioned above?

I opened up fcpx and out of nowhere one of the projects I was working on is missing and there is an explanation point next to the event name. But when I go into the actual library folder inside finder I can see the project name in there. I also see inside fcpx at the bottom is a "no data (1)" portion where the media or projects go.

View 3 Replies View RelatedA few days ago, I opened iTunes and a notification appeared saying my Library was "damaged," and then proceeded to reopen with about 500 songs missing. I went through my iPod to find a few of the songs that were on it that were erased from my Library (I haven't synced my iPod since it happened for fear of losing the songs for good), intending to simply re-import them into my Library - but the files were nowhere to be found. I opened Finder and searched for quite a while, but I couldn't find a trace. I've tried opening iTunes while holding down the Option key and choosing a Previous Library, but the most recent of the Previous Library .itl files is the same one - the one missing 500 songs.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know that 10.1 uses libraries and events etc are all inside, but I can't find PORJECTS. I was working on a project that is 90 minutes long but I only wanted to export 60 minutes so I delted the last 30 minutes to COMMAND Z after export which has worked many many times, but the disck ejected by mistake right after the export so i had to restart and FCXP autosaves the projects so now it only opens the 60 minutes and not the 90 minutes I have worked on.
So where is the backup projects so I can either copy the older poject before crash or restore it?
Can i create my own FCP X Projects file? I'm new to FCP X and the training I'm on said i should have a project and events folder in but I've only seen the FCP X Events file. I'm afraid that these folders may not be able to communicate properly?

I have one of the fastest macs available at the moment with full RAM and this new update is crippling my machine. I first dealt with the audio plug ins issue - then deleted those - now I have full functionality BUT - an incredibly slow export time on a 7 minute timeline. This thing should be zippy. I think this update is not so great.

I upgraded to 10.1 and have been working with Libraries for a while now however there are some projects I decided not to move into the new version. Now I need to open then and the project folders are not recognised when trying to import?

Ive noticed this has been happening recently on a lot of my projects since updating:
Been getting very sporadic color grades upon export, as in some clips will receive the grade while others won't. I can't seem to find an issue related to any of my media, as Ive tried multiple tests of optimizing the media, trying to start a new project, reimporting all of the media, deleting the render files, and nothing seems to work. Ive noticed it does happen more often when I paste attributes but I've done a test of going through and applying a preset manually and it still wont export with the grade.
Deleting the render files on one project seemed to work well although I found there was a clip or two that still didnt export with the grade.
Experiment Results: Temporarily removing Events and Projects from library
REASON: I wanted to test removing events and especially ram-hungry projects from FCPX 10.1 to unclog the app a bit. I've been getting lots of spinning wheel time and dropdown windows saying projects unopened and unneeded were being loaded.
METHOD: I copied a library to another drive and experimented by manually removing some events made up entirely of projects. Why not remove them? There seems to be hysteria about manually touching the library but no one relates an actual incident that highlights how things can go wrong.
I copied a library to another drive and experimented by manually removing some events made up entirely of projects. The projects are early versions of segments of feature length doc I most likely will never need to bring back in. After removing an Event that had only Projects, FCPX opened no problem and a lot quicker.
ODDITY: Removed Events names still appeared with the twirly triangle beside them tho the event icon didn't appear and the Events were empty. I tried trashing them but couldn’t. I then closed fcpx and removed media. Reopened no problem. Closed.
Returned Event folders and media to their proper place, reopened no problem. The projects were all there tho their icons were blank at first but then after a couple minutes pics started appearing in them and pretty soon all seemed normal. I opened projects, they worked, no problem.
Moving projects & media manually between events—This may be where things get dicey, but you could do this manually with earlier versions of FCPX. It's not something I would do normally since ti's too easy to do in FCPX. But since I have this copy I might try it just to see what happens. If you don't experiment it's not science it's religion.
The Destinations button is not in my Preferences for FCPX. I cannot Share/Export any projects. What would cause this?

I have a lot of projects, I go to browser filmstrip view -- some projects have thumbnail images as a reference, others just black.
Is there a way to set the thumbnail/poster image for individual projects filmstrips? Or a way to reset the project somehow so that it grabs an image from a project's video and uses that as a reference poster frame?
It's nice having visual cues of a projects content in the browser window and it's driving me crazy that 1/2 of my project's show up as black.

I'm doing a quick promo. I recorded a rough script VO, organised my clips and music.
I then had the professional voiceover artist record a revised script.
However, I can't simply replace my original script as we have added a couple of things. What I would have done under 7 is lock the background music and video clips in place, remove the VO timeline, and then replace each bit separately. However, I can't do that because the video clips have connected themselves to each other.
I also have shuffled a couple of things around so need to keep the video the same, but move the audio to a different part. I can move the video without moving the audio, but I can't move the audio without moving or deleting the video.
I have never been able to understand the setting up of scratch discs when working from multiple external HDDs? I am using final cut pro 7 to edit 2 projects at the moment, each of which are on separate external hard drives.
I was under the impression that you set the scratch disc folder on the imac itself and obviously set up the projects to direct to that folder. Is this true? Do ALL fcp projects go to same folder?
What I am also confused about is whether or not I should be setting separate scratch disc folders for each project in each external HDD? I need to take my HDDs home to use on MacBook Pro, I'm currently editing on iMac.
I set up scratch folder in one of the HDDs and finished the project and then set up new project and new scratch disc in other HDD and it appears to keep the setting for both projects!?

But every time I save a new version of the project (and even rename it, store it on another drive, etc.), the changes I make to the new version are also made to the original.I'm also not getting the popup "duplicate project" window (which should give me a choice of where and how to save the project) I'm supposed to get when I click on "Duplicate Project." How can I simply save a fixed version of my project?

I have an issue where some of my sent items do not get saved to the Sent Items folder.
The email account in question is a work Exchange Server 2003 one and I have it set up as an IMAP account. I have the correct sent items folder configured so that all my devices (mac at home, iPad and iPhone) all sync perfectly with it. The problem appears to occur, sometimes but not always, in the following circumstances: When I am connected to the work network via ethernet.When the email size is quite large.
Bizarrely when I unplug the ethernet and connect to the office network wirelessly there is no issue. There is another mac in the office running on Snow Leopard (I'm Lion) at it has exactly the same issue.
Needless to say this isn't an ideal situation particularly when dealing with work emails.

My iTunes library resides on an external hard drive, and I wanted to reformat it from FAT32 to Mac OS Extended. I moved the entire contents to another HD, reformatted, then moved everything back. I started iTunes and all items had an exclamation point next to them (original file could not be found). I checked iTunes>Preferences>Advanced and was surprised to see that iTunes Media Folder Location was still set to the original location on the MacBook's HD, since I've been using the external for a few months now. In any case, I changed the folder location to the iTunes folder on the external and that mostly fixed the problem with the exclamation points. There were still certain songs that couldn't be found. I chose one, clicked Locate and found it on the external. iTunes then very helpfully found 127 other items based on that location. However, there are still 149 items that can't be found, and they don't seem to be on any of my HDs. Some of them were purchased from iTunes, some were ripped from CD and some were free tracks found on various artist/label sites. Where could they have disappeared to?
