FCP 'Not Found/General Error' probs...

I know I'm being really impatient with this (posted it on other discussions) but I have a deadline to meet next Monday, was really hoping someone could give me some advice as to what to do with the following problem, especially if it's something that takes time, means I can leave it overnight...
Okay, so...in the middle of editing this project, when I press space to play at a certain point it reads 'Not Found', then I press space again and it reads 'General Error'.
I've tried the advice on this page...http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/8/1066686
Still no luck?
Disk Warrior should arrive tomorrow! Don't know what to do now?
Have attached Activity Monitor screen grabs...

can anyone see the problem here?

Clone your system and boot off the new drive, that would be where I would start from.
SuperDuper does that very well, and helps put your system in order, doesn't copy temp files, logs, and caches, all of which are junk and best created fresh.
I would never let system drive get above 60% used; or 20% free on the other drives either. Clean those up, get some more drives, maybe larger; consider striped arrays; move backup to external, too.
My guess is even with 20% free space, the free space is fragmented. Something that SuperDuper clone would consolidated.
Unless your boot drive is 10K 300GB Raptor (VelociRaptor), I'd look into WD Black 640GB and above... cheap but fast. Personally I go for lean mean and fast drives, especially for system, where only the OS and applications are stored and nothing much else (maybe a tiny minimal user account, sans media libraries which should all be on separate drive). A pair of 10K SSD or 10K V-Raptors as boot volume would be nice.
Your system could be choking on limited disk space. Plus, I'd keep your drives as current and new as possible (but not bleeding edge). Four WD Black Caviar 1TB drives might go a long way.... they are good fast 100MB/sec units.
I prefer the 10K VelociRaptor as they are rock solid, cold running, fast, and built more to SCSI type spec than SATA. (a new 600GB model of the 10K VR is due out in couple months for same price as 300GB).
And at least two if not three sets of backups, and one set always off line.
That should help build a more solid foundation.
you don't have a G5, could you include more of your hardware and system information (OS X as well, and maybe not be running 10.6.2).

  • I am trying to download ITune and keep getting message Apple application not found. Error 2

    I am trying to Download ITunes to my PC and keep receiving a message " Apple Application Support not found. Error 2.  The installation will not complete.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    The section Install missing components has advice on breaking down the iTunes installer into the individual .msi files which might prove useful if AAS still won't install normally.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1.  Apple Application Support was not found.  Error 2.  Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work.  Is there a fix?

    Trying to install iTunes on Windows 8.1.  Apple Application Support was not found.  Error 2.  Uniinstall iTunes and try again, does not work.  Is there a fix?

    Let's try a standalone Apple Application Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of the issue.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleApplicationSupport.msi to do a standalone AAS install.
    Does it install properly for you?
    If instead you get an error message during the install, let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

    Have published iweb site for five years with no problems and just opened a new site and get -
    404: Page not found 
    This error is generated when there was no web page with the name you specified at the web site.-
    Troubleshooting suggestions:
    Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
    Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
    Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists
    is the problem with
    iweb or with hosting?

  • SQL Error 130, not found in ERROR.SQL file.

    Thanks

    How is this connection being made?
    Is it Oracle Forms, SQL*Plus, Java, .NET, JDBC etc?
    The error message doesn't look like a standard ORA-XXXXX oracle error so I would suggest the message relates to the application trying to make the connection.

  • Stream not found null error

    Hello everybody,
    I am able to embed the strobe player on a web page and play flv videos. However, if I don't let the videoplay through and refresh my web page, then I am getting  "We are unable to connect to the content you've requested" error.
    When the video is played all the way to the end, I can replay it without any issues.  
    When I set the verbose value to true, I am getting Stream not found null error instead,
    It seems to me that the strobe player can stream the video from server when it is not found in local cache. If the video is not cache completely in local machine, strobe player will display "We are unable to connect to the content you've requested" error.
    Is there a setting in Strobe can resolve this issue?
    The flv file is loaded on Windows Media Services 2008.
    Below is my embed code. It is very standard that generate from the strobe setup page
    <object width="470" height="320"> <param name="movie" value="myserver/strobe/flash101/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf"></param><param name="flashvars" value="src=http%3A%2F%2Fmy.domain.com%2Fnews%2Ftest.flv&optimizeInitialIndex=false"></par am><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="myserver/strobe/flash101/StrobeMediaPlayback.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="470" height="320" flashvars="src=http%3A%2F%2Fmy.domain.com%2Fnews%2Ftest.flv&optimizeInitialIndex=false">< /embed></object>
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    On what browser does exhibit this behavior?
    Can you provide a link to the video? You can PM it, if you want to keep it secret.
    You might want to raise an issue at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/ST . It will allow us to prioritize and investigate it easier.
    p.s. Optimize initial index works with MBR streams, you don't need it.

    all website went "Not Found HTTP Error 404. The requested resource is not found." and the "Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can" page is not helping in any ways

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Direct-X not found - Installshield error i-001

    .Direct-X not found - Installshield error i-00? I've been having lots of issues installing software that came with my addon I/O bay (fitted to an Extreme Gamer Fatalty Pro), such as i-00 errors. I've managed to resolve some issues but am stuck with the following whilst trying to install Entertainment Center.
    Installshield runs, installs the software and enters the registry values and then fails with a i-00 error. I've followed the instructions for Creative solution 456 - http://support.creative.com/kb/showarticle.aspx?sid=456?that deals with this error (and have solved a number of similar issues this way). However in this instance the install.log is showing that Direct-X is not found. Direct-X 9.0c is installed on the system, 3d games run fine and DxDiag shows no errors. Direct-X won't reinstall as it detects that it's already installed. Does anyone have a solution to this issue please?
    I'm running Windows XP sp3.
