3000 Frame Project Won't Open.

My 3000 frame project won't open now. The beach ball just spins. But New and Older projects will open fine.
I trashed my pref and restarted but no luck.

Got it. I just went to a "auto save vault" and choose the latest save and it opened.
Here is my Project Pane. How can I speed up the playback on this?

IMovie '09 Project Won't Open, Causes iMovie to Crash

A few days ago, an iMovie project that was fine if a little slow because it was large suddenly started to freeze when I added or tried to edit some audio, forcing me to force quit iMovie. Now today every time I open iMovie and try to open the project, the little rainbow ball pops up and everything in iMovie freezes, forcing me to force quit it again. I removed the project from iMovie and made more space on my computer and iMovie worked fine, but it started acting up again when I put the project back in. I'm worried the project may be corruputed somehow, especially because this is something I worked hard on for a long time now. I've heard there are ways to fix it, such as putting it through TextEdit or Word for Mac, but the project won't open in those programs. (And before you say it, yes I SHOULD have saved a previous version of it in Time Machine, but I didn't.) If there's a way I can fix this project without losing anything, please let me know!

Hello,
I do not know if you have Text Animations in your project? If yes, probably you are having issues due to the latest Flash Player. There is a hotfix to be found in this Captivate blog post:

Lost Power - Now Project Won't Open!

I'm working on an iMac (10.10.2) with an external hard drive.
I was working on the project and some construction next door caused the power to go out. Now the project won't open. Every time I try to open it, the program crashes. I can open other projects from the same hard drive, just not the project that I was working on.
HELP!

IIf that opens, then go into the Original Media folders and look through all the clips and see if they're OK. Any clip that has an actual image that appears in the Finder should be OK. Any clip that has a generic QT icon may be corrupted. See if it will open in the QT player. You can also use QuickLook in the Finder and step through the files in the list to see if the run.
if you were titling also check through all the Fonts on your system and make sure none have generic document icons.

My Robohelp html 8 project won't open after one warning and error message

I'm currently using Robohelp HTML 8 and when I open my project I first get the following message:
After I click OK, I get this error message:
The project won't open after that. When I look ate my files they seem to be intact even though the message says the folder is missing from
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Joy

Hi Joy
Unless I'm mistaken, K would be a network drive, no?
Unfortunately RoboHelp is only one of a host of applications that doesn't fare well if you try to make edits to a project while it resides on a network drive.
Try copying the project to your local C drive. Perhaps create a folder named Projects and copy your project to a folder named Primo Intranet inside that folder so it looks like this:
C:\Projects\Primo Intranet
Once you do this, try opening your project again and you will likely have better luck.
Cheers... Rick

FCPX Project won't open

Hi,
I recently updated my fcpx after doing this one of my projects won't open. In the route project file an additional current version file has been produced it reads as follows - CurrentVersion.fcpproject-journal - Now. When I delete it FCP will open and try to read the project file but it then just wont open fcp at all it just stays on the screen saying reading project.
Can anyone help?
Tom

Interesting…2 of everything.
Close FCP. In the Finder, go your project folder and open it. Take the "normal-looking" back-up and move it one level up in the folder hierarchy, so it's at the same level as the CurrentVersion file – like so.
If there is another oback-up (assuming there are two as in the event) take it and the the two CurrentVersion.fcp files and hide them – as Ian recommended – in a temp folder.
Take a screen shot of your back up file in case you need to change the name back later. Change the name of the moved back up file to CurrentVersion.fcpproject.
Open FCP and try to open the project.

RH8 project won't open

I have an RH8 project that won't open today while it has opened every day for several months now. I deleted the .cpd file but no luck. What to do?
By the way, I searched this forum for "RH8 project won't open" and got 0(zero) results. Anyone know why?

Okay, I see part of my problem. There are duplicate project files
in different places: in c:\ My Robohelp Projects and c:\documents and settings\my documents\ My Robohelp Projects. Also, the xpj file was in the latter. So I moved it to c:\ My Robohelp Projects. In addition, I compared the list of documents in the two c: areas. I moved the xpj file to the c:\ My Robohelp Projects.
And there was a folder with the same name of my project within my project file, which is Callout Guide, so it was c:\ My Robohelp Projects\Callout Guide\Callout Guide. I inherited this project and did not want to make any changes at first since the project was generating and working, until yesterday. So with the duplicate folder, Callout Guide, I copied all the files from it into the first Callout Guide folder, which was c:\ My Robohelp Projects\Callout Guide.
If you're still following me, I believe I have all the files I need in the correct folder. So I opened the xpj file, which opened but is missing all the project files. I know the files are there but I need to point something in the right direction. And all the topics are x'd in red; when I try to search it can't find the file. Here are two screen shots:

My project won't open... It says "locating media" and then gets stuck. What do I do?

try starting a new project and importing your project using the media browser. if that doesn't work just import the sequences from the project via media browser.

My old logic 9 projects won't open properly in logic X

My old logic 9 projects won't open properly in logic X, even after saving as logic X files with all of the assets. None of the audio files are there, nor any of the data. It is just a blank project. Any ideas?

I'm sorry that my post is not going to be very helpful , but I would like to chime in and say I am experiencing this problem too ,
and I consider it to be BOOOOL -- SHUUUT !!!!
I am also experiencing apple app version-incompatibility between PAGES DOCUMENTS , in my pages app , which is just ridiculous !!!
Not being able to open word documents between 1 update of an app !??!?
I used to use apple products because it was convenient and user-friendly. This and many other things are driving me away.
It's getting to be a big irritation.
It is getting to be more and more like windoZe in the sense of being plug-and-PRAY.

Premiere crashed, my project won't open because of an "unknown error," and my autosave apparently stopped working 6 hours ago... Any solution?

I'm working in Premiere Pro CC 2014 on an early 2014 iMac. I started to notice my session was getting kind of buggy - audio clips started missing from my timeline, effect controls on some of my video clips had set themselves to the defaults. So I was trying to fix some of these things as I was editing. I save compulsively (like after every couple of edits), so I had not noticed that my session was no longer auto-saving.
Suddenly Premiere crashed. The recovery file will not open "due to an unknown error." The original file that crashed will not open either (same message), and I notice the file size is about half of what it should be. When I tried to open an auto-saved version, I discovered that the last auto-save was last night at about 10 p.m. (I quit working last night at about 1 a.m., so it just spontaneously stopped autosaving midway through my edit session.)
I followed all the suggestions I could find in forums. I trashed preferences, and I moved all my media into other folders. But the session won't open even far enough that it starts asking for media. When I create a new project and try to import my old edit sequence, dynamic link won't even get to the point where it asks me to select what sequences I want to import. It just sits there forever trying to open the file and can't.
Any suggestions?

Additional info - As I look further into the problem, it's even worse than I thought. The autosave files that say they're from last night are actually referencing work from days ago. So evidently, my auto-save is either putting incorrect time stamps on the files, or the project files are referencing old sequences. Either way, I cannot seem to locate a project file that contains a reasonably recent version of my cut, even though the time/date stamps on the files indicate they shouldn't be that old.

Replaced an asset and now project won't open

I was finishing up some subtitles when I noticed an audio problem that needed to be corrected.
So I saved my DVDSP4 project, quit the program, then made a quick audio cut in FCP. The amount of audio cut was less than a second. And because I cut my audio, I had to make a cut in my video.
Then I exported using Compressor (DVD Best Quality - 90 mins). I saved over the original asset, figuring I could save some time and have DVDSP automatically update the altered asset.
That was my mistake. I've spent the better part of two days adding subtitles to this project, and now the frigging thing won't open.
When I opened the DVDSP project file, all my windows are missing excpect for the Palette and Inspector windows. The majority of menu options from the menu bar couldn't be accessed.
However, when I open DVDSP from my dock, it opens up, all the windows are there, and the menu bar is fully functional. When I try to open the project file I've been working on using File>Open and File>Open Recent, I lose my windows and functionality.
Any suggestions as to correct the problem?

If Houghts' suggestion doesn't clear the problem initially, you could try going back a stage (in FCP).
First make a copy of your new .m2v & sound files with a different name, and also the DVD SP project.
Next open the edited film in FCP. Assuming you have the sequence for the previous edit, redo the playout with the same settings and name you that had originally, and without the one second cut. Overwrite the originally named files with these. Exit FCP. Delete all the PAR files and prefs for DVD SP again, as per Houghts above.
Now try opening your project - since the assets referred to are the same length as before, there's a chance that DVD SP won't get confused, and will re-link to them.
If it opens, you are back on track and can import the new versions, replace, then delete, as per Houghts above.

Project Won't Open!

Hi all,
I've been working on a FCP project for the last week, however when I try and open up the file today FCP 6.0 freezes on 36% of the 'reading project' bar. Eventually it comes up with a message that says something like 'the file is newer than the current software version' - which I know is not the case.
In a possibly related issue Photoshop CS2 won't open today either.
A friend mentioned that the QT update to 7.4 has been causing problems, but I'm still running 7.3.1.
Does anyone have any other suggestions for the sudden cause of my problem?
System: Mac Book Pro 2.2GHz running Leopard 10.5.1
Any help here would be appreciated! I'm due to start a big project tomorrow!
Thank you.

I'm having the same issue with 2 projects that I know of.
Both were originally created and finished in 5.1.4. I since upgraded to FCP 6 and had to go back work on those again. While working on those I upgraded to 6.0.1 to resolve some issues and everything went fine from there. I finished the work needed on those.
I've since upgraded my 2 systems (a MacPro and an Air) to Leopard and upgraded FCP to 6.0.2. the Air is using the original username and the MacPro is using a completely different username. I now need to work on one of those two projects again. We'll call that Proj1. I have the original 5.1.4 file and the newer 6.0.1 file. I cannot open either in 6.0.2 using the new username on the Mac Pro. If I login with the old username on the Mac Pro then Proj1 saved in 6.0.1 will open. Same results with Proj2 when I tested that. I took the project files to the Air that is using only the original username and they open fine.
Basically, it's a username issue and very annoying. How can I change the username of the project? I checked the sharing and permissions in the Info screen for all the project files and media and the new username does have read and write access for all of them. I've repaired permissions as well. Still no luck.
EDIT: I'd email the projects, but they're each over 100MB.

Project won't open after upgrade to FCP 6

I upgraded from FCP5 to 6, but now my current 107 Mb project file won't open (and neither will recent older versions of it). As FCP is reading the file, a message appears: "The filter 'shift fields' has been incorrectly applied. Do you want to fix?" Whether I reply yes or no, FCP crashes. There ARE some shift field filters used in the project. Should I open in FCP on another computer and remove all filters (A LOT of work and not guaranteed to find all of them)? An older, smaller project file WILL open.
Help! We're right in the middle of a big job!

Did you ever figure out how to open your file? I have the EXACT same problem - my file is 150MB. Big deadline, flew someone out to work on it and now I'm stuck!

HELP! Project won't open, saying javascript errors

Hi,
I was working on a project and now it won't open. It's giving me the error: "Loading failed, Please check your page for JavaScript errors." I have opened up the js files in Dreamweaver and in Chrome to inspect element and there seems to be no syntax errors that are being called out. I tried to comment out the code as well and reopen and that does not work. All I was doing was saving new instances of a graphic and changing the stage size when I closed it. I even rebooted my computer but still can't open the project. I did not do anything at all to the js files so not sure what the problem is.
Can anyone please please help me??
-Kristie

It seems like you have changed the name of the symbol Definition, after you have instantiated it on the stage.
And that symbol name is: "custServ_Txt" and while instantiated on the stage its name was "custServTxt".
So, on line#124 in file zapposWinter_edge.js, if you change the line:
symbolName: 'custServTxt',
to
symbolName: 'custServ_Txt',
then things will work fine.

Imovie project won't open in imovie?

I was working on my macbook in iMovie '09 on a project on a seagate external hard drive and the events was on the hard drive also. I've never had any problems with it crashing on me until this project and I just used it the day before. After 15 minutes into the project i try adding another title in and it just kept crashing from then on out when i try to add a title and preview the project in full screen.
To add to problem I unplugged the external hard drive (properly) and plugged it in my iMac imovie '11 and just added one title. Then I took the external hard drive back to my macbook and now the project won't even appear in imovie. And when i find the file itself in the hard drive and click to open it, it opens imovie but still no project. Somebody please help. I would greatly appreciated it.
It wouldn't be problem to work on it on my imac expect i have other people using it through out the day and my macbook is easier for me to work on where ever i'm at.
Please somebody say you have the answer?

I am only guessing but I suspect the problem occurs when they edit their projects on their personal Macs running Yosemite with iMovie 10.0.7. Editing (and possibly just opening) in 10.0.7 probably makes the projects incompatible with iMovie 10.0.6, the latest version that runs under Mavericks.
It would not be the first time that even minor updates to iMovie make backwards-incompatible changes to projects.
Downgrading form 10.0.7 to 10.0.6 is not at all a straightforward option so other than updating all machines to Yosemite, I'm not aware of a simple fix.
Geoff.
