Borisfx.Title 3D causing FCP to crash when sequence is opened

I have an older FCP project, that was originally created
around 2001. this project file has been actively used over the 8- 9 years, never really having any problems. the project file has been successfully updated from FCP Express to FCP4 to FCP 6.06.
But recently, when I tried to open several of the sequences in this project, FCP
crashes and says that BorisFX Title 3D is to blame. I've tried everything, opening the project on PPC G5, opening on Intel Mac, Leopard OS, Tiger OS. Tried updating and reinstalling Boris Calligraphy to 2.2, tried trashing FCP preferences, tried Disk Warrior, etc - nothing works.
the only thing i can do to get these sequences to open is remove the com.borisfx.Title 3D plug-in from the FCS plug-ins folder in the Library.
Then if I try to open the sequence, FCP tells me the plug-in is missing and asking me to look for it, after that the sequence will open, but all the titles created with 3d Title are useless.
Does anyone have any suggestions, I would really like to avoid rebuilding all the titles.
thanks,
steve

yes, i tried that, didn't help. I've also tried opening the old versions from the FCP "Autosave Vault" - some copies go back to 2004, they won't open. Something must have happened because I was able to work on these sequences about 4 to 6 months ago.
here's the crash log (sorry for the bad formatting):

  • FCP keeps crashing when loading thumbnails from bin

    Hey folks,
    I am having constant issues where FCP keeps crashing when I load a bin with thumbnails. This doesn't happen every time I open a bin, but after I open say 6 or 7 bins. After the research I have done I have come to a couple of possible solutions 1= this previous post
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9545404#9545404
    The only thing that is stopping me from trying this procedure is I don't have another Mac with the VADriver, so I have to extract it from the OS DVD, which is fine thanks to the Pacifist program which makes it easier, but I don't know how to get the specific file extracted.
    I also noticed that the guy who solved the same issue with this procedure has an older OS to mine, so surely with the new OS the problem would have been resolved??
    2= the other solution seems to be to put the footage onto a hard drive with a faster connection other than firewire 800. But this doesn't seem right to me because the project worked perfectly fine on the old PowerPC Mac using the same external FW800 drives I am using on this computer.
    I would appreciate any advice. at this point I am probably wasting around 1-2 hours a day with FCP crashing and having to reopen the project to work on it again.
    Anyone having similar issues?

    Here's what the fabulous Crash Analyzer says about it:
    *MPEG Media*
    This crash appears to have been caused by MPEG media (or MPEG-derived media such as XDCAM, HDV or H.264) in the timeline. MPEG-based media is not recommended for editing in Final Cut Pro.
    *Suggested Actions*
    Set the codec of your sequence to ProRes in Sequence Settings.
    Alternatively, and for best results, transcode any HDV, MPEG-2, XDCAM, AVCHD, H.264 or other long-GOP media into an editing-friendly format such as ProRes or Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC).

    Process for creating a test file is as follows
    Via youtube and your preferred browser, search for any video file (eg rubik's cube), select a video and start to watch it.  Choose Share, Embed and copy the link information (eg <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/MaltgJGz-dU"
    frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>)
    Close browser and create a new powerpoint 2013 presentation.
    Insert, Video, Online Video
    In the "From a Video Embed Code" box, paste the link information then click the arrow to apply
    Save the file and then Right Click on the file and Preview.
    In advance of the creation/running, I've applied the following KBs to the machine(s)
    kb2817636 & kb2837627
    As i said at the start, members of the Power Uses or Administrators group don't have this issue - but as 99% of our users are "users" and not really an option to make them all members of PU group.
    Same also happens if the computer is removed from the domain.  Admin & power users work, standard users crash IE.
    Uninstall and reinstall of Office 2013 and IE11 has no apparent difference.
    Assistance in this is appreciated.
    Thanks
    Jon

    hi Jon, do you have all available updates installed for your PowerPoint? Install the two KB in the links below, then test again:

  • Long files hierarchy causes autocad to crash when printing to a pdf

    Long files hierarchy causes autocad to crash when printing to a pdf.

    Tylerdowner,
    Uninstalled and reinstalled Flash. No change. The only thing that seems to consistently resolve the problem is disabling the Flash plugin.
    I tried creating a new profile, but when I transfer the data suggested in this:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    I get an error window when opening firefox with the new profile ...something about security settings not working correctly...but I can print every time even though the Flash plugin appears to be installed and enabled. So I assume there is some kind of problem with my current profile. Any suggestions on how to find and correct it or a way to get most of my data into a new profile...that works...would be appreciated.

  • Word Crashes when trying to open file from network

    This is a very similar issue like this thread
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sv-FI/officeitpro/thread/95bc7898-e92d-4e47-8f73-390dba53e851 I cannot open any document from any network share, mapped drive or network place- Word Immediately crashes saying "Microsoft Word has stopped working",
    tries to find a solution and then closes. This can be caused by any means of access the file- directly double clicking from explorer or using the Open command in word, it even crashes when using the Open command, and then just clicking once on a
    mapped drive or Network header.
    I can however copy any file from the network to the local machine and it opens fine. I have tried (With no change in symptoms):
    Safe mode (word), remove & recreate normal templates, repair office, uninstall-reinstall office, updated all updates, disabled offline files, removed protected view settings, trusted network documents, disabled auto-save, virus scans (SEP, Malwarebytes,
    TDSSKiller), system restore to 2 weeks ago- prior to when user said issued started, reinstalled & updated again after restore, and many other things I can't think of right now.
    I have tried to run procmon.exe from sysinternals but get a message saying that "c:\windows\system32\fltlib.dll is either not designed to run on windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again......"
    I tried the instruction on the linked topic above to create a dump file, but no file was created.
    This is only happening on one workstation on the network. Win7Pro, x64, Office 2010 Standard.
    I am at my wits end, and need some help!

    I have replaced the fltlib.dll file and am now able to run procmon, I also have run sfc /scannow which says it found corrupt files but was not able to repair them. When trying to view the files that need to be fixed it says that sfcdetails.txt cannot be
    opened. If I run the same command with out the destination of desktop/sfcdetails.txt, then it displays the files in the cmd window, but there are what to appear to be hunderds of files.
    I have both logs (procmon & sfc) but they only make partial sense to me. And I still cannot open office files from a network location.

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

    Since the os7 update on my iPad, my safari is not right, it only opens one page at a time, crashes when trying to open more, it has no back button. Help

    Well, I rebuilt the entire workbook... that was a few months ago and so far, the problem hasn't resurfaced. It really wasn't fun to do, but whatever glitch there was in the file, I eliminated it.
    I think I should mention that I am using Office v.X, NOT Office 2004. I got a new Intel iMac this week and yesterday when I opened up my files, it opened up the test drive (a JOKE of a program if you ask me) Anyway, some of the very minor issues I had with Office v.X were solved in the 2004 version. (When opening up large multi worksheet files without Excel being already opened, the tabs have white text) Anyway, I am still going to wait for the universal version to come out, but it seems that the newer versions may have fewer glitches (as is to be expected)
    At any rate, best of luck to you!

  • Acrobat 9.4.4 Pro Crashes When Attempting to Open PDF Form

    OS: Win XP Pro SP3
    The  machine worked fine until Acrobat updated itself to 9.4.4 then the  problem started.  Crashes when attempting to open most PDF Forms - even  when freshly rebooted or repaired.  I originally thought it was related  to a browser or Outlook 2007, but later found that it does it under all  circumstances.  It is my General Manager's machine having the problem,  so I need to get this resolved ASAP.  Your experience and assistance is  much appreciated.
    My temporary fix was to uninstall 9.4.4 - Install 9.0  and turn off automatic updates - worked beautifully.  It would be nice to get to the bottom of this so we can update our CS4 products.
    Another user reported this problem on May 16, 2011 and no one has replied to his post.
    Thanks in advance.

    Please repost in the Acrobat Windows forum.

  • Crashing when trying to open a project / forgetting where media files are

    I spent all day manually locating hundreds of missing 'offline media' in a project, saving as I went. Premier Elements crashed when this was complete, now I try to open the project after rebooting and it either cannot find them again or crashes when trying to open the project. Anyone got any clues as to how I can fix this?

    alex peatfield
    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    How long has this issue existed?
    Are you moving, deleting, renaming files and folders that go into a project after the project has been saved closed?
    If you have source media stored on an external hard drive, determine if the external hard drive is malfunctioning, including if its drive letter
    changing.
    Lots of drill questions...
    a. Running the program from a User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    b. Latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer?
    c. What are your computer resources and is your computer optimized?
    d. What are the properties of your source media that are involved in this issue?
    e. Where are the Scratch Disks directed and how much free hard drive space is at those locations?
    f. Do the problems exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?
    Let us start here and then we can decide what next.
    Thanks.

  • Why does FCP X crash when I apply a text layer?

    I just bought FCP X and was very happy with everything until I tried to add a text layer to the timeline.  The software tried to access the text attributes and crashed.  I re-opened the software and clicked on the text layer to delete it and FCP crashed.  The only solution was to delete the project, I am glad that I was not working on something important and tried to add this text layer.  The next day I went to the coffee shop and suddenly it worked...I was thrilled.  I thought that the external drives at my home might have been the problem since none are plugged in at the coffee shop. Did some more tests back at the house and it crashed. Today it back to the same status of crashing. 
    Has this happened to anyone else? 
    My work around for this problem is to build the title in Motion 5 and then import the quicktime with alpha to FCP event/project and then apply it to the video in the timeline of FCP.  Not very efficient.
    Running the software on a MacBook Pro late 2009, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo,  Memory  4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB

    I am using 10.1.3 and finding it very unstable. I've taken some time to work with it a little while before I responded to your posted response. After updating projects and files, I did manage to share the master file. I am still finding random crashes that get to a point where I cannot launch FCP X until I restart the computer. It seems to crash consistently when trying to share DVD. The previous version did not have all these issues. I really wish I finished my current project before trying to update FCP X.
    Other info regarding my current system: MacBook Pro 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4Gb memory. I am running OS X 10.9.5.
    Thanks,

  • FCP X crashes when dragging effects into the timeline

    FCP X will crash when I try to drag an effect from the effects panel into the timeline. This happens for effects, transitions, titles - the lot.
    The weird thing is, this only happens on some events, others are fine. Has anyone else experienced this and/or found a fix?
    Thanks,
    J

    Unfortunately I can't get that far in the process to be able to answer your question.
    The crash doesn't occur when I try to add a transition to a file or storyboard - it happens when I try to drag the transition outside of it's own panel.
    As you can see in the screenshot, when the file being dragged touches the red line, FCP shuts down without warning.
    Very confusing and annoying!
