Electrical clicking noise through speakers when I open Final Cut ???

Hi,
When I open Final Cut, as its opening I hear electrical clicking noises coming through my speakers.
Also when I open Log and Capture I hear several electrical clicking noises.
This just started within the past few months, I don't know if Leopard had anything to do with it?
Does anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks

When FCP launches, it checks out the pathways for the audio and video... like if you've set it to be connected to a DV camera, it looks for it during boot up. If it doesn't find it, it opens a window warning you it's not there.
Just open the apple menu's preferences, and change the setting somehow in the audio control panel there. that will reset it.
The other thing you might try is resetting the PMU or SMU on your machine. These guys reset the power management system wide. Might help, and won't hurt. You need to search the Support area's front page here on "PMU" or SMU to find out how to do this for your particular machine. It's different from one mac to the next... but it's easy to do.

so this means that all my work isn't completely gone?
Your work will still be there, you just have to go through Updating your older pre 10.1. stuff to the new Library model way of doing things.
Follow Tom's suggestions to the letter and things should go smoothly.

When i open final cut pro x when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

when i open final cut pro x when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

Possible corrupted project or media fies. Here's what I'd suggest.
First trash preferences. If that doesn't work…
Move your Final Cut Projects folder into a folder named Hidden Folder. See if FCP then launches. If it doesn't hide your Final Cut Events folder. Once FCP launches successfuly, create a test event and project.
To track down the problem, successively move load events and projects from hideen to their proper location and open FCP. When and if you get the crash you have hopefully located the problem.
The easiest way to do this is to purchace Event Manager X ($5).
Good luck.

Hi,
I have read in this forum that keyboard problems may be solved updating Bios. You should try it:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=60
you can check if a new version is available for your lap:
http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
Note, Bios update is a tricky procedure that can finish with total system collapse if it goes wrong. Moreover, the warranty doesn't cover bios failure. Anyway, try to restore os to bring the factory setting before touching the bios

Graphics Card Crashes When I Open Final Cut X

Never happend before, i started a project for a timelapse video and loaded about 3000 photos into final cut, loaded them to the timeline and 10 seconds later my whole computer restarted. I tryed opening again, right when my project opens, my computer restarts again.
I have the imac 27" mid 2011, everything updated, i have 16gb ram with about 600gb free harddrive space.
I know its my graphics card causing the problem for sure knowing by using Pro Maintenance tools. Im using Final Cut X (10.0.6).
What do i do, im stressting out!!!!!

If you're certain it is the graphic card then you're only recourse is to have it repaired by Apple or an Authorized shop.
If you're near an Apple Store then that wil be the quickest solution.

Noise through speakers when Airport active

Hi,
I have a strange problem with my new MBP: When I set the Airport netwoork as active, I hear LOUD noises (sort of like a modem sound" through the speakers, this is not affected by the volume control (seeme to be at maximum all the time, very annoying)
All I can do to stop the sound is either turn Airport off or insert a dummy plug in the headphone plug...
Anyone with the same problem or any idea for a solution?
Thanks
Allan

I'm afraid I can't help, except to say I have the same problem with my FW 400 and 800 ports when I connect a Firewire hard drive. The noise sounds like it's coming from inside the computer itself and it happens even with the audio muted. I wonder if this problem might be related to the Firewire "noise" / "chirp" issue I've seen discussed?

Plugging in a headset disables the speaker...nothing you can do to work around that.

HT203477 Why does my computer quit unexpectedly when I click on "Show the Project Library" in Final Cut Pro X ?

Hello,
When I click on "Show the Project Library" on Final Cut Pro X program, my computer unexpectedly quits.
I just purchased an iMac 27in screen, (16G Ram) and all the features suggested by the Apple representative to run Final Cut Pro X.
The program was working well for about a week. Afterward, I downloaded all my iMovie projects. I'm wondering if that has created this problem.
Any suggestions as to what the solution might be? Thanks.
Jack

Over the year I've used FCPX, it' s gone through "spells" where specific actions would crash it - much as you describe. Trashing preferences has nearly always fixed things. Several times, when it did not, I reinstalled the app.
However, I've never imported an iMovie project so I can't give any first hand advice. It will be interesting to see whether FCPX opens if it doesn't see those projects. (per Tom Wolsky's advice.)

I just updated my RAM and I keep getting a crash report. I have a 21.5 Inch mid 2010 imac. I also am experiencing slow load times and when I try to open Final Cut it says that quartz extreme is not compatible and that I have no VRAM even though I do.

There have been a few reports on here where Corsair RAM seems to have caused users a lot of grief with crashes.
The recommendation on here, mostly, is to only buy RAM from macsales.com or crucial.com as they guarantee their modules will work and offer a no quibble lifetime guarantee.
I'd put the original RAM back in, return the Corsair chips for a refund and re-order from one of those two companies.

Hi, I am having trouble opening Final Cut on my Macand opens only when in the Administrator account. nyone know why please? Thanks

Having trouble opening Final Cut on my Mac and opens only when in the Administrator account and not when in Guest account. anyone know why please? Thanks

Yes... I can confirm this too...
If I load up my clips with no audio into the timeline, stuttering is there immediately.
Then I add an audio track to the timeline and the stutter vanishes.
Then, if I turn down the volume of the audio to zereo or - 46 dB. The stuttering reappears.
If, however, I place the cursor (Skimmer) in a clip prior to hitting play, the stutter vanishes yet again...
I adore FCPx and after getting to know it, there really is NO going back for me. This app is more than a decade ahead of its time and it's new. And still in a sort of beta-phase. At least that is what I tell myself so that I can deal with it ;-)
At least now we know ONE reason why stuttering appears and by identifying the problem, we can solve it !

I can't open Final Cut because of huge project

Hey everyone,
I'm working on a timelapse project in 10.0.9 on my MacPro5,1 with OSX 10.9 (13A603). I have the OS, final cut and the project and event files running on a 240 solid state SATA drive within the tower. AND lastly I have 16gb of RAM
So basically my problem is that this timelapse project is about 33gb large and when opening Final Cut it lags for anywhere between 2 and 5 hours to open. Once it is open I have to wait for the project to load which takes no time at all (1 minute or so). But when I start playback, pause and then try to play again I get the spinning beach ball of death.
I know my project is immense, but this can't be the biggest project of all time. Especially with the new RED cameras and RAW 4k footage. So what am I doing wrong? I don't want to throw out and start all over, but at the same time I know that that is a possibility that I'm going to have to cope with.
Also I've done the Repair Permissions, Repair disk and cleaned many extra unnecesary files within the computer already. So that's not an issue.
Can anyone help me? I'm supposed to have the project done by this Saturday, November 30th, 2013.
I appreciate any and all help.

For a start try trashing the preferences with this free app.
http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
Shut down FCP X, open PreferenceManager and in the window that appears:-
1. Ensure that only FCP X is selected.
2. Click Trash and the job is done.
Perfectly safe as the preferences are separate from the app and when you re-open FCP X it will create new ones.
Many weird things happen as a result of corrupt preferences which can create a vast range of different symptoms, so whenever FCP X stops working properly in any way, trashing the preferences should be the first thing you do.

"media server application expectly quit" when submitting from final cut pro

browsing through the list, it seems the problem couldn´t be solved so far.
doing some systematic testing, the following riddle shows up:
... when adding a QT ref movie (or movie) directly to the compressor batch list and submit to the cluster, everything runs fine.
... when exporting from final cut pro:
menu -> export -> using compressor ...
submitting in compressor using:
1) Cluster: this computer: everything keeps running fine.
2) Cluster: MylovelyCluster ....
the job fails with the message "Failed: HOST [clusternode_name.local] media server application unexpectedly quit"
since there is 5TB + of data to be compressed, copying files to the render nodes is not an option. all data is on a shared xraid, connected via giganet.
Any ideas, any hints appreciated !
regards,
p.s. Anybody running an XSAN having the same issues?
G5s, G4s, G3s, macminis, powerbooks Mac OS X (10.4.7) xraid

... well, the answer is in other topics.
showstopper explains it patently again and again ...
thanks from here.
shortly: when submitting from FCP, every node HAS to have FCP installed and MUST have access to the same relative file path (mounted shared volume). If the volume is not present, the render node will open the reconnect media dialogue and waits for user input.
