FCP not responding, help!

Hi there,
I have some serious trouble. I am running FCP 5.1 and I cannot open my program. I have recently had low disc space, but have now freed up space on my start up disc, but still the program will not open. It starts to load but does not get any further than the title screen with serial number etc. Looking in the Activity monitor, it comes up red with a not responding message. I have tried restart and using Onyx to do maintenance on the system, but to no avail!
Suggestions? I have to deliver a DVD tomorrow so please let me know any and all thoughts on what I might try next!
Thank you in advance!!!

  • HT1414 my screen is frozen, not responding.help.

    Just got a new ipad two weeks ago, and the screen is frozen and not responding to touch, what can I do ?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Fan running at high when cpu not being used, Macbook not responding - Help!

    Please help!
    Quite often now when I leave my macbook for an a few hours (the screen goes to sleep but not the computer), I come back to the fan running at full speed and then when I touch the trackpad, I can move the mouse around, but nothing responds (i.e. when I move the mouse over the dock, the dock doesn't pop up...and I can't click anything on the desktop). So I have to hold down the power button to shut it off and then restart the computer. Then it works fine, but if I leave it for a while and come back, half the time I come back I encounter this problem again.
    Any help?

    Check your activity monitor. Sounds like you have a program running in the back ground your not aware of.
    You might also try to reset the SMC and/or PRAM.

  • Application windows do not respond - help please!

    Hi everyone
    At first I should say that I did search for this topic in search forum section but all of the cases related to freezing windows app. do not match my problem.
    So recently something strange occurs: my app windows freezes (I mean I can't close them nor move them) while everything else works (app is responding) - I can quit it using dock. And when I open it again it appears in strange place like the edge of my screen. It happens with very simple apps like: Finder, Safari and iTunes.
    The whole thing started the day before (I don't know if it could be related to this) I have installed cocktail - to clean my macbook and quicksilver.
    things I tried: I verified and repaired permissions using Disk Utility. I have also verified Disk (it showed me minor error with disk header) and redpaired it using installation disks.
    An the problem still occurs!
    Please help!

    I have a similar problem, but for me the unresponsive application (iTunes is doing this as I write) cannot be quit using the dock. Initially, when it first became unresponsive, The arrow still appears under its dock icon to indicate it is there, but when I right-mouse the icon, it goes into the state as if the application was not running (no arrow). Right mouse shows "Open" as an option. I can see the app right there...
    Activity monitor sees it and allows me to quit it (gracefully - no force quit required) then the app will launch and All is well... until another app exhibits this strange behavior. I have seen this happen to iTunes, Safari, and Finder most often.
    At first I thought it had something to do with safari 3 beta, so I backed that out. Only other things I can think that have changed on my system since when it was in working state was Parallels Desktop 3.0 and the 10.4.10 upgrade. It has been misbehaving since June (through several security updates etc).

  • FCP not responding during compression

    The last few times I 've tried to use Compressor w/ FCP, I get about 95% complete and then it freezes. FCP won't respond and I have to do a Force Quit. I do this everyday and this is the first time I've had this problem. I need to have this working again. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

    Here's a place to start: check to see if your computer is running out of:
    1. Disk space - Do you have enough free space on ALL the disks for this?
    2. RAM - Its not usual to run out of RAM unless you are tight on system disk space and the virtual ram hits a ceiling
    3. Patience - Perhaps the piece is just too banal? Compressor can't take it anymore and just gets up and leaves?
    Or, it could be a corrupted file/render at that point in the timeline. - Try deleting the renders in that area and running it again.
    more information please.

  • When I try to open it, it shows a little box that you can't maximize and if you try to close it it says ''the application is not responding'' help?

    Hello, I really need your help. When I try to open firefox, nothing happens or it will open a really small and empty window in the top corner of my laptop. That window cannot be maximized and if I try to close it either nothing happens or it says that the program stopped working. I dezinstalled it and installed it again 3 times... I don't know what to do anymore. Any help would be appreciated!

    Could you see whether Firefox will start in its Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    Here's how:
    With Firefox closed, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox.
    A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Does that work?

  • IPhoto Version 8.1.2 is not responding, HELP!

    I have two accounts on my Mac, my regular account and my Emergency account. I only got this MacBook last summer for Graduation and it is my college computer so it's really important for me to get it fixed. On my regular account I used iPhoto all the time and didn't use it much on the emergency account until recently. When I click on the iPhoto in my dock on my regular account in bounces in the dock and opens the window but it is just grey application window with the spinning rainbow beachball of death! When I go onto my Emergency account and use iPhoto was working fine but recently has been acting up as well.. I've given you a screenshot of my main account and what happens when I open iPhoto, that's all it does until I force quit the application and 'report the problem' to Mac but I have yet to have a response over the past 3 months!!
    I tried everything I possibly know of - getting rid of the Alias in the dock, cleaning out the prefs folder, tried redoing the Applications disc that I got with my Mac, I'm not sure what else to do. PLEASE HELP!
    I might end up having to take my Mac into the Apple store but I would really like to save the time and try to look for some answers on here! Thanks
