FCP X wont save!!

im facing an annoying problem that i can seem to find out the solution for! everytime i create a new project and i edit a 4 mins music video on, i close it and open it after hrs to work on it again, its not there anymore!! isnt FCP saves automatically?!?! this is the second time this happens to me and cant find the answer anywhere on the web!..pls help!

Have you haven't already updated to Final Cut Pro X version 10.0.1, then do so NOW.
If your still having this problem, try trashing your preferences using this free tool http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/ and maybe do a disk permission repair.
You can also try creating a new blank project before you close FCPX, just make sure you double click on the blank project before closing.
Let me know if any of those work.

  • Illustrator CS4 wont save files, please help?

    You can edit a file, go to save, close it down, then when you re-open it the changes made have not been saved?? No error message or warning pops up, and it all looks ok like it has saved properly, until you open it up again. This also happens when you use 'save as' command if you use the original file name. If however you type in a different file name - it saves ok. But obviously that is not great as you cant now trust or rely on the save mechanism of the programme, to make sure any changes to artwork have been stored!! I have never seen an issue like this, it is worrying, I hope somebody can help?
    Thanks.
    We are running CS4 on windows7 - yes PC!!!

    We save in EPS, and its not just one file, its a variety of different files and it seems to be random as to which files it does it on, some work fine - some don't. And it can be anything from a minor text change to a colour change, it doesnt seem to matter on the change made, it reacts the same.
    The files are saved over a network connection to a large external hard drive.
    Its really puzzling and now starting to cause problems as we do a fair bit of work in it, and can't trust one of the most important features, and that any changes that have been done have been saved and stored!
    Hope maybe you can help with any thoughts at all.
    Cheers.

    What file format do you save it in?
    What kinds of changes did you make in that file?
    Where do you save the file (removable or network media)?

  • Help!!! Flash CS3 and CS4 wont save .gifs

    Ok, so im trying to save my project as a .gif and it just wont save it right, it marks as if it has already been saved, but when i open the .gif it just displays the first frame.......any help? Am i doing something wrong???? the actual file that im saving is a small animation, with 1 sec of animation, 10 frames, and its appx. 100 x 100 pixels I thought it was the size, but it was not. Any help plz?????
    Note, it does saves it right in .swf  but not on .gif

    Those links, did helped me, but that didnt correct the problems that i was getting.
    Here is the thing, at least this is how it worked for me.
    I was editing the original picture on fireworks, and saw that instead of layers, it was creating bitmap images, saved it as fireworks pdn and imported to flash, and when i finish it didnt save the gif.
    I instead opened the original on photoshop, and it created layers instead bitmap, saved it as a photoshop image, opened it on flash, worked on it, and well, guess what??? it did saved it as a gif!!!!!
    So wierd, but, why won't it save it from the fireworks one into a gif, and the photoshop one worked good? 
    It didnt helped me alot mate, but i still thank you for reading this post bro, thanks, and have a nice day ^_^

  • Why Itunes wont save the art works that i add to pdf files?

    I'm not able to add covers to my pdf files in the library, when i try to, the cover that i moved to the artwork box wont save.

    Windows Media Player 12 ought to be able to play most of the same file types that iTunes can. See Getting iTunes & Windows Media Player to play nicely for tips on letting both players share a common set of media files.

  • Image wont save as it looks in photoshop.

    I'm a pretty amateur user of photoshop, but I've been having this problem with an image I'm working on; it wont save as it looks in photoshop.
    Basically, this is what I'm looking at when the psd file is open in Photoshop:
    This is how I would like the image to look when I save it. However, when I save it as a JPEG (or any other format for that matter) it looks like this:
    The saved image is a JPEG file with a resolution of 500x500, the image I'm working with in photoshop has an image size of 7000x7000. Also, the image seems to produce different results when saved at different resolutions. It's very confusing.
    Here is my layers also:
    I am also using a Halftone filter set to subtract on this image, giving the image the lines across the image (shown here as layer 1).
    Anyone have any idea why this is happening and/or what I'm doing wrong?

    There's no reason an image should be downsampled upon saving (from 7000 to 500 pixels), unless you specifically tell it to using the Image Size dialog. The only exception I can think of is if you use Save For Web, which has a number of default settings you should keep an eye on. But a 7000 pixel image has no business on the web anyway (that's w a y too big).
    Resampling will obviously affect an image like this (with the line screen) in a number of ways. You should only work on this at the final intended pixel size.

  • Occasionaly my FCP does not save on exit, is it just me?

    On some occasions varies, fcp does not save on exit, it just goes. Other times its polite and says , wanna save ya changes mate?
    Yes there has been changes made cos on re open the stuff I done has gone!
    I do try and save manually as often as I can learning this, and I have auto save on 5 mins.
    I just think its a bit poor on continunity, either dont save on exit or save, rather than giving me the run around.
    Does this happen with you guys or just me? please add your comments

    sounds like FCP is crashing on exit
    I would perform all the usual maintenance proceudres:
    trash FCP preferences

  • Settings changed wont save after reboot

    Any changes that i do in my Mac, wont save after reboot.
    If i change the settings on my mouse (unchecking Scroll direction) next time i reboot, it will be checked again.
    Any changes that i do to my Finder sidebar (like adding My Main Drive not visible, add downloads and pictures, change the foler view as columns) they are all gone after i reboot. Its getting freakin anoying. I Google for a solution but to find none.
    When trying to opening Calender, it says that i dont have permission. I have gone to the application and checked and made sure that all acounts have r/w permissions.
    On the Dock, i uninstalled an app and next reboot i will get a question mark, even tho i removed it before it comes back after the reboot.
    Thanks for listening.

    May sound silly, but are you sure you're not logging in as the 'Guest' user? What privileges does the user account you're using have? Check in
     > System Preferences... Users & Groups
    that the account you're using is Admin. If you're using a Standard account, are parental controls enabled?
    If you are admin, try resetting your permissions and removing the sys pref property file. Before you do that, backup your system and user data. Once you're backed up, open Terminal and copy/paste the following into the Terminal window:
    rm ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    hit 'return'. If the prompt returns without an error (as it should), paste this
    sudo chown -R `id -un` ~
    hit 'return'. Enter your password as requested, but type carefully as it will be invisible while you do.
    This will take a while, but after the command finishes (i.e., when the prompt returns), restart the mac.
    After the restart, set the mac up the way you want, then test whether the problem is fixed by restarting again to see if your changes were kept.

  • Ipod wont save music

    Tried to add additional music to Ipod Touch but something went wrong and I had to restore it.  Once I restored the IPod wont save any music.  It goes through the syncing stage and when its finished the music file is empty.  Is there any way of fixing this?

    I would recomend trying to restore again, but don't do ANYTHING until it's done (both on you computer and on your iPod).
    When it's done restroing, try playing some songs from within iTunes. Do they play? If yes, try syncing again. And don't touch anything. If the songs in iTunes don't play, you know that the song files in iTunes itself are corrupted, and you might want to re-import or re download. Then try syncing again.
