Fcpx gets stuck restoring window layout

basically final cut pro was working fine until i did a reinstall of snow leopard . then it wouldn't open saying its not compatable , i had this problem before the fix was to install prokit 7.0 , which i managed to do and now final cut pro x gets stuck at "restoring window layout" and some times the windows do open but they are extremely glitchy , i have deleted the preference in library - preferences i've deleted the files in the layout folder , and i've deleted everything and reinstalled fcpx . NOTHING WORKS!!!. and i would appreciate any help someone could throw at me . i'm using a late 2009 21.5" imac baseline. and running snow leopard 10.6.8 . would installing lion gold master work??? do i need a completely fresh erase and install of my hd .?????

not to worry Lion fixed all issues with final cut pro!!! LION FTW

    My FCP 10.1 is freezing at  "Restore window layout" I am running on mavericks and the layout folder in not in library/applications support/ final cut pro... What do I do ???

    Had the same issues. For me, I found unmounting any external drives and relaunching FCPX worked.
    Mavericks seems to have some issues with launching Final Cut, so its best to launch and then plug in any external drives - hope that helps.

  • Final cut pro stalls on restoring window layout

    Hey all
    Having installed Yosemite my Final Cut Pro will not open. It stalls during the boot up phase saying "restoring window layout".
    I have tried removing the Layouts folder from the Library as detailed here Final Cut Pro X: May stop responding at "Restoring the window layout" or open to a gray window  but it does not work.
    Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
    Thanks

  • G570 gets stuck on windows startup screen, removing battery allows boot up.

    Hi,
    I have a G570 i5 with 640GB and 4GB ram, it has been working fine up until one month ago. Now for some reason it sometimes get stuck at the windows start up screen. There it sits and never gets any further. I can reboot multiple times with the same effect, then suddenly the Laptop works again, runs and boots fine for a few days until the next random stop.
    I have tried the folowing things:
    Operating system re-install. No difference, still happens.
    System restore. No differnece.
    Changing Bios systtings for USB and Disk systems
    Virus checked
    checked memory and Hard disk drive
    Fixed master boot reccord.
    The only thing that seems to work is: when the stop happens, shut down laptop. Remove battery. Reboot using mains. This works until the next time, when I then have to put the battery back in.
    Any ideas as to what causes this or why it happens? It's driving me crazy as I'm trying to do a dissertation!! When the computer runs it runs well.
    Solved!

  • Final Cut Pro X hangs while restoring window layout

    The software stops responding during startup when it begins to restore the window layout.  I have already deleted the layout folder in the Library without any benefit.
    I would appreciate any thoughts on how to resolve this issue.
    Is it possible that the problem may result from having both Final Cut Trial and Final Cut Pro as Applications? 
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Is the iMovie project in the Final Cut Projects folder? If it is, remove it from there before launching the application.

  • FCPX gets stuck on 0% when trying to export video

    Hi.
    Final Cut Pro will always get stuck at 0% when I try to export a video in the "Apple Devices" format. This just started happening recently. Is there any way I can get this to start working again?

    Are you editing with H.264 natively?  FCPX will freeze on a "bad frame" in an h.264 cut (usually at the very beginning of the clip.) If you are editing H.264 natively, you can usually get FCPX to behave if you right click on your Event clips and Transcode > Optimized media. You should also trim off the bad frames (they are typically solid green) in the storyline.

  • FCP X Locks up "restoring windows layout"

    I've only had this lovely package for 6 days and now it locks up "retoring windows layout" , yes indeed, it is looking more like Windows,can't wait for it to show up on my credit card in a couple of weeks.

    Just delete the Layouts folder and also this file 
    com.apple.FinalCut.plist
    it is located here  Computer/HD/Users/User_name/Library/Preferences
    My problem started after installing new AU audio plugins. The problem this is a temporary fix as will you need to repeat this procedure everytime you start FCP until you find the source of the problem and deal with it. Let me know.

  • Restoring window layout

    Hey guys so I'm a new Premiere pro user and I was playing around with it when all my panels got screwed up.  Does anyone know how I can restore or reset the whole panel layout???  Thanks.

  • Boot camp is getting stuck while windows support software

    I am using macbook air and currently trying to install windows 7 using bootcamp 5. The bar is stuck and is not progressing further no matter for how much long i keep it. Can anybody guide me on what might be wrong

    Thanks for the note. But neither link lists our MacBook Pro mid 2014.
    And how can I use Boot Camp Assistant to write the Windows.iso to USB-stick because it forces the download of support software (it is selected and grayed out).
    The following page recommends using BCA for the MBP mid 2014.
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204048
    I guess I could write the Windows.iso to USB using Windows (in fact I already did and it boots the MBP) and then try if the aforementioned software packages (which one?) contain necessary drivers for our MBP.
    But I'd rather do it the recommended way letting the Boot Camp Assistant do the dirty work.

  • Restoring window layout hanging.

    deleted layout folder.
    checked appnap.
    fcp launched in the background but useless.
    Lot's of work to do took me an hour to get this far.
    Anyone had the same issue?

    Most times trashing the Layouts folder fixes this problem.
    Also, repair permissions in Disk Utility and trash preferences with Preference Manager.
    If that doesn't do the job, see if it will launch from a new user. If it does not, I'd say it's time to reinstall.

  • "Restoring the window layout" hang - tried everything! HELP!

    I'm in Mavericks and am experiencing that "Restoring the Window Layout" hang that is kinda infamous around these parts.
    Except that in my case, I've done EVERYTHING that all the other links suggest. I have:
    *Trashed the Layouts folder (inside Users/myusername/Library/App Support/Final Cut Pro)
    *Trashed prefs (inside Users/myusername/Library/Preferences)
    *Followed the instructions to remove FCPX entirely (as found here: Final Cut Pro X 10.1: How to remove and reinstall Final Cut Pro X) *and* repeated the removal of Layouts and prefs as stated above.
    And the problem still persists.
    I am [attempting to run] the latest version (10.1.2). Purchased through the App Store so it is verified as the latest.
    I can in no way get FCPX to launch properly. Every time I try, it hangs during the launch on the "Restoring the Window Layout" launch screen. I do see my last-used project partially drawn behind it, but the window is all funky (things are in weird places).
    Please help...kinda desperate here...

    Thank you so much.
    I am certain I had trashed all the prefs mentioned in the other threads (there were about 3, in the Users/Prefs folder), but I tried your key command, got the prompt to completely trash all prefs, and it did indeed cure the issue. Thanks a ton!

  • My apple TV 3 is stuck in recovery. When connected to iTunes through microUSB, it gets stuck in "Preparing Apple TV for restore", then after what seems forever, it gives me an error 2003. What can be done?

    I tried to update my Apple TV today through iTunes using a microUSB. It gave me an error, I tried again and now it is stuck in recovery mode. If I plug it into the TV, it just shows that I have to connect it to iTunes (just the picture). I unplug everything, plug the microUSB and USB, plug the power, open iTunes, it shows, asks me to restore, I click Restore. It starts extracting the file, finishes, then gets stuck in "Preparing Apple TV for restore..." for what seems forever, when it finally times out, I get an error number 2003. I have tried different USB ports, no other USB device is connecte, I have tried restarting the PC (running windows 7, up to date, iTunes up to date as well), I have tried redownloading the IPSW and even using the shift+restore and manually selecting the .IPSW file, and to be honest, I give up! If anyone can help, I'd truly appreciate it. Thanks!
    PS: I also tried pressing menu+down for 6 seconds to restart, I tried pressing menu+play to restart, I tried pressing menu+down 6 secs and then menu+play 6 seconds for the so called DFU mode, nothing works, the Apple TV just restarts back to the "connect to itunes picture" along with the fast continuous white light flashing.
