Final cut pro wont open

i have used final cut pro alot, i used it rearlier today, now all the sudden it wont load up. I click on the icon, and it begins to load the box comes up that says final cut pro, but like halfway throught it loading up it just shuts down. How do i fix this? is there a way to restore programs or something like that? how would i reinstall it if i have to?

  • Help! Final Cut Pro wont Open, I tried to un install and re install but it still didnt work!

    I have a Final Cut Pro Express from 2006 and all was working fine untill i got an external hard drive and moved most of my projects over there. i tried moving them back to no avail and tried uninstalling and reinstalling final cut and it didnt work! Anyone have any advice on what I can do???

    I disagree an uninstall-install is going to do anything for you. "Won't work" and "to no avail" don't help us speculate on what's wrong with your system. Moving projects should not have caused any issues at all so what you probably really mean is that you moved your media or maybe moved your ssytem or the apps folder or you tried to move FCP. All really bad ideas.

  • The document "2147483647-11-06 06_00_00.FinalCutCopy" could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files of this type.

    The document “2147483647-11-06 06_00_00.FinalCutCopy” could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files of this type.
    I was importing media, and closed out of the media before stoping the media import. This is how the file saved on the hard drive.
    I need to get this file into a format that FCP can open. Is there a way to export a .FinalCutCopy file into a .mov file???
    Any insights would be VERY HELPFUL!

    I was able to figure it out. I renamed the file type to a .mov format and quicktime was able to open it. Then I saved that file format on the desktop, and imported in after I opened FCP. The file then imported and I was able to access the whole video clip I had! Thanks for your help!

  • HT4589 Final Cut Pro wont launch anymore

    I updated to the latest version of Final Cut Pro and now it wont launch.  the window comes up and all I get is a spinning colourful wheel as a cursor and no way to operate the software.

    Could be a problem within one or more of your Events or Projects.
    Move your Events and Projects to new (temporary) folders so that FCP X doesn't find them on launch.
    If it launches OK, then quit the app and move the Projects back one by one (re-launching each time). The media will be offline (red clips) but if it launches OK, quit again, and move the Events back one by one - re-launching each time you move an Event.
    This should isolate the offending Event - you can then use a similar technique to track down the individual file.

  • The document "-" could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files in the "package" format.

    Hello.    
    I have been trying to open a Final Cut Pro project but I keep getting this notification (title). The internet does not seem to have any solutions (maybe because of how simple it is).
    I have had in on an external hard drive for a while.
    I am using FCP 10.0.9
    Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks,
    Jimmy Fox

    It sounds like you're trying to open an FCP library. FCP files are never backwards compatible. The library structure was first created in version 10.1, so 10.0.9 will not open it. You'd need to find out which version created the library.

  • Can final cut pro x open a final cut pro 7 file?

    I editied a file on Final Cut Pro 7. I am looking to purchase Final Cut Pro X and I am wondering if I can open and edit my Final Cut Pro 7 project in Pro X?

    You have to use Intelligent Assistance's 7toX to be able to bring it to FCP. If you're talking about an FCP project. If you mean an exported file, most likely, but it depends on exactly what you exported to.

  • When booting up 10.7, Final Cut Pro automatically opens

    After updating to 10.7, I find my Mac automatically opens Final Cut Pro every time I power up. It's more annoying than anything, but I can't figure out why this is happening. Any suggestions?

    I suppose you mean 10.5.7, rather than 10.7...
    To get to your question.
    Strange that it happened, but have a look at Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login items.
    I suspect FCP to show there.
    Select FCP and press the '-' button. to stop FCP automatically startup at Login....

  • Itunes, Imovie, Final Cut   ALL WONT OPEN

    So i have recently deleted my quicktime, and then I tried to re-install.
    When i tried to re-install, It told me that quicktime was already on my computer so i went and searched for allll quicktime components i could find and trashed them, thinking i could completely remove it that way and then re-install.
    Now, my ITUNES, my IMOVIE and my FINAL CUT, well basically anything that uses video or audio wont open at all. It says it quit unexpectedly but it doesnt open in the first place.
    I SOMEHOW managed to install quicktime 7 but it wont open either. I guess i deleted something important, I just wish i knew what it was so i could try and restore it.
    PLEASE HELP ME!!!
    I need these applications for school, etc. HELP
    (Time Machine NOT set up)

    You now need to reinstall your entire operating system from the original install disks.
    You will also have to reinstall all Apple applications that install "add-on" QT components, as well as, any third-party components you may require. Depending on your specific method of re-installation, you may also have to purge PLIST files as well. If you really messed with the QT structure imbedded in the OS rather than simply deleting player apps and components that support the imbedded structure externally, I personally would back up all projects and data files I wanted to keep and then wipe and test the hard drive before performing a complete "clean" install. And, even if you only deleted the superficial apps and suppornt components, you will likely have to re-install the packages that would replace everything you've removed and stil may have to purge the PLIST files to get the replaced apps to open properly. Even then, you may come across some broken links to certain components owing to some apparent inconsistancies the in installation/re-installation and software upgrade work flow. (E.g., you may end up with the wrong or a non-functioning iMovie '08/'09 "AppleMPEG2Codec.component" being installed.) In short, as Klaus1 indicated, you may have opend a real "can of worms" from which it may be difficult to extricate yourself.

  • Final cut 7 wont open after final cut x install OR 3rd party software

    I had installed FC x a week ago,  did all the steps, even got FCP 7 to open... if I remember correctly.  I came back from a short week off and now I cannot get 7 to open.  It starts up loading the drivers and then I get the warning sign "Final cut quit unexpectedly"  and I can send the report or ignore etc.
    I'm not sure if this was an issue from final cut x or if it is because of a driver download I made from sony today. (link below)
    http://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/www/pro_hdv/fcp_plugin/
    Motion 4 opens,  DVD studio Pro opens, FC x opens.   I tried trashing the prefs and that didn't work
    Any other ideas?  Do I need to reinstall 7?
    Thanks for your help.

    Repair  permissions in Disk Utility. If FCP continues to crash…
    why not trash FCPX and see if FCP7 then launches?
    Either way, it won't take very long to download another copy of the new app.
    Also – Digital Rebellion's Pro Maintenance Tools has a Crash Analyzer. There is a trial version so you can evaluate.

  • Final Cut express wont open after Lepard Install

    I just installed Lepard to my mac and Final cut wont open...its gone dead, I find out the my version of FC express is 3.5.1, I have been having a few different things happen within the last 72 hours of the install,My dock sometimes doesnt respond,I need some adviser on the Final Cut issue, I have work in there and I need to access it...Help,
    itsonlyme...

    Every instance is different. There is no single fix for everyone.
    Start here:
    http://www.fcpbook.com/Video10.html
    Then come back and do this:
    Please give your full system specifications, what computer, what drives, what camera or deck, how everything's connected, what settings are on the media, what settings you're using in FCE, and finally what version of the software, of the OS, and of QT are you using?

  • Why won't my final cut pro 7 open anymore?

    The load screen starts up but after a certain piont it dissapears and says final cut quit unexpectedly.  I already tried to reinstall it but it still happens. Please help.

    Nope.
    Just download Preference Manager (Free) from Digital Rebellion at:
    http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    It will allow you to archive your current settings before you trash them, in case you want to return to them for some reason.
    Then trash your preferences and restart Final Cut.
    It will see there are no existing preference and will create a fresh set.
    Hopefully this will allow you to compete the launch.

  • Final Cut Pro X Opens But Doesn't Respond

    I am running FCPX 10.0.9 on OS X Mavericks (10.9). FCPX worked without issue on my computer and it was running Mavericks. Now, out of the blue, it will open but not respond. Once the loading screen goes away, nothing happens. FCPX is not responding and there is no light under the icon in the dock. I'm not sure why this is happening. Any help is appreciated.

    I don't beleve I trashed my prefferences. I did just now realise when I went to move the project that FCPX hangs on, I realised it was on an externail hard drive that was completly full. I deleted around 40 GB of data on that drive and FCPX works.
