Final cut pro x can't find project anymore

Hello,
I cut a project yesterday. Now I can't open it anymore. My timeline is displayed in red like this:
I tried to rename the project, copy it on the hard drive and import it again - it's impossible on any Mac.
Thanks for your help.

So right now the files on my hard drive are not being displayed because I am copying of it to another hard drive.
Before I was able to connect some of the files, not every clip although it is saved on my hard drive and wasn't removed or renamed.
I am not using proxymedia.

  • Final Cut Pro X: Can't find project I was working on after closing the program

    Recently, I was working on a video in Final Cut, and I had to close it to do something. When I re-opened it, the project I was working on was not there. I have tried looking for folders storing the project, and have found nothing. Any suggestions?

    Are you sure you were working on a project, and not editing in one clip's own timeline? This is a pretty common mistake.

  • I have a problem with Final Cut Pro, I can't find my existing events and project anymore!

    Can give somebody me how I can solve this problem?

    Can we asssume that you upgraded to 10.1 and created those projects and events in an earlier version of FCP X?
    Or is there more to the story?

    There is no upgrade. It's a separate application.

  • Can I open Final Cut Pro X Archives, Events or Projects in iMovie?

    I did  a trial version of FInal Cut Pro X for a month and imported some events, did some archiving and a couple of projects. I don't think I'll end up buying FCP X - at least not for now as Imovie seems to cover my needs. Is there a way for me to move these archives, events and/or projects to iMovie?

    If you imported your media with transcoding or copy options, then you can recover those files from the Final Cut Events > EventName > Original Media folder (as long as they are not aliases to the originals.)  If you archived originals on Import you can retreive your media from the archive (looks like a film "can") by right-clicking and selecting Show Package Contents (you should see basically the same layout as is on your memory card in your camera.) Just go in and drag them out, then trash the archive. Other than that, the data saved in the Final Cut Projects folder is pretty useless for any other app.

  • Final Cut Pro 6 - Can't set Dissolve Transition longer than :00;25

    I'm new to FCP and I can't find any information on this issue. Is there a setting that would prevent me from extending the time for this transition?

  • Mac App store and Final Cut Pro X can a single Apple account purchase 3 separate copies of Final Cut X? Also how do we allow our editors to update FCPX, but not have access to the credit card?

    I work for a medium sized compand 400+ people. We have a 3 person video crew. How does our company start an Apple account that will allow us to purchase three separate copies of Final Cut Pro X, but not allow us access Credit Card info, but still allows us to update purchased software? Surely Apple cators to small businesses needing multiple lisences. I appreciate any feedback, thanks!

    I would assume that since your company has a video department, it probably also has an IT department.   Have them set up the needed account(s) and download from the App Store for you.
    You should also contact Apple about a mulit-seat licensing arrangement, but those usually involve 25 seats or more.
    Apple doesn't really cater to small businesses ... or any business group in particular.  They primarily cater to the consumer market.

  • Lost one of my Final Cut Pro Discs - Can support help me?

    Hi,
    Just got a new macbook pro and am installing a copy of Final Cut Studio 2 on it. (Previously had an old G5 where I installed studio)
    It's a registered, official copy of Final Cut Studio 2 (Academic) and I can't seem to find 2 of my discs. Is there anything support can do for me? Or am I screwed?

    Give Apple care a call and plead your case. Their number is included with the documentation that came with the software. Only they can send you replacement disks.
    If you purchased it from a store, having the information about where you purchased the software including a receipt would probably be useful. If you bought it used from a person, I'd say you have a much lower chance for relief.
    Good luck.

  • Final cut pro x refuses to open projects/events from external hard drive

    I have a Lacie Rugged 1TB USB3.0 hard drive which is paritioned. Previously I was a lways able to open and edit projects from the drive but now it refuses to open it.
    When I initially open Final Cut, it says 'reading .....' and it reads the projects and events as usual(from the hard drive) and then it opens the window, and for about 5 seconds all my events are open and listed, but then I just dissapears and it only reads from the internal hard drive. I have tried everything from restarting but I have not reintstalled the program.
    Help would be appreaciated, thanks

    There is 135GB available. Here are the screenshots, they appear in order of what happens.

  • Final cut pro fails to export my project

    Today i made a project on finalcut pro,when i tried to export it it failed showing this message
    What should i do?

    Are you using pirated version ?

  • Final cut pro.  Can't open from another drive.

    I added a new SSD drive to my computer so that I could take my FCP projects and speed up the rendering time, etc.  Now that I have it, I can't seem to bring the projects from my old drive to the new one.
    Any ideas?
    Dug

    I am running Mountain Lion V 10.8.2 on a MacbookPro 15", v8,2.
    I installed a 480G SSD into the main drive and took the old  Apple 750 drive and using a data doubler put it into the Optical drive. I then cloned the new drive.  I copied FCP across but didn't clone the projects, thinking that I would keep that information on the other drive and use it as needed.  When I first tried to boot up FCP from the SSD drive, it crashed.  I then booted up the FCP on the 750 drive and it booted no problem.  I shut it down and then tried booting again from the FCP on the SSD and it opened no problem. I figure that by booting on the 750 drive it added the copy protection to the FCP on the SSD drive.   I then used the Apple instructions on how to erase FCP from a drive.  I trashed the FCP on the 750 drive and then trashed the library files that were in the instructions.
    So now I can boot up the FCP from the SSD drive.  When I look for projects, it sees the projects on the 750 drive.  The projects are slightly shaded and when I try to click on them nothing happens.  If I try to boot up from the project file it opens and tells me to open the projects from within FCP.
    I am going to trash the FCP and re-install it from the apple store and see if that helps.  Any other ideas will be greatly appreciated.  I am trying to avoid starting over in my edits.
    Thanks,
    Dug

  • Final Cut Pro cannot save changes to projects or Events.

    Keep getting this stupid message, "The disk where your projects or Events are located may be full or unavailable, projects or Events may have moved, or permissions may have changed." It's the stupidest thing because I have 800 gb left on my drive. I haven't touched the Events after I imported all the footage last night. So frustrating because everytime I cut any footage, it'll work for a few clips, then the message will pop up, and it'll consequently wipe clean everything I just did. Any help??

    Hmm, for some reason all of a sudden it started working. I unplugged my hard drive, turned it off, deleted the old project, and started fresh. All of a sudden it's going smoothly. Crossing my fingers that it was just a freak accident. Really crossing my fingers....

  • HT4926 If I download Final Cut Pro X, can I move it or re-download it to a new machine later?

    If I download FCP X, can I move it to another machine later? I'm thinking of buying a new machine, but don't want to wait until then for the software.

    Yes, FCP X is completely self-contained and you can copy it onto a memory stick, SD card or hard drive and put it on any computers you own.
    It's worth keeping a copy on a DVD or SD card in case you ever "lose" your normal one as it's much quicker than downloading from the AppStore.

  • Final Cut Pro won't load my project.

    I have an external hard drive that I keep all my projects on and today I tried to load a project, but it won't load,
    I have attached a screenshot below, it has been stuck like this for the last 4 hours.

    Just to add a to Al's advice, working within the FCP X UI, try to copy one of the events (not the troublesome one) to the new library.  Let us know how you make out.

  • I am thinking of swapping to FInal Cut Pro X.  Can I get away with buying a 2010 Mac Pro to use?

    Would you recommend eight or twelve cores?  Is the speed that important?  How much memory?  I read so much conflicting information.  Sites that say anything over eight cores isn't worth it.  Or you should only use six outof the eight memory slots.  Or a single 3.33 quad core is better than 2.4 with eight cores.
    I will be editing 1920x1080 60p either 35Mbps MPEG4 or 28Mbps AVCHD.  Typically a single camera.  Sometimes a multi camera shot.
    I thought I would ask the Apple forum.  I have read the minimum requirements for the software.  But I know it is better to talk to people that actually use the product.

    For what your editing and with only a single avchd camera, I would go for fewer cores and a higher cpu.
    A 12 core would be overkill and would probably give you slower  performance in tasks not directly related to export rendering.
    A 4 core 3.33 quad core is absolutely faster than a 8 or even 12 core 2.4 in all tasks that don't use many cores. And Most tasks don't. But if given a choice, I prefer a six or eight core rather than a 4 core and would recommend enough memory and the highest cpu you could afford.
    16 gigs or more of memory should be good and remember the graphics card. FCP X really takes advantage of the newer OpenCL cards that were recently released for Mac from ATI and Nvidia.
