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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    You should take your question to the Final Cut Studio forum. This is FCPX.

    will final cut pro X 10.0.8  still be available for purchase after the new final cut pro release for mavericks/new macpro in december?

    10.0.8 is no longer available, except in the trial version. The current sale version is 10.0.9. Apple has never sold older versions of their software, only the current version. That's not going to change in the near future.

    In QT, if you open the Inspector, what is the format? Post a screen shot of the info.
    Did you try one of the Video Share presets?
    If you've got high quality material to work with, uploading to YT or another video service should produce good results. They will re-encode whatever you give them.  So as s long as you give them a sufficiently high quality file to start – and assuming it's h.264 – you should be good.

  • I have a newer MacBook Pro and I am trying to download my Final Cut Pro 7 Studio 2 on it. Is that possible or does the new MacBook Pro not support anything other than Final Cut Pro X?

    As Tom said the FCS forum is the better place to post the question.
    Here is Apple's best practices doc for installing both on the same system.
    BTW, FCP7 is part of the FCS 3 suite of apps.

  • Premiere Pro CS 6.exe stays active after closing the program

    I am experiencing a problem with Premiere Pro CS 6.03. When I close the program, the second monitor would not return to desktop (it stays a black screen). The premiere pro cs.exe is active in taskmanager. Only after I end the exe process would the second monitor return to desktop. I am not using any third party hardware, only Adobe player for second monitor out. This problem occurs often, but not every time I use Premiere. I have never experienced this problem in Premiere Pro CS 5.03, which is still installed on the same PC. The technical Spec is: Intel 3930K, 32 GB RAM, GTX 560, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I have tried to toggle between different NVidia drivers, but with no effect.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I've had the process stay open after closing the program as well, but only on one of my two machines.  For me, the 6.0.3 update seemed to correct the issue.  Not sure why it's still happening in your case.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Final Cut Pro X 10.0.8. How to automatically move clips to the left?

    I've upgraded to Final Cut Pro X 10.0.8, and there are differences from the earlier ones. How do I set my timeline to automatically move the clips along to the left when I delete a clip in the middle of my timeline?
    I can't find an answer to this question anywhere?

    The backward delete key should do that, The foorward delete key will insert a gap clip.

  • 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.
