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.

  • 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!

  • 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 "-" 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....

  • Final cut pro hd 4.5 doesn't work on my intel duo machine

    My final cut pro hd is about three years old. When I got a new mac pro, I ported everything including applications over.
    Not having used fcprohd for the last year, now, when I open the app in the intel machine, I get an error message asking for a later operating system, and an error message related to the video card. It works on my old power pc g4. Can I open and use final cut pro hd 4.5 on my intel duo processor machine, or do I need an upgrade? Is there an upgrade path to the newest version of fcpro which takes advantage of the duo intels?

    hey there bradsea,
    your version of FCP is not a Universal Binary. you'll need to upgrade to FCS2. there is an upgrade available if your version is not Academic. see this link:

  • Final cut pro x 10.1 doesn't work

    Please can you help me?
    Thank you

    Close it and re-open holding down the Option key.
    Choose another Library and open it.
    The current Library or something in there may be corrupted in some manner.

  • Every time I import an .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, the timeline doesn't get imported

    So I had exported an .fcpxml file from one machine, which i had to format. So, after formatting the machine, each time I import the .fcpxml file into Final Cut Pro X, The timeline remains empty

    Use MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5 (free software) to convert the media to something like ProRes 422, then import into FCP X.
    MPEG Streamclip can cope with many codecs.

  • 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.

  • The document "P1030596.MOV" could not be opened. Final Cut Pro cannot open files in the "QuickTime movie" format.  REALLY !

    ?

    How are you trying to open it? You are not supposed to open these files in FCP X by dragging them onto to the dock, or using "open with" in the Finder. That will lead to the aforementioned message.
    Instead, you drag them into an Event inside FCP X.
