How do I change a project's name?

In the manual I followed the instructions below but it doesn't work.  If I double click on a project name in the library, it just opens the project (in other words, the text of the name can not be edited).  If I single click on the name of the project, it doens't do anything.  The manual says I should be able to change the project name.  Also, when I duplicate a project, it doesn't give me the ability to enter a new name.  It just creates a new name and doesn't let me change it.  Please advise.  Thank you!
Rename a project
If the Project Library is not already open, click the Project Library button at the bottom-left corner of the Final Cut Pro main window.
Select a project, and click the project’s name to highlight it.
Type a new name in the project Name field, and press Return.
Depending on how you have the Project Library organized, the project’s position in the project list may change after you rename it.

Thank you.
This solved my problem.
Seems like sometimes it takes so long to render stuff in the background that you cant do much work till it is finished.

  • How do I change the itunes user name on my iphone?

    How do I change the itunes user name on my iphone? When I attempt to purchase an app or update the existing ones, the previous owner of this iphone has their information displayed and asks for the password as their user name is automatically prompted?

    The apps are tied to the account from which they were purchased.  If the apps were purchased from the previous owners account, then they would have to be updated from that account.  you should not have these apps anyway.  You need to buy your own.
    Read the manual.  it will tell you how to sign into your account to buy apps.

    I would suggest restoring as new.

  • How do I change the Home file name back to Home?

    Help! - How do I change the Home file name back to Home? My supplier changed it to Demo. I've tried pressing return, control click and Get Info but none gives access to change the name. Any ideas?

    The Home folder isn't named "Home." It is named for the user account it represents.
    Who is your "supplier?" Sounds like they're not terribly bright.
    Can you provide some details on why they "changed" it. Is this a brand new Mac? Were you having information transferred from another computer?
    It sounds like you just need to create a new account and get rid of "Demo."
    While logged into the "Demo" account, go to System Preferences in the Apple Menu.
    Click on Users & Groups
    If the padlock is locked, click on it and enter your password.
    Click the + button at the bottom of the list of users. This will create a new account. Fill in the information you'd like to use for your account. The account name is what will be used for the "Home" folder.
    Once created, select it from the list and check the box to "Allow user to administer this computer."
    You can then log out of "Demo" and log in as your new user. If there is nothing in the Demo account that you want, you can delete it from the Users & Groups System Pref.

    how do I change the .php file name for a page of my site? The only link to the page is the nav. button link for it in the global nav. The reason I need to change the file name is we want the breadcrumbing name to change and the breadcrumbing is linked to the file name.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Yes you can use one iCloud account between multiple devices.
    What do you mean 'change the iCloud user name'.

  • How do I change the artist/owner name for my podcast?

    How do I change the artist/owner name for my podcast?
    For eg, a podcast has 'The Ricky Gervais Podcast' and underneath 'Ricky Gervais'. I can't see where to change the latter. I can't change that through our podcast host Libsyn.
    Is it done through iTunes?
    Jack

    You can't change anything in iTunes: all infomation is carried in the feed, in this case in the 'itunes:author' tag. there will certainly be somewhere to enter it but if you can't find it you will need to contacts Libsyn; or quite possible Rob Walch, who works for them and posts here, will see this question.

    How do I change the iCloud account name?

    Do you mean the username? The part before the @ in your iCloud email address?
    If so, you can't change it. You can setup a completely new iCloud account under a different AppleID, or you can setup an email alias to your current iCloud account.
