How to update old projects/events FCPX 10.1.1?

So back when I updated FCPX to version 10.1, I updated most of my old projects and events to be consolidated into a new library. However, at the time I still left some of those projects/events in the "hidden" folder, so they were then placed in the "OLD FInal Cut Projects and Events" folder. I'm working locally on my computer because these are older, smaller projects.
Now, when I go into FCPX to try to update these old projects and events, it won't let me update them. When I go to locate into the "OLD Final Cut Projects and Events" folder, it is all greyed out and won't let me update anything. Does anyone know a way around this?? Seems counterintuitive that they've made the old projects/events obsolete, because now I need to work off them!
Specs: MBP 17 in. OSX 10.9.2, 2.53 ghz, 8GB RAM.

The app needs to see those projects/event in the right place and in folders named Final Cut Projects and Final Cut Events, respectively. Those two folders should be at the root level of an external (non boot) drive and/or in your Home Movies folder on your boot drive.
If they are correctly named and located, FCP will see them when you chose Update Projects and Events from the Fiue menu…choose locate then navigate to the drive/folder.

Final Cut Pro Update - Old Projects & Events

Hi, Final Cut updated my folder structure (making it super confusing) and now I have a folder with a purple icon that has 4 stars that says "Macintosh HD's Projects & Events" and also a "Macintosh HD Old Final Cut Projects & Events" folder.
The "new" one is 315GB and the old one is over 500GB. Between the two I am now very low on harddrive space.
My question.... Can I delete the "Old" folder of projects & events? When I look at the new folder it appears to have everything in it, but I just wanted to make sure before I delected 500GB of projects.
Thanks,
Chris

Don't delete anything until the update process is completed and you are happy with the results.
A thing called Hard Links has occured that really uses little drive space.
It may appear that there are TWO large files but it's not really the case.

How to update old Final Cut X projects to new one if they are one different hard drive

New Final Cut update only project that was on Macintosh HD, project on other hard drives don't recognized in new Final cut X, i can't load any project that isn't on Macintosh HD and i can't find option to update old project to new versio. Please help if anybody knows how to do that. Thanks!

Update near the bottom of the File menu. Select the external drive.

I cannot access Content Library in iMovie - Content Library doesn't show on the iMovie screen and is greyed out when accessed through "windows" tab at the top. Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question).

Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question). I haven't had this issue before, I have always used the content library on the screen but haven't used this for about a month. How can I make the Content Library available?

Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help

How to open old projects after updating FCPX

My old version of FCPX was not that old, but I recently updated it to 10.1.2 and it now has the libraries rather than events. After I clicked up update projects and events it has brought my old events into the libraries viewer, but I do not see any of my old projects. I was just wondering/hoping that I can still access all my old projects and where I need to go to import them back in. Many thanks for any help or advice.

No the projects were in the bottom right of fcpx and the events were in the top left. Yes I see now each of my hard drives is listed under 'libraries" and has all the events and import contents listed by name and then each one has a folder "updated projects" with what seems like all of my projects. So is there no way to associate the events and projects back together or at least under the same tab? Anyways, thanks for helping me find my projects, just seems like more of a hassle to get there: hard drive > Updated Projects > Project - rather than just pulling up the projects. I guess it's something to get used to. Is there any alternate way of organizing it or is this just the set standard now? Thanks again

HT6012 iMovie 10.0.6 not updating old projects after upgrade

I upgraded my kids iMac to Yosemite, and upgraded iMovie to the latest version. Existing events and projects weren't showing up, so I did the step outlined to update the projects and events from previous versions. My events are there, but the projects aren't. i've verified they are all there in the top level directory for Movies, just like the folder with the old "iMovie Events" but it doesn't seem to want to pull them in. Is there any other way to get my old projects into this new version of iMovie?

Hi I had the same issue and fixed it with deleting "UpdatedtoiMovie10" see step 4.
n the Finder, click the Go menu and choose Home.
Open the Movies folder.
Move the “iMovie Library” file to the Trash.
Note: If you have imported content or created projects with iMovie version 10.0, do not delete this file.
In the iMovie Projects and iMovie Events folders, you’ll find a file named “UpdatedtoiMovie10.” Move this file to the Trash from both folders.
Open iMovie.
Choose File > Update Projects and Events.

Trouble updating old project files...

I'm running into mulitple issues trying to update an old project for a client....
The previous project was created in MX2004 and while trying to import the project into 11.5, I'm hitting all kinds of walls.
1. Previous developed integrated INM Impressario into the project, and from my research, it seems that may have been discontinued.
2. When attempting to update the movie and casts, Director is bringing up error messages "Problem writing...." and "Having trouble saving..."
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I used the Impressario Xtra a while back with Director 11.5 without any major problems.
It seems likely that you trying to use version 3 when you need to use version 4.
You may need to remove the Impressario parts of project before updating and then redo them.

Updating old project - stuck on Livetype

I'm revising a project that is a couple years old. The last time I worked on it I was still using my Powerbook (stop chuckling! be nice!) I used Livetype for several titles. Now, on my MBP, livetype is not installed and is no longer part of the Final Cut Studio. How can I restore my Livetype titles?
I found Livetype app on my FCS1 disks, but I would need to install Rosetta to get this working on my MBP. Do i want to do this?
Thanks for your help.

LiveType in FCS 1 deposits its own .pkg file in Library/Receipts so it should update.
Software Update uses stored .pkg files to determine what updates are available.
The highest you can go is LiveType version 2.1.
I run a copy of FCS 1 with LiveType 2.1 on a G4 with Mac OS X 10.5.8.
Another respected member here recently posted that LiveType 2.1 also works without problems in Mac OS X 10.6. [See here|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2689835&tstart=0].

How to update old instances with values

Hi,
i am using albpm 5.7 version.
i have a requirement i need to update the oldinstances with updated data.
suppose i have added new external variable to process how it will update the old instances.
plz suggest how to solve this problem.
Regards,
Srinivas.

Hi,
The standard behaviour is that new instances of the process will use the most recent version of the process that has been deployed to the database. This allows you to deploy new versions of the processes without impacting on processes which are already in progress.
When the workflow engine determines what activity to run next in the process, the engine checks what the start date of the process instance was, so that it can check what version of the process was active at that time. If you update the start date for each running process, so that it reflects the date that you saved the most recent version of the flow, then the workflow engine will use the latest version instead of the version that it was running.
This is not supported. I would never suggest that you do this in a production environment - it does not make sense to be making frequent changes to the process in a production environment, since there is no supported mechanism for forcing existing flows to use the new definition. The engine is designed specifically to run the same version of the process for the duration of the process instance - what you want to do is to blow this out of the water completely. If you do change this, then all timing that is recorded against the activities becomes useless, and the other impact on the workflow process us something that you would need to consider incredibly carefully before deciding whether you want to take the risk.
HTH,
Matt

How to update old icon views?

I'm running Lion 10.7.2 and I have just acquired a large number of old .jpg files from an older Mac (probably running Tiger). I can read them fine, but in the Finder some (but not all) of the icon views are made up of very few pixels and won't enlarge properly - perhaps this problem predates even Tiger. Usually it's so bad that I have to guess at the content of the original picture. What I need is a way to remake the icon views for all the pictures in a folder, but so far I haven't found any way to do this apart from opening the files individually in say Graphic Converter and saving them again - this is obviously no good for several hundred or even several thousand pictures.
Can anyone suggest a solution?

Graphic Converter may be updating the preview icon as it saves. Doesn't it have some batch processing capability?
Yes, it does.
Select a group of problem icons. Right-click or Control-click one of the icons in the selected group. In the contextual menu that opens, go to "Services" - in that submenu, select "Create icon and preview". After a few seconds all of the icons should be showing properly.
This item apparently is added to Services by GraphicConverter.
You can also use Quick Look to see what's in a file without needing to actually open it. To use that, click an icon once, then press the Spacebar. The contents will be displayed in a popup window.
You can do that with a group of selected files, too. All will be made available for display in a common popup window, like a small slide show - use the arrows at the top of that popup window to cycle from one to the next.

Updating old projects problem

Dear All,
I've recently opened a project made on an older edition of iMovie, not an ancient one (Probably iMovie 5, I'm not at my mac right now). As I now have HD (6 I think, or whatever the most recent upgrade is) it said that it would convert it. It did so rather strangely in as much as there's now a black band over the bottom third of the screen. So it's kind of no good. I tried with a copy of another year old proiject and it did the same.
What are my options here? Can I reinstall iMovie 5 and have it on a seprate disc or something to open dpecific old problems? Or is there a way to get round this (I suspect familiar) fault?
Many thanks
Dan

Hi Tony
New problem to me. I would check up the version-mixes of:
- Mac OS + iMovie + MOST OF ALL QuickTime !!!
Mac OS X.3.9 + iMovie 5.0.2 + QT 6.5.2 = A very good mix
Mac OS X.4.8 + iM 6.0.3 + QT 7.1.3 = Also a working combination.
I would open the iMovie project (the icon) and check that the imported video
files are OK and then:
- delete iMovie pref file
- Run Repair Permissions (Apple Disk Util tool)
- Start a new iMovie project - close it
- and move the media files - manually into this - then restart and move in the
content in the trash-basket to the shelf or TimeLine.
Test and see if it is OK this way.
Yours Bengt W
