I can't find my projects! Not an updating issue.

Okay, so I have iMovie version 10.0.2 for the MacBook Pro and I have edited a video twice and then closed iMovie expecting for it to automatically save only to open iMovie again and not be able to find the project anywhere! Sorry if this is a stupid question but other people's questions only seem to be addressing updating problems, but I made these movies (uploaded the clips and editing them) completely after updating iMovie.
I took a screenshot of this **** and look! Under the "All Projects" tab, it says I have 6 items, but it isn't showing the 2 videos I already edited, and similarly, if I try and make a new video and try and name it the same as my disappeared project, it says that the name is already taken.
I have all of my projects under one folder if that helps.
Thanks!

Its generous to award me 10 points since I don't have a solution. If I had time it would be interesting to deliberately creare a project with the offending symbol in the name and go into the library and see how one might rescue it. (create project with legal name, copy project file, then rename project with illegal character and see what has changed in the project file)
Apple should at least document this bug and preferably prevent the use of apprently illegal project names.

Can't find any project/backup after updating to Mavericks

Hello,
I've updated to Mavericks and my project disappeared from FCP, I've found the folder in Documents\movies, with the name of my project but it appears there's no project library in there, there's a folder called backup with .fcproject file, but not able to restore.
Can someone give me some help on how I can restore the project?
Many Thanks
Pier

WWhat version of FCP? Please give the exact folder path for your project/s.

Did you by any chance move the Events and/or Projects folders? Are they on an exteranl hard drive and it is now not plugged in?

How do you save your photos in iPhoto and be able to find the photos when you are in different programs. When i try to find them I can only find the iPhotos not the individual photos.

Where can I find the release notes for iTunes 9.0.3?

Where can I find the release notes for iTunes 9.0.3?
You would think they would be available from the download link location.

I agree and find it odd, but then, there is only the most rudimentary and superficial 'notes' -
iTunes 9 also includes many other improvements, such as HE-AAC encoding and playback, more flexibility with Smart Playlists rules, simpler organization of your media files inside an iTunes Media folder, and more.
Nothing like "fixed bug with using..."

I upgraded to 10.8.2 but can't find my notes from before. The new notes are not in mail and I can add new notes but I can't find my old notes

I upgraded to 10.8.2 but can't find my Notes from before I upgraded. The new Notes are not in Mail and I can now add new Notes but I can't find my old Notes.

First, make sure iCloud is selected as the default account in the Notes settings on the iPad. If it is, sign out of iCloud and sign back in.

Hello Pseal
There are tow ways you can handle this. One is to copy the notes to your computer using iTunes to send them to Outlook. The other would be to create or have an iCloud account so that the notes are synced online and then all you have to do is sign back in to get them. The following article will assist with troubleshooting the issue.

I updated to yosemite os and was in the middle of a project with final cut pro 10. Now it says final cut pro is incompatible. How can I access my project and/or update final cut?

There is this offer of a trial version FC Pro X with 30 day runtime:
http://www.apple.com/final-cut-pro/trial/
Too bad you didn't have a complete backup that could run the previous OS X
and then you could resume using an earlier Final Cut Pro (10) or (7) since a
clone would have been a means toward that position.
http://www.apple.com/support/finalcutpro/
http://www.apple.com/support/pro-apps/
This appears to be another good reason to check out all the reasons why one
would want or need to upgrade a working OS X version, since these kinds of
events are known to happen as a direct result.
Sorry to not have an answer to this, other than try & use the Trial version...
Or see if someone at Apple sales/support can field your issue w/ an answer.
Good luck & happy computing!

I can't save Logic Projects/Files since updating to Lion. Help?!

I can't save Logic Projects/Files since updating to Lion. Help?!

I just had the same problem, after working on a project for a couple of hours and thinking it was saved, I go back to work on it some more and all the work I had done was not there. This is totally frustrating. I posted here as well and haven't had any responses. Good luck to you.

Can't find Imovie project on HD

I've been having a nightmare week trying to burn a DVD from Imovie.
I think a source of the problem may be that I cannot find the movie on the HD. I'm pretty sure that when it's playing in Imovie its playing from the external HD. I understand this would make it difficult to burn.
I copied the big folder (I can't find the .mov file in it!) to the HD and set the one that was in the external in the trash. Imovie said it couldn't open the file "cause it was in the trash.
I've been on the IDVD-4 thread for a few days now. I've done lots of clean-up and disc utilities repair.

The size of the iMovie project folder is not important for iDVD, only running time. On my 800MHz G4 iMac, it takes about 5 hours to compress a 60 minute DVD. So there must be something wrong with your Mac, iDVD or your iMovie project.

Update 10.1: Can't find my projects after updating

Hi, I updated all of my media/projects to 10.1 (By having it search the drive for old media/projects)--and I have access to my events/clips in the new FCPX library system (including from my external HD), but I can't find any of my old projects... it's as if they weren't updated to the Library system or something. Even when I try to manually locate and update the project files, final cut says that it cannot find any projects to update... meaning the projects are updated? Then why don't they show up in my library?
Thank you for any help you can offer

Lamothe - I seem to be getting closer on this: I created a new "Final Cut Events" and "Final Cut Projects" folders and placed just one corresponding folder in each (one project/event, respectively), then selected "update all" and FCPX did update THAT event. The trouble is NONE of the original files linked so now I am struggling through that process. For years now I have used Aperture to store and organize my project files (stills & video clips) but, at least at the moment, FCPX doesn't seem to want to look at Aperture and so I am having significant difficulty with relinking my files....but at least I'm getting closer. I may just transfer all the files from Aperture into the corresponding event or project folder and see if that helps....
Also, I don't think it's a good practice to have your media files on your main boot drive if in fact your "Macintosh HD" is the boot drive. FCPX will function much better with the addition of a second drive, either internal or external. Best of luck to you.
