I/O error--can't open FCP file

I have a Final Cut Pro project with video spread onto a few external hard drives. One of those drives seems to have gotten corrupted. I do have most of the materials backed up on another external drive (the corruption became apparent during a backup). My problem is that when I now try to open my FCP project I get an “I/O error” and cannot open.
I can open other projects.
Any suggestions on what I might try? Do I change the paths to my backup drive? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks

There are a couple of possibilities:
1. Your project file is corrupt.
2. Media linked to that project file has become corrupt.
Have you attempted to open an autosave of this particular project?

Kindly suggest where cud be the issue and how do I proceed.

Hi,
- I think firstly, you need to ensure following files is restored or available as per location
1. instance.properties file
2. sdm_jstartup.properties file
and restart instance
- check if any profile changes

Error Can't open project file

Was working fine on a project. Closed the project tried to access it again got this error message.
Error Cant open project file: {0}
The project is there when I check in windows explorer. Can anyone help? I have a back up so I am able to continue working but I am concerned has to how this may have happened.
Regards
Betty

Hi Betty,
The application bean might have gotten saved inadvertantly with an unnoticed / unintended change after you copied the code from it. Its a slim chance but could have just happened. If by chance it was so, then the IDE would have had difficulty in recognizing the file as a result of which that error was thrown.
In case you are sure the file was not modified could you please provide us the steps to reproduce the problem.

Can't open FCP file (version 5.1.1)

I have a FCP file file that will not open. The movie file included 1) imported pictures 2) movie footage, 3) several sound tracks (two from Cds and about 5 sound track files from SoundTrak Pro for effects); the movie file has a duration of about 5 minutes. I’ve tried the following (in this order):
1. Checked the autosave vault. While I can recover the file, I’ve lost 14 hours of editing so I would like to find a better solution.
2. Moved the Soundtrack files so they are no longer referenceable (moved these to another folder); that didn’t work.
3. Repaired disk permission s (only had two differences) so I don’t think this was the problem; that didn’t work.
4. Moved the render files so they are no longer referenceable; that didn’t work.
5. Moved the media files offline; that didn’t work.
I am using FCP 5.1.1 on OS X Version 10.4.6, on a Dual 2 Ghz Power PC G5, 2 GB DDR SDRAM Memory. I started the project on FCP 5.1.1 I didn’t create the FCP file in an earlier version. I also haven’t moved the files from one disk to another (I created the movie file on my primary drive). I have checked the support postings but can’t find something with exactly the same situation (one of the above items seems to have worked for most people) but I’ve tried these and the FCP file will not open. I would really appreciate your help on this! Thanks.
Power Mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I got FCP Rescue and opened the application. There isn't much to this application except "Trash" as I understand it. So, I clicked on Trash. After the third try of reopening the FCP file, it OPENED! Yea, which is great! So, that is good. Thank you for the suggestion; that was helpful!
While I can see the file and can export it to Quicktime; for some reason the movie file will only play about 5 seconds and then stop/start/stop/start, etc. I am using "Safe RT", Playback Video Quality is set to "Low", and Frame rate is "low". I've tried various combinations of these including Dynamic; the movie won't play for more than two-five seconds which makes it very difficult to edit.
I have 40 gigabytes remaining on my hard drive; could this be causing a playback problem? The playback worked fine before I couldn't open the FCP file. For some reason after I opened the file it won't playback smoothly.

Can FCE Open FCP files?

My friend and I will soon be collaborating on a project. I have Final Cut Express 3.0 and he will be getting Final Cut Studio. I know he'll be able to open my files, but will I be able to open his?

Not directly. FCE3 is based on a version of FCP that's earlier than the current version of FCP. Final Cut projects are not backwards compatible. You might be able to use XML to get around this. Exporting it from FCP, brining the XML file into FCE and then after you're done opening the FCE file in FCP. This does work in theory, but I don't think it's a good plan for a workflow. There is too much that can go wrong in the process of exporting and constantly upgrading projects, especially when you throw in the mix of things you can do in FCP that will be lost because they can't be translated into an FCE project.

Can't open fcp file-HELP!!!

after working on a tracksheet with no problems for a month it suddenly won't open - at about 27% open, it stops loading and i get general error (41) -
any ideas? HELP!!!!!!! - I've GOT to get in this thing!
thx!

Its some sort of corruption. You can try trashing your renders.
You can also try saving a copy of your project to your desktop and unmount your drive(s) which contain your media and scratch discs (renders folder, capture scratch, etc...)
Then try to open your copy of the project file. It will probably open and tell you the files arfe offline. Mount your drive(s) and reconnect your files one at a time or in small groups. If its a corrupt media you should get the error when you reconnect it.

Error message: "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg files"

I'm using DW 8, and I have installed the 8.0.2 update. I'm
having trouble inserting certain JPG images into a site. I get an
error message pop-up that states "Dreamweaver can't open .jpg
files". It will allow me to insert some jpg files, but not all of
them. I've tried drag & drop and going through the Insert menu.
The files are not large at all. Doesn't appear to be any problem
with png's or gif's. It's incredibly frustrating. Anyone have any
suggestions? TIA.

> why was i taught that all my web images need
> to be in 72dpi if it doesn't really matter?
most people suggest 72 because it was an old standard with
the early
macintosh DTP programs. For web use it's easier to
standardize on it because
when you make an image, you have to put ~some~ number in the
resolution box
and it might as well be 72 as any other number. It simplifies
moving image
files around in different applications if they are all the
same resolution.
For display in a browser, these will all have the same file
size and display
size in a web page:
600x600 pixels at 1dpi
600x600 pixels at 72dpi
600x600 pixels at 6000dpi
It's when they are used in other applications or when a
direct url like
/photos/1.jpg is printed out that they may display in the
resolution, not
the pixel dimension.
I came across a page once where the designer always saved his
images with a
resolution of 6000 dpi or some other odd number because he
thought that if
people dragged the image off the page to save it- most of
them wouldn't be
able to resize it. or some other idiot reason maybe.

Error while opening pdf in reader in windows 8:Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format

I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??

This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
PDF XChange (my favorite)
Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
Adobe (the bloated monster)
Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
ABBYY
And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
Here is what I've learned for my situation
The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files.

Some users can't open Excel files. It is trying to open it in Internet Explorer "An error has occurred. Please try again."

I have some users in my company that can't open Excel files from any document libraries on SharePoint 2010. The receive the error message "An error occurred. Please try again."  We don't currently use the Excel calculations services. When
a user opens an excel file they are prompted to either Read Only or Edit.
This affects less than 5 people in a large company. They have the Full Control permissions and have been able to open the files previously. There has been no changes made to the server either. I can't find anything that points to this in the
event viewer.
It doesn't matter if which computer that they try to open this up from either.   All computers are Windows 7 Professional with IE 9 and Office 2010 x64.
I can't find anything that points specifically to this exact error. None of the excel files contain pivot tables.    This one has me stumped.

I would make sure no one has open on machine / locked on machine (Would assume you checked this, but wanted to add)
Also would have assumed you restarted the machines (:))
Make sure the file security did not change (check to ensure no one changed the sercuity of the excel)
Make sure the version of excel is the same (Changing from 2010 back to 2007 affects the file, etc.. on convert) that no one converted and saved thus causing error in file.
Can they open other excel files?
It sounds like the excel file it self has changed if you cannot see issue in SharePoint logs.
If it is all SharePoint excel files - try deleting one persons access and readding them to see if that helps.
SharePoint has issues ;)

Can't open Indesign file. Error message says I need to upgrade plug-ins?

I created a business card for my husband from my indesign 5.5 version. I haven't upgraded my version since creating the file and for some reason I can't open the file. I get the error message 'Cannot open "Business Card - Ryan.indd". Please upgrade your plug-ins to their latest versions, or upgrade to the latest version of Adobe InDesign.'
When I look at the business card file with finder it says it was created with InDesign 5.5. When I view my InDesign application through my finder applications it says I have InDesign 5.5 so I'm not sure why this error message is saying to upgrade my version of InDesign.

I wish I had a dollar for every person who claimed there was no way a file was saved in a later version only to find out it was.
If you post a link to it someone here will save it back for you.

Click Start, right-click Computer, click
Properties, and then click Advanced system settings.
On the Advanced tab, click Environment Variables.
Locate and select the __COMPAT_LAYER variable, and then click Edit.
Set the value of the __COMPAT_LAYER variable to EnableThemes. Or, delete the __COMPAT_LAYER variable.
