Issue Launching Final Cut Pro - Missing Disks Window....?

Can anyone help me with this issue? Just loaded FCP on my Intel Mac, and I keep getting this pop up window named " Missing Disks" that is telling me "To preserve the integrity of the data used by FCP HD, it is necessary to ensure the existence of the following path(s):
'36th Chamber/Users/Macluva99/Documents/Final Cut Pro Documents' is missing.
And it gives me the option to (1) Quit the program (2) Check again or...(3) Reset scratch Disk (then another window pops up and I have no clue what to do with.
Any ideas...?
Thanks,
[email protected]

This is actually version 4.5 for FCP HD, but I had loaded it on this machine a month ago and it was working and it wasn't giving me this pop up window/issue. That was when I was still on Tiger I believe. Would it be because im also on Leopard now as well?

  • Importing issues with Final Cut Pro X. Green flash and twitches while play back

    Hello, I'm having some importing issues with Final Cut Pro X and I can't find any solution whatsoever. Perhaps my importing settings are wrong?
    Anyways, I've done a lot of recordings on eye TV and HD PVR with some videos that are about 3 hours long. I exported them into H.264 files, which turns them into mpeg-4 files with AAC audio. Then I import them into final cut pro X and I notice it takes a long time for them to render the videos and I notice that there are some green screens and twitches while I play through the video.
    Here is a screenshot of the green screen that I'm talking about:

    Could it be my 2 video graphics card that is causing this kind of issues? Or is there any solution to fix this?
    In the past, I've used iMovie 09 and it worked out perfectly. However, the new iMovie 11 is terrible because it automatically optimzie my 3 hour long videos into making the importing process to (144 hours long to import). Is there any way to get iMovie 09 back or am I stuck on dealing with this Final Cut Pro X issues?

  • Is my issue with Final Cut Pro or my Macbook pro?

    I'm going to try to be as thorough as possible in explaining my situation because I can't figure this problem out and it's exhausting me. I have an early 2011 macbook pro with the 2.2 ghz processor. I upgraded to 16gb of ram almost a year ago. I've been using Final Cut Pro 7 on this computer for several years now without issue and have made no setting changes that would prompt my problems. A few months ago my battery decided to stop holding a charge and now just registers 0%. Around the same time, while editing a short video my computer began behaving like it was overheating. It would crash, restart, crash and then restart again. After I did a disk and permissions repair it began to work normally again and I haven't had any more crashing issues. Around this period of time I began noticing that when my computer turns on it doesn't register the correct time and date. Given a few moments it corrects itself, but for some strange reason it was doing that every time.
    Anyway, around that time I tried to upgrade to Mavericks and experienced an issue during installation because my hard drive was apparently damaged in some way and the installation couldn't be completed. I restored my previous OS and tried to carry on as I was with the damaged hard drive for as long as I could. I was still able to do everything I needed on the computer. I could still edit videos with Final Cut. I could still browse the internet. I could still stream Netflix.
    About a month ago Final Cut stopped working. I could open the program, start a new project and import media files, but when I dragged them into the timeline, they just stuttered (audio would play but video would lag and then jump several frames then lag and jump frames). At the time I assumed this was because my hard drive finally gave up, but I was still able to do other functions like browse the internet and stream basketball games with nba league pass (granted they weren't crisp hd - on a side note, netflix was also behaving oddly. when I would browse through my list, it wouldn't stop scrolling when I moved the mouse away.) so I assumed the hard drive was my issue.
    I just replaced my hard drive with an ssd (crucial m500) and upgraded to mavericks (10.9.1) and now I am having the same issues. Netflix behaves fine. Basketball games stream fine. My battery is still dead (obviously that wasn't going to change). I get the wrong date and time for a minute, but I'm thinking that's battery related now. But Final Cut still lags to the point where I can't use it. Video clips also won't render. I thought this might be an issue with the Final Cut program so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, but it still did the same thing. Assuming I hadn't correctly/completely uninstalled it, I downloaded HitFilm 2 (an editing program that had a free download promotion at the time), figuring using a different program, if i could edit video with it, then my issue is with Final Cut and not my computer. Unfortunaely, I'm having the same lagging issues with HitFilm as I was with Final Cut.
    I'm at a loss as to what the problem is. Sorry if this was a rambling post, but I wanted to get as much of the background out there as possible, should it provides anyone with a clue as to what is the issue here. Does anyone have any idea what could be at fault here? I'm stumped.

  • Launching Final cut Pro X

    I used Final Cut Pro X for a while.  Since yesterday, I can't launched it correctly.  It's started, opened few windows. And freezed saying :  LOADING COMPRESSOR SUPPORT.  I can't go further.   I did a repair on the hard disk.  I trashed every thing and downloaded a new version.  It's still doing the same thing when I try to start it.  Have a solution???

    Did you trash your preferences? Trashing the app won't do much. Use Preference Manager.
    Did you install any new applications? New software? Make any other system changes?

  • Help serious Audio rendering issues within final cut pro

    Hello
    I have some serious audio issues I am using Final cut 6.05. Here is my problem I am putting a AUParametricEq filter on my audio due wind noise etc. Anyway when i play it back on the time line it plays fine no problems but as soon final cut renders the file say for mastering to tape. at some point at the audio the audio goes all haywire, popping sounds or the audio just repeats it self at one frame or i can here audio from other parts of the timeline. And it just happened before i never had the issue. Is it the update. Hope anybody can help as I need to master about 6 projects to tape to clean my harddrives and all 6 projects have the same issue.

    Are your audio files AIFF 48K 16 bit?
    In regard to trashing preferences you can download Jon's Prefence manager at this site

  • 10-bit issues in Final Cut Pro

    Can anyone point me to any Apple support articles relating to the issues / problems of using 10-bit uncompressed sequence setting for online editing in Final Cut Pro ?
    I know Final CUt Pro is broken for 10-bit in 4.5, 4.5HD and on but I would like to know exactly which filters are broken for 10-bit and which not etc.
    I have tried searches to no avail, just getting forum discussions that highlight the topic but do not have much in the way of solid info.

    You are like a lot of Avid people I know...hold on to the old old hardware because it still works. Only it doesn't. Or it does with a workaround, in this case. But I know soooooo many companies that are still using Avid 7.5 on Beige Powermacs, or Avid Express, or Meridians.
    Why are you insisting on 10-bit? DV50 is 8-bit, so you are gaining nothing by going to 10bit uncompressed. Even going 8-bit uncompressed doesn't really help anything. I tell people to either use DV50 or uncompressed 8-bit if they want their graphics to look good when they edit DV. DV50 is a good solid codec. No need to convert.
    If you go back to Avid, I hope it is one of the newer ones...Avid 3.5 or 4.0. Adrenaline killed it for me, made me jump to FCP without hesitation. And PC Adrenalines...the worse. But newer boxes are starting to win me over.
    But then that is new equipment...more expensive equipment than FCP.

    Upgraded the OS? This is usually an installation issue. There is an easy fix. Do a forum search for ProKit.

  • Launching Final Cut Pro

    The computer which I'm working on w/ Final Cut Pro has multiple users. Someone has altered the settings so that Final Cut refuses to launch. I believe it's running the latest OS and version of Final Cut.
    How do I remedy this? Thanks.

    If you are working on a machine with multiple users, it may be a good idea to set up multiple accounts and restrict administrative privileges to one person. First thing to try however is deleting fcp preferences. Do a search here for fcprescue (a utility that eases the deleting of preferences process). Your assumption that your running the latest OS and version of FC lead me to believe that your experience with the Mac and FCP are limited. To determine the version of the OS that's running, go to the apple menu and choose about this mac. The find out the version of fcp running, find the fcp application in the application folder on your startup drive, select it and hit command-I. Post back with this info and details of your hardware for more help.

  • Exporting issues with Final Cut Pro X

    I have been working on the project for a few weeks now and it's been working fine till today, Im trying to export several clips from the same footage that was divided into seperate project files and every time I try to share it gives me an error message with a frame number. I've seen other people are having the same issue but none of their solutions worked - the frame number is different everytime, I dissabled all effects and I tried copying and pasting the sequince into a new project file but that didn't work either.

    i do not have a bad frames within my original file or project and a new user account was also not necessary,
    but deactivation of APP NAPP was at least 2 times a solution. under mavericks i could export for the first time with no error

  • Final cut pro missing files

    Hi. I'm new to this. I recently 'killed' my reconditioned mac and was lucky that the hard drive still had my final cut pro project intact.
    I bought a brand new OS X and was advised to use a 'caddy' to plug the old hard drive into the new computer. I thought I had transferred all the files from the FCP project, but clearly it hadn't transferred everything. I am quite afraid I'll lose everything or hurt the original project but I desperately want to be independant of the hard drive and just use my new computer. How do I make sure all the relevant files are on my lap top?
    Thanks in advance for any advice. (Its my first go at FCP and I am not very computer literate!

    You need Final Cut Projects, Final Cut Events, and if applicable, Final Cut Camera Archives.  If you are using these only on your internal system drive, they should go in your Movies folder.  But it is strongly advisable to put them on an external Firewire 800 drive instead.  If you go with the external route, then the above mentioned folders should go at the root (top) level of your external drive as opposed to in the Movies folder.  The system will run faster and your videos will render quicker.  Plus you will typically have a lot more free space to work with on an external drive than on the smaller ones that usually come with the systems.  With the render files that FCP X produces you are defintely going to need the extra space. Then you should simply make a backup of the external from time to time with yet another external.  This will take away most of your worries   Best wishes.
