There are restoring a lost project in Final Cut Pro x?

Hello guys,
I have a problem with my FCPX project. Can anyone help me?
I searched some forums, but no one with a similar problem.
I was working on two projects (each in a different event) and the program was getting slow. So I created new folders within "Movies" in the finder: "Final Cut Events - Hidden" and "Final Cut Projects - Hidden", to put projects and events that were not being used and leave open only what was currently working.
I did this and for some time I managed to edit. When I returned to another project (putting it back into your source folder), the final cut did not open anymore. And is not opening any project.
Will I lost all the work of a month?
If I lost, I'm restoring the project?
Thank you for your attention.
Luana.

Lost Project in Final Cut Pro X

I lost my entire project in FCP X. I edited for a couple of days and was very irritated by not being able to save it (though I checked on the internet and as everybody is talking about it I trusted that FCP X would save automatically). When I restarted the computer and programme there was only my imported files left in the Event Library (with their very current names, strangely enough), but the entire timeline and project was empty.
I went to Movies- FCP X- Project and opened the current version, but it's the same. They are just empty frames and I can find nothing of what I edited.
I know that many complained about losing bits and pieces with FCP X, but I wonder if there is a solution for losing the entire project!
Also, I'm using a free trial version but read that there are no limitations so I don't think this is the reason. Please reply if you have any idea what could be going on! Thank you.

Get "Preference Manager" from Digital Rebellion, it's free, and use it to delete the FCP X preferences.
If that doens't fix it, move the FCP X application from the Applications folder to the trash and download it again.

I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?

Hello everyone
I've recently messed up my Mac OS X Lion by deleting Aperture, but I need to get my data out of the computer. I've tried to repair it using DU, but it said I needed to backup all my data and reinstall the OS. How do I backup my data to an external drive?
And by the way, I've got an important project in Final Cut Pro X. Is there any way I can back it up (including fxs and positions of the clip) ?
Hope you guys can help me!

You need to back up 2 folders, Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects which by default are located on your Movies Folder. You can always check by clicking on a clip inside Fianl Cut X and selecting Show in Finder in the contextual menu for the selected clip.

Command to Export project as Final Cut Pro XML from jsx script

Hi All,
Can somebody get me the command to export the project as final cut pro xml from jsx script.
I was using the extension builder script earlier for cs6 panel development, so we were using pjct.exportFinalCutProXML("pathname");
Now I am working for panel in Premiere CC so working on HTML 5 panel and qe dom scripting(.jsx).
In some jsx examples i got there is script to export sequence as final cut pro xml but cannot get the code for project export.
project.activeSequence.exportAsFinalCutProXML(entire_out_path);
Also please let me know if there are any kind of reference available about all the functions and properties in the pe dom scripting for premiere pro cc.
I am using premiere pro cc 7.1, windows 7, Eclipse Kepler.
Thanks in advance,
Anoop NR

When you reimport the exported project XML to FCP, do you get the full project or just the single bin/sequence? If you get the full project then it sounds like you need Premiere help, not FCP help ... have you tried asking on the Adobe forums? If you only get the single bin/sequence then it seems you might have inadvertently selected those prior to creating the project export. Try making sure that your FCP Browser window is active and that you have not selected anything within that window prior to using the File > Export > XML command. If that still causes issue then you might try using an earlier FCP XML version.
Hope it helps

I need to transfr a project from final cut pro 6

I need to transfr a project from final cut pro 6 to an editor with final cut pro 5.
will they have the problem of not being able to open the file? any suggestions out there?

Welcome to the forum!
FCP project files are NOT backward compatible with older versions. But you can export an XML file of your FCP 6 project, then use the XML file to build a new project in FCP 5. Check the manual for details.

Lost media for Final cut Pro X

I finished a project on final Cut Pro X and started on a new one downloading new footage. I ran out of Disk space so I started to delete events from my iphoto library. (All is backed up) I also deleted events and files that where being used in my previous project. When I go to open the project they have obviously dissapeared and I am confronted with 2 different looking boxes. One, with the usual 'Missing File' (Mainly photo's I think) with the red background icon, but also a lot of video which is replaced with a blue box with the linear look of a video and audio segment. As I say I have all the footage backed up and have re uploaded back into iphoto. I dont know how to make the program reconnect with the files I have reinstalled.

Hi MC Hilton,
I found the following information that may be helpful in relinking lost media to a Final Cut Pro X project:

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!

Mavericks' iMovie won't export project to Final Cut Pro

Upon updating to Mavericks and its accompanying versions of iLife, I do not see where the option in iMovie to open a project in Final Cut Pro X is.
Likewise, attempting to import an iMovie project from Final Cut only creates a blank project with the iMovie project name and then crashes Final Cut Pro.
Is there any way to regain this feature?

If you are on iMovie 10.0.2, use FILE/SEND MOVIE TO FINAL CUT PRO. If you are not on 10.0.2, let us know what you are on.
This sends the iMovie to FCPX 10.1. If you are not on FCPX 10.1, it will not work.
I recently tried this with one of my iMovie 10 projects and it all worked perfectly. Nothing changed in Final Cut Pro X (unlike when using the previous method with iMovie '11). All clips, titles, transitions, audio tracks, edit points and so forth were intact. I was then able to add further embellishments in FCP X. It's a delight using FCP X, given its flexibility and greatly expanded feature set compared to iMovie 10.

Is there a way to run Motion and Final Cut Pro on Separate Machines?

Is there a way to run Motion and Final Cut Pro from the same Final Cut Studio license on separate machines? We hadn't realised when we bought Final Cut Studio that it wouldn't allow this. Our editor doesn't use motion, and while I mainly use After Effects on our motion graphics machine, I was wanting to try using motion for some particle effects. Unfortunately, it won't let me open it while Final Cut is running on our editor's machine. I can understand not letting two copies of same application run under the same serial number at the same time, but it would be nice to be able to use both programs that we own concurrently. At very least it would be good to warn you that this isn't possible in the product description, not in some fine print license agreement once you have already bought the software.
-Matt

I do not know of any software, in any platform that can operate from the same license over a network simultaneously.This is the exact reason for the existence of Volume Licensing. If for example a project ran in each one of the included applications from different sources that were not an active network, I doubt you would have a problem.Like, doing a project at work and geting the outcome with the Powerbook at home...Sorta!

I can't get my projects in Final Cut Pro X to work in 1080p. One turned out to be 1080p but I did everything the same as the ones that did not. ***? Any ideas?

I can't get my projects in Final Cut Pro X to work in 1080p. One turned out to be 1080p by "accident" but I did everything the same as the ones that did not. Same camera/settings (shot in 60i). I didn't really care cause I had to get some stuff done, but now I know I "can" dp them in HD but can't figure why the one went up to YT in full HD (and made a copy in my movies folder. That one project acted totally different than the other 5 but I didn't change anything. Can't get it to work again. ***? Any ideas?

No problem! If you're worried about more complicated edits (which in all honesty, should work no matter how many clips you select or how many effects are attached to them), you can always compound a clip first, and then copy it over after if you're afraid of lots of track clutter getting in the way. Not sure if they would break apart afterwards though if you wanted them to.

I cant export my Project in Final Cut Pro 10.0

Hello, I have been trying to export in any possible way my 1 minute project with Final Cut Pro 10.0 and have several problems, among those problems as soon as I click under: SHARE / APPLE DEVICES and/or MEDIA BROWSER / PUBLISH ---> There is the following problem that I dont have any idea:
The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)
in the past days it was working great and now not even EXPORT MOVIE is Working at all, doesnt even show the pop out window to continue to export it...
DOES ANY BODY HAS ANY CLUES ON HOW TO SOLVE IT??
In running Mavericks, is it maybe that the issue?

I forgot to say thanks, though had to delete Final Cut Pro 10.0 and then download the 10.0.9, now works smooth even though Mavericks screwed up the System Performance some times.

How do i import imovie project into final cut pro

I movie 08 is seriously lacking titles and transitions, so I want to spruce up my project in final cut pro, but I do not know how to get the project into final cut pro
thanks for your help

YES!
Apple seems to be talking down to users with much of the workflow and nomenclature in the iLife Apps - it's almost insulting.
But I'm as old as the hills too - grumping has become one of my favorite pass times.
And while I'm at it:
I still can't figure out why there is a "GO" item in the menu of OSX. WTH is THAT ? And why can't users change it's contents? Very PC. It would be more tolerable if we could use it like the OLD Apple Menu back in OS9. The Dock is cute GUI eye candy but I'd like the option of "docking" items in a menu too.
I'll shut up now before I get in trouble...

Are you using Mavericks. If so you should update FCPX

Failed to send my project in final cut pro to compressor

I tried to send my project in final cut pro to compressor but when I go to file then see send to compressor it will not let me click on "send to compressor". I checked but none of my files are missing or anything and the project is only 4 minutes long. This has happened to me once before and it completely crashed my computer. I had to start out fresh which was a horrible process. CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP?! (URGENT)What might I have done wrong that this happens? In the picture below, this happens and I have no idea why that is.

I suspect it's a FCP X issue rather than a Compressor issue.
Will FCP export a master file? Make a short section with the range tool and find out.
Tri reseting the zoo's preferences. Hold down the option and command keys when you launch to reset.

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?
