Unable to Close project

We are unable to close the project because it is created for plant xxxx that was never used and is wrong anyhow.
When attempting to close the Project xxxxx we get message stating that Purchase orders are open.
By listing all PO's applicable to the project (SAP trans ME2J) we get a list of approx 25 purchase orders, some of which have the lines deleted, some of which are open. Our problem is that the Purchase Orders are all set up for Plant "xxxx". and xxxx does not exist as a plant!! SAP will not allow us to dealt these PO's without changing the plant reference but we cannot because these parts are not set up in other plants!

Hi,
How did you save the Project with the Plant which doesnot exist ??
By the time your Project was created the Plant must have been operational in SAP & MM team might have removed it afterwards (if the system allowed)
is this right??
If so, then you can cross check with MM how to proceed to close / delete the PO line items.
regards

CProjects - Unable to close project

Hello,
I encounter a problem in cProjects 4:
I have a cancelled task which prevents me from closing the related project. In fact, when i try to close the project, i got a message telling me that this task as to be closed before...
Does anyone have any idea of how i can solve this ?
Any advice would be welcomed.
Thanks in advance for your help.
S. Talasi.

Hi Matthias,
First of all, thank you for your help.
Yes i meant "completed" but the problem is i'm not able to complete anything at all at levels higher than my task.
When i tried to complete the ITO above my TTO i got an error. As i thought i needed to complete all ITOs before beeing able to close my CTO , PPO, DPO, i thought i won't be able to close the project.
But, i realized that i can complete the CTO without changing the task or the item status which solved my problem.
Thanks again for your precious help,
Sébastien

Unable to open project file. even though I just saved it.

Hi,
I just started back to work on a little FCE 2 video project after a couple of months. When I went to load the file, it said "Unable to open project file". I thought, "hmmm, I'm a beginner, maybe I'm not opening the right file." So, I made a new project with a clip and save it. Then I tried to reopen it. No go. Same message.
So, something is wrong but I can't figure it out.
My preferences are set to save the file on an external hd. The file icon shows up but says that the FCE project file has 0KB. How can that be?
I look using spotlight for the file, thinking maybe the file was saved elsewhere. It doesn't show up.
Sorry if this subject has been treated before. I searched the forum and didn't find a problem that matched my circumstances. One that was close.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Doug

Thanks for your reply Kyriakos.
Yep, I've tried the files in the AutoSave Vault and still Unable to Open Project File.
Also tried deleting the FCE preference and cache file, fixing permissions and doing a save as instead of a straight save, as outlined in the article below:
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/good_apps_gonebad.html
It only has worked on one project which is the only file that opens now.
It's driving me nuts! I'm going to start doing some major jobs soon and can't have this happen. Maybe I'll try to reinstall FCE then if no luck it's time for a refund.
Would upgrading from FCE 1 to HD have anything to do with it?
Have you had any luck, Doug?

"unable to open project file" after importing layered Photoshop file

After spending a day of work, I saved and closed my 720p project. Today, I can't open it. I get a message saying: "Unable to open project file." Same thing happens with the auto-saved copy.
I have narrowed down the problem to this: I made a new 720p project file. Without doing any work, I import a single layered Photoshop file (.psd), then save and close the project. When I try to open it, I get the message again: "Unable to open project file."
Works fine at home. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
PPJ

I'm just now having the same problem, though I'm using FCE 3 . I can open older (NTSC) files. Just not new HD files that I have also blindly used alpha+Photoshop layers in. When I create a new HD file with a few HD clips in it and even use an audio track from the project I'm wanting to make, and use TIFF versions of the graphics and save it, it will open right up -- but something about these PS files.

"Unable to open project file" Error Message

I pulled an all-nighter (13 hours of editing) last night to create a critical project in FCE 3.5.1 on my Intel iMac running 10.4.11 then left this afternoon for a few hours and shut down my machine. Came back tonight and tried to open the project (which I saved on my Maxtor 1 TB external drive along with all of the scratch disk files). To my absolute panic, it won't open the file now with an error message that simply says, "Unable to open project file". HELP!!!! Anyone have any suggestions?!?!

In the past I found (and reported to Apple Feedback) the same bug Steve reports here, but I should recall that the problem:
- only appeared in PAL projects (probably not the case for kscritch) - never heard of it in NTSC
- was consistent in FCE 3.x, not so in FCE 4
I made tests importing .psd images with transparency into PAL projects using FCE 4, and I had various behaviours: sometimes the project worked, sometimes I couldn't open the project again (as in FCE 3), sometimes I had error messages with inconsistent behaviour (msg like "file error", but the project opened and file was there...), etc. so I decided to do without.
Now I only import .tif or .png images when I need transparency

"Unable to Open Project File" - error

Does anyone know how to resolve an "Unable to Open Project File" - error. I accidentally shut down my computer wrong, although Final Cut wasn't open.

Welcome to the forums.
The project file might have gotten corrupted. Look for the AUTOSAVE VAULT (typically in the DOCUMENTS>FINAL CUT PRO DOCUMENTS folder) and open the most recent version. Copy it to your main project folder if it works.
If not, then try trashing your prefs with FCP Rescue.

Error on imovie11: Unable to prepare project for publishing.

Error on imovie11: Unable to prepare project for publishing.
I badly need someone that is an extreme expert on Mac Pro and imovie11 and very good at troubleshooting. I have a critical project to get out and have serious problem. Mac store solutions did not work. Need a Pro that I can hire to come to my office in Raleigh NC.
Cleared the memory space on the drive, cleared the preferences.. critical problem. Love to find someone good to hire in the Raleigh NC area that come over and work on it.

Apple Store advice did not work.

Rocker-65 is correct, large, long and complex projects can have problems resulting in a Error-108. Sometimes cutting a Project up into pieces or just cutting into 2 can help. Easiest way to accomplish the cutting is to create a Duplicate Project. Then just cut Project 1 in half, saving the first part. Duplicate Project gets cut in half and contains the second part.
Then if you want to stitch them back together, export each project individually at 720p. Import each one BACK into a new Event Folder in iMovie and combine then in a new Project, export that.

Error message" The file may be damaged or corrupted -1610153464/ also unable to open projects in the background 26:: 142

Hello everyone,
I hope someone can help me.
I am using AE CC/Windows 7 on a Dell computer, 32 GB RAM, 64 bit op system, processors: Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU x5670 @ 2.93 Ghz 2.93 Ghz (2 processors).
So far I had worked on many projects with no problems and then a few weeks ago the project crashed non stop. The problem was overcome when I got rid of all MP3s and converted them to RAM. Again this was an issue I didn't have in the past and I don't recall changing anything.
Now it seems it is impossible for me to export/render out a project into a Quick time file or even AVI. If its quick time I get this message: After Effects unable to render error an output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted -1610153464 and if I am trying to export with AVI I get this message: AE unable to open projects in the background 26:: 142)
This is happening with different projects.
I read the forums and heard that the problem may be a Bug with quicktime and H.264? I never had a problem with it before but again when I try to export AVI I get this error message:
AE unable to open projects in the background
I have a feeling it is quick time related. I have uninstalled and reinstalled QT but still get the problem. It will open old QT files no problem. I tried to download a bug fix update as one post suggested but I think I have the latest which is why it didn't work.
This particular project has a couple of quick media H.264 files. Do I need to convert them? Are they the cause for all of this?
I am sorry I really tried to look for answers in the forums before contacting you here but I cannot find a reason for all this mess, which again only appeared a few weeks ago with no problems for months...if someone can point out an area where I can start looking, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

update: I converted all the H.264 footage which were in the project to WMV. And I was able to test export with AVI and it turne dout fine (like 10 seconds). However I still got the Error message: "After Effects unable to render error an output module failed, a filme may be corrupted or damaged. Error-1610153464 " when I tried to export H.264 QT..
I don't know what to do now, how can a problem which did not exist suddenly come up. How can I export a QT file? with AVI it will be massive!
Many thanks
Amanda

Unable to close the posting periods in MM

Hello
while using MMPV the system says that the date not current calender year. If I check OMSY the open year is 2002.I need to know that how you close the open periods of previous years.I am supposed to close all the periods one by one but how to close them for the year 2002.
I tried to initialise the periods as well but the system asks me to check OSS notes 487381 before initialisation.
Please guide me as I've read all the threads related to this error but still unable to close the periods.
Thanks & Regards
Ashish

Hi,
You need to close the periods one by one from 2002. There is no other way.
Go to OMSY check what is the current period,
e.g it is 02/2002.
then got MMPV,
Enter 03 and year as 2002 then execute, repeate till 12/2002,
then again start MMPV from 01/2003 to 12/2003. you have to perform this till current period of 2008.
Thanks

'Close Project' in Captivate 4 not working

Hi,
I have a number of projects where I set the preferences to close the project, and it works in some and not others.
I have a slide with a 'Done' button. When the user clicks it, it goes to another slide with nothing on it but the background and a text caption from the previous screen, and it is set for only one second. Some of these projects close perfectly; others delete the text caption and leave the project open.
Any ideas?
Thanks, as always.

Hmmm, it was intended to show you that you simply cannot rely on the different means of closing the window. Close Project and the Exit button are essentially the same action, no? Perhaps I should amend the note so it specifically also mentions the action of Close Project.
The thing is, unless you are presenting your Captivat using EXE format, you are seeing a very generic overall issue with closing a browser window. And closing browser windows is inherently fraught with issues and seldom works as one would expect. The only way to make it work as you want most of the time is to ensure you always open the window using JavaScript so it's a child window. When you open in this manner you have more control over the behavior of the child window and can usually close it at will.
Cheers... Rick

'Unable to open project File' Please help....

Help. Since yesterday, Final Cut Pro has been crashing every time I have tried to render something. I have used the FSC Maintenance Pack that has been recommended and ran Crash Analyser and Corrupt Clip Finder. No corrupt clips were found and the Crash Analyser fixed the problem for a while and I was able to work for a couple of hours. (prior to this I also removed some Motion files and that also temporarily stopped the crashing). I began working on my project again today, and the same thing started to happen. I kept having to turn everything off at the source until finally I gave up! Just before I turned it off I started running Autosave Cleaner but it seemed to freeze too so I Force Quit it. I have just turned it all back on again and to my horror, my project is not even opening. My other FCP projects are opening but not the one I am working on. I have no idea what to do. Final Cut opens and the message is 'Unable to open Project File'. I am so upset and really hope that someone out there can help.
I run 10.5.8, I have 10 GB memory. All my clips are imported as XDCAM EX 720p25 (original format MPEG HD) but I have been working in this project for weeks without a problem.
Thanks in advance
Gill

I don't know why it is set to the internal disk, but that is the default. That is not project related. It is system related (hence System Settings). So probably you started fcp one without the external disk attached. FCP forces you then to choose another scratch-, waveform-, thumbnail-, autosave location.
Probably you've set it all to the internal disk then.
Next time when the external disk was there again you might have only reset the scratch disk, but not your Autosave location... Just a thought.
That is, IMHO, the disadvantage of system orientated scratch disk settings...

Unable to open project file

Hello!
I'm in desperate need of a miracle here. I've already read over other solutions to this problem, but perhaps someone can come up with something I haven't. I'm using Final Cut Pro 7.0.3, and I finished a project last month that took a lot of editing work. After the project finished, I cleaned up my folders as usual, copying over all the media and the FCP project file over to my network external hard drive. I then made the horrific mistake of deleting my autosave files. Little did I know I'd want to access the project later, and instead of opening and having to reconnect my media, it just comes up with the error of "unable to open project file".
I've tried copying the project file I saved in November back to my local computer and opening it. I tried dismounting the network external hard drive and opening my local project file. I tried adding a .fcp to the end of the file's name. And I downloaded Pro Maintenance Tools in a hope that it could fix the corrupted file, it said it was fixed, but I still can't seem to open it. All my other FCP files are opening just fine.
I'm also interested if anyone knows whether my deleting everything FCP created except for the project file might be why it crashed?
Thank you in advance to anyone who even reads this hoping they can help.

Sorry, I'm out of ideas. Perhaps someone else with greater tech skills will chime in on this and be able to suggest a solution. Deleting or changing the location of the files you mentioned earlier in the thread can certainly complicate and add time to a new edit but should not have caused the problem you've encountered in getting the project file to open.
Good luck.

"Unable to open project file" message in final cut express 3.5.1

I have (well had now) a project with 3 video clips and multiple .psd files as stills. When the project contains just the 3 video clips and a couple of transitions I can save the project and quit Final Cut Express and relaunch FCE and when I try to re-open the same project, it opens just fine, without any problems and just the way I expected it to be. After editing the same project for a couple of hours and saving along the way (this has happened twice now and I don't think the length of time of editing matters) and adding multiple still images to the 3 video clips (this part is new in my working with FCE); I save and quit. When I return to open the same project I get the message "Unable to open project file" and click the OK button, which is my only option and I am given a new blank project. So where did my work go???

Thank you for the response, but it hasn't worked yet...
I read the link. I am working off my internal drive.
I re-named the Capture Scratch folder, and any Render folders and then launched FCE. I was presented with a window that reads "To preserve the integrity of the data used by Final Cut Express HD, it is necessary to ensure the existance of the following path(s)" The path in the box below is where my project file and support files are. My 3 options are Quit, Check again and Reset Scratch disk. I choose the Reset Scratch Disk button and it took me to the Scratch Disk window and I Set/Created a new folder and clicked Choose and then OK back at the Scratch Disk window and Continue at the initial window... the Reset Scratch disk button is now labeled Continue. I am given a new Untitled Project work space. I tried to open my project file and once again with the message "Unable to open project file".
Where did I go wrong???

"Unable to open project file." i need help! URGENT

before the problem...
my film project and all its files were in a WD external drive. i had some problems with soundtrack pro being too slow because the files were on an external drive, so i bought 2 Internal Seagate drives. i moved all my files to the internal drives, and i changed my scratch disk to my new drive.
i have done this procedure several times before, and i never faced this problem before!
after...
so i went on to launch my FCP project, and while loading i got this message "Unable to open project file."
how can i fix it?

nope!
but here is what i did:
i reformatted it, and moved the files again... and surprisingly, it worked!
computers have a mind of their own sometimes!
but now i have another problem... i opened soundtrack pro to work on the same project, but its very slow! it keeps freezing whenever i want to make any actions.
whats the problem? and how can i fix it?

Unable to open project file - from one 6.0.2 to another 6.0.3.

Hi
We're at a time-critical stage of finishing our movie, and we need to get the color-corrected sequence from the post-house to our studio so we can make some picture changes and get it back to them. They can open the project file just fine (it was created in 6.0.2, but they since updated their system to 6.0.3), and we have just updated to 6.0.3 also. Quicktime is 7.4.5 (which matches their version). However, they've FTP'd it to us, and we cannot open it here. FCP gives the error "Unable to open project file". It's not the "older version" message which I've seen before, it just ... fails to open it. Almost as if the file were corrupt. However, the post house can re-download the file from FTP and open it there, so this confuses me. I've also tried the file on a FCP 6.0 system (which I can't update because it's an Avid system locked to a certain version of Quicktime) and the same error message.
Would anyone be willing to test the file and see if they can, at least, open it?
Many thanks.
Matt

Have them zip the file... Project files via email often don't open if they aren't zipped..
