I have a 27 inch iMac with maverick os. my current version of iMovie (10.0.6) will not open older projects i created in iMovie 9.0.9. I can find the projects and they have a ".rcproject" file extension

Thank you GeeD. I'm still stymied.
I have moved the Event and Project Folders to the "top-layer of the drive" as the instructions state, right alongside the System Folder, Users Folder and Applications Folders.
When I open iMovie 10.0.8, the Events and Projects Folders are empty:
When I select File/Update Projects and Events, I get an alert box that says iMovie couldn't find any:
Not knowing exactly what is meant by the "top layer" in the instructions, I moved the Events and Project folders back inside the "Movies" folder where I found them (but then not where I would call the "top" layer, but rather "iMac/Users/Home/Movies/iMovieProjects". Then I tried to "Update Projects and Events" and received the same alert: "iMovie could not find any projects or events to update."
Then I tried to update iMovie 9.0 (iMovie '11 version 9.0 (1073)) to version 9.0.9 .
[As an aside, the nomenclature of iMovie drives me nuts. The latest version is 10.0.8, which us newer than iMovie '11.]
Back to the update of version 9.0 to 9.0.9.
Presumably because I have version 10.0.8 installed, I got this alert box:
So, I cannot update version 9.0
and I cannot "Update" the Events and Projects created in version 9.0.

Macbook numbers 2.1(436) will not open the project from Numbers APP on iPad 2.1(1129) . The error is "index.html is missing"

I updated the numbers APP on my iPad to 2.1(1129) and my Macbook numbers 2.1(436) will not open the project. The error is "index.html is missing".
I think I am having compatibility issues also with my numbers files but the symptom started last week. I have a numbers project/file that has been shared between my iPad and Macbook for several months so I would believe there is no compatability issue with the content. I updated the Numbers APP on my iPad to 2.1(1129) and my Macbook (numbers is current) on 2.1(436) will not open it. I used email the iTunes to transfer the project file. The error is "index.html is missing".
I used ftp to get both a previous file that will open and the new one that will not open onto a server at work and unzipped them. The file format is very different. Indeed the old one has an index.html and the new one has an index directory with a set of files. I know that you can not believe everything you read online but I did see a blurb that Numbers 3 does not need the index.html file but has no other specifics on the files format.
Am I a victim of the 2.1 verson on my iPad not being compatable with the 2.1 version on my Macbook?
Am I now forced to buy a new iWorks or Numbers 3 becasue I updated the iPad APP?
I wanted to find the answer before I purchased a new Numbers if that was not the problem.

Thank you for the insight that the new iPad 2.1 version requires Numbers3 BUT that is not a conclusion I would have jumped to being both are 2.1? Go figure.
You however I do not believe you are correct with the conclusion that I can get a Numbers upgrade. I am on OS X 10.6.8 so not only do I need a new OS, I need a new macbok to run it, according to the APP store it requires OS X 10.9 or greater.
I would like to have known that Numbers 2.1 iOS is not compatable with numbers 2.1 OS X and not taken the APP update.

Is it possible to open FCE projects in the latest version of FCPX?

Is it possible to open Final Cut Express 4 projects in the latest version of Final Cut Pro X (10.0.4)?
I have 18 projects on my hard drive, and I'm concecrned about their compaitibility in the future. Should I leave them as they are, and I'll be able to import them into Final Cut Pro X, or should I first convert them to Final Cut Pro 7 projects?

You can't open FCE projects in FCPX. If you can open a copy in FCP7 and export an XML file.

Will FCP recognize a PROJECT originated in FCE?

Stupid question...but I'm originating in fce -- pulling selects, etc....next week client is upgrading to fcp 6.o....
I assume that I'll be to open the fce project in fcp and have it be recognized, but I don't want to assume anything..
thoughts?

FCE projects should open in FCP 6.
However, once there they will be converted and you can't go back (easily).
If you want to you should make a copy of the project file to use with FCE.

Will FCP 5.04 projects open in FCS 3?

Thinking of buying FCS 3, but I want to be sure that I can open old projects from Final Cut 5.04. Anyone out there who can verify this?

Sure you can. You'll be informed on opening the project that it was created with an earlier version of FCP, asked if you want to create a copy of the project to update to the new version.
Just click OK - your original file won't be affected, but you might want to note its location and make sure you know where it is when and if you have to go back to it.

Robo HTML 9 will not open our project from Source Control after initial start.

We have a project in version control that we have been using forever, since 2003 or so and many versions of RH. Now that we have upgraded to 9, this project will open the first time in version control and work normally. Once you close the project and attempt to reopen from the starter screen, it opens just great, just not in version control. The files are still set to read only. I have done this several times and the only way i can work on my project in version control is to act like i am opening a project from scratch, then it needs to overwrite all of my local files with the server files. It would not be so bad but I am 3000 miles away from the server and 13 hops plus a slow firewall on the other end. While this has never been a problem in the past it is a big problem because it takes hours for all the files to download and overwrite my local files.
This only happens with RH9 and Version Control 3.1. RH8 works no problem. So, I don't know if this is a RH9 starter problem or a Source Control Problem. Maybe I will make a similar thread in the RH area. I'll wait to see if I get any useful hits from this one first.
It is very strange, I had RH9 open for several days because I was afraid to close the project for this reason and yesterday I published for the month so the heat is less right now but today, it opened with no source control. If I go to Source Control the only thing i can select is put project in source control. That is how it got into source control after converting to RH9.
We have another project that seems to open from version control normally but we can only save topics in HTML view. No useful answers to that topic after a week.
Got any ideas???
I have tried different folder names, different paths, etc.
Thanks,
dv

Ok, here is a wierd one, I used the add to version control icon in the menu bar, It already knew the path so I figured I'm the only one who has been editing these files for the past few days so I clicked add to version control. It added it. I closed and reopeded and still had the same files checked out. Closed, checked in all, then reopened and it is working in SourceControl. Strange that after opening from source control and closing that you need to reopen and tell it to put the project into source control. Obviously some flag is not getting set somewhere. This might help others having problems reopening source control files.

Premiere pro cc 2014 just abruptly shut down and now will not open my project please help...

I am trying to open a project file that just abruptly shut down - "serious error occurred" and now my project will not open at all. I have no idea what to do other than start over completely!! Multi cam mix with camera over 1 and 15 minutes of video - hoping my work is not lost forever.

Yep that is what I had to do...Thank you for your help

Premiere 8.0 Welcome Screen will load the editor, but will not open a project...

Hi all, this is a small issue but annoying to me... After the welcome screen comes up, I click on "Open Project" and then on a name of my project I would like to work with. After a few seconds, the welcome screen loads the project editor, but the screen stays green, no matter how long I wait, and the projcet I selected does not open. Then I have to go to Files->Open Project and load the project again. Shouldn't the project load automatically if I selected this option from a welcome screeen? I have the 8.0.1 update installed...

Thanks for you post Steve, you're right. But even if I select a specific project name
from the Open drop down menu, it still opens a blank screen. Can live with that, but they should fix
it... The same thing happens when you click on "New Project" in Welcoem Screen: blank screen opens and then you have to go to File -> New project. But if the editor is already open, the problem does not exist, it will do the right thing right away (i.e. open a project or start a new one from the Welcome Screen command)...

Confused on how to start (opening FCE project in Livetype)

Sorry to sound completely clueless, but I watched the wonderful video tutorials at Livetypecentral.com, but there's no mention of exporting and importing. Before I start my Livetype project, do I import my FCE project into LiveType, or vice versa? I want to make sure I do this correctly.

do I import my FCE project into LiveType, or vice
versa?
You will create your Live Type project and save it.
Then you can import it directly into FCE for use in
your final cut express project.
Doug
But I was planning on having the text positioned in different places around cropped images of the movie. If I don't have the FCE movie on while I'm working with Live Type, how will I know exactly where to put the Live Type text?

Will not open new project

I have had mainstage for a while and played with it just once a few months ago. But now is the time I actually need to put it to use for a show. But it is not working. the program opens. but it doesnt open a project. when i click to start a new one, nothing happens. when i click to open a one of the files in the mainstage folder, it doesnt even let me click on the files

well, i seem to be slowly finding out on my own what the problem s. I am pretty sure I just deleted the templates that mainstage uses to start a new project. That is even if mainstage NEEDS templates to create a new project. I had assumed earlier that it didnt, know I am assuming it does. either one could be wrong. if it does need a template, or even if it doesnt.... could someone please upload a blank standard template somewhere so I can use it to start out with. I know mainstage comes with them, but i probably deleted them on a very late night. If someone could help me out, that would be just great.

IMovie will not open a project with a .rcproject extension

The other night I was working on a project in iMovie. This morning, when I opened up iMovie, I did not see the project in the viewing window, and the project filename had a .rcproject extension in the iMovie projects folder. I cannot seem to get iMovie to open the file. I would greatly appreciate any help! Thanks.

BTW my client says that the info breakdown on the clips says:
'component y'Cbcr 10-bit'

Open FCExpress projects with FCP

Hi Mac friends,
I once had FCExpress. Not any more.
I´ve all FCExpress projects and all the media stored on an external FW hard drive.
Can I open this projects now with FCP and save them as new FCP Projects in order to use and preserve this works?
If so, what´s the proper way to do it?
Thank you very much.
L.

You can open FCE projects with FCP. You will not be able to open the updated projects from FCP on FCE.
Just do a "Save As..." to make a copy.

Premier Pro Project: Created on one External Hard Drive, Transferred to Different External Hard Drive, Project Will Not Open

Here is my problem listed in simple steps:
I created a project in Premier a couple years ago on a G-Raid mini external hard drive.
I backed up my project folder on a LaCie external hard drive.
The G-Raid mini hard drive died.
I cannot open my project from the LaCie drive.
When I attempt to open my project, I get 2 error messages:
First: "The scratch disks are write protected or unavailable. To open this project, the scratch disks will be set to your documents folder. Would you like to continue?"
I say "Yes"
Second: "This project contained a sequence that could not be opened. No sequence preview preset file or codec could be associated with this sequence type."
I say "OK", and that's the end.
My understanding is that the problem has to do with the fact that my original scratch disks were created on the G-Raid mini hard drive, and that Premier will not open my project because the code for my .prproj file directs Premier to a hard drive that is not connected. I have tried to edit the code in TextEdit, replacing the name of the old hard drive with the new one where the code reads:
<project.settings.lastknowngoodprojectpath>
This did not work. I also tried changing the name of my new hard drive to match what the "lastknowngoodprojectpath" reads as in the code, but that did not work either. I have searched high and low on the internet for someone who approaches the types of error messages I receive from the perspective of trying to open the project from a different hard drive, but I cannot find anyone who is specifically giving advice about this. Any suggestions?

I doubt that the error concerning the sequence preview preset file or codec has anything to do with the scratch disc location.
Here are two posts specific to the second error message:

Project will not open. blank screen after load

I have a pretty major issue, I just finished a rough cut of a feature film and I decided to change my hard drive drive letters so they were more organized. Now premiere pro 2014 (up to date version) will not open the project properly.
The file loads then it says looking for media then that goes away and it sits at a blank screen forever.
