  No Templates or Brushes

  Posted by Joel Thiessen on March 24, 2011 at 8:25 pm

  I seem to be missing all of my Motion Templates and all but two of my Brush Styles (Airbrush & Solid).
  What can I do to get these back?!
  Thanks!

  You probably need to re-install the Motion Content Disc 1 & 2.

  And let me guess, the two that are there are basic and airbrush. Yeah, those don’t need any of the default media.

  Those items normally live (unless you installed them somewhere else on install) at: /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Studio/Motion

  If they used to be there, motion isn’t pointing to them any more – for whatever reason (it’s forgotten it’s default or it’s been deleted). It’s under yoru prefs

  If they’ve never been there, they weren’t installed.

  Check the Library tab, content and see there – you should have about 1400+ pieces of media in your library.

  Best,
