    What does the little right leaning audio triangle with the triangle/exclamation point mean? How do I take corrective action.

    Nothing to worry about. The little “wifi signal” looking symbol behind the triangle means that the project has been shared before. The triangle means that it has been changed since the last share. It worried me at first too, turns out to be pretty handy.

    How to take “corrective” action? Export the project.

    It’s not a audio triangle, it’s a ‘broadcast/share’ icon meaning that you have uploaded it to a site like YouTube / Vimeo using the ‘Share’ menu.

    The exclamation mark means you have done edits on the sequence after you uploaded it, thus making the sequence differ from shared version. If you re-upload it, the exclamation mark will go away. It is just a sign to make you aware that the two versions are not alike.

    Hey cousin Jack! Fancy running in to you here…I googled exclamation in triangle icon meaning, and this thread was one of the results.

    Hope all is well with you and family. Kate Pultz

    Hi Kate, I spend most of my free time on Creative Cow… The rest of it on FCPX! Say hi to Pete for me.
