Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Attempting to update to 10.2.3 from 10.0.9

  • Attempting to update to 10.2.3 from 10.0.9

    Apologies for a question that has already been asked.

    ‘Choose a SAN location or folder containing Final Cut Projects and Events to update into new library.
    The current selection is not valid. Choose another SAN location or folder.’

    ‘Final Cut Pro could not find any projects or events to update.’

    I feel that I have tried everything:

    permissions checked
    preferences deleted
    reinstall FCPX
    different user login
    attempting to update from root, from movies, over the network, from different HDDS,
    from reformatted external Hdds,
    pointing to volume not folder

    Installing new FCPX and OSX to both Imac and macbook pro.

    – Everything is greyed out.

    Also, attempting to reverting back to 10.0.9; ( ie, 10.0.9, mavericks, seperate hdd : a dual FCPX system)
    Event Manager cannot see projects ( events, but not projects)

    I have years of work that I cannot access.

    Any advice would be ‘greatly’ appreciated.

    Isaac

    Hi,

    I have everything backed up – but nothing accessible.

    I can also access 10.0.9 but I cant read/access anything; (or at least nothing via event manager x).

    And yes unfortunately many events/projects have moved from their original/previous locations.

    (But I am still yet to understand why this process appears so fragile?)

    Any advice on how to advance from my current predicament would be great.

    I

    Where are your 10.0.9 Projects and Events located right now?
