July 23, 2007 at 4:28 pmWhat happens if you try to save manually? If that seems to work, check your autosave settings.
If it doesn’t work, you may an issue with the project, which may require reverting to a previous version. Let us know how you get on with the manual save.

July 23, 2007 at 9:09 pmI was wondering if your autosave location was valid, especially if the settings were ported from another machine. I know it’s a long shot, but the folder still exists – you can browse to it?
Usually this kind of error suggests project corruption, or if it happens during opening, a corrupted media/render file. On autosave, it sounds more like a ‘trash prefs’ kind of error. I would suggest saving the project under another name, and seeing if you can open it ok whilst fcp is still running. If so, trash prefs and the issue may well disappear. Oh, and repair those permissions too!
