  Posted by Eva Heijningen on July 24, 2012 at 8:34 pm

  hay!

  ii have a MAc, Macos X, and want to open an old project.in FCP 7.0.3. but by opening it says, when he imports a movie file:
  status error -128
  he cannot find the file: …(name of clip)av1
  is there anything i can do to open this file?
  i have thrown away my old preferences in FCP, and this problem does not appear with new projects anymore.
  he always makes this av1 fils when i export a movie.

  thanks a lot!!

  [Eva Heijningen] “he always makes this av1 fils when i export a movie.”
  This usually indicates that the files were saved to an Unnamed Folder.

  oh thanks! but why he cannot find it anymore? i cannot open them in quicktime.
  i dont remeber i have thrown it away.

  is it because he could not make the files longer then 10 minutes?

  thanks!
