Clip NOT appearing in viewer (even though on topmost timeline)

[Lawrence Eaton]

Adam,

I’ve just come across that same ‘charming’ issue, this morning. I’ve deleted the clips; imported them again and gone through all sorts of gymnastics but I can’t seem to get mine running as I expect it should. I’m taking the day off and going out to the woods to dig up grubs and pine seeds for this evening’s meal!

well, because I have no patience to wait for educated advice I went ahead searching for terminal posts about deleting plist from terminal. The terminal command basically got rid of all my .plist files (as well as documents, downloads etc). Unfortunately I no longer have the link ie this is not very helpful (; but the one take away is be careful when deleting things in the terminal, especially when basically deleting by name match (which is what I did…ouch)

[adam chesbrough] ” nor can I download again because apple thinks that I already have downloaded the program.”

FWIW… The solution to this, is to move FCPX out of the applications folder… stick it in a new folder somewhere else, just not in the applications folder. You should then be able to re-download and install it. If reinstalling it doesn’t work, you can try this to get rid of all traces of FCPX and then reinstall X.

I tried all of those things and they didn’t work. I think there is something wrong with the motherboard though, either way, im screwed

Can you move/open the project on your other computer? I assume they’re not both messed up right?

I found that if I opened the Project Browser and highlighted the project, went to the FILE menu and chose MOVE – moving the project and all reference events to a new drive, cured the issue I was experiencing.

that is disheartening since i edit from my RAID array, did you then reformat your working drive?

Adam,
I haven’t formatted anything as I moved the media to an external drive connected via firewire and it proved to work.
Formatting would have been my next move, though.
All the other projects on the drive that my problematic project was on all work correctly.

Sorry mate.

I would have trashed the event and project render files.

*Curses*! Dr Garchow provides the easiest solution, AGAIN! I’m feeling a right ole troglodyte now. Mind you the grubs and pine seeds tasted good too!
