    [Wayne Carey] “Either way, every time there is a crash, you can reset the permissions and a long list will show what has been fixed. “

    And does that fix the crashes?

    No.

    I can tell you that if you add a Motion project to your timeline, such as a simple lower third, it will crash about 90% of the time. I use Motion projects on the timeline because this was on the the big selling point of FCP6 if you remember. Besides, its keeps the drives cleaner and makes edit easier, except for the crashing.

    Oh I remember. I avoid that workflow all the time. I still “send to” motion but I uncheck the ’embed motion content’ box.

    Motion projects crashing FCP6 seemed to have been a major issue if I remember correctly.

    Yeah, I hear ya. It would be totally sweet if this worked as advertised, but for now, I keep them separate, although still use the send to command.
