Error attempting to open project
When I try to open my final cut project I am getting an error message saying: “Waveform Cache file folder does not have read/write access. Please select a new folder in the system settings dialog or correct the problem on the disk.” With any project I try to open I am getting this error. The project that I am working on and originally received this error message for is saved on an external hard drive. The scratch disk is set for this external hard drive. I deleted all of the waveform cache file folders on my drive as an attempt to correct the issue. It didn’t work. Does any one have any insight on this issue?
Tried restarting the computer a few times as well…

I suggest googling an app called “preference manager” by digital rebellion, installing said app and removing your preferences. That way if your computer is looking somewhere other than you think for the Waveform it will stop and you can reset.
Beyond that, check your privileges on your drives to make sure you have read/write access to all of them. If you don’t reset them to give you said permission.
Hope this helps.

I tried to open one of my projects on FCP and I got the following info.
(The waveform cache files folder does not have read/write access.
Please select a new folder in the System Settings Dialog or correct the problem on disk. )
I went to the waveform folder and changed the 3 settings to all the access settings – “Read/Write.”
I also tried to trash the preference files and restart. Did not work.
Then I deleted all the waveform cache. Still it does not open.
I tried to open just the FCP program and I have the same problem.
Can someone please help me.
Thanks a lot,
