  • FCP 7 Doesn’t want to launch anymore

    Hi All,

    Supposed to output project for client in am and suddenly FCP 7 (on 10.8.5) will not launch/open. I tried resetting pram/repairing permissions so far. Read that I should try to trash fcp preferences but can’t find them anywhere (not in library folder, not in user folder).

    Would definitely appreciate any thoughts as to next steps. Thanks very much.

    download PREFERENCE MANAGER from DigitalRebellion.com. It’s free. Trashing prefs is a one button thing with that.

    Thanks Shane-I’ll give it a try shortly.

    FYI, I tried launching FCP 7 again, and it wasn’t loading. When I clicked on another screen (not sure what the new mac spaces thingy is called) but FCP loaded fine off another screen (same monitor). Strange??? Think I’ll not touch anything until I finish the project.
