FCP suddenly thinks files are too new and won’t open
I am running FCP 6.0.5. I had been working on a project for quite some time, when suddenly one day I tried to open it and I got this error:
“This project is unreadable or maybe too new for this version if Final Cut.”
I have made no changes to my system that would make this make any sense. I went to my autosave files and from a certain save point on they all give me this same message. What’s going on FCP?
I have read past posts about this happening with earlier versions of FCP, but nothing with 6.0.5. I tried the old solution suggestions like opening the project on another comp, and I also tried opening the file after creating a new user profile. Both provided the same error.
Is there any solution?

Have you tried opening it without your media drive connected?
No real info here:

I have tried this in theory. I put the FCP file and tried to open it on three other computers (all mac laptops with fcp 6.0.5) with no attached drives. Always with the same result.
The Apple post is pretty frustrating.
