  • motion project will not open

    I have created several graphics for different clips in different project and one of them is just not opening. I saved it last night and all seemed fine then. Redoing it requires about a half a days work so I’d rather not. This is what happens: I double click on the project file, it looks like it may open (icon bounces a little) but then nothing opens in Motion …no project window, no timeline etc.
    Anyone encounter a similar problem?

    I’m working with two other projects and so far they are opening /working fine but it has made me cautious (and nervous).

    Nothing changed system wise between last night and today

    Not sure what happened to your project, but I’d suggest creating a new empty project with the same dimensions, frame rate, and duration, then using the file browser to drag & drop your original project into the new one.

    I’ve run into the same problem a couple of times. What I did was go up to file>open>(name of project). The projects opened…
