Trash and Restore FCP 6 Preference Files

[Don Greening]

How about FCP Rescue? It’s a free program that will trash the FCP preference files for you and then restore them from a previous clean backup. Most FCP editors I know use it. You can find it here:

There are four files to trash when trying to trash the preferences.

workstation>Mac HD>Users>Workstation>Library>Preferences>com.apple.FinalCutPro.plist

workstation>Mac HD>Users>Workstation>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data>Final Cut Pro 6.0 Prefs

workstation>Mac HD>Users>Workstation>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data>Final Cut Pro Obj Cache

workstation>Mac HD>Users>Workstation>Library>Preferences>Final Cut Pro User Data>Final Cut Pro Prof Cache

When you delete these files and restart FCP each of these will be rebuilt.
