  • unable to open project – “general error”

    Posted by Raggga on April 10, 2006 at 12:50 pm

    Hello!
    I have been working on a project in FCP 4 for months and I just upgradet to FCP 4.5 last week. After having worked on the project there for a few days I all of a sudden cannot open it. It starts loading and then tells me “general error”. This goes for all versions, older versions, copies and autosaved. I can still open other projects that were created in FCP4 and FCP 4.5 and it runs fine. So the problem seems to be this project and not the computer or FCP.

    Does anyone have a clue as to what this might be and what the solution to the problem is? Is it possible I

    Hi
    Propably there is a corrupted movie clip, audio file or still image somewhere. Use the Finder – Movie Player and Preview/Photoshop to check all the assets and see if something doesn’t open correctly.
