    Hello Everyone,

    Any idea, what this could be?

    “This project is unreadable or may be to new for this version of Final Cut.”

    All project files of several projects deliver this message upon starting up FCP. From one day the another – we have not changed a thing within the system, nada.

    Any ideas? Many thanks.

    …and yes, I have read the other threads. Nothing gives.

    Completely in the dark here, as it’s not only one file, but many files that worked just fine until today…

    OK. I fixed the problem. None of the usual helped: Trashing prefs, caches, etc.

    I used Disk Utility to look at and “repair” my Raid on which the files are stored, and I used it to repair all the disk permissions on my hard drive.

    One of the two or both combined solved the problem… Very mysterious none the less.

    Thank You!
