  • unstable after upgrading Magic Bullet

    After upgrading to Magic Bullet Editors 2.0 FCP has become very unstable. Crashing just after launch or after a few edits. A dialogue box opens saying: AE EFFECTS Error: Unable to find plugin “Title 3D.bundle” Do you want to load plugin from another directory? I don’t own After Effects. Never have. I’ve never seen this before. It won’t go away. I’ve done the usual, trashed perfs, run Disk Utility. Any ideas? I can’t really edit anymore. Throw away Magic Bullet Editors? It’s not the worlds greatest software anyway. It cost me a $100. to donwload it. Now I wish I hadn’t. Why oh why, did I want to upgrade? Re-install FCP? (I upgraded from 4.5 to Final Cut Studio last month.) Was runing good until the MB thing. Thanks,
    Richard.

    g4, dual 1 gig, 1 gig ram, 10.4.8, FCP 5.1.2

    Yes. I downloaded the update from the web. I had some trouble installing it — over MB Editors V.1 It double installed all the effects. I threw everyting away. Tech support gave me a serial number that I used (not having to re-install V.1 after throwing away my firt attemt to install.) After this a few strange things happened. All my mail and bookmakers vanished from Netscape– maybe a coincidence? — then FCP started acting strange. Now crashing on opening all the time. And the box about AE EFFECTS. I click ‘NO’ I don’t want to look in another directory (because I can’t find ‘Title 3D.bundle’). The box just flicks on and off but won’t go away. Then after many attemps it will then, shortly, FCP will crash.

    I’m sorry… I didn’t clarify myself. The 2.1.1 update.

    Yes. 2.1.1. I think I’ve fix my problem for now. Un-installed FCP 5.1.2 and MB 2.1.1
    Re-installed FCP 5.1 and MB 2.1.1 Now things seem stable. I think I’ll wait awhile on FCP 5.1.2. Although I have to re-build one edit project. Saved under 5.1.2 can’t open in 5.1 Thanks for the help.
