  • Update two Fcx10.09 projects to a specific Event in v10.1? (All events are already updated to 10.1)…

    In ‘Event Mgr’, there are no ‘old events’. They’ve been updated. Without having Fcx10.1 create a whole new library, is there a way to update and associate the 2 projects (below) with the event ‘Water Bodies’ (below)? If there a ‘best’ way to drag or copy to ‘Water Bodies’ within Fcx, I’d love to have that step by step… Thanks!

    Did you just try the “Update…” command? As long as you have an old FCP projects and FCP Events folder pair in your movies folder (looks like you do), it should see them. It’ll create a Library from which you can copy the projects into the current Library. Make sure and keep the old projects when prompted after the update just in case!

    I did do this ages ago, and I remember there being some relinking issues etc, but I think it eventually worked. Maybe someone else can chime in…

    Charlie is right. File > Update Projects and Events should find those two projects and create an untitled Event. Once in FCPX, just drag the projects to the Library that contains the media within the projects and the projects should update its links to the raw material. If not, its easy to relink.
