    FCP 3 G4: Both viewer window and canvas have their title bars off screen so no dragging. Viewer is off the left edge by a third. Have tried all the appearance settings and rebooting…no luck. Help

    1. Try Adjusting the System Preferences “Monitors” on the Mac to a different size (resolution) so you can see the edges of the Viewer and Canvas.

    2. Try adjusting the SIZE of the Viewer and Canvas by dragging the lower right corner.

    3. Try Trashing the FCP Preferences.
    Click the following link for instructions.

    A great way to do this is to use “FCP Rescue” a free Apple Script that will Trash the Preferences for you (and restore nearly all of your user settings afterward).
    There are versions for FCPro & FCExpress.

    Dear Matte:

    Thanks for responding and it is fixed. I went to the window button and for the first time noticed that I could rearrange the windows on my desk top. Switched from standard to alternate and no problem. Saved the changes quit fcp rebooted and problem still solved
