    I did for FCPX or do you mean the systems? Of so what software can I use?
    I did use Inteligence Rebelion for FCPX but for the systems preference don’t know what to
    do.
    thanks for your help.

    [Anthony Melendez] “When I create the new user, do mean to uninstall FCPX and then install it in the new user? Because yesterday I used my spouse user account and tried to run FCPX and it did open, but for some reason, it showed the harddisk but no the events or projects.”

    No you don’t need to uninstall, in fact it sounds like it is working on your spouses user account. The reason you events and projects are not showing up is they are held in your user account’s Movie folder which is not accessible on your wife’s account.

    I would first try to move your project and events to an external drive, and then it will be accessible from your wife’s, and other user accounts (see the FCP X user guide). Then when you load up FCP X on your wife’s account you can test if your projects open okay. Plus you could bring it to your friends Mac if you really run into trouble.

    I hope this works for you. Also you could call Apple, or run by the Apple store for this issue also.

    Hi guys. I installed a new hard drive with fresh OS and FCPX. Everything is great.
    Today I encountered the same problem again. When I try to copy a few clips, FCPX crashes again and again.
    Well, I started to troubleshoot this with patience.
    The conclusion, I noticed that when I selected various clips to copy and then paste, when there is a transition then FCPX crashes (I was using the Swap transition). I did the same selection with out selecting the transition, and viola! no crash.
    I think that clips with transition can not be copied.
    Thanks to you all that help me with this matter.
