Wow it seems that I am not the only one having bad luck with FCP and rconnecting files.
I had and 2TB Iomega external HD and one day stopped showing up in my computer so I took the HD out of the box and put it on a Next Star Hard Drive Bock. With the file recuperation program Disk Drill I could recover all my files and put them on a 2TB G-Technology HD.
When I opened my Final Cut Pro 7.0.3 I could reconnect all the project that I was working on. I had to render the files again but all went right except that for some reason only the photos that I was using for the program can´t be reconnected. It seems that they appear Offline and the path is unspecified, or sometimes the path is my old HD. I click thesearch single location to look into my new HD cause the old one is dead and my computer wont register it, well I click and it doesnt allowed my to search for it. So I just locate them in the new HD and will allowed me to select it but then it would say there are 0 files found and 0 to connect…weird eh! In the cases where the path is my old HD, it appeared as blank files…
This is just frustraiting…
I tried to import again the pictures and it seems I have “0 access denied and 0 unknow”…. but the files are in my new hard drive…
Anyone has a clue what is going on? I am afraid to delete the pictures cause they are part of my cut in the timeline….HELP! haha
