    Hey, I just wanted to follow up with you, and tell you that I fixed the problem when I called Apple. I’m going to explain it in detail, though for those who may have the same problem. I had somehow gone into my video file in the timeline and disabled it, thus resulting in a black screen, whereas if I disabled it in the editor, it would have just grayed the clip out. What I did to fix it was right-click on the file in the Event Browser, click “Open In Timeline” and re-enable the clip there. It fixed my problem completely! Thanks Jeff, for you help, though!

    I’ve also tried re-linking and it was unsuccessful. I just came up with this idea, though. In theory, this makes sense to me: what if I went into an old fcpx backup where the file is not showing up as black and replaced it with the one that is showing up as black on the recent backup? Would my clips then be referencing that fixed file? Also, an additional thing to note is that only the first half of the clip is black, which is even weirder to me.

    I’m not sure what you mean by “re-link media’ nor do I know which preferences to reset?

    I’ve tried deleting render files and then re-rendering, but still no luck 🙁

    Forgive me if this sounds dumb, but by deleting the render files, wouldn’t that delete the media and/or project?
    In theory, I assume it would just delete the render files but keep the project intact, and would just have to simply render all of it again,
