Hi Shane, thanks for taking the time to try and help me. I figured out the issue even though I’m not sure why it was an issue. I’ll explain in case anyone else has a similar problem. For some reason when i deleted all files from the flash memory drive (on my computer) it did not like this. So i went back to my camera, deleted most of my old files and finally after about 10 times of deleting files one by one it finally worked. So I deleted all my files up until a week ago and it was back to normal. Why, I donno. FCP couldn’t seem to recognize my flash drive with older files after I had done some deleting on my computer. What did I learn? never delete files (AVC HD Files) from your computer rather you need to delete files from your Camera and then I suppose it’s good to reformat every once and a while. Thats what the manual says. Long story short I should really read the manual, watch the dvd and take a class in FCP. But for now I’m ok and thanks again.
Harry
