So here’s the update… I completely uninstalled FCPX and BOTH versions of Motion (4 & 5). I re installed Motion 4 ONLY… still the same issue so this eliminated any issues with Motion 4 conflicting in any way with Motion 5 or FCPX.
I also toyed with the autosave, cache and saving a project by changing the Version to 3… none have fixed the issue.
Wondering what else to do.

SO the problem seems to be within Motion 4 only. All other FCS3 apps function just fine. Motion is up to date and the problem occurs regardless of what else is running.
The issue occurn no matter what the project is… new or pre-existing. I have not adjusted the autosave values or cache – I will try that but my feeling is that it may not help. I’ll report back on that.
The only recent update was to Final Cut X. I am running Motion 4 and 5, as well has Final Cut 7 and X. All have been installed for a while now with no issues. I cannot be sure if the Final Cut X update is the culprit however I will uninstall and see if that remedies the issue.
I’ll report back when I have tried these two things.

No thoughts on this?

OK. So do a Send To in FC7 after you do the install of FCX… let it do what it does and restart FC7… then it should work. Is that correct?

They haven’t come up with a fix for this yet?

Thanks Tom.
I can install on the SAME drive, just can’t run them at the same time… so what you’re saying is that there is no need to partition as long as you close each down before opening the other.
That’s what I’ll do. Thanks!

Yes. Understood. But what I’m asking is how do you boot to the desired drive or partition?
-
And no issues running either version at all?
-
… meaning one FCP on one drive and FCX on the other.

According to Apple they can be installed on the same computer but on either a partition or a separate hard drive that has the OS installed on it. Then you must boot to that partition at startup.
I’ve never booted to a different drive or partition before on a Mac so I’m wondering what that process is.
