I have actually figured out the problem….
With out going into a huge explanation of why…
What you have to do is go into your finder and change the file name through the info menu from “filename.mov” to “Filename” for some reason final cut does not like the extensions and even if you don’t see them in your browser the file still has the extension and is hiding it… The only way to change them I have found is manually doing it through the info window.
If anyone knows another easier fix… please let me know…
But for now I can reconnect bins and bins of clips… and that makes me a happy editor.
