Q: Final Cut Pro wont launch anymore
I updated to the latest version of Final Cut Pro and now it wont launch. the window comes up and all I get is a spinning colourful wheel as a cursor and no way to operate the software.
Final Cut Pro X, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

Could be a problem within one or more of your Events or Projects.
Move your Events and Projects to new (temporary) folders so that FCP X doesn't find them on launch.
If it launches OK, then quit the app and move the Projects back one by one (re-launching each time). The media will be offline (red clips) but if it launches OK, quit again, and move the Events back one by one - re-launching each time you move an Event.
This should isolate the offending Event - you can then use a similar technique to track down the individual file.
