Q: Where did the items inside the "Shared Media" Folders within each project prior to Final Cut Pro 10.1 go?

Just wondering where these files were moved after updating to 10.1.

In FCPX prior to 10.1, shared files could be accessed either by going to the project folder in finder and looking in the shared items folder of the Final Cut Projects Folder, or selecting a Project within Final Cut Pro and looking in the Inspector under shared settings.

Under shared settings all updated projects show no shared files and when looking inside the package contents of the new Final Cut Library which was created in finder my shared file folder is also empty.

Is it still processing?

Literally just updated about an hour ago?

Its about 50gb of shared m4v files.

I did keep my "Old Final Cut Projects" folders and events so I can still access them through there but would like to see them before deleting the old files.

    I just created a project and shared a file to apple TV filetype, and could not find the shared movie either. I appears to be in the library: if you rightclick on '[hard disk name] projects and events.fcpbundle' in the Movies folder and then select something like 'display package contents' (not sure about the exact name, because I have a non-English language set), then you will see your project. Within the project you will find a map 'Shared items'.
