Q: Freezing at the import screen?

Hi, all. Me again. Right now, I'm trying to import footage, and FCPX freezes at the import screen, then I have to force quit and open it again, only for it to freeze once again when I try to import footage. The program itself appears to be working okay, aside from that. I tried just clicking and dragging the video files, but that isn't working, either. Any suggestions on how to fix it, or alternative ways to import the media? Again, thank you all for your help! You guys are great!

    Don't think you can import a 64 GB file off that drive. Needs to be Mac OS formatted or exFAT. Can you get a MacOS drive and copy the file to it in the Finder?

    Okay, the problem solved itself. Even though it still freezes on the import screen, I can click and drag the clips to the browser now. Before I mark this as "Resolved," one more thing- there were clips that wouldn't import when I clicked and dragged. Not terribly important clips, but I'd still like to have them. If I put them in Wondershare Ultimate Video Converter, would that make them suitable for FCPX?

    Unless it's improved Wondershare is pretty lousy software. It's possible it will work, but it depends on the media and selecting the right output settings if they're available in the application.

    I haven't used the Video Converter much, but it works most of the time. I use the DVD Creator a lot, and I think it works great, at least enough to suit my needs. I'll try it, but if it doesn't work, I'll think of something else. In the meantime, I'll mark this as resolved. Thanks!
