FCPX Project Not Responding (Background Rendering)

Hello,

One of my projects in FCPX isn't able to function because of background rendering. It will open but, I've found that after a few seconds, it will either render very slowly and then halt rendering, or, if I start moving or clinking on various things, it freezes up completely. Any recommendations as to how to fix this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks kindly!

FCPx freezing when rendering after every tiny edit Hi all, hoping you can help me solve this one! Every once in a while, FCPx gets to a stage where it will render and freeze the whole application after every small edit I make. I'm talking about typing one letter, or moving a graphic up a few pixels. I feel like I was able to solve this ages ago, but I can't remember how I did it! Any ideas on what is causing this and what I can do to fix it? I've tried rebooting the app, updating it in the app store, rebooting and updating the iMac itself, deleting the generated library files... but no luck. TIA!!

And also the wallpaper also do not appear. I cannot think of a reason why this is happening. Do anyone have an idea of why this is happening and how to fix this issue.

file preview stuck on loading icon | does not preview or quick from finder Ever since I updated to the latest macOS (ventura 13.3 - 22E252), the preview and quick look feature for files in finder does not work. It keeps loading but never previews the file. However, the preview app does work, so when I fully open the file, it opens up correctly with it's designated app but the quick look feature and preview in finder does not. This seems to affect files of all size types small to large I've attached a screenshot for reference.
