Empty Motion Templates Folder in FCX 10.4.8

I'm a new user of FCX 10.4.8 I am trying to add and adjustment layer built in Motion into Users/username/Movies/Motion Templates/Titles folder of FCX, but the Motion Templates folder is empty but all my default titles are active in the app.

Am i supposed to create the Titles folder to drop my adjustment layer in or should it already be there? I'd really appreciate it if someone can enlighten me on how i can get this to work. Thanks

Or this one:

A little Applescript app which create all necessary folder for both user installs and global access installs.

Cause it is automated it's less likely you make some typos during the process ;-)

Hi Spherico,

I downloaded and installed, but i don't see it in the Applications folder, so i assume it's embedded where it's supposed to be.

How do i use it? I typed in "Titles" to a folder in Motion Templates and the Get Info shows that i still need to add the ".localized" extension to it.
