I really need help, I recently updated to Monterey, and also updated FCPX, but now my projects are full of the warning; Missing Plugin. As I didn't know I needed to, as I haven't had a problem before, I have not got backups of my libraries.
I did have a back up of FCPX 10.5.1, but as the libraries have been updated, now they won't open.
I cannot lose all my work, what do I do?!
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.0
If you're under deadline and need to get back up and running quickly, you could open a library backup that was created prior to being updated for FCP 10.6. By default, backups are stored in your ~/Movies/Final Cut Backups/ folder.
If you want to try to solve the missing plugin problem we'll need more info including screenshots showing the warning and an Etrecheck report from https://etrecheck.com Give Etrecheck Full Disk access in System Preferences->Security & Privacy->Privacy. When it finishes the scan, click Share Report, then click Copy Report. Click the "Additional text" icon at the bottom of your reply window here and paste. This report will let us see details that can help solve the issue.
Post some screenshots. There are different red warning thumbnails, that mean different things.
Where are you seeing the red warning? In the browser? In the timeline?
Select the clips that show the warning and open the Inspector. Post screenshots.
