My Final Cut Pro 10.6.1 has partially frozen, won't load and won't quit. I can't edit or watch anything and can't restart my macbook pro (2015) to give it a shake up. I'm on a deadline with these videos.
I'd love some help!
I know nothing of computers so the FCP help for dummies version is what I seek- or could it be a mac thing?
TIA

Press Command-Option-Escape, select Final Cut Pro and click "Force Quit". Does it work?
If everything is frozen, the final solution is to press and hold the power button for a few seconds, until your mac shuts off completely.
Start your mac again.
Try to start FCP and immediately press and hold Command and Option keys. A dialog appears. Click Delete Preferences.
The application will start in a default state, and open an "Untitled" library. Reopen the library you were working on, set the preferences the way you like them, and try again.

Thankyou Luis, this one worked!

I appreciate you
I'd say, first hold Cmd+Opt, then with your other hand, double-click the FCPX icon to launch it.
