Can not render or export file

My OS is Ventura 13.4.1. and I am running FCP 1.6.5. I am unable to render to a drive that has plenty of room to hold the render. I can not export either. It starts out unbearably slow and then I get an error message saying the render or the export can not be completed. I have tried moving the cache to a different drive and also moving the video files and project file to another drive.


My 15" MacBook Pro has a 2.3 Ghz 8-Core Intel Core i9. I appreciate any advice you may have.

It sounds like you disabled SIP for some reason and need to re-enable it?

Regarding your original problem, how is the external drive formatted that you are attempting to export onto? Apple says only HFS+ or APFS drives are supported. No ExFat, NTFS, etc. Format storage devices for Final Cut Pro, Motion, and Compressor - Apple Support


I would recommend enabling Apple security software in System Preferences. And if you don't have a backup routine, setting up a TimeMachine drive.
