I can't import media in Final Cut Pro

Several times it happened that importing clips to library fails.

First time I deleted file from Originals folder and then wanted to import again — fails.

Second time I saw missing clip in Clips and deleted in app, and I can't import it again. There was imported file in Originals, I tried to move it to another location, rename and reimport — fails.

It seems like library thinks that file is already there or smth like that. Can I force to rescan library somehow to renew clips available? Rebuild doesn't help.

Thank you!

no, no project contains this clip, it was newly imported. I tried to import within single project.

and in that case it would be unavailable to import to another event, but I did
