All Projects and Clips in Browser disappeared

First thing is to do is shutdown and restart your Mac.

Then, open FCPro with the Option-Command keys pressed.

This will allow you to re-set the FCPro Preferences.

Then re-open your Library you were working in.

Default Library Path is as shown:

I noticed that ALL of the projects and clips in the browser were gone -- blank screen.

Please follow the advice given by Alchroma. It should be there if you check where you originally saved the library. Getting a beach ball does not mean deleting the library. It is saved unless you manually delete it.

If you cannot open it, please use the backup file in the movie folder:Backups. Make it a habit to take backups on a regular basis and set up Time Machine.

FYI: FCPro creates auto backups every 15 minutes or so while you work.

Also having a Time Machine backup on another drive is wise.

If I’m working on something important I will manually copy a backup to a separate hard drive, or two, with everything on it just in case my Mac goes down.

Backups are like insurance. No one likes the process of acquiring and paying for it but if you need it in the case of a disaster, it makes the effort all worthwhile.

I appreciate your help, Al. I have lots of backup space to save it. Best wishes!
