Final Cut Pro 11 begins a new chapter for video editing on Mac. Learn more >
Hello, since yesterday, I am unable to export a Final Cut Pro project that I used to be able to export without any problem. I am doing a second conversation because in the other conversation the Etrecheckreport is uploaded in the upper messages and not at the end of the conversation as it should be (I don't know why) and Tom Wolsky doesn't seem to see it. Thank you in advance for your help.

Try exporting to the system drive. You should have the space. Then more the exported file to the My Passport.
ExFAT really doesn’t work well with FCP. It wants APFS or HFS+.
Hello, I must add that I have tested other final pro projects and I encounter no problems with exporting (I have not deleted the preferences). Only this project does. But it didn't before and I haven't made any changes to it. It is a 45mn project shot in 4K. I have made an export in 4K without any problems but I was trying to export it in 1080p and it doesn't work. Which information would you need? Thank you for your help.
Just seen your original post and it looks as though you think there is a problem with that specific project.
If that is the case, Etrecheck will not help as it deals with the Mac not the apps.
Try deleting the preferences, though if it is a project problem it probably won't help.
You should remove Chrome completely and its keystone daemons. https://chromeisbad.com/
Turn off MalwareBytes. Run it to check the system when you want otherwise it needs to remain off.
Where are you exporting to? Can you export to the system drive?
How is the My Passport drive formatted?
I have Chrome? I thought I had deleted it. But I will delete it completely.
As I said, it is the only project I have problems exporting. And actually, I exported it without any problems yesterday morning but I tried to export it in 1080p, instead of 4K and the export is failing (however, I have tried again to export it in 4K and it doesn't work). I am exporting it (like all the other projects which are exporting without any problems) on one of my external drive. My Passport drive is formatted in Exfat (because for work, as all my coworkers are on PC, they needed to be able to use it and check my rushes) but I have heard it is not good for FCP, so my new external drive is formatted in APFS. But the one I am trying to export to in formatted in Exfat.
Yes, that is why I format all my new external drives in AFPS. I have learned the lesson 😅 What I don't understand is that I have exported this project many times before on this external drive formatted in ExFat and it worked. So I don't understand why suddenly it didn't. Thank for your help anyways. You have made my day.
Have you deleted the preferences?
Exactly how and what are you trying to export?
So what would be the solution to understand why it doesn't want to export that specific project. What should I be looking at inside of Final Cut Pro?
Indeed. It worked. Thank you. Why is that? I have still 1 To on my external drive.
Why is my Final Cut Pro export operation failing?
