FCPX began freezing up when opening.
I have followed apples recommended removal tech of FCPX and Reinstall...still doesn't work.
Have moved all events and projects out of original folders and still doesnt work.
I need help.
Thanks

If you haven't done it already, trash the preferences with this free app.

There is something wrong with this forum as the link above did not work.

There seems to be something wrong with this as well so you will have to type the link into your browser.
I have deleted preferences several times. This has not helped.
You've moved events and projects. Trashed prefs. When you launch the app what exactly happens? At what point does it freeze in the launch process? Does the pointer freeze? The computer?
Please give complete specifications of your computer and system including connected devices.
1. App opens and then when I try to do anything the rainbow ball begins to spin and it locks up
pointer is frozen when ball is spinning in the app only
the rest of the computer works fine during this process

Did you download the app and trash the preferences?
That is the first thing to try.
It sounds as though you have some corrupt video or image files in your Event Folders. Are you certain there are no Events in the Final Cut Events folder on any of your hard drives?
If there are, move them to another (temporary) folder so that they don't open on launching FCP X.
What happens now?
If this fails (or if you don't have anything in the Events Folder) create a new (admin) user in Preferences and open FCP X from that account.

This app worked great for me - my events would fail to load - the progression bar would come up and then just freeze up FCX. Trashing the preferences with this app solved the problem.
