Q: FCPX 10.0.6 crashing repeatedly.

FCPX 10.0.6 has crashed constantly today whilst it was trying to re render clips in my current project.

 

If I reload an old backup (1 month old) of 10.0.5 will this work with my events and projects? Even though they have been updated to work with 10.0.6.

 

I have read that there are old versions of the events backed up by the OS for this exact problem.

 

Failing that is there any way to get 10.0.6 working well?

 

Using OS 10.8.2 on a 15 MacBook Pro 3ghz dual core duo with 8gb RAM.

 

Thanks

MacBook Pro (15-inch Core 2 Duo), OS X Mountain Lion

    No offence meant, it was a genuine question. If I knew best I wouldn't be on this forum. Thanks for your help.

    It's actually a pretty major update. Are you running any third party software or pliugins?

    No third party software or plug ins.

    Could this update corrupt all of my previous projects?

    I don't see how it could do that. Does the application work with new projects, or is it completely not functional?

    Started a new project and copied and pasted clips from an old one, then rendered. It crashed.

     

    Had no problem with my Mac until the update.

     

    After FCPX crashes it causes either the Finder to crash or Safari a few minutes later.

    By 'crash' in this case I mean that the application is 'not responding' and that I have to Force Quit it.

    Hi, i have read this from Red Giant site maybe is useful if you have magic bullet looks or plural eyes:

     

    IMPORTANT UPDATE: Due to some last minute changes in XML formatting for FCPX 10.0.6 that we did not catch right away, if you update to 10.0.6, you will encounter issues while usingPluralEyes.  Our engineers are hard at work to get an out to you as soon as possible that solves this problem.  We’ll let you know as soon as the fix is ready. We are currently testing and re-evaluating other performance issues with Magic Bullet Looks in Final Cut Pro X  and will post updates when we have more information from our Engineering Team.

    Thanks, but I'm not using either.

    Another development, the App Store tells me I need to update FCPX. Obviously I already have, and I do indeed have 10.0.6 installed. I am asumming this is a glitch??

    I have tried one thing suggested to me.

     

    In the project pane click on the project and then go to FILE->delete project render file then delete all rendering files. This reprocess from 0 my background rendering but for now i'm ok.

    Hi

     

    I've already tried this method with no success. Thanks, good luck.

    Here's how things stand at the moment.

     

    The App Store informed me that FCPX needed upgrading even though I had already done this.

     

    I thought it can't make things worse, can it??

     

    So I upgraded again....

     

    Everything seems fine. Rendering with no problems. Even seems a bit faster then the previous version.

    I can only imagine that the first upgrade didn't install well. Who knows.

     

    I'm just glad that my work is not corrupted or incompatible.

     

    To recap, I have thrown away all render files, uninstalled FCPX and reinstalled, repaired permissions and disk countless times all to no avail. But re upgrading to 10.0.6 because the App Store insisted I had to upgrade again seems to have worked.

     

    Thank you to all those who have taken the time to help in this matter.

     

    I'll be back if everything goes belly up.

    Jeff

    Also happening here... at the beginning it said it was a plugin but I ended deleting them all and FCPX still crashes all the time and its making Safari crash aswell

     

    I don't know what's happening nowadays at apple... they should test the software more and more before they release it.

     

     

    here is where I get:  

    Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)

    Exception Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at 0x0000000000000000

    Final Cut Pro is making Safari crash? I don't think it can do that.

    Why do you think that Final Cut Pro is closing Safari? I cannot see how it can do that. The applications are sandboxed. The only way is if you are playing video on Safari in some weird format and are trying to use the same format, which isn't supported, in FCP, and even then I don't think one application can crah another the way you say.
