Effects Browser does not show up and causes FCPX not to run properly
Hi all,
I want to describe a strange situation that has been happening to my FCPX (10.0.7) since the installation of the Neat Video plugin.
The first time I run FCPX after the installation, it opened without problems, altough I was no longer able to open the "Effects Browser". In fact, when I tried to click on the Effects Browser button, instead of opening that, it opened another browser (to be precise, the last browser that had been used before). In other words, the Effects Browser no longer showed up.
Moreover, once I quitted FCPX in that state, when I tried to run again FCPX, it freezed on the "Restoring window layout" status and didn't go forward.
I tried all the possible solutions (and, of course, I did uninstall Neat Video):
- Delete the layout folder > Didn't work
- Uninstall FCPX and re-install it > Worked for the first run, but if I try to open the Effects browser, it does not show up again and another browser appears. Furthermore, on subsequent lauches of the program, it freezes in the the same status mentioned above.
- Deleting Preferences > It allows me to let FCPX lauch properly without uninstalling and re-installing it in case I tried to open the Effects browser in the previous session.
- Repairing Disk Permissions > didn't change the situation
Any ideas of the issues and the effective way to overcome the problem? I would like, at least, have the effects broswer available, regardless of Neat Video, of course.
Thanks.
Stefano.
