I just started having this problem. I've tried trashing prefs, re-setting permissions, re-booting and nothing works. I did see a suggestion on another site to log in using another user account. This did get rid of the problem but I couldn't see the most recent project I was working on.
I guess re-nstalling Final Cut X is next. Any new thoughts from anyone?
If you are having a problem in one user account and not the other, then it is very unlikely that reinstalling FCP X will fix anything.
It is no surprise that your project did not appear if you were using your system drive: your projects and events are stored in your Movies folder, inside your home folder, so another user will not see that.
I would go back to the regular user, delete preferences (use Preference Manager, from Digital Rebellion to do that), and delete the Layouts folder (in ~/Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro; hold the option key down and click the Go menu in the Finder to acces the Library folder; then navigate down to Application Support, then Final Cut Pro and trash the Layouts folder therein).
