I've just downloaded Final Cut Pro X (10.1.1) and it continues to crash, losing all of my imported videos. The same thing kept happening with the Trial version. Any suggestions on how to fix the issue?
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)
You need to give full specs for the video formats and projects.
In the meantime these troubleshooting strategies might help.
Use this free app to trash the preferences. This should be the first thing you try when any problems occur.

2. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.
3. Trash FCP X using this free app and reinstall it.

If these 3 measures don't work, create a new User Account (Admin) in System Preferences and try running FCP X from that as it sometimes works miracles.

Thank you so much for the troubleshooting information! It worked!
Which bit?
Or did you just throw everything at it?
I did throw everything at it. By the time I went to the Apple discussions page, I had already tried the free app you suggested. Apparently, one item in my trash would not empty, so I needed to force a restart. Once the mac restarted, I ran the app, again, and it showed an update to FCP, ie., Final Cut Pro X Supplemental Content. After successfully emptying the trash and updating, it hasn't crashed since. Thank you! You help prompted me to give the app another try, and look a little deeper. Thank you!
