I can't open Final Cut Pro x after it crushed

I can't open anymore Final Cut Pro X after it crushed while I was editing footage for 10 minutes. Can you tell the reason and what could I do to resolve it?

Thank you

Maybe the Library or Project have become corrupt.


Hold down the option key as you launch FCP X and you should be given the choice of which Library to open.


Choose to create a new one.


If that doesn't work try these troubleshooting strategies.


Use this free app to trash the preferences. This should be the first thing you try when any problems occur.

2. With FCP X shutdown, hold down option key and select Go>Library>Application Support>Final Cut Pro . . . trash the Layouts Folder.



3. Open Disk Utility and Repair Permissions.



4. Trash FCP X using this free app and reinstall it.

5. 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.
