Computer crash, warning on timeline and now inaccessible

Hello, thanks for the help.

I was working on FCPx on a timeline and my computer crashed. Upon starting it up again the timeline I was working on is now in its own folder entitled "No Data". The timeline that I was working on is listed in there but there is a yellow triangle next to it and it will not open. Also, in the Event there is also a yellow triangle icon. Please see screenshot. Its not good to lose an entire project timeline, please help.

Thanks,

Justin

NNo Data is not a folder. It's a date stamp. Your clips are grouped by date. In the action popup in the toolbar set group clips to none. The item with the triangle is not a project; it looks like it's a compound clip. What exactly were you doing? You shouldn't be editing a project in a compound. You might need to see if you have a recent back that you can use.

Also, the timeline you were editing seems to be that of a compound clip, not a project.
