Import problem II (cannot import anything)

HI,

Since upgrade FCPX 10.2 yesterday, I cannot import anything from my Camera or from my SD Card. The media import window seem to work but when I hit the «Import» button, nothing happen.


I can see and play my clip in the Import windows.


I can drag and drop thing from the finder but my movie from my Sony NXCAM AVCHD cannot be drag and drop.


I'll try to import my media from Sony «software tools»... but i prefer work with FCP.


I tried in a new project, in new event and in a new library but nothing work.


Thanks for your help !


Mathieu

I solved the problem for myself.

It is a lousy solution, but it worked.

The import problem was driving me crazy to the point that I had to try something drastic. I moved my active projects to another computer and completely wiped FCPX from my computer. EVERYTHING to do with FCPX, from preferences to associated apps - I deleted (it was a desperate move). I then repaired permissions (which I just did by habit) and then reinstalled FCPX 10.2.1 from scratch. Low and behold, the import button functionality returned.
