Compressor 4.2.1 Stuck on "waiting"

Thanks for the response back! I am exporting Master Files (.mov) from FCPX and then dropping them into Compressor for batching out 3 different formats : 1080mp4, 1080wmv, 480m4v.

I have deleted the entire Compressor Folder from the following path : HD/Users/Me/Library/ApplicationSupport/Compressor

*note: I take out my settings folder before deletion to save my custom formats and drop them back in when new Compressor folder refreshes on restart.

I also delete the preference file "com.apple.Compressor.plist" in the following path : HD/Users/Me/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Compressor.plist

Since the only other Compressor version I have tested on this New iMac is 4.1.3 I don't have any qmaster folders to deal with. I also go into the Compressor App Preferences when open and try to hit the following buttons with not much luck in the Reset Cue option : Reset Jobs, Cancel Jobs, or Repair Compressor.

When trying any or all of the above options I can usually get it to work for at least a video before getting stuck on "waiting" or no progression if it does start to process for a minute or two on the next movie. I have not had any issues on my MacbookPro with the same OSX and Compressor Apps,etc but got this new computer since my new job requires me to create and upload videos everyday hence my frustration with this :/

Really don't want to have to do a clean system install but if it comes down to it I suppose that is a last option. Thanks again as any ideas or help is very much appreciated!

@RussH - Wow! So I did just that and took out the WMV and did a repair and kaboom =D It actually started working without having to delete any preferences or compressor folder. So with that said why do you think the WMV is causing it to get stuck on "waiting" and any idea on how to make a WMV work since I do need one of those formats for each video. Maybe flip4mac is causing some issue so I could try doing a re-install there? Happy to know at least the issue is slowly but surely being figured out as knowing what piece of the puzzle is causing the problem is more than half the battle 🙂

@JamesCude : Actually I just saw that updates were available and am going to update Compressor, FCPX and Pro Video Formats to see if any of that helps. Thank you for the heads up!
