TThis may work unless the library has been effected by trying the backup, which I'm surprised is not working.
CLose the application. Open the library bundle and move the flexolibrary file to the trash. Relaunch the application and open the library.
Thank you for your reply. If i understand corecly you meen to delete the back up project and to open again the appliction.
I dont know what is library bundle , now i delete the back up project from the ''libraries'' .
My project was in folder AUSTRIA 600D, and now that folder (event) is emty. and all video files moved (i dont know how) in folder AUSTRIA TIMELAPSE 1.
But i cant find the project.... I m going to lose my mind!!!!!
The difference in my folders (events) is that the main folder AUSTRIA 600D is without the star in front of the folder (WHY?)
what do you meen with '' flexolibrary file to the trash '' Where is the flexolibrary ? Sorry for that, i am begginet in fcp and i dont know a lot yet !
also i open this project , the other 2 are from back up...
There are two separate problems here I think.
Close the application.
The library is the file with the icon with four stars somewhere on your computer called Austrian Alps 2015. Find it, right-click on it, and select Show package contents. That opens the library bundle. In there is a file called CurrentVersion.flexolibrary file. Move that to the trash. Relaunch the application. May work, may not at this stage.
Second problem Austria Timelapse 1. There's no project in that event. What's the name of the project? How long is the project? Switch to list view so we can see what's in there and you can tell use what's supposed to be in there.
What do you see when you open yesterday's backup?
The drive with the library seems to be New Volume. What kind of drive is it? How is it connected? How is it formatted?
So i deleted the CurrentVersion.flexolibrary file, reboot the application and now the resut is that n the picture... the folder AUSTRIA 600D is missing
I had only one project, if i remember good the name of the project was AUSTRIA ALPES 2016. I create the project about 2 weeks ago.
In the AUSTRIA TIMELAPSE 1 has mp4 files and now there are video files from folder AUSTRIA 600D (MOV files from canon dslr). This folder does not exist any more. All files are in an external HDD USB3 and the hard disk has NTFS format.
When i opend the yestarday back up i saw all video files but the status was media offline.
Also look at the folder ''Show package contents '' , there is the folder AUSTRIA 600D and if i open the foler i can see all the original files.
If i delete the CurrentVersion in folder AUSTRIA SEQ (There was the project) is there a possibility to open again the project?
Also i tryed to load a back up file again (an older one) and for some reason it can not relink the files. The files are the same that used before.
The project name is AUSTRIA SEQ. Thanks for your help
The backup looks in a better state. The original library can't be rescued at this point. You might have to reimport the clips and rebuild the project. You should have all the information there, but you will have to manually match it up.
Thank you for your answer Tom.
What do you meen to rebilt the project ? to edit again ? or to import the files again and the project will be appear ?
TThe project may reappear when you reimport but it's not likely. You will probably have to re-edit using the existing project information, clip names and timecode as a guide.
ok i see. Thanks for your time, i appreciate it.
Have a nice time 🙂 It was my first bad luck with FCP, usualy i used to use AVID.
Thanks a lot
FCPX Lost my project
