Hard drive was ejected, project missing. was created by seanjm
Hi guys, cat pulled my harddrive out from the computer, upon re-opening fpcx 10.2 I have the little yellow exclamation mark on my library, all the media is still there, all the other projects that use that media are stil there - just the one project i was working on when the cord got pulled has dissapeared.
I did 'show package contents' on the library via the finder and it appears a folder with "CurrentVersion.fcpevent" is still there, but for some reason not showing up in my library.. so it seems the data is intact.
Anyone know of anyway to bring the project back into final cut pro x? Re-editing this one from scratch is going to be a bit of a nightmare.
Cheers

You will probably have to go to a library backup. Unfortunately drive disconnection is probably the most common cause of project corruption.

do you know if / where there'd be an auto backup?

Library backups are normally stored in a folder in Movies. They can be accessed from inside the application. File>Open Library>From Backup.
