hello,

I had a add-on which allowed to hide FCPX projects, so this hidden projects where never updated to past 10.1.

Is there any way to convert open the projects in the latest version of FCPX?
The projects are from November 2013 so not sure what exact version of FCPX this was but.

I have all original media and the CurrentVersion.fcpevent but FXPX wont open it.

Is there any way to open this older FCP files?

Thanks a lot

Steve

If it's a pre-10.1 event or project, it cannot be opened by FCP. It has to be updated. The Projects and events folders have to be in the appropriate folders for FCP to recognize them when you use File>Update Project and Events.

Start reading here about updating from pre-10.1 to post 10.1.

A lot more has changed since then, but this should get you started.
