Hi Guys this happened to me a few times now and it's starting to bug me!
So a client has given me a lacie drive with his rushes on.
1 folder with A7S II footage in and 1 folder with FS7 footage in.
I have copied this folder to my desktop.
Then opened a library and imported both folders into labelled events.
Waited until all importing and rendering is done and edited the 1st of 3 Projects.
Go to share the Project and all options greyed out - checked everything.
Nothing needs rendering, the project has the clapperboard and no nasty bits of media.
So exit the Library and reload the Library and all the fs7 material bar 3 is missing.
I can see it in the folder but FCPX can't find it???????

Any ideas - going nuts....

UPDATE: so certain files in the rushes folder will not import properly - I have no green Original files option and 2 red triangles for optimised and proxy. Any ideas??? Are they corrupted? I am at present putting one of the files through compressor.

This one is a mystery. My first idea is a possible permissions problem. Can you use Finder to verify your permissions to the files? Do a Get Info on all of them, inc'l any folders and ensure you have read/write access.

I think it is an issue with 8 files out of about 200 in the xdroot files. May be a bad card in the fs7?
I have no idea why but I sorted it by putting them through compressor. They are huge but they are there and fcpx is happy!
Thanks for the response.

Not the same problem, but, it's FS7 and import problem. May be someone faced this.
