FCPX unable to open effects in motion5

in FCP X every time i right click on an effect to open in Motion 5 it reads " there was a problem making a copy of the effect the file could not be written" here is a screen shot.

Typical troubleshooting routine. Get "Preference Manager" free from Digital Rebellion to delete pref files for both FCP X and Motion 5. Run Disk Utility and "repair" all drives ("verify" is a waste of time). Run Software Update and check the Mac App Store to be sure all your software is up to date.

If you're running off an external drive, be sure it's formatted as Mac OS Extended Journaled.

ok i uploaded pref manager. do i check the fcpx and motion 5 box then press trash? im a bit nervous. lol

Yes, just don't trash for any other app, and NOT for the that thing called "Shared files" or shared something. But for FCP X and Motion 5, sure, go for it, perfectly safe. The apps create new ones from scratch if they launch and don't find them, which is the point. To get rid of possible corrupted pref files.

Did it work?

I did have an error in my hard drive . I would like to thank you for guiding me to run a quick repair but that did not fix it. The error was on my part where I didn't have the permission to read and write on any folder is it was only read. Ugh! I did repair my hard drive thanks.

"Permissions" is not an error, but a configuration issue.

What exactly happened? What exactly did you do to fix your problem?

ok. i clicked on GO from the desk top then i clicked on HOME. clicked on the MOVIES folder then RIGHT CLICKED on the MOTION TEMPLATE folder GET INFO. at the very bottom where it reads SHARING and PERMISSION i changed it from READ ONLY to READ & WRITE. now everything works like a charm. once again i thank you for taking the time out to help me.
