Help, Logic won’t open my project! It looks like something is open, but I lost the project.

You probably haven’t lost your project, and I would guess that Logic is open, just not the main workspace. Luckily, that is an easy fix.

Fig. 1

First, make sure Logic is the active application (see Fig. 1) by looking for “Logic” in the upper left-hand corner of your screen.

You have two options: (1) you can either use the keyboard shortcut Command-1

Or, (2) select Window > Open Main Window (Fig. 2) from the drop-down menu

My FCP X timeline looks crazy, what have I done? (Precision Editor, that’s what!)

FCP X Precision editor gives greater detail on available media (handles) in your project timeline.

Many times, students accidentally open FCP X’s precision editor. This happens when you double-click an edit point. You may be interested in learning more about the precision editor, or you might just want your normal timeline back.

The escape key is the quickest way to close the precision editor.

To return to the traditional editing control in the Timeline, simply double-click the edit point again or press the escape key. Now you’re back in business, never to be frightened again by the powerful precision editor!
