Final Cut keeps crashing

I have a new macbook pro M2 with ventura 13.2. FCPX in the last version.

But it crashes all the time. It crashes when importing, when adding videos to the timeline, when editing....every step I take is a nightmare. I try to import everything to a new library and start all over again. But every time the same problem.

What can be the problem?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.15

Final Cut Pro X constantly crashing whenever I tried to edit clips after updating to Ventura I've just updated my macbook Pro to Ventura 13.2, and ever since my Final Cut Pro X 10.6.5 will crash whenever I try to remove my clips. Right now the only work around is not to remove and clip from my video and only disable it but still the load time is terrible, every edit takes FCP to load for 10+ seconds... I usually work on an external hard drive (Samsung T7), it still happens even I moved my library to my desktop. See if anyone can help on this.

Final cut keeps crashing on export. Urgent help needed! I tried deleting preferences. Tried restarting. Played the movie in Final Cut and there were no issues. I see no problematic clips with bright red exclamation point. When I try to export, it says "preparing to share" with a progress bar, then crashes. Tried a few different formats, no luck. Mac Studio, OS 12.6.3, FCPX 10.6.5

Final Cut Pro 11.0.1 crashes every time I remove attributes (Shift + Command + X) Every time I use Shift + Command + X, "remove attributes" from clips, for example; I want to delete a colour grade from a selection of clips, FCP 11 crashes as soon as I press 'remove'. It never did this pre FCP11, but now its every time. I have tried all the usual's like deleting preferences, updating, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

Start by updating the OS. 13.3 of you can. If you’re using AU plugins for FCP or other apps don’t update to 13.3.1. Updating is especially important if you have events with over 500 items in them.
