Final Cut Pro Video Won’t Export

You said before that you were exporting to Downloads, but now you’re saying you are not sure.

It is unlikely that the export will be to Downloads unless you explicitly selected that folder.

If you choose Share and then Next, the default location is probably the one used last time-which one is it?

Also, in Finder you may do a search using the name, size (e.g. greater than 1GB) and date created (e.g. within last day or two). If the file exists you should find it.

If you use Save Only you are asked to name the file and select a location to save it. Please post screenshots of what you’re doing. Opt-Cmd-4 lets you drag a box across an area of the screen, makes a snapshot, and saves it to the Desktop.

If you see your system drive on the desktop select it and press Cmd-I to show information about the drive. Post a screenshot.

By default your videos are saved in the Movies folder.

Also, after the export begins open the background tasks window. Click the progress dial in the toolbar at the top of the window. Watch the progress until it’s completed.

What are the project properties? How long is it? What export settings are you using? Where exactly are you exporting to? How big is your system drive and how much free space (not available space). Please answer all the questions.

Describe what you are doing to export the Project.

It's in your Users/Your name folder.

And when you look in your Downloads folder you see nothing?
